I mean, it's like... they didn't exist, and suddenly they did, right? Sometimes people say they get lapses of a song briefly stuck in their head even if they hated it, but it's not the same, since that requires you to have actually heard it before.

But this thing most definitely... never happened. So it latches onto a similar but not exact experience.

[ Ritsu was starting to put two and two together, in regards to that garbled mess of a Retrospec welcoming message he received at the beginning of the month. ] Is it okay to ask what you "remembered" in yours?

[momentaryspring]

Mostly just normal, everyday stuff. You know, training and dealing with challenge letters. Walking home in the rain.

[ Yeah, normal everyday stuff! The kind of stuff that normal people did e v e r y d a y... ]

Except for that one thing with Bigfoot.

[esperimental]

Challenge letters?

[ Are you some kind of hooligan Ryoga. Does he have to keep his eye on you even if you're way outside of his jurisdiction. ]

... Bigfoot... What happened there? Did it have a clear face?

[momentaryspring]

I don't know, I was just minding my own business. I'm not even sure it was Bigfoot, because...

[ Ryoga frowned a little in thought; he hadn't really tried to remember all that clearly since he figured no one would be interested. ]

Well, what does that matter? The point is, everything else was pretty normal.

[esperimental]

It matters because everything else was pretty normal.

[ Still, he's not about to badger this guy for information he doesn't immediately believe--not even after Chocobo-horse swapping--so he'll just go down that line of "normal stuff" for now. ]

So what makes you doubt the normal stuff, if they're already everyday to you as you say? I'll hear you out and not judge.

[ Judging just Bigfoot. ]

[momentaryspring]

I don't, really. Or at least I didn't, before people started bringing up their own recollections.

The only thing that was odd about them is that I'm remembering more things than usual. But that could be due to the changing of the seasons.

[esperimental]

Oh... Yeah, I ended up assuming someone was simply lacking sleep before I got a recollection of my own. That was my bad.

[ As for changing of seasons that sounds... vaguely romantic?? Is Ritsu now going to wonder if Ryoga is a punk who also feels love for love. --He's probably just watched too much TV lately while trying to sharpen his English pronunciation. Maybe he's lacking sleep too. ]

Spring is a time for beginnings after all, out with the old and in with the new. But it's not bad to wish things were just... normal, right?

[momentaryspring]

Well, normally yes. But I absolutely loathe some of the other things that have been happening lately.

I had to fill out a Mad Lib just to try and talk to someone at that stupid Retrograde company, and no one was even inside! Infuriating.

[esperimental]

[ He's not sure he caught most of that. ]

"Retrograde"?

[ Oh, right, the network thing's company building. He'd heard about it being suspiciously empty before. ]

It makes you believe even more they have something to hide, doesn't it? Why else would they not have normal staffing like normal companies?

[momentaryspring]

It would certainly explain why their terrible program never works.

[ Rackum frackum stupid Retrospec. ]

It's all a shell game! I bet they're laundering money or something.

[esperimental]

Ahh, given what we've seen so far I'd be impressed if they managed to get that much faith from any investors.

I'm inclined to thinking "spoiled rich people with too much free time" at the moment, myself.

[ Unless...!! ] It's the perfect cover-up... hm.
