Who: Elena Gilbert + you!
Broadcast: Video
Action: Starstruck if you want
When: now!!!

I was told that these augments [she gestures to her own and feels a little stupid for doing so because everybody knows what she's talking about (hopefully)] can alter memories. Does anybody have any more specific information on that?

Like how far back in your memory can it reach? How much can it change? How long does it last?

[...You know. Asking for a friend.]

[forgetyourusedtobe]

Only for a few months. It feels like longer though.

[takeabow]

Yeah, I can understand that.

I'm Nova, by the way.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

Elena. It's nice to meet you, Nova.

Which ship are you on?

[takeabow]

First Breath.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

I'd really like to know who came up with the names for these things.

[takeabow]

[ puts her hands up defensively ]

Don't look at me. I'm new.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

[Elena laughs a little.]

I guess it's not the weirdest. At least my ship's name is a little normal sounding. It's Starstruck.

[takeabow]

Seems like a bad omen, out here.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

I...I had not actually thought of it that way...

[takeabow]

[ bad attempt at a joke. abort. abort ]

...Sorry. Just a bad joke. I didn't— I don't think it's a sign or anything.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

Oh, no, I know! [Smiling now. Smiling because she got it.] I just didn't think of it that way before.

...Although honestly, probably with Atroma, they might have meant it that way.

[takeabow]

Then they probably would've called this Last Breath.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

That's a good point. But they could have also gone for Bad Breath?

[takeabow]

[ that elicits a smile from her ]

It's like you've smelled their laundry piles. Eesh.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

[Elena laughs.]

Moral of the story: it could probably be a lot worse.

[takeabow]

Yeah, it really could be.

Why are you asking about memories, anyway?

[forgetyourusedtobe]

There's someone here who remembers me, but I don't remember them.

[takeabow]

...Oh. Yeah.

That's hard.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

I don't have any frame of reference for them in my life.

[takeabow]

What do you mean?

[forgetyourusedtobe]

They're not from my world at all.

[takeabow]

Where do they know you from?

[forgetyourusedtobe]

Somewhere else. Like this place. I didn't...really ask too many specifics.

[takeabow]

That happened with me, here. A girl here, Ino, said she met me somewhere else. It's weird. I don't really like it, but I guess there are a lot of possibilities. It doesn't necessarily mean your memories got screwed up.

[forgetyourusedtobe]

Wait, how did she meet you somewhere else but your memories are fine?
