Yeah, it does. [ she frowns, trying to remember that poor other guy who is not a handsome black-haired protag. ] Actually there were... two other guys besides Rome boy? [ because I forgot tyson existed ] One had curly hair, the other was tall, that's about it.
Oh. So past-you had a harem of teenage boys that you traveled to weird and foreign places with. That's a little beyond suspicious, 'Beth. And I wonder if Thalia might know about the other two boys, too. I mean if all three of us are seeing the dark-haired kid then that probably means they're all connected somehow.
I'm more concerned about why you got a sphinx and we got a dragon when these things shouldn't even be real.
It was not a harem. [ she's blushing and cringing at the same time. damn you, luke. ] Maybe? It would help if we knew their names and not just... vaguely what they looked like.
I... don't even know. Maybe we were... tv actors and it was all fake. Or really imaginative. Or maybe it's just, fake.
Sounds like a harem anyway. [But okay, okay.] Maybe we'll learn that sooner than later. Worth a try to try and figure it out, you know?
And...the rest. [He frowns a little.] I could buy being an actor, actually. Like I did my own action sequences and that's why I know how to fight with a sword. But what're the chances that it happened to all of us?
[ sticks tongue out. it's not a harem!! ] Yeah, it would be. Might help us see if they live in Recolle, too?
I... don't even know. It didn't feel fake, like acting, either. But it makes more sense than the alternative. [ the alternative that dragons and sphinxes are real. ]
That's a good idea. I threw out the phone book that came in the mail but we can probably check online once we have names to match. [He shrugs then, not much more settled either.]
...I don't know. The rest makes sense, too. But maybe that's because of all of the memories I have back by now. It's happening...we're hitting the point we can't tell fiction from reality. Any ideas how to stop it?
... I didn't even know they still made those. [ get with the times, luke, they can just look at facebook? ]
I don't know. [ neither of them knows, welp. ] We just have to remain objective, and make sure we keep track of the fake memories so we don't... [ GO OFF THE DEEP END ]
I didn't either until it showed up at the bar. [SHRUG.]
...I've been sort of keeping track. The diary I got back might help, too, if I figure out how to read the dumb thing. I don't think a conspiracy board is going to help us with this one. [There's a frown.] If you remember anything you'll tell me? Just so we're clear.
I have a notebook, just for keeping track of how my memories correlate with each other. A timeline sort of. [ great now I have to make a comment all about annabeth's notebook that now exists somewhere gdi. ] There's probably a joke about you having a diary, which I won't make. Yeah, of course. You will too, right?
Of course you've already got a notebook started. [But there's fondness in his tone anyway despite being slightly worried.] The diary still has a lot of blank pages. I could use them to track everything else going on, but thanks for not making fun of my diary. [There's a pause.] Of course I will. Don't have much to hide.
Well, it seemed like a handy thing to have. [ SIGHS ] Huh. Interesting. I'll make fun of it later, if you want. [ she also. pauses, sort of regarding him for a second like she wonders if he's bullshitting her. because she's wondering if he's bullshitting her. ] Good, glad to hear it.
Of course it did, and you can't make fun of it when you're in it. [A thought.] You and Thalia really gotta stop worrying about that, you know. We're all fine and we're keeping each other up to date.
