[Hello network, have a rather tired and bedraggled-looking Fenn with a blanket around his shoulders, clearly shirtless underneath, a cup of tea curled in one hand.]

You know what can really put a crimp in your sex life?

[Yes, that is definitely a valid question to ask the network early in the morning. The kids can just... not listen, okay.]

Any takers? I mean, apart from these- [He effortlessly extends his foot-long claws and then retracts them again] -which I think can cut through metal and really were a problem for a while there?

I'm pretty sure none of you's gonna be able to guess, seeing as it's pretty specific, so I'll go ahead and tell you, how about that? And no, it ain't personal or dirty as such, just gross as shit.

[A pause, and he grimaces, one hand darting up to massage his left eye.]

It's when your lover kisses your eye in a kind of romantic gesture - bless his heart - and you end up with this... really damn vivid memory of having it gouged out and eaten. Like, the feeling of having your eye still partly attached and chewed loose? [A shudder.] Seriously, I ain't sure how much more messed-up shit I can take "remembering", or whatever it is we do.

[A loose shrug, teacup wobbling a bit.] Sorry to put y'all off your breakfasts, I just wanted to whine a bit. Carry on, I guess.

Hm. [ There's a brief pause before he continues. ] I think we met just at the beginning of things. Or just when things started to get really crazy. He was the one who told me about the network in the first place. [ His voice takes on an amused note. ] To be honest I thought him a bit crazy at the time. Little did I know, huh?

We... seem to be connected in who- or whatever we get these memories and abilities from, and while that's not the reason we ended up together now, I think it's what helped us notice each other that first night.

[In the background you can hear a murmur of:]

Well, that and the fact that I was naked and spinning around a pole. I mean, that's the sort of thing most people notice.

[ NOT ASKING THOSE KINDS OF DETAILS. ]

[ giving you props for dealing with someone that apparently has little to no shame. ]

Thank you for answering. I was curious since the chances of that sort of thing happening before all of this would be pretty low.

[ and he isn't sure if he would have been okay with the idea that they are drawn to people from their "former lives" without completely remembering them. too cliche. ]

[ He swears to god, one day Fay will manage to make him pass out from blushing or something. ]

Don't worry about it, it's not like it was overly personal or anything. Not that that's stopping some people. And while the chance might seem pretty low it still seems to be happening here from time to time. I think there's a married couple who presumably knew each other from before all this. And one of Fay's siblings turned up here for a little while, though she seems to have forgotten all about it now.

Also, I am so sorry about him. I would love to blame it all on the stress of everything but... yeah he's kind of always like this. You get used to it. Kind of.

Don't worry about it. I just wasn't prepared for it.

[ and really he's not some kid ~~yet~~. should be okay with hearing people who are blunt and honest. ]

Anyway... So just about anyone could turn out to have these "past life" issues.

[ There's a burst of laughter. ] I don't think anyone's prepared for him really. I sure as hell wasn't.

[ Youou is 26 years old and seems to be suffering from chronic blushing. Being a kid doesn't really have that much to do with it. ]

And yeah, pretty much. Let's just say I hope I never have to see any of my sisters on this blasted thing. They get into enough trouble as it is. [ Please excuse him, he has a bit of a sister complex. ]

It takes all kinds, as they say.

[ sisters. Nate is an only child so he doesn't know much about this sort of thing. ]

Older or younger?

Younger. All three of them. [ And even though he sounds absolutely exasperated with them, it's not hard to hear the adoration beneath. ]

How about you. Do you have anyone you really don't want to see here?

[ yes, he can tell. still can't relate all that well. ]

My mother, I suppose. I don't have a big family, so the likelihood of people I don't want to see here showing up is pretty low.
