[Have you heard this voice before? It's probably hard to tell considering how absolutely toneless her voice is as she's speaking. Or maybe that's the dead giveaway? Either way it's pretty obvious this is going to be the opposite of a long emotional monologue.]

If I were to attempt to induce one of the memories, visions, whatever they are.

What would be the most effective way? I'm not stupid enough to think there's a foolproof way to make it happen, but I'd like to know if there's something I can do to increase my chances.

[A long pause, either deliberating on what to say, or whether or not to just stop talking.]

I had my first echo well over a month ago. Nothing since then.

[Oh shit it's this girl again. Maybe he'll get through to her this time?? More importantly, maybe he'll find out if she's a serial killer or not for sure.]

It's not really something I believe can be induced. All a matter of fate, as usual.

Interesting you've only had one, though. I've had two over the course of my first week. [He's not bragging. Okay yes he is.]

[Perhaps she'll find out the same??]

You again.

"Fate."

Seems more like luck, to me. There's a cause for everything. I can find out what it is. Something to help.

. . .

Two in one week?
That's nice. [ooh she jelly]

Haha, no, I'm sure my second one would have to be absolutely outstanding luck if it isn't fate.

But that neither of my experiences were negative or had ill effect on me, that may just be good luck. It seems some people that trigger these visions tend to come out anxious or outright traumatized. I wouldn't be quick to try and trigger another, myself, out of that concern. Keep that in mind and tread lightly.

I thought you didn't care about them.

I don't think it's much different from a nightmare.

I had a nightmare that I murdered someone.

That doesn't mean I feel any guilt or distress about the murder. The murder wasn't real. I don't suffer any consequences. I'm not going to be traumatized by something that didn't even actually happen. Not me.

I don't.

. . .

But I want to be able to talk to you about yours. Not as an outsider.

I've been staying away.

Does it still cause gigglefits?

Yeah. But if you can find an excuse to keep to yourself for a few hours till it passes, that's a freebie echo right there.

Maybe I won't have any more.

[Hahahahahaha]

It doesn't feel like a dream. Trust me.

Dreams are fleeting, even most nightmares won't affect you for more than a few minutes after waking. These feel real, they feel vivid and profound. My second came to me in the form of a dream, but I instantly recognized its true nature.

You would have to be incredibly skilled at disassociation to not be affected by such an experience.

...And why is it always murder with you?

"Free"?

Best case scenario usually isn't what happens.

I haven't observed any long-term side effects. So yeah, more or less.

I was in a car accident during my first echo. It was fine. [Mostly.]

Why are you so fixated on that? It was hypothetical.

Either way, you're lucky you're not getting them.

I don't want to be "lucky".

It isn't that I don't want to be left out.

But we do things together.

I don't know if I can truly believe it had no effect on you emotionally, but that's not my place to pass judgement and not my place to pry. Perhaps it is only because of my own disposition and the nature of them that I took my echoes so seriously.

You just...you mention murder a lot.

[You mean you're a fucking hippie weirdo.]

They're going to be as significant as you make them out to be.

I don't choose to do that.

I'll get one for sure? It happens to everyone, every time?

Making them out to be significant has brought me nothing but happiness...But I do understand I'm in the minority.

I don't mean to force my opinion. It's just something I feel very strongly about.

What happens when it comes back to bite you?

It makes you happy now.

It's very simple, really. I will be grateful for the happiness it once brought me.

You need to take these things for what they are and let the rest of the mystery unravel at its leisure.

Please stop.

I actually enjoy talking to you, you know. There's no point in being rude.
