Been scrolling through this thing for hours now.

This really needs a filtering function so I don't have to scroll through all the "this can't be real" or "this must be a hoax" bullshit. My wheel can't take the abuse.

So, right. It's too late in the night... Or too early maybe? To process all of this crap.

I'm going to bed.

Tell me why I should care to get involved or how I can avoid these pluses/echoes/whatever you are all calling them.

...Don't tease me about it. I swing bats, not vault off of walls trying to do that parkour thing.

voice

[ex_elude798]

It's better than some things people experience.

[He'd sooner wish more parkour on Van than...well. The crap he remembers]

voice

[darkcharge]

[ you're awfully defensive... ]

Guess I did get lucky there.

voice

[ex_elude798]

[He doesn't want to talk about his "memories," that's for sure]

Hope it's always like that.

voice

[darkcharge]

...

You'll probably be the first to know.

voice

[ex_elude798]

Probably.

voice

[darkcharge]

So.

How long.

voice

[ex_elude798]

Since July.

voice

[darkcharge]

July.

voice

[ex_elude798]

That's right.

[On his birthday, no less. But he doesn't expect Van to remember that date]

voice

[darkcharge]

[ oh he knows that date. ]

Guess it wouldn't be hard for you to be tight lipped.

voice

[ex_elude798]

It's not something I really discuss, no.

voice

[darkcharge]

Not even to tell me what really happened?

voice

[ex_elude798]

At the risk of putting you in danger? No.

voice

[darkcharge]

Already in danger or did you forget that?

voice

[ex_elude798]

Wasn't the case at the time.

voice

[darkcharge]

Nothing's stopping you from telling me now.

voice

[ex_elude798]

The difference is that I'm not the factor that decides your involvement.

voice

[darkcharge]

What? You don't think that's a good enough reason?

voice

[ex_elude798]

That's not what I mean.

I didn't tell you because I didn't want to involve you if it was avoidable.

voice

[darkcharge]

I know.

I'm not even talking about that!

voice

[ex_elude798]

Then I don't follow.

voice

[darkcharge]

You didn't want to say before because you thought I would be put in danger. Okay. Got that. Still think it's a load of shit, but at least I can respect it.

But now? Whether I get actively involved or not, I'm in the same danger either way. There's no reason not to tell me now.

voice

[ex_elude798]

About how I got injured, or something else?

[He isn't sure Van]

voice

[darkcharge]

YES, that.
