[It's four in the morning. Do you know where your network is?]

Whoa.

Whoa.

Um. Hi. Looks like I'm numbered again. That was a weird feeling.

Lost your memories for a bit, did you?

Yeah. It was... [he tries to figure out how long, then gives up] ... a few months, anyway.

Can you describe the experience to me?

Well, I was asleep when it started, but it kind of felt like getting a new pulse, but... sort of different. And then I got all of my old pulses again, all at once.

How was life before you remembered? Just...normal? Do you remember anyone from the network interracting with you during that time?

Yeah. It was like I'd never had a number. Toward the beginning there was a little... fallout, I guess, from network stuff I'd done that I couldn't remember to make excuses for.

I'm... not sure about the other thing. There were a lot of network people I never knew face-to-face, and probably a lot showed up while I was... out. But I don't remember anyone trying to talk to me about network stuff, if that's what you mean.

I see. Even if they did you would probably just think they were crazy.

What a pain. I wonder why it happens...

Yeah... there's a lot I'd like to know about all of this.

Too bad for you, because it's probably not gonna happen any time soon.

It creeps me out, though. The forgetting.

u can get numbered more than once??? excuse me? wow no thx

I guess? I'd rather be like this, and know what's going on and be able to do something, than just sit around oblivious.

ya, I guess that's fair...

Yeah, this way I have a sword and some magic. Much better, even if it means a target.

[belatedly] I'm Fred, by the way.

[oh. right. names. Louis is so bad at this.]

wait really? lmao tell me more

nice to meet you, I'm Louis.

Yeah, not a lot of magic, but I can make rocks fall out of nowhere and do a little healing. The sword showed up when my mom... [he breaks off for a moment] ... when they killed her. And I guess I got some kind of experience for using it, too, somewhere.

Yeah, you too.

[Louis stares blankly at his phone, blinking, momentarily taken off guard entirely. what is even going on with this place]

oh wow. um, I'm sry 2 hear that....

):

[Louis stares at his sent message, and... feels like it's pretty lame. oops.]

Thanks.

[If there's one thing Fred's learned since it happened, it's that dwelling on that part of the past does no good. So after a moment:]

How about you? Any cool pulses? [Trying to sound cheerful is almost as good as the real thing, right?]

pulses? are those like those echo things?

sry I'm still kind of getting a feel for this place

I've only had 1 so far, if that's what ur talking about. I def wouldn't have described it as cool either lol

Yeah. Two words for the same thing. I like pulses better.

Oh. [Well, it's hard to tell from text, but Louis' pulse doesn't seem to upset him, so...] Wanna share anyway?

it does have a certain. um. energy to it. lol. I like it too.

it rly isn't that interesting... and it's kind of embarrassing. urs worth sharing at all?

My first? [Fred's voice drifts off a bit; it's a pretty strong memory, especially since he just re-experienced it.] I drowned.

Or, well, I remembered my other self drowning.

Again? Did you move away for awhile or are you one of those who just forgot?

No, I just forgot. My dad's been talking about leaving town, but we haven't done it yet.

[Hey, now Fred's got a good reason to not leave. Maybe that'll help with persuasion next time the idea comes up.]
