[o h]

That's the kid? Shit. Sorry.

Indeed. He's in the majority of the memories I have, both good and bad.

What was so bad before getting him to merc you?

...Perhaps bad is not the word. Certainly very strange.

[He plays back a different memory.]

That some kinda simulation bullshit? What's going on?

Your guess is as good as mine, at this point. In all my other memories I have some idea of my thoughts and feelings during them - in this one there simply is nothing.

Maybe it's less a memory and more of a dream or something. Fuckin' freaky.

How have your memories been, thus far?

. . .haven't taken any yet.

Do you want to?

Of course I do! I just didn't wanna get distracted or end up a sad sack like the lot of you.

Not everyone's memories are unpleasant, shockingly enough.

If we're all fuckin' dead it's kind of the default, ain't it?

You could have a perfectly normal life up until an accident?

[Since it's hard to argue Bomb would have died of natural causes when he looks like a teenager.]

As if I'd die to something that stupid. [He'll die to something EVEN MORE stupid thank u very much--]

There's a shit ton of possibilities of what my life coulda been like, but some people here already know apparently.

Ah, I see. Have they told you anything...?

No cuz I said I'd kick their ass! Kept talking about some nerd they thought I was dating though.

I don't wanna take my memories too soon and end up just like how anyone's assuming. I'm my own damn person.

That's entirely reasonable. Even when you do take memories, you don't have to be the same person that you once were. Goodness knows many of us are trying not to be.

I'm badass no matter what, so I'm not concerned about that.

[weirdly has a lot of confidence in himself despite being Like This]

Oh, certainly. That was never in question.

[Reaches over to try to ruffle his hair.]

[full body bristle with something that sounds like a cross between a hiss and a growl in his throat, but. he allows it. He is just innately feral for whatever fucking reason.]

[Doesn't ruffle for too long, at least.]

Ah, I'm allowed affection? I feel honored.

Don't say stupid shit. We're teammates, so. Yeah.

I'm glad I'm on a team with you, Bomb.

I hope you didn't come all the way up here just to say sappy shit.

[but he's not refuting it.]
