[Some of us are covered in fruit, some of us aren't, but there was a trial so naturally, as the sun sets and stars sprinkle the sky in odd colors, it's time for a memory mingle!]

[ That is a very odd reaction ]

... I haven't set anything on fire yet.

[voreaciously]

N-no, not that, um. You are doing well. Um.

[she is just embarrassed.]

...That was simply unexpected.

[spectacularluck]

I know I haven't been the best in terms of team bonding, and all of that.

But it looks like we are stuck together, so ... might as well.

[she starts to fix what was her perfectly coiffed hair.]

You do not have to justify yourself to me at all. I am sure you have been fine. You seem to get on with everyone else, as far as I can tell.

[which she doesn't know too much about, just the barest snippets because she hermits or goes out far and away a lot]

[spectacularluck]

Why don't you? Any reason why you keep on your own until your teammates get to experience the thrill of torture?

[voreaciously]

...I can make myself forget about seeing that, I think.

[spectacularluck]

—What?

[voreaciously]

If I paid for it, or perhaps...

[spectacularluck]

Okay, take a step back.

If I cared that much I would have paid double to see my memories in private. It's fine. And even taking that aside, you shouldn't just erase your memories. That's crazy.

[voreaciously]

[eeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhh

she doesn't look that bothered]

I did not want my knowing to be uncomfortable for you. It is not for me to know. I would have been fine with it.

[spectacularluck]

I don't know how I feel about the memories yet.

I know I lived those, but they seem completely disconnected events. I have a family? I have a wife and a kid? It doesn't feel real. If I have a kid why am I putting on a costume and — threatening men in sewers, or infiltrating organizations and being tortured.

I mean, I know why, I was protecting my family and my friend.

But it feels unreal.

Which is to say I don't know if I'm uncomfortable with it.

[voreaciously]

I see.

[Well, you're not part of a team until you witness your teammates get tortured so w/e]

I suppose to e may help. And additional context.

[spectacularluck]

I don't think it's too bad if we get along for the time being, anyway ... so I'd say for now, it's okay that you know.

[voreaciously]

...You may come to regret it.
