Come on, come on heroes...! Come hither!

[ There's a playful giggle and the sound of splashing as the Mermaid's beach appears in the clearing. ]

Let's play a game...!

That's the opposite of convincing.

[Don't pry, don't pry, don't pry, don't pry is a mental chant right now, she needs to not have these talks WHILE CUDDLING, but at least focusing on NOT doing it keeps whatever her power is from going off. Maybe.]

But I mean, if it's a false memory, someone else looking at it might be able to tell? In theory?

[DON'T PRY.]

So you're saying you could see it and be able to tell if it's fake or not.

I don't know if I want to know. But not knowing isn't any better.

[daydreamshimmer]

Ppppprobably? I literally just discovered I could do this like an hour ago. But it's pretty potent telepathic ability. At the very least I'm familiar with illusions and the like, so I could look for things.

Better to not be surprised?

[spectacularluck]

Okay, okay. Can you give me some time to think about it? Before involving anyone else maybe it's best if I do take my memories. But it's a nice offer and I appreciate it.

[daydreamshimmer]

That's fine. Probably best. I need to experiment because I'm not exactly sure what set it off the first time so we should change subjects before it....does.

[spectacularluck]

That doesn't sound even a little bit reassuring. I hope you know that. And now I'm thinking about it even more.

[daydreamshimmer]

Listen, this game has been a wild ride of self discovery for me.

[Looking at his card.] Sing something. That should take your mind off it.
