Who: anyone!
When: Day 6, morning
Where: the lounge carriage (or, like, wherever, I'm not your boss)

[What's shakin', heroes? That sure was a trial last night, huh? What's on the agenda this morning-- still exploring, for new folks? Having team talks in light of having two trials'-worth of info on how this stuff is gonna go? Cooking something up in the public kitchen? Taking memories or testing out new powers? Playing with new purchases from the sparks shop? Just hanging out in the lounge? You do you; everyone's gotta find their own path on their magical interdimensional spacetrain journey.]

[Just exploring, actually. It's much harder to accept whatever the fuck is happening when you have your memories.

But she's never seen ...a moving picture before, even one that isn't a memory, and she stops abruptly when she sees ... through the eyes of someone clearly not on the train or on this dark world.]

Where... is that?

[grimpa]

[???? looking between her and the TV screen, after his own memories had played]

On the screen?

[ewestmarch]

[Screen, okay, this is another new one. Like a paper divider for privacy, that makes sense. Its white, its flat.]

No, where's the river? And the apartment?

[grimpa]

...I don't know. Wherever I would have called home, I suppose.

[ewestmarch]

Oh, you don't remember.

[She's only met one other person that's got full amnesia so far. She just woke up yesterday, though.]

...So it was your world. And this isn't happening right now.

[took her a minute but she's got the gist.]

[grimpa]

[nods]

It was a memory. --Two of them.

[ewestmarch]

And they showed everybody, huh?

[These are pretty harmless but not all of them are going to be.]

...This place is fucked up.

[grimpa]

You can choose to exchange multiple tokens for a private memory instead. I'm prioritizing gaining them faster.

[ewestmarch]

[A brief, sharp nod.]

I'd have made the same choice.

[grimpa]

[nods]

I'd like to be as much help as I can as fast as possible. You remember yourself, then?

[ewestmarch]

Yes. They took something different. At least I know what it was.

How long ago did you wake up?
