[There's a person in gray walking around the new buildings. He seems to be scanning the area around the two buildings, getting his bearings perhaps? Though he looks pretty calm and collected.

Bother?]

Yeah. Real nice way to confuse things more. "I like my freedom, but you know what, I'll go along with these games willingly"--the hell?

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

You think they are as dangerous as they say?

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

... the games?

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

...Yeah.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

... yeah, pretty much. Don't think you can make that stuff up.

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

Then what do we do?! What's the point if we don't even remember why we're doing it?

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

[. . . good questions]

Look. We're here now. We can't get out. I heard those caves and tunnels are a mess and there's even worse out there. We're here now. So we might as well get on with whatever we wanted ourselves to do. We win games, we get back those memories, we find out why we came here, and we look to win. Simple, right?

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

...Simple.

And what if you die?

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

If these judges are as powerful as people are saying, they'll just bring me back. It'll be temporary.

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

...I still don't like it.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

Join the club. But like I said, we're here now. We do what the inscription says and fight in the games to win back our memories. We're not alone in this.

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

Inscription? The man from Lynx mentioned it too. You can understand the symbols on the door?

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

... yeah? Can't you?

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

They just look... odd. I can't make out what they're supposed to picture.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

... that's 'cause they're not pictures. They're symbols. For sounds. Sounds that make words.

Alphabet? A B C one two three? Anything of that ringing a bell?

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

I know how to count.

...I don't remember any alphabet though.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

Okay, so that's definitely going on the list of things to do.

... probably should work a trade for paper and stuff.

[nevercomingback.insanejournal.com]

[Shrugs.]

The symbols were etched into the wall, right? Maybe we could do the same.

[sonuva_gun.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, except there's twenty-six letters to learn and a lotta words to go with.

Maybe when you learn to read and write something, you can put it on the wall.
