Do you have any other questions?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

[pets]

I could ask questions forever if you let me, boss.

[taking the survey paper and jotting down CYGNUS- Shine, DELPHINUS- Newbie, CORVUS- Cerces]

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

And I would answer them if I could.

[mmmm pets]

...Claude Kenni did a foolish thing when Mirror had him, boss.

He let her in. I don't mean just. Poking around.

I mean he...

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Would that leave permanent damage?

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

Let her -- he would be lucky to be alive, much less functional.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I figured that.

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

... is he functional?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Fevers. Sometimes confused.

Thinks I'm his adopted brother.

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

Why would she ... This is strange even for her.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

When he was able to remember it properly, Claude said what he was told by her was...

"He's the only one who knows anything about how this place works. How it really works."

His penalty was a copy of Surgeon's on Aeris of Lacerta. To remember a life as a member of a past Sabra that wasn't underground.

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

... Surgeon performed that penalty, and Mirror followed.

[broods]

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Is he obsessed with that time or something?

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

I do not know. It is possible, but I cannot see why.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Did you like it more back then, boss?

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

Back when, exactly?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Above ground. The fake memories we get given...

Its a place with Judges but above the ground.

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

...

[closes his eyes]

I cannot speak about that.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I just want to know if you were happier.

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

[very long pause]

There were great libraries, once. Larger than this entire place. Hallowed ground.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

If I ever remember a false past, I hope it has me finding my way to a place like those.

There's a Blank on Hydra that wants to read real books. Is there something that can be done for him?

[sabra_la_npcs2.insanejournal.com]

On Hydra? Unusual. While he cannot directly take a book for his own use, you may read to him, if arrangements are made.

Ah, so it's completely exclusive to us.
