[Hold up. Rewind.

[What did Shinigami just call him?]

Do you consider me to be a friend of yours, Shinigami?

[This is, somehow, the most shocking development of them all.]

[hellrisen02]

You're a real piece of work. [Snort] Yeah, kid. You're a buddy of mine- and I always look out for my buddies.

I won't ask the same of you, if that's not your thing. Don't worry.

[d33tached]

[...]

I didn't know.

[hellrisen02]

Sheesh.

Well, now ya do. So, whatcha gonna do about it?

[d33tached]

[Uhhh...]

Is there something that you would like me to do?

[He's bad at this.]

[hellrisen02]

[Pause]

Yanno what, don't worry about it.

--Actually, there's one thing you could do for me: don't worry about why you're my friend.

Think you can do that?

[d33tached]

[Well...]

I suppose so.

Very well, then.

[hellrisen02]

Great!

Well... if you got the uh, technical parts of the situation under control, I guess that's all that's left, yeah?

Lemme know if you need any help with that whole thing.

[Thankfully, Duo was only minimally affected by this whole shebang- well.... insofar as your own kid forgetting who you are is 'minimal'.... But nothing to clean up was good enough as any craziness in these Porter worlds.]

[It's a little weird, but somehow D33 is left so stunned that he feels...a little better?

[Well, that's what friends are for...right?]

Yes, of course.

I thank you, Shinigami.

[Wait, maybe he should uh.]

It is my understanding that this situation affected a great deal of other ImPorts as well.

[Why does he feel so awkward asking this?]

Is everything alright with you, then?

[hellrisen02]

Oh, I'm peachy! For once, I didn't get hit with this bullshit.

Feels kinda nice, not being the guy with his wits lost, for once.

Ahh, well, 'course plenty of others I know besides you were affected. But that's not a big deal.

duo u fuckin liar

[d33tached]

Have you often been affected by such things?

well he only saw OTHER people's memories...

[hellrisen02]

I tell ya, buddy, in the City? It was a new bit of this bullshit every week.

Non-stop. This place has been loads easier on that side of things.

[d33tached]

I can scarcely imagine.

[hellrisen02]

No. You really can't.

[There's something edging his voice, something slightly... deranged.]

When people from the City speak of complete chaos, they ain't kiddin'.

[d33tached]

[The tone is certainly unsettling.]

Forgive me.

We need not speak of it anymore.

[hellrisen02]

[Oops, did he let it show? Time to pull back a little...]

--Ahaha, it's fine. Just stressing the point that... it's true, what they say.

There's a reason Cityzens're so... off.

[If they weren't before, hoo boy.]

[d33tached]

Yes, I see.

[D33's life motto remains true, then - it could always be worse.]
