Dad, something happened to Fern. Do you know how people who were born here suddenly forget the app and stop noticing everything going on around here? That's happened to him. He's still here? But he doesn't remember much about what's gone on.
Yeah, he's not from this world so I expected if this ever happened he'd just...vanish. But I guess whatever messed me up with the peach got him too. He seems stuck here.
[But he doesn't remember much of anything and it's heartbreaking. Still, hearing Amal has gone through it does help a little. He does remember Zelos, of course, he just doesn't know that's who Amal is talking about.]
Does it ever stop feeling so weird? Talking to them like everything is normal and not like...all this stuff happened that might as well not have for them?
...Yeah. I don't know. It kinda makes my chest hurt thinking about it.
it sounds like it. i guess he's basically like anyone else born here who has a past life and just... stops remembering things sometimes.
it doesn't ever really stop being weird. you learn to just not talk about the things that are bothering you, which isn't really helpful at all or..... healthy probably
they basically get their happy ending but it doesn't have you in it. that's what hurts the most
what you can do from now on is protect him. protect him and the rest of the city like you always have.
maybe when this is all over we'll... be able to make it so everyone remembers..... i don't know if that's a good or bad thing, but i like to think at the end of all things we'll be reunited with the ones we care about
No, they're not. Sorey told me that before he. Well. Left, too. I'm still working on that.
[This is a really bad time to have lost his therapist, hooo boy. At least he has a replacement, but STILL.]
Yeah. Of course. I can still do that. And...yeah, that's a really nice way of looking at it. I know it's probably not smart to hope too much for it, but still... it's nice to have something to aim towards, I guess?
sorey got reassigned, right? [He rarely ever uses Sorey's name, but he's earned Amal's respect.] i'm sure he still remembers you. the pokego and black order people are different for whatever reason.
i imagine you'll travel too someday, but you won't forget me. you'll just be texting me from some other continent like 'hey dad! look at this cool bug i found!!!'
[Poor kid...]
it is. we all need something.
...... i'll be home soon. then we'll have your favorite thing for dinner, ok?
