[ktiseos]

[oh, it's them-- he gives virgo a brief nod, when they appear.]

I do. What do all of you know of this-- memory affliction? How in the world is it that I recall things which never happened to me?

[guestservices]

Tch. How the fuck do you think? It's the same way more time has passed for some of you than for others, even though you came from the same place. This place is fucking weird about time. There's this you, and that you, and it all gets mixed up here.

Or something stupid like that.

[ktiseos]

It is not simply time, it is-- he was from another place on top of it, what sort of mess of a confluence is this meant to be?!

[it's not them he's annoyed at, but it's been one full day of this and he's already sick of his other self. selves??]

I want nothing to do with him.

[guestservices]

Time, space - [they wave a hand.] - they're really not all that different.

If you want nothing to do with him, then use what you're seeing now to avoid making the same choices he made! [a beat.] Dumbass.

[ktiseos]

Of course I intend to!

[what else is future knowledge good for, truly.]

I do not need his unpleasant memories in my head to do so.

[guestservices]

Well, like it or not, they're there now. Unless you want to try bashing your head in to make yourself forget, hahaha!!

[ktiseos]

Why in the world would I do that?

[virgo is this advice]

[guestservices]

You just fucking said you didn't want those memories in your head! How else would you force yourself to forget them?! Amnesia is very common when one suffers from blunt force trauma!

[ktiseos]

And so, I would assume, are head injuries!

[guestservices]

That's what healing is for! It will make your headache go away afterwards. [a beat.] Idiot.

[ktiseos]

As I've yet to see to my arm, adding new injuries on top of it is wholly foolish.

[guestservices]

Oh, for fuck's sake. See to your goddamn arm already. The four of us can heal twice each week and I've only gotten asked once each time, there is no fucking reason why people should just sit there with their injuries when they fucking have options.

[ktiseos]

I have every intention of doing so! I have simply been otherwise occupied.

Nor do I care to rely upon precedent and assume you shall not all be needed the next time-- but should it prove possible this week, then I will.

[guestservices]

If we're talking about precedent it looks like you wouldn't do that unless we bitched at you about it. So just make sure you do it!!

[ktiseos]

[(emet voice) EVERY WEEK I DO TASKS]

You may cease your bitching, then. I shall-- after others are seen to, if it continues to be a necessity this week.

[guestservices]

Fine! I shall cease my bitching! Ugh.

[ktiseos]

Good.

[he grumbles- but, well.

speaking of bitching!]

[guestservices]

[


uh]

What the fuck happened there.

[ktiseos]

Damn it-

[he reaches up to rub at his face, with a frustrated sigh.]

...my future self happened, evidently. Whoever saved him shouldn't have bothered.

[guestservices]

Does he ever stop talking...

[like... hello...]

[ktiseos]

Evidently not. And from what I recall of it now-- it was his fault in the first place.

[he is judging future emet so fucking hard for thinking about how convenient it is to be saved when he started it]

[guestservices]

His fault? What did he-- what the fuck did he do?!

[ktiseos]

I do not know! Not specifically, at the least, only that he must have caused this somehow.

[he's not sure he wants the context, either.]

[guestservices]

[bruh]

He seems like an-- asshole.

[ktiseos]

Now you see why it is unpleasant to be saddled with his memories.
