[ . . . a gently pointed look before he moves on.]
Ah - Maury made good on his promise to me too... sort of. What did he say....
[He changes his tone so it's a little pinched, nasally like a stereotypical nerd.]
"When people forget, their soul sort of slips out of place. At that time, they become their own little twist of unreality, and need to be rewritten a little in order not to unbalance everything."
[ . . . and then back to normal - ]
So... y'know, next time I see Chiyuki, I'll be thinking of that, I guess.
...god, this unreality and rewriting shit is too technical for me right now, remind me later--
[he needs more coffee, holy shit.]
Kind of fucked up, though. Like- if it's necessary, I can get that, but just the fact that they can actually do it-- did he say what it is that makes them forget? Like, is the soul thing a result of it or is it slipping out of place that makes them lose what they remember?
No, that's all he said before Jojo got to giving us our weapons. I think she has a crush on him since she was so against me getting Maury's number.
[that's baren's personal take on the retrospec scoop]
It sounds like the slipping out of place is the issue... and in order to get their soul back in order, they need to have their memories wiped and fixed so they never heard of Retrospec.
He didn't tell me anything about the selection process for who gets the app though.
[ . . . he might still have some people he's waiting on.]

Hey, tell Zukkini he's useless the next time you see him.
[He'd asked about the language, he'd asked about the books - and Sena said it didn't matter... he's gonna throw him off a balcony next time.
And there's more annoyed grumbling.]
"Saved"... So what, there's universe destroyers out there? Something like that? That's real sci-fi.

Kind of an asshole move to be like hey, so your whole world's dead, tell me more about that.
