[ there's no explanation or introduction attached to the message despite her obvious newness in the 022 of her i.d. number, just a direct, pressing question: ]

Is it pretty common for people's memories to get screwed with here?

Comments

[logicunlocked]

if they were screwing w your memories how would you even know it?

[uncurse]

Other people.

[logicunlocked]

there are a lot of explanations for other people telling you stuff you don't remember.

Time more than memories but I'm thinking you're asking for a reason?

[a.k.a. is this a new and terrifying possibility that we have to worry about]

[uncurse]

Yeah, I am. What do you mean time?

[humanistic]

I mean it's pretty common for people to show up from the same place but from different points in time. So if there's something you're not remembering... might just be it's not yet happened.

[andblockbuster]

i've pretty much confirmed that no one's tampered with... most of our brains. everyone i've looked into checks out clean on their brain scans.

[uncurse]

You've run brain scans? Recently?

[ meanwhile emma is like HOW DO WE HAVE NEUROSCIENTISTS ON BOARD YET WE STILL CAN'T GET OFF BOARD. ]

[andblockbuster]

uh yeah. on anyone who'll sit still long enough. aside from the nanites, we're clean. this is, like, my only real job here.

[certainproclivity]

If I were to venture a guess, I'd say you've met someone whose memories don't match up with yours. Correct?

[uncurse]

Sounds like you've heard of that kind of thing happening before.

[ she's dodgy because she's definitely 70% sure that gold can/is reading this and she's not sure if he knows her number yet. ]

[certainproclivity]

An associate of mine remembers far less than I do. I haven't thought much about the implications.

[ex_question191]

Sometimes people turn up and they don't remember being here before, but I dunno if that's a memory thing or what.

[uncurse]

"Turn up" ... You mean they disappear and just show back up in those tanks? Sure sounds like memory tampering to me.

[ex_question191]

My theory is alternate universes. Because sometimes people have doubles, here. So maybe the new person is just... the same person, but from a different universe.

[ because he doesn't like to think of his memories being tampered with. ]

Do you mean their memories from home?

text;

[uncurse]

That's exactly what I mean.

[reticencies]

It happens more than you'd think. A couple of people from home that are here remember more than I do. [well it's only just casey now since chuck left recently but the point still stands]

[chaineddog]

Depends what you mean by 'screwed'.

[uncurse]

Changed. Erased, whatever.

[chaineddog]

You talking about yourself or someone else?

[soyed]

It happens all the time.

text

[uncurse]

If it happens all the time why do so many people that are answering sound confused by the question?

voice;

[oftwoworlds]

Not to my understanding.

[uncurse]

Even for people who come from the same place that you do? Wherever the hell that is.
