[the video shows a teenage girl, all blonde hair and blue eyes and petite features. small, white-feathered wings stick out from her back, rigid. she's uncomfortable. her head hurts, her nose has just stopped bleeding. she hasn't been sleeping. the familiarity of these symptoms has prompted her to make this post. she keeps her expression calm, collected. she feels anything but: grumpy, worried, exhausted. but she hopes that the way she looks will make her words easier to comprehend and less alarming.]

These kinds of nosebleeds and headaches have happened to us on the ship before. It was a long time ago. Over a year I think. They stopped on their own last time so hopefully they will this time too.

[there's a brief pause before she types the rest of the message. she wants to warn them about the memory connection that happened last time, but she doesn't want to start any unnecessary panic. she decides to forego it for now, biting her lip.]

If you get blood on your clothes saltwater can help get the stains out.

It just stopped on its own?

And thanks for the tip about the saltwater, I didn't know that. [ and has already lost too many shirts to blood stains here ]

Yes. Something else happened after but I think it was a separate event.

You are welcome.

How long did it last?

Just between two jumps.

Did it stop before the jump or after it?

After. It was not as bad as this though.

What was the something else?

People could see other people's memories and feel their emotions. Being close to the person whose memories you experienced helped stop the pain.

Maybe the fact that it's reoccurring is why it's worse.

Maybe. I cannot remember another time when the same thing happened twice to the passengers.

if it happened before, did anyone find out what the cause of it was?

I do not think so. To be honest I do not think anyone tried to find out.

really? i would think that would be important enough to look into.

It was not as bad as it is this time. It was just another annoying thing that happened back then.

so it's worse this time?

Yes I think so. Actually it definitely is.

you mean with how long it's lasting or the pain?

The pain. The headaches are worse for sure.

i wonder if it's related then, if it's happened before.

are you going to be okay?

I hope it is not.

I think so. I am not bleeding from anywhere right now anyway.

Are there records of when it happened last time?

I think so. There might be some in the medbay.

i hope not either.

being with someone helps. or i can help get you can get something from the medbay to alleviate the pain a bit

Maybe there'll be an answer we didn't think of.
Something not obvious.

We can hope.
I am Nill by the way.
