I did not think I'd be here again

...I think it is again...

I looked for a key before, this time...this time I need the key and what it goes to.

[There is a shuffle as Hugo gets up from where he sits on his bed and takes in his room with disbelief.]

But I know they won't be here. Someone told me that last time. 

[It's come back to him, the girl he spoke to and the doctor, rather the Doctor as it turned out.]

My name is Hugo Cabret.

I've heard of occasions where losses are changed, perhaps that will happen to you sometime.

[clockworkchild]

What do you mean?

[axwielding]

I was told that a loss was exchanged once, however I do not know the circumstances of it happening.

[clockworkchild]

I do not think I have much for them to exchange it for.

[axwielding]

I see,.. you can't think of anything?

[clockworkchild]

No. They would want to take something important, right?

[axwielding]

I think so, they took something important from me.
