[ Anyone Who Has Left and Returned with Memories ]

[He thinks on this filter for a long time. (Whether he should keep himself anonymous or not, whether it's even worthwhile in the grand scheme of things.) But eventually, he writes:]

I have questions, if you're willing to answer.

[ Anyone Who Has Experienced a 'Trip Home', excluding John Watson ]

I'd like to compare notes, as it were. Provided you're amenable.

[Some time later, he'll dictate to the castle at large. There's not much energy in him today; he sounds worn out.]

Give me recipes, residents. Your favorites from your home world, I don't care.

Unless you're from Earth, in which case, don't bother.

Comments

[workaphilic]

[Oh. That's interesting.]

Did you remember them all at once, or did they trickle in?

[delincuente]

I guess they, like, "trickled" or whatever. I was still having those aha moments about people and stuff into last summer. Super annoying.

[workaphilic]

So, in other words, you can't be sure that you've had all your 'aha moments' to have. Might still be a few things left to rediscover.

[delincuente]

Yeah, pretty much. I mean, it's not like you know you forgot something until you remember it, right?

[workaphilic]

Right.

If you have another, I'd appreciate it if you'd let me know.

[delincuente]

Yeah, sure, unless you're like a creep or something. Do you alway go by initials? 'Cause that's pretty 60's-spy-flick-villain if you ask me.

[workaphilic]

Sherlock Holmes, if you must have the extra letters.

[You can practically hear the eye roll.]

[delincuente]

[Oh, good! Audible eye rolls just make her more irritating. She's pretty sure that "sherlock" is some kind of poisonous plant (wrong), but she gets the sense that he's just grouchy, not villainous.]

Okay, cool. I'll drop you a line if I have anymore surprise memory jolts.

[workaphilic]

[dry as the desert:]

Fantastic. I can hardly wait.
