A month, maybe? It wasn't very long at all. [At least compared to her own time here, or Vi's, who had been here longer than all of them. She knew that had to be confusing as hell to learn. He isn't the first person she's seen return either, and like Ekko, they didn't remember their past visit either. It was always disconcerting, how easily the Council could toy with their memories. Hers were finally straightened out again, but it took months. It was frustrating.]

I don't expect you to remember it. You aren't the only one to come back, with no memories of your last visit.

[She nods as he repeats what she explained. He's been very quiet, but she isn't surprised. Again, it's so much to process. And this is just scratching the surface. They might have to dig into more information at a later time, just to give him a break from all this.]

It is unfortunate. I keep tabs on him, just to make sure he's not up to too much. He's running a few businesses in town, and just reopened the Last Drop. Nothing too bad, but I don't let my guard down. [Or tried not to. Her memories were fucked up for a little while, so she wasn't paying attention for a few months. Not that she could actually do anything about it, if he did start doing something sketchy, but she could leave tips for Jerry and let them bust him.]

Vi and I mostly avoid him. Her and Jinx are doing.. alright. Most of the time. Jinx is mad at them right now, since they fought each other in this tournament thing that happened last month. [And killed each other, and both came back from the dead, but again, not wanting to load him up with too much.

But then he asked the most pivotal question, and she hesitates. She doesn't know, and it kills her, not knowing. But deep down, she knows... it didn't look good.]

I...don't know. We were all pulled here, before the damage was even accessed. I just hope-- I had a friend on the council, like I told you, Counselor Talis, but-- so was my mother.
