[ You enter the doors into a brightly-colored room that curves down, like a bowl, with stairs towards the center. In the center of the bowl, there’s a circular marble table, with chairs around it. ]

[ When you get to the center, the doors slam shut. Once you look back at the table, there’s a menu standing upright in the center… ]

Soo...I don’t remember what’s in everything, but you should eat right up! Everyone should eat! If you don’t, uhmm, there’s a penalty. You’re all way too skinny anyway!

[quackery]

Well, anyways, if it's easy that's good, right? Let's not take it for granted!

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

True. Especially when we gotta win you your first memory!

[quackery]

[A giggle, and a nod.]

I'll do my very best to help!

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

[Smiles and pats her head, I AM SO GLAD I DIDN'T RUN INTO YOU WHILE I WAS A JERK.]

Of course.

[quackery]

What kind of things do you think there'll be to eat?

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

No clue, I do not know a lot about food. [Shrugs.] Desert meant limited diet, I guess.

[quackery]

You lived in the desert?

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Apparently. Lots of sand and these weird pyramids. Like some were normal, but others looked like they were mad of glass and colored.

[quackery]

Wait, what's a pyramid?

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Like a biiiiiiig triangle, but 3D. So it's got four sides. It's a building type dealie.

Also I'm gonna go first, kay?

[quackery]

Oh, that sounds cool! A triangle building... I can't really picture it.

[A smile.]

Okay! Thank you. Good luck, too! Hopefully it won't be too bad.

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

I could show you the memory. It's a good one, so long as the undead horde don't intimidate you. [Her life is weird.] But Dirk and I totes kicked their asses.

I'm sure it'll be fiiiine.

[quackery]

You can show other people your memories here? That's so cool! Um, what do you mean by undead, though? Is Dirk another one of your friends?

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Yep! You can take the shards out of your mirror and pass 'em around if you want. Same for skills.

Undead as in they are literally walking skeletons.

And he is! I actually have a picture of him back at the dorm too.

[quackery]

That's so cool! I'd love to see some of yours sometime, then.

T-That's possible? That's so weird!

Ah, can I see when we get back?

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Birthday is a good one. The others are...kinda of weird.

Well, they're all kinda weird, but Birthday at least has weird shit that makes sense on it's own.

And yep! All over LOPAN, hard buggers to take down, but eh. Just takes some grinding.

Of course.

[quackery]

Your memory of your birthday, you mean?

Er, what's LOPAN? Sorry for asking so many questions!

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Yep! I remembered my sweet sixteen. Dirk's too, our bdays are like right next to each other.

It's the planet I live on. With the sand and the pyramids. [And neon sky.] And questions are totes cool.

[quackery]

Is sixteen supposed to be different from other birthdays somehow?

Oh! So you aren't from Earth?

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Well, it's called sweet sixteen, so I suppose so?

I don't...think so? It's a bit hazy on that front. I know HUMANS are from Earth, so at least my family was at some point. Just don't know when the whole alien planets became a thing.

[quackery]

That sounds weird... Well, hopefully you'll be able to figure it out once we win more games!

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

Oh, it's very weird, my whole life is one crazy after another.

But it should become obvious with enough time.

[quackery]

Maybe you'll get a normal memory sometime, too.

[thevoidsdarkhorse]

...Iiiiiii'm not betting on it.

[quackery]

Well, you never know!
