...I'm glad to hear that much, at least. You had a bunch of people worried. [ code for "you scared the shit out of so many people you just died on." ] I figured you guys were doing the best you can. Even if your hands are tied.
Yeah. And no matter what happens to us, we want to stop what's happening over here. [STOP GETTING POSSESSED AND DYING AND JOINING THEM THINKS LUKE but not me who wants more fwends]
Yeah. It's...we got the messages that this has happened before, but I'm not even sure where to start looking to figure out the source or how to help find that answer. Unless you have other ideas.
[It is probably kind of hard to tell through the pixels, but he looks grim as he shakes his head.]
Not yet. [Hmmm. He wants to be cautious, but he knows Shoma is smart and hardworking, so...] We have a lot of the same information. So we're getting closer to figuring out the origins--and I think that might be the key to figuring this out.
You think? [ that's...promising, in a way. he can be happy they're getting somewhere. ] We're finding new information each week, and the senior crew seems to be remembering more and more each time. If we can put it all together, even having the overlap will give us an idea.
Whatever was originally, like, brainwashing them seems to be wearing off. The remember more about their original lives and that they aren't meant to be here. They're starting to remember more names from the original crew, and things they encountered during the winter tour. It's a slow process, but they're getting there.
Yeah. A lot of us have been showing them as many as we can, and that's triggering their memories coming back stronger...even if it's also hurting them. But they've said they still want to be in the know.
So it is hurting them... [Nyeh. He'd known that, kind of, but hearing confirmation is--not good, exactly, but good information to have.] If it's working, then I think you'll just have to keep at it. It's not the most efficient method, but it's the best we've got under the circumstances.
Yeah. It's been getting worse over the weeks. I'm pretty sure it's because of the wetware they all have. [ dislikey. ] It's migraines mostly, but parts of their body get tense, too. It's working, and they acknowledge it is, so we just have to be careful how much is too much at a time.
[This tag truly sent me on such a journey I hate it here]
I think that's a good plan. Pushing too hard won't get us answers any faster. [Also it would like. Hurt them or whatever. He does care about that, but his priorities have been their crew since the start, and that hasn't changed.]
You guys should make sure you share with each other, too. Someone might've found or seen something important, but not realized it.
Yeah, exactly. We take what we can get and move from there. Try other routes if we need something faster. [ but he nods. ] Shu and I were talking about maybe trying to get people together just to get everyone up to speed, but that was a while ago. Maybe that's something to bring up with other people and get us organized, too.

Yeah. We're working hard on our side, too. [Well, (static noises) but (static noises) and (static noises). That's me bullying you, not real static.
He smiles gently, then.] I'm fine, I promise.

When you say they're remembering--can you tell me a little more about that?

That matches up with what I've heard. And you guys have been finding documents and things, right? Have you shown them to the senior crew too?
