[aw buddy...]

I'm curious if you have any ideas on what the other reasons might be.

[enfangs]

I don't know, I'm used to sociopaths or people with delusions of grandeur, not this shit!

[probe]

[they laugh.]

Oh - trust me, me too! Me too. You're gonna be mad, but yeah, it is something you have to figure out. [...] Explore this place a little better, White, you might find what you're looking for that way.

[enfangs]

Exploring just got me dragged underwater by ghost arms and everyone calling me stupid.

[probe]

Well, you're not stupid.

[huff!!!] I heard you get something from the jailcell, right?

[enfangs]

[wrath is the best]

... Right, that. Uh, I still don't know what to make of it?

[probe]

[their opinion is the only correct one, tbh]

... I still uh, don't know exactly what you saw? Something with a dude and a car?

[enfangs]

Um... I was in jail and feeling hopeless, like nothing mattered because some girl was gone? Just stared out a window and waited.

[which, thinking about it now, is... very familiar to him in ways that are probably pure coincidence.]

Then there was an alarm and I was going to some town square, and then yeah. The car and stuff.

[probe]

What do you think it was? A memory, an illusion, something else?

[enfangs]

Wraaaath, why am I being given a multiple-choice pop quiz?

[...]

A memory, maybe...? Weirdly detailed for just a made-up illusion.

[probe]

[they laugh a little at that.] Because! You're smart, I know you can get there on your own.

Okay, so it's a memory - why do you think you saw it? What do you think prompted it? What would be the point? Don't just say you don't know, really try for me, babe.

[enfangs]

[DESPERATELY FRIES HIS BRAIN]

...

?

???????

[he's trying]

[probe]

[WHITE DKJFSKKF

wrath just. rubs their face. they're amused, though.]

It didn't seem like anything you've seen here, right?

[enfangs]

Nope. So, uh, it's someone's memory? Someone... significant to this place, or something?

[probe]

Sort of? It was a lot different than what usually happens here, though.

[enfangs]

Yeah. It didn't, uh, look like it was in outer space, for one.

[probe]

It probably wasn't, if you saw what I think you did.

[enfangs]

Okay...

[...

that was as far as he got.]

Is the part where it was also probably about an execution relevant, or...?

[probe]

Yeah. What was different about our executions and that one?

[enfangs]

Uh... that one involved a car instead of another person?

[probe]

I - well. Uh, yeah, I guess that's one... way to put it.

It was... less of a fight, right?

[enfangs]

Oh. Oh! Yeah. It was more of like... an actual execution, I guess. Minus the driving into a burning pit part.

[probe]

Yeah! Yeah.

Now you know why we were so surprised when Beauregard and Endorsi went up against each other.

[enfangs]

But you were expecting an execution of some kind, right?

[probe]

I think expected is not the word. I think, uh. We more were just... resigned to it? Or at least I know I was.
