Did I? Well, I'm sure people in that sort of situation must react differently from others. Maybe it's a circumstantial thing.

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

[laughs]

We were in a considerably more comfortable situation than regular blanks. Didn't have to play in games or risk our lives for food on an everyday basis.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

Start from the beginning, please. Games and blanks?

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

Sabra la Tau is undergrounds... somewhere. It's ruled by some sort of deities we call Judges who bring all sorts of different people to play games. Everyone loses their memories upon arrivals and regains them slowly, as their teams win said games. At the end, people get to go home and have a wish granted.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

Hoooh... Sounds weird. And interesting. But mostly weird. Losing your memories must be super annoying.

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

Troublesome, more than anything else. It doesn't help that the order we recover them in is completely random.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

So no context, huh.

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

None whatsoever. The best you can hope is that someone else remembers you and for them to be kind enough to share what they know with you.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

Is that what was going on with you and the other me?

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

To a certain extent. We were rivals, you see.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

How so? And how did you win back your memories, if you didn't play games?

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

There's a special team called Ophiuchus, divided in three sub-units, everyone on it works as enforcers and you receive memories for a task well performed.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

Is that what you're on?

...

Oooh. Is Uraboros the team my other self is on?

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

That's it, precisely. Depending on how each sub-unit ranks at the end of a period our living facilities change, so the top tiers get all the nicest things.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

That sounds like a pain in the ass. But I guess all you have to do is keep winning.

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

It's hard work. And not always very rewarding. But like I said, better than the alternative.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

Which is?

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

Participating in traumatic games that will either leave you severely wounded, or... dead. People get brought back to life, but the revival is just as, if not more painful than the actual death.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

Ick. People get brought back to life here, but I hear it's rather painless. Couldn't tell you for sure though.

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

Oooh. Alternate Shinra didn't mention that! I wonder if it's as interesting to watch as in Sabra, though.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

I'm sure someone will die for you to see if you wait around long enough.

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

Don't say it like I'm wishing for someone's death. Even if it's a complete stranger, it's not very nice.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

But you sounded so excited, Shinra.

[dullahammered.livejournal.com]

It's a very educational experience and I won't waste an opportunity like that if it arises, but that doesn't mean I am wishing for anyone to die.

[informadick.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, if you say so! I still mean it though--if you find one of those little white fluffballs, someone'll probably reboot from there eventually.
