Summary: Alec and Ben have met before, but it's a little tough to hang onto memories in a place so fond of brainwashing. While Manticore was trying to repair Ben after his run-in with Max, and making sure Alec wasn't headed for the same kinda crazy, they were often confined in the same places at the same times. Ben loved his stories. What Alec doesn't remember is that he loved them, too. Wouldn't have been so bad, except those Psy-Ops guys really got into your head, stirred up the bad and kicked the wrong mental doors open. It got hard to know what was real, what was sane.
Later, Ben decides it's safe enough to come back to Seattle and check on his little brother. Dealing with him starts to shake some of Alec's memories loose, and suddenly Ben's way of thinking doesn't seem quite so crazy anymore.
