Luckily for Mele, the night had ended before Tenzen had changed his mind and deemed Mele appropriate for target practice. Even if the situation of who was mocking who had seemed to change into the Iga ninja's favor. Despite her behavior, perhaps the insolent woman could serve some sort of use nonetheless. He had been trapped in this place for a

After having stashed her sword, the diminutive shinigami was ushered into the cafeteria and given her meal. At least she could handle more solid food with grease now. She made a mental note to never let herself starve again. Finding a place to sit was not hard, but Momo chose a silver-haired man that looked familiar. She'd never spoken to him before, but she could have sworn he had been around as long as she had.
"Hello. May I join you?"

A patient approaching him appeared to be an inevitable occurrence, but the Superior welcomed it. The answers Erika had provided were useful, but not enough. This young woman, perhaps she could provide some of the knowledge he was seeking.
"Good morning," he offered, before he nodded and made a gesture towards the seat across him. "You may."
Reply
"Whether the morning is good or not, I guess, depends on how each person's night ended. I would not consider it good, but certainly not bad," she said. "But I'm used to it by now. I would think the same goes for you. After a while it tends to blend together."
She smiled again. "I'm Vice Captain Hinamori Momo. I've seen you around, but this is the first time I've spoken to you. I hope you've been getting along well."

Or Momo was mistaking him for another, which would be a more than logical conclusion, yet this facility seemed to be lacking any of such logic thus far. Or, no more logic than a nonexistence.
"You've seen me around, you say?" the Superior spoke. His words were calm, his tone not containing a skeptical or accusing nature. If anything, his words merely implied he found the idea a remarkable one. "Then, allow me a question; when is it that you have seen me?"

Unfortunately, she hadn't felt any need to keep track of this man, so she didn't know if he just associated in different circles than she did or if she just missed paying attention during those two weeks when she was little more than a shell wandering about, not caring if she lived or died.

At least the comment regarding his 'distinctive look' mostly ruled out the more logical hypothesis. Landels Institute certainly knew of ways to keep his interest.
"You speak of remarkable things," the Nobody commented. "Now, is it common to forget?" He was quite aware of what he admitted, but to be shrouded in secrecy was not a priority.
Reply
"I am not certain 'forgetting' is the right way to put it," Momo answered, choosing her words carefully. "You don't remember being here before because you, the man sitting across from me, was never here at that time. Another you was."
Reply
"Another me?" he echoed. "You seem certain. Why is it that you believe you are speaking to another me than the one you have perceived one month prior, rather than a me who simply no longer holds these memories? Memories are important as they define who we are, provide us a sense of self. Yet, they are fragile. They can be easily erased or manipulated." He spoke on a leisurely pace, once again without accusation or skepticism. After all, he only wished to learn of the reasoning behind her answer. He gave off an air of calm, one who listened rather than argued.
Was such a thing possible for this head doctor? Did this man's power know of any boundaries?
