I hope so. Yesterday was a pain and I feel like I'll just relax and rest for today to get over it.

I'm assuming you had a bit of a problem yourself with yesterday?

[enemyradar]

Yeah, I agree.

Mmhm. Yesterday I felt like I was being droned. It was weird. I remembered everything from before Mayfield, but something was trying to tell me that I'd always lived here...

You don't remember yesterday? I recall everything that happened. But I can't quite understand why I thought or did some of what I did that day. It was just bizarre.

Someone helped me realize that everything that was replaced wasn't my real memories and that the fleeting ones I kept getting were. It was really odd. I kept thinking people had different importance in my life.

[enemyradar]

I see. At least someone was there to help you. Hm. I bet if I had let my guard down, then I would have gotten that bad, too...

[notasidedick]

I think it depends. It seemed that everyone was affected in varying degrees. I talked to a few who seemed to have no idea they had their memories swapped.
