Delirium? ... Hm. Haven't been in castle lately, but ... will check in on her.

Be careful when you do.

[pff, he doesn't know the meaning of the word]

What's she been doing? Any pages I can reference in journal?

Not that I know of. She's just... off. Or she was when I saw her.

Welcome.

... [there's a moment of thought, and then] Might help if you could define "off".

Crowley described what happened best as "cruel." That's not like her.

[there's just a slow, simmering sigh, for a moment. then:] Sounds like castle is back to its old tricks of manipulating us all, again. Had hoped that so many new residents would sate its appetite for sadism.

Apparently not.

Have been giving it a lot of thought, and ... what bothers me most is that it let us remember what we discovered about it.

Normally, memories of those things get taken away. Speaking from personal experience.

What do you mean by that?

Had been told, when I first arrived, that castle had ways of preventing residents from learning the truth. Back in the fall, had two weeks' worth of memories taken from me. Last thing I remember is preparing to confront someone about a secret, something my partners and I uncovered. Thought confrontation would lead to my death.

Woke up two weeks later on partner's couch to find that I'd only been on a loss. Not dead. And that even though he remembered, he's unable to tell me. Castle is keeping me from a piece of the truth we found...

... Yet we discover what fuels it, and the means to take it down, and it lets us keep that memory. Why?

Probably because we didn't really bring it down. It rebuilt.

So you're saying we were working on false information.

Infuriating, but ... it makes sense.

I've been known to do that on occasion.
