Jim...?

[Is that even the right name? There are two others he's called in this, after all. How much of it is real memory, how much of it is figment?

Sakura doesn't know but she wants to know. David's important, almost family to her now.]

[Private.]

Is this why you have trouble sleeping?

[There's a significant delay before he replies. He knows by now what she saw, and it's not easy to be composed about it. But Sakura's important. She can be trusted. She deserves the truth.

By the time he does reply, he sounds calm.]

Part of it, yeah.

[Normally she'd be more delicate, but she's been wanting to ask him questions for ages and now seems like a good enough opportunity as any.]

["Nothing, it's just a dream" is the automatic response, but he bites down on it. That's just the normal lie, and he knows that Sakura has both earned more than that and won't buy it anyway.

But-

How much of this is real?

Marie. Marie is the ultimate reality, even in her total absence. Conklin, and his voice, are real. Hirsch. But how much, other than the fact that these people existed, can he trust?]

[Finally, quietly and perhaps surprisingly calmly-]

I don't know.
