Ah, ah, ah! It's happened again! How wonderful.

A flea and a fly in a flue
were imprisoned, so what could they do?
Said the fly, "Let us flee." Said the flea, "Let us fly."
So they flew through a flaw in the flue.

Nothing really ends here, does it.

Ogden Nash.

I find things end just as they begin to get interesting.

[alangabriel]

Who?

You're correct about that. But there's a fly in the ointment if I remember everything, isn't there? Are these Memories at work? Ha. Haha.

[justitiae]

Just a man, one who no longer belongs to us here.

It is not about remembering any longer, but learning where you now stand. Welcome to Purgatory.

[alangabriel]

Who are you, to know that? You have Memories of the world before forty years ago?

It was never about remembering. Paradigm City is and has only ever been what it is.

[builtwithscraps]

Wonderful?

[alangabriel]

That great Event. ...Or so it was thought. But it doesn't matter if this place is Paradigm City or not; there's still no past. The past is irrelevant here.

BATMAN IS WATCHING YOU.

You seem familiar.

[alangabriel]

Do I?

[filigrain]

What has happened again...?

No... nothing ends here, unless they're sent home...
