[30] Video: But it's no use going back to yesterday.

[notarrowette]

[Cissie doesn't look great. In fact, she might have been crying not too long ago. Her voice is also kind of hoarse, which is totally because of, uh, allergies. Not because she did some frustrated screaming into pillows or anything. According to Sammo, Bruce left her a note; she's going with a coping method of denial at the moment. Everything

[Pft pretend, sure.] Cissie?

[Private]

[notarrowette]

[...Yeah, that worked real well. :| Hey, deflection!]

Do you think people remember, when they leave? I mean--some do. They'd have to, or why are we bothering? But. I don't know, never mind.

[PFT. Tim is debating lying or not.] I think...it's different, for every person, every time they go. I didn't remember, when I was back home, but I know some people do.

[Pause for a moment of good friend clarity.] Want to hang out?

[Private]

[notarrowette]

And there are all the people who leave and come back with amnesia. [Have a BIG OLE SIGH, Tim.]

[...And then a pause, because hey, stop moping, Cissie.] ...Yeah, that'd be nice.

[ Oh god food. Still a sensitive issue. ]

Sounds cool. When were you thinking?

Private to Molly and Steph

[notarrowette]

[The food is optional!]

Whenever's good for everyone, I think--and you're feeling up to it, of course.

Private to Molly and Steph

[goodgrasshopper]

I'm definitely game, too. I'll bring the hair colors. Any requests? I have normal colors, and really fun ones.

Private to Molly and Steph

[ichoosefight]

It's just that I'm not sure how soon I'll be up for fast food.

I... would love to try purple.

[breakmychest]

My inmate's gone missing too. So you may be on to something there.

[notarrowette]

Eventually you start to notice a pattern with these things.

[breakmychest]

Yeah? How long have you been here?

[notarrowette]

Almost nine months now? Since mid-February.

[amagicalmystery]

...Bela too, huh? I hadn't seen her around lately.

[notarrowette]

...I think so. I mean, there's always the chance she might come back, but--her room's empty and her cat's gone.

[Oh Bela, Cissie would like to be able to say I TOLD YOU YOU HAVE FRIENDS... but she can't.]

[amagicalmystery]

Heh, she keeps stealin' away and waltzing back in...

She's one of the first folks I got to know back when I first came.

[notarrowette]

Was she? Here's hoping she'll pop back in again. She was a vast improvement over Beatty, that's for sure.

[a_bit_put_upon]

Cissie...? Is there anything I can do for you?

[notarrowette]

No, I'm all right. [LIES.]

It sounded like you've got your hands full anyway. What were you doing, anyway?

[a_bit_put_upon]

Welding. Immensely relaxing, once one stops expecting anything of it. [Aaand he sounds a mite irritated, because stupid magic stuff.]

[Private]
That aside, are you certain? You, ah... you don't sound all right. If nothing else, perhaps I could offer something to soothe your throat.

[Private]

[notarrowette]

Welding? ...What on Earth were you welding, that nothing comes of it?

[Aaand a sheepish look.] I'm all right. Probably just... getting a cold or something. But that would be nice.
