24. And these days/I wish I was six again

[pompous_today]

Inara, if you are feeling better, I wish to speak with you. I got another memory back, and it [pause] fits with information you received in one of yours

Simon. It's a nice name.

[pompous_today]

Thanks, Dad. I rather like it myself.

[floatingbamboo]

Then I will call you that.

[pompous_today]

I appreciate it, bàba.

[bàba = dad/pops]

Simon, I'm so pleased you remembered your name. When would you like to see me?

[pompous_today]

I must admit, I will forever be perplexed by the fact that it never took all the times you tried to tell me, and yet when I least expect it, I hear it in a memory. It's very strange.

Well- I had rather hoped I would be back to my normal self by now, and I am not sure if I want to wait, as it may be a while. When are you free?

[galacticgeisha]

I'm sure there was a reason why I couldn't be the one to tell you, and hearing it in a memory makes it more real.

I am free whenever you like. I am no longer afflicted by the strange garment, nor am I affected by the latest malady.

[pompous_today]

I agree. In any case, I'm glad I have it now.

I will come over later this afternoon, then. I look quite a bit younger than you are used to, but rest assured, it's still me.

I likE the name Simon. But I'M StiLl calling you Doc.

[pompous_today]

I am sure you will not be the only one. Thank you.

You found your name?

Is there some [pause] special feeling that comes when you hear it? Recognition? I mean, I believe you. But how do you know it's your real name?

[pompous_today]

It does feel quite right to me, yes. Inara has also heard herself call me Simon in one of her memories.

[wtk_is_wedge]

Okay. Thanks, Simon.

[pompous_today]

You are welcome. I hope you find yours again someday.

[ice_echani]

I am glad you have remembered your true name. I will call you that from now on.

[pompous_today]

Xièxiè.

[Xièxiè = thank you]
