[Listen Jim, he's paranoid.

Also- hm.

An address is sent, along with-]

Ah. That's on me, I should have been clear; they're free, Jim, what am I going to do with more money, buy another penthouse?

We go through piles of these just trying to upgrade them (they're prone to explosion. Do NOT attempt to alter the hardware, or on your own head Literally be it), it's just a matter of making sure we have 2.0s somewhere.

As it stands I'll be leaving them at that address, since naturally walzting into the Labs rather defeats the point of us going back and forth through a PO box.

.........................side note you really had a gunman named Moran then? Hm. I don't suppose he ever tried big game hunting?

[crazyequalsgenius]

If he did, I never heard about it. He was just a contact, a resource, pairs of steady hands and keen eyes with a gun.

[in short, his universe was robbed, but only in part, because have you seen Watson?
.. give it a week or two]

I have someone I can send to the drop point, that's just fine. Let me know when.

As for the explosions ... I hope that principle of engineering doesn't extend to simulacra here. I just found a contact who might be able to help me repair anything in the event it breaks. Or is broken for me. I'd hate to explode over this place's equivalent to a sprained ankle or something.

[noasark]

Shame, must be boring compared to the books, Victorian era derivative then.

Ah, excellent, I can work with that easily. As for your own explosions...it shouldn't, but pretty much anything here operates on 'shouldn't, but can'.

Fortunately for you if you're injured a good exposure to Fog should restore any damages- though be careful not to count on it for heavy injuries all the same. The fog here is thin these days, and it has consequences.

cw: suicide/drowning

[crazyequalsgenius]

You're the second person to mention books to me. I have to admit, I'm curious.

As for the Fog, I'm told that's why I was able to die more than once in a day. It laid me on my arse for a few days afterward, even so. Wouldn't recommend it. Even if, I admit, I did make one of them happen just because I knew it wouldn't stick. Always did want to know what drowning felt like.

[noasark]

Tragically there isn't much you're missing, beyond the age old theory of multiple realities in relation to fiction.

Ah.

Yes, it is, and if you can help it, don't push that. Even if you find a particularly neat way to go- die too many times, and you'll gradually forget who you were, and it won't be a smooth process.

[crazyequalsgenius]

Interesting. Not surprising, but interesting.

[he's already having thoughts, which will become abundantly clear come the Masquerade if Noa chooses to attend]

So I've heard. I've already forgotten two things, if I'm keeping proper track ... and I know one of them was someone's name. Every time I remember his face, the things he did and said ... nothing.

[noasark]

Mm. Be glad it was simple this time- these things get much more abstract than that, and I can't imagine you'd want to forget certain 'basic' concepts without warning. Obviously it won't stop anyone from filling you back in...but there's not much more irritating than needing to be reminded of something you long knew before.

[crazyequalsgenius]

I had assumed it would get thornier the more memories were lost. Thanks for the confirmation.

Trust me, I've gotten the suicidal streak far out of my system. Life here is far too interesting for that.

[noasark]

Not a problem- and let me just say I'm very glad to hear that. It's hard enough staying alive at the best of times, in this place.
