[The awareness of the need to play this carefully, close to the chest, keeps her attentive.]
I don't remember anything. I have a family that I can't recall and friends that are strangers to me here. [She pauses.] I know how it comes back. I've read the guides. All I need to do is die again, or wait a while--and they will come back.
I want to know why it happens. How it happens.

if you've read the guides
you know it's the nanomachines
stop pussyfooting or i'm hanging up
what do you want me to do, kitty cat?

For now.
[How many times can he poke House with this stick before he catches on that Stephen's just trying to make him mad enough to keep his word?]
I'll believe it when I see it again.

[So one fewer than that many times. Stephen huffs out a little laugh despite himself.]
You know what it's going to take to convince me you're right and I'm wrong.

You don't give a rat's ass who I'm supposed to be here. You care more about who I was. And I need to figure both out, because neither is particularly clear at the moment. All I have is this stupid tablet and what people are telling me.
[She pauses.] I would rather have ended up reanimated in the body of one of the god-forsaken townsfolk here than without a clue of who the hell I'm supposed to be. You and that supposed friend of mine did it, and you didn't get anything for it. He's rambling on the network and Watson is off tattling to the administrator and we have learned exactly nothing--except that the nanomachines carry an imprint of ourselves and our memories and are quite good at getting screwed up. That, and that Sherlock is evidently completely off his rocker. [Even acting, she's talking fast enough and with enough real frustration that she has to stop to catch her breath.]
If time is running out and I'll either need to die or wait who knows how long for my mind to get straight again, then I'll take whatever risks you see as appropriate to start getting some damned answers.
[And she almost believes it, enough that there's a real desperation to her voice. It's just believable enough.]

[There's a long pause as he considers her message. Considers it and tries to think of anything he could have someone else do for him that doesn't involve killing herself. House has actually enjoyed his flirtations with Mary. She plays along much of the time, which is refreshing.]
you wanna take some risks
contact hawkins and his crew
they're getting the high school and chapel open right now
they might need help
those are the answers we need right now
i'm killing time until i can reach them or they open up the next area
[Congratulations, Mary, you have his serious attention. He just doesn't have much that he's willing to pass off onto someone else, least of all a relatively tolerable person.]

How long do I wait, then? Until Watson's gone off and done something stupid, too? [She hesitates, careful not to press too hard.] Until Sherlock gets himself killed another time--and not the one that earned him a spot on the obituary yesterday. I'm intended to care about these people.
[Rosamund grunts in frustration, running her hands through her hair.] I don't know 'Hawkins and his crew'. I don't even know who falls into the category of "his crew", beyond Hawkins. I don't even know who Hawkins is.
I didn't call you to be deferred to a different bunch of perfect strangers. I called you because we've spoken, as far as I can tell, and at least I know when you take risks you know how calculated they are.

[Interesting.]
personalized hells. Well, that's what we thought they were before.
[That's what they usually are.]
you're a time-traveler, though
you didn't get any of that
wonder how they chose who got effects

no clue
i tried to ask people about it to figure it out but couldnt figure out any pattern
i know my time travel worked different than it did for homura but that doesnt explain anything else
not when jade and francel had dick all to do with it anyway and didnt seem to have any other connections

[House had marginally more tact as a child.]
Yeah. The people here are a lot cooler than most of the ones I know back home. All the grown-ups, especially. You guys are nice... for the most part. [Magenta had made him cry, but House isn't going to mention that.]

[House knows Stephen's trying to strong-arm him into this.]
every night for two weeks
and then we stop talking unless i need you for something

[He eyes the message for a long moment.]
if you're that desperate for my attention, kitty cat
should've just led with a boob shot
i respond well to those
you wanna do something for me?
build a bomb
or figure out another way to get holmes' body out of the morgue locker

Oh, but I'm just so desperate to spend time with you.
Well, there are a few jerks everywhere you go, apparently. But yeah, back home pretty much everyone was, and I get the feeling it's the same for your world, too, unfortunately. Here- I don't think so.
When we get out of here, I'm going to head to Al's world, instead of home. He keeps telling me about people he knew- there's a lot of decent people there. And alchemy. I think it'd be better.

sorry, babe

random samples
what if it's not all nanomachine corruption?
what if someone really is running occasional experiments?
testing limits
what better way to pass it off as something else than to stick it in the middle of all the other crap going on?

hm
maybe
hard to tell
there definitely is stuff going wrong here but the shit with the cells proved were not the only ones running around
and who even knows with those russians we keep finding clips of
have you guys found out anything more about them
or are we still in the dark

still in the dark for boris and natasha
we know they made it into res zone 3
just based on one of the maps they found scratched into the wall of a building
russian words on it
my real question is why did those pieces stay
we've seen nothing from other sessions
and there have to be some graffiti artists out there
why are these guys special?

ok i recognize youre going all rocky and bullwinkle on me but
just for this
can you use any name but natasha
also what the fuck is a winkle
did anybody ever answer that
it sounds like a weird dick euphemism until some smart aleck comes up and tells you its actually some obscure body part nobody thought needed a name until it did
like weenis
some douchebag in high school cracking up at his bestie
ew man i can see you weenis
put that shit away
dudes all checking his fly but its zipped up tighter than moms lips about the secret of where santas presents really come from
ill tell you when youre older junior
except now youre older and you coulda sworn weenis had to be obvious
like how on the long bulbous nose can you get
ween plus a rhyme
until dumbfuck mcgee busts past his gigglefit long enough to tell you its your elbow skin
and you just barely resist the urge to deck him for the whole experience
thanks bro
thanks a lot
for making me obsess over my possible dick slip in public
so maybe a winkle is just that area behind the back of your knee idk
i dont want to think about bulls winkles anymore
it can stay as much a mystery as why the cold war is alive and well in norfinbury
or maybe not alive and well
but worth the commemoration of whatever scrubbers usually erase this shit
maybe thats why they brought karkat here
he used a sickle for his strife specibus before this
sorry eve but this alien doesnt know what a marx is
and the only little red book hes interested in is if its got romance in it
