Yoon-sung Lee
05/02 near Recolle
Who else on here has been looking into the coding and otherwise strangeness of this app? We need to make a list, also a list of people who are now no longer connected like the rest of us to this app. In fact, I have an actual first hand account of someone that is off the grid now. As in a fellow UNlocked and I were running through some code, checking up on the flood of all these new people, and then went our separate ways, and when I got up to be ready for the usual early morning torture aka self-defense class with him, someone else is in his place.
Well. I mean that it is him but it's not him. Same face, same voice, same mannerisms but a huge chunk of his memories of the past few months is gone. Like erased gone. He can't see the app, he doesn't remember horses or non-singing fruit. I'm a little shook up by this. Okay. A lot. The guy's my PA. He's not allowed to not be out of the loop I can't survive this way!
Sorry but it's hard being an adult when the real adult is like some kind of smiling robot of themselves that isn't even smiling right. He's like a pod person there is no snark there is no sass WHAT HAPPENED TO THE TALKING BACK SASS?
Also I need a very large drink. Make that three large drinks. And someone that will let me flail at them in a martial arts kind of way. I'll pay for both.
Seriously. Help?

Chloe Bouchard I believe that I recognize your name from a previous talk or two with someone.
Chloe Bouchard You are one of those mentioned alongside Tim as a programmer.
Chloe Bouchard Sadly, I cannot help much here, but I think pooling your resources is an excellent idea.

Chloe Bouchard I can offer help with sparring, however.
Chloe Bouchard I have a lot of physical energy pent up lately.

Yoon-sung Lee I've heard about Tim but have yet to contact him.
Yoon-sung Lee I'm thinking more then just programmers.
Yoon-sung Lee There should be a list of who to go to for what since it seems we are having weirder and weirder hallucimemories happening, and physical changes.

Yoon-sung Lee Great!
Yoon-sung Lee My PA isn't someone I want to practice this with until I know what I'm doing.

[That blasted word again... fine, fine, you win Dave.]

Chloe Bouchard You know, I think I give in. I will start calling them that, since so many are using that word and I don't want to confuse people.
Chloe Bouchard And yes, a list like that would almost certainly be helpful, since there are certain things that we need help with but without the right professional we might not get it.

Chloe Bouchard Have you been acquiring powers or skills back lately, just for my reference?
Chloe Bouchard I have been attempting to get used to some that they have given me, or that have appeared recently, so I understand wanting to be careful.

[Yoon-sung is just too lazy to come up with any new word, especially given just how he was hit with the memory he gotten.]

Yoon-sung Lee I wish there was something that rolled off the tongue better, but what can you do? Kids these days.
Yoon-sung Lee Especially since those people not connected to this app can't seem to be bothered with changes as much. They seem to accept it or get startled and forget it's weird.

Yoon-sung Lee I know the basics for a while but.
Yoon-sung Lee I did this thing the last time I faced off against him that shouldn't have known. It was a clumsy move, but it felt like something I would perfect easily, if that makes sense.
Yoon-sung Lee So I might have gotten something.

Chloe Bouchard I just don't like thinking of them as memories is all, but it isn't important. It's just a word.
Chloe Bouchard And yes, I believe I understand completely.
Chloe Bouchard I would prefer to fight unarmed, though.
Chloe Bouchard Something about the things my body seems to remember aren't exactly safe armed.

[Given that her skills were assassination, yeah....]

Yoon-sung Lee Isn't there studies out on how a person can change their memories?
Yoon-sung Lee The mind is just another tool, and we've always been good at re-adapting tools for new uses.
Yoon-sung Lee I doubt that I need any help with a weapon, so it'll be good.
Yoon-sung Lee I'm not sure about what I can do yet so this will probably help in any case.

[So was he, he just doesn't remember it yet.]

Chloe Bouchard I've never heard of that, though I'll admit that it is a bit disturbing to me to think of that that way.
Chloe Bouchard And good, this sounds like a good idea.
Chloe Bouchard Just give me a call whenever you are ready to meet.

(OOC: We can easily do this during the event if you want, with them cutting loose on bugs and the like.)

Yoon-sung Lee It came up one day around the office. It was a big discussion and there was a lot of pizza involved.
Yoon-sung Lee Sounds good to me.

(ooc; that they can :3 )

Chloe Bouchard I imagine that was a strange and surreal conversation.
Chloe Bouchard I couldn't imagine having it personally, but pizza helps everything.
Chloe Bouchard Or at the very least, it makes it easier to talk about anything.

(OOC: Here you go)

Yoon-sung Lee He thought I was drunk and I thought he had his brain switched out.
Yoon-sung Lee But I guess it was a little weird, but we're kind of geeks.
Yoon-sung Lee It was a better conversation then the merits of bendy straws and crazy straws in the use of bubble tea.

Chloe Bouchard Ah, I think I understand a bit better. I do not know many "Geeks."
Chloe Bouchard This is the sort of way that some people approach this.
Chloe Bouchard I try very hard to keep my world nice and mundane, though lately that hasn't been possible, has it?

Yoon-sung Lee Yeah, no, normal isn't going to be anything we're a part of any more.
Yoon-sung Lee Unless you drop out of this elite little group and go back to normal.

Chloe Bouchard And even then, is that truly normal anymore?
Chloe Bouchard They were shrunk down like us, so it would still be an illusion.
Chloe Bouchard It's not really better.

Yoon-sung Lee True, but at least you wouldn't notice it was odd.
Yoon-sung Lee None of my workers thought that being five inches tall was that weird, only that I decided to live in a Barbie mansion during the time.

Chloe Bouchard Whether I knew it was normal or not, the bugs were still very much a threat.
Chloe Bouchard I think, at this point, I prefer to know over not.
Chloe Bouchard The world has become rather perilous for those not on the app.
