Don't bother the techs. Seriously, don't. I'm not entirely sure what's going on but all I'm getting is that it's the equivalent of being hacked and someone who knows layer theory better than we do is out there screwing things up and tampering with the project. I don't have a really good update for you guys, but bear with us. Please?

Almost.

[spirithacker]

its good enough

[lienhearts]

Nah, it's not double digits until it's double digits

Trust me when I say you're still a kid

But you are getting older, so even if you still whine, try to whine a little less

[spirithacker]

how r u supposed to act like a kid with all this stuff happening

[lienhearts]

Make the adults deal with it

[spirithacker]

do u rly thng i can always do that

[lienhearts]

Of course not

But there's got to be some reliable adults you can go to for help on here.

[...Right????]

[spirithacker]

they keep forgetting

[Everyone does, eventually. But Shinji's not old enough to be self-reliant yet, so the blow is larger.]

[lienhearts]

Seriously?

[Oh... Well, shit.]

[spirithacker]

srsly
nobodys safe from forgetting everything i told them

[lienhearts]

[Hm.]

Is that so?

We should test it

Tell me everything

[spirithacker]

i remembered past me planning to die
that sucked

do u rly wanna know everything

[lienhearts]

[Jesus. He'd mostly been joking, but...

There's a pause before the messages resume, careful.]

Pretty bad memories, huh?

I can't really back off now that I've talked big.

I played all 3 lieats in the past two days and life is pain

[spirithacker]

u can if u want
im not that mean

[And he knows Theo probably wasn't expecting the death memories from a kid.]

gently finally fucking adopts

[lienhearts]

I stuck my nose in it, now I get to deal with the smell.

What do you remember?

finally!!

[spirithacker]

i was talking to myself about a plan
where i was gonna get killed
and i was drinking painkillers so it wouldnt hurt when i died

i was really scared in that memory
but i was gonna do it anyway

[lienhearts]

[...

He's... really been ignoring a lot, hasn't he?]

Why?

[spirithacker]

it was important
important enough to die for
even if i was scared

[lienhearts]

[What do you even say about something like that? It's hard enough discussing such a thing with an adult, much less...]

Sounds to me you were pretty brave

That shouldn't happen again, though

[spirithacker]

im not looking for reasons to die
thats dumb

anyway thats scary

[lienhearts]

I'm also assuming whatever happened then won't happen now

And, well, a ton of people here have superpowers

There's others who can help deal with whatever comes up

[spirithacker]

did u get superpowers
idk what past u was like

[lienhearts]

Nope

Past me was normal, too

[And a liar, too.]

[spirithacker]

boring

but im kinda jealous

[lienhearts]

It's depressing that having a boring past self is something enviable
