It's been a while, hasn't it? I'm afraid things are really quite busy here, and unfortunately our liaison has been compromised. Well...so have a lot of people, actually.

Are you still yourself if you're not the self you were? It's the kind of conversation we've had a lot of times, around here. I've always only been myself, but if I woke up tomorrow as someone else, would I still be me even if I wasn't?

I think rather than worrying about that the best thing I can do is focus on trying to sort things out as best I can. I'm a little worried, actually, but I think I can manage to give everyone a shot even if I can't fix things on my own or even with everyone's help.

But you can help! Or at least I think it will help if you think about what it means to be "you". It's okay if that answer changes or doesn't. Just hold onto that concept and don't let it go. And maybe tell other people what you think it means? Not like I'm saying you have to talk about that. I think usually you all just talk about anything, and I think that is also a good way to hold onto who you are and who you want to be. Sometimes I think it'd be fun, all those parties or little plans. I've never spent much time outside of these walls, did you know?

I don't have time to really ramble, though. Those of you who know what I mean, we're doing our best. Those of you who don't, you do your best too. Pay attention to the things you tell yourself, and I'll try to fix what I can fix.

Please take care.

I'm afraid that's not the confession.

The confession is that when the layers came back together my memories have ended up scrambled. I'm somewhat at a loss to who you are and our history together. I know who I am, and I have all my regained memories so that is no issue.

I know I have been on the app since February, so that also is not the problem. I find the problem to be some of my relationships with people have become distorted in my memories. So I will need a bit of a crach course, if you could.
me_matey: (i'm your problem now)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-02 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
That is

not surprising, tbh, given all the other stuff that's happened lately.

Satsuki Hojo. I'm a regular at your "ramen" stand.

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-02 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
A regular, huh?

I see. Anything else I should know? Perhaps about those shows?
me_matey: (which way the pressure lies)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-02 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Shoot, even that? What a load.

I'm a pro wrestler, Kei. You poke fun at me about it.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-02 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Huh. ]

That does sound like something I would poke fun about, yes.

...

Do you have a stage name?
me_matey: (to get through this thing called "life")

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-03 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Nope, just Satsuki Hojo, Queen of the Pirates, and RCW Women's Champion.

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-03 05:46 pm (UTC)(link)
Queen of the Pirates.
me_matey: (this one definitely goes out on a censor)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-03 06:00 pm (UTC)(link)
See, there it is. I can practically hear you rolling your eyes.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-03 06:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe you do.

And do you wear a pirate hat, too?
me_matey: (bon voyage around the world)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-03 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I sure do! Especially since I got the other me's hat.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-04 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
The other you's hat?
me_matey: (would you rather be stupid just like me)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-04 06:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, turns out she's a pirate, which is great considering my gimmick is also being a pirate.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-06 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
The more I think about your other self, the more I can't picture her.
me_matey: (bon voyage around the world)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-06 09:41 pm (UTC)(link)
She's a wild one, for sure, but I get the impression she's a good person despite the whole pirate thing.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-06 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Which is not unlike you, right?
me_matey: (but waking up is always so hard)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-06 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
No, see, you poked fun at that, too. That my character in the ring is this rambunctious hell-raiser and I won't even jaywalk.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-06 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
You won't even jaywalk...?
me_matey: (always jumping never happy where you lan)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-06 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Turns out the kind of courage it takes to be in my business doesn't translate to disregard of the law. I'm too much of a weenie.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-06 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Huh. ]

Well. There is nothing wrong with that, Satsuki Hojo.
me_matey: (i can ride my bike with no handlebars)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-07 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
See? Rolling your eyes.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-07 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
To be fair, I'm not very good at disregarding the law, either.

[ A beat. ]

I'm quite skilled at it.
me_matey: (are you looking to drive my dreams)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-07 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, I'm not here to judge. That's between you and your maker, buddy.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-07 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Thankfully for me, the law and what is "good" are two separate things.
me_matey: (which way the pressure lies)

[personal profile] me_matey 2018-07-07 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
That's generally how the other me thinks. Which is why I think she was a good person, despite the pirating.
livingimpaired: (Default)

[personal profile] livingimpaired 2018-07-07 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know how I feel that the two of us think the same.
