retrospec | (no subject)

It's been brought to my attention (again) that some of you are looking for compensation for the work you're doing. I'm open to that. So tell me, Retrospecters, what is it that you're looking for? Money? Answers? None of the above? I'm all ears.

The scouting project seems to be working out okay. I don't know if any of you have found a place that's really good to relocate or recover but maybe we should talk about that, too.

…finally, bit of a morality question for you.

What's the priority here, you think? Working on chasing Vanderweele down this rabbit hole of a wild goose chase (wow that is too many animal analogies), or memory recovery of the company itself? Both of them are about as convoluted as you think, but not impossible.

Wait, not finally. One more thing since someone brought it up: in case you haven't noticed yet, you might want to pay attention to the things you've managed to bring back because, and I hate to make it sounds real drastic, but the fate of the world kinda depends on it? Just a little. Welcome to your destiny, everybody.

Anyway discuss. I'm back in the office, so drop by if you need something.

So you believe this other person really is you. But plenty of people have remembered that other person dying, so dont assume there is some kind of path between that life and yours.

Those are his actions, but what about his motivations? Why does he do it, and why are you so ready to slap the label of hero onto him?

I think it might be my last life and reborn in some way here. If the Retrospec story is true, we are survivors of destroyed worlds, based on my memories I know who would have destroyed my world and potentially all the other worlds.

That's what I gather so far to make the pieces fit.

I'm still me though, just happen to have some perks from my last life because of Retrospec.

As far as I know, he just wanted to help people, at his lowest point, his deepest regret was the mistakes he made along the way, how he didn't do enough.

And, it kinda just seems like it, again, not the full story, but that's what it seems like so far.

How was other you?

Then I guess I'm glad you're free of the doubts of the rest of us. Just be careful you don't wish to become him so much you give up your own life.

I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Yeah, it's nice to think I was a hero once, but to go back to my world or BE like him.

No, just no, I'm not that selfless.
