retrospec | (no subject)

Time. A weird kind of concept, isn't it? I've been thinking about it a lot lately…this whole "time" thing, the way the map's been laid out, and how this project came into fruition.

I've been able to get a read on some stuff, and I've been transcribing notes from the company. Your app should have some new upgrades now thanks to a handful of factors none of which were my own ideas. I did the legwork, but the groundwork was provided. Thanks, you know who you are.

We're rerouting for higher security, anonymity and the chance to overlap. Which means…what…?

Here's a question for you. Where have you wanted to go more than anywhere in the worlds? A time, a place, anything like that. There's a theory about alternate timelines I might be looking into based on company research. What've we got to lose at this rate?

Strip the defenses in the past, unveil the man behind the curtain in the present, secure the future. Someone told me this kind of thing was a lot of power to trust on you guys…but isn't that all we can do now? Trust each other and test the waters.

No missions this month. I checked out everything in Respatrum and Bosuma and it seems that the people there are more self-sufficient than I anticipated which was nice. The subway's still up and running though.

Coordinates will be incoming in a few days. I'm testing them out myself to make sure they're stabilized.

Stay sharp.

Oh dear, I can see where that would have been frightening. It's good you've gotten used to them now, though!

And yes, that is something I should be wary of... Getting overconfident always results in a painful reminder that I haven't had these for very long yet. I'm sure I'll get used to them in time, but I'm not exactly looking forward to whatever memories I'll regain regarding them.

[you know, vampire stuff. since he's assuming he's a vampire.]

If you wind up like what seems to be most of us... honestly, you're probably right to be bracing yourself now

But (and I'm going to be a hypocrite saying this) just try to focus on the life you're living now. That life is past, and if you have regrets from back then, it's all you can do now to move forward and live the best you can with your second chance

I think it's very important not to lose oneself to their past life, yes. I'll always do my best to make sure that doesn't happen. I have a lot I'm hoping to do in this life, and forgetting all about that for what has already happened sounds dreadful.

Yeah. Of course, mind that I say this with the knowledge that it sounds a whole lot easier up front than it winds up being...

When you remember being someone else, it really does start shaping who you are now. Who you want to be.

It's good, though, that you've got goals already. I'm sure that'll make keeping your eye on what's important easier.
