i’m pretty sure that was on the invoices for all your repair work

i’m not?

[ oh thank god someone else around here is still sane ]

who else?
and why are you asking like i’d make that up

[usurpers]

Someone named Levi Ackerman, I don’t know if you guys ever met. I share some memories with him.

If it were only you maybe you would be joking. Right now it’s something bigger than that.

[commandertoolbelt]

is that the guy you were scared of

[ do you even remember that at this point ]

i'd be offended if you weren't right
but yeah there's definitely something weird going on
like everyone's telling me i'm related to dante and felicia

[usurpers]

I wasn’t scared of him.

. . . Aren’t you?

[commandertoolbelt]

you sure acted like it

and no, of course not
but apparently i'm the only one who remembers that
i don't know what retrospec did this time but it's seriously messed up

[usurpers]

I was just a little nervous that I made a horrible impression.

But I was just telling Elliot this and our histories match up just fine. Is anyone else noticing anything off with our memories?

[commandertoolbelt]

if that makes you feel better dude

[ but anyway ]

the only people i've talked to so far who seem normal are james and sora
but we were talking about something else, not... whatever this is
everyone else seems pretty convinced something's wrong with me

[usurpers]

👊

[ this is him, punching you, but yes anyway ]

Maybe there’s something wrong with all of us. I didn’t know Dante was getting married and I thought it was because I was busy, but. There’s no way I could’ve missed that.

[commandertoolbelt]

[ looks like a fist bump to leo but okay ]

man i don't even know the girl he's marrying
if we were really brother i'd know something like that

there's not really any way to know for sure
most people seem to remember what you do, so maybe it's just us
but it is this retrospec stuff usually only lasts like a month or so right?
so we'll know sooner or later

[usurpers]

I don’t like counting on the one month mark for answers. What if something more serious is happening?
Our memories are starting to sound altered and that’s not something I can stay calm about for 30 days.

[commandertoolbelt]

trust me, i've thought about that already
and i don't like it either
but what can we do about it?
the only times we've been able to fix whatever retrospec broke it was because they helped
i don't see them stepping up now

[usurpers]

You mean we helped them.
But you’re right, I’m just getting anxious. There’s a limit to what we can do and what they do anyway.
The only other option I see is to investigate on our own. Any other ideas?

[commandertoolbelt]

yeah but they had to come to us first
they haven't given us enough to go on to do something ourselves
it's got to have something to do with that layer stuff they keep talking about, but i don't think that helps us much right now

i guess asking around to see who remembers what is all we can do
though we could always try talking to zee?
he did open an office so we could talk to him after february, right?

[usurpers]

It’s too technical for us to fix on our own, anyway. What I’ve least hated is sitting in the dark without the least bit of back up information.

[ . . . ]

Zee’s contact is down.

[commandertoolbelt]

i hate not being able to do anything about it though
and everyone thinks i'm making this up

[ which. is fair. but it's still annoying. ]

what, did they figure out something’s up and close up shop so we can’t yell at them?
great
that means we really are on our own

[ retrospec better be working on this behind the scenes OR SO HELP HIM- ]

[usurpers]

Not that yelling does anything.
We’ll figure it out. Keep me posted?
