have you ever had one actually know your name?

One thought I was someone from his world- but by a different name. Jean. No one's ever known my name.

Who was it?

jean doesn't suit you.

two of them, and get this - they're not even from the same time. aramis and porthos

Alpha, darling, you have the files of all the Immune on hand, remember? In their world there's probably an Athos. Read up on them and it might make more sense.

i do not want it to make more sense.

Take it up with Bifrons. They're the ones picking who they bring in.

anyway, i've already read some of the files. it's eerie. you'd think they'd want to strengthen the bonds between the immune themselves, not try and give them ties to us. i suppose on another hand entirely it makes sense though.

Loyalty is useful. Especially between the immune and the militia.

mostly what i'm getting out of it right now is just hugs and suspicion

Boo. I wish my recognition scare hugged me. Mostly he just looked...lost. A little heartbroken.

i was pretty sure at the time my hugger was a pirate. turns out he was just a musketeer. either way it was sort of like getting a hug from a childhood memory for about three seconds. i think you might win though; i disappointed mine at first but at least i am maybe 26% who they think i am.

Logan wasn't as friendly. Just. I don't know what. I told him my name- well. My callsign. He made me feel guilty. I don't even know why.

yeah, so did mine. it's weird. triply uncomfortable

...I felt like Monet for a bit. My predecessor. He was kinder than I was. More honest. I think I'm- I don't know.

Tell me more about your pirate.

[ he has almost literally no idea what to say to that first part. he can't really picture a kind, nice, honest person surviving for too long amongst their numbers - the lot of them seem to be having enough trouble as it is. ]

big, loud. cross between a pirate and a peacock. so much leather. picked me nearly up off my feet and looked gutted when i didn't recognise him.

Poor darling. At least your fanclub doesn't have a history of some manner of mental instability. Well.

On record.

you always know just what to say

I try, little wolf, I try.

mental instability?

[ he makes a note to at least read more of the incoming files on the immune. maybe a chip would be handy, loathe as he is to admit it. he's been relatively lucky with his side-effects so far, and he enjoys being himself, but. there are so many of them coming in, dropping out now - it's difficult to keep track of them. ]

Memory issues, questioning reality. Bifrons doesn't like it when other organizations play at using their techniques. It's usually messy.

he must have skills they want to take a risk like that. hopefully he'll keep that instability away from you at least - giving me a suspicious fan club and you an unstable whatever at the same time is an interesting decision

[ Not that he's questioning it. Just that. Well. It's an interesting decision. ]

i'd imagine it'll play out to an advantage though. unity everywhere

I considered stringing him along like I usually do for roughly half a second before I just...couldn't.

He looked at me the way I used to look at Romeo. I couldn't. I'm getting soft or something. You'll just have to make up for it with your pirate.

you want me to play hardball with a pirate twice my weight class? here i thought you sort of liked my face the way it was

I don't think he'd hurt you THAT badly, darling.

of course he wouldn't

have you forgotten though i told you there were two of them? they don't totally trust each other but they definitely trust me less

[ Although she was talking about Romeo and being soft and he feels a bit bad for making his wigging out the point of the conversation even though she switched topics to talk about his twice now. ] hopefully you can minimise contact for a while anyway, let you both get settled from the encounter
