NOAH ISAACS
Albert Wesker. Pharmaceutical Research and Development. This surely won't end poorly.

Clarification on exactly what you were doing would be nice, yes, I'm sure. Though I suppose some information is better than none at all, given that it told you something.
[ALBEIT...NOT...A USEFUL SOMETHING...]
[ALBEIT...NOT...A USEFUL SOMETHING...]
I do appreciate that, but something more substantial would be nice... All I know is that I was going by the name "Regaey" and that I was the leader of "Ruin's Gate", which is apparently a guild that deals with excavations. It's something, but it's not particularly useful information.
[He hasn't remembered The Joke yet. Don't worry, he'll get it eventually.]

[...The day that particular penny drops is going to be horrifically stupid, isn't it.]
Oh, believe me, I understand that much. I've remembered by fair share of non sequiturs.

I've seen the man who took the repulsive thing in at least one other memory before that. I don't recall anything else about him, outside of the fact that we used to work together and he seemed rather...enthusiastic about his research.
[ He thinks back to the conversations that they've had, and he can venture a guess as to why. ]
But you will not be whomever you were in the past.
[ At least, that is something Lucian can be sure of. ]
This life that was made, it is your own now.

That's as fair an assumption to make as any, I suppose.
[There are a few issues he has with that stance, if he's going to be entirely honest with himself - it's one that he wants to believe, surely, but at the same time the fact that all of this is being phrased as "reconstruction", including the parts pertaining to themselves, as well as the fact that as far as he can tell there was some sort of personality shift between some of his memories and the others and he doesn't know why -
Well, it's disconcerting, to put it gently.]
I've no interest in such things, anyway. Becoming that sort of person.

[ While Lucian has heard and guessed that some people developed differently from their other selves, the same could not be said for his own experience. Willingly or not, he had found himself backsliding into Lord Light's mentality. He lacked the deity's millennial-long wisdom, but the carefulness and lack of emotion had slowly took hold.
He can only hope others are different. ]
Do you feel yourself starting to become that past? If not, I would think you would be safe from it for the time being.
[ The man leans back, choosing to let out the slightest of sighs ]
They can't possibly expect us to assume our old roles.

Wise choice. Although at this rate, I'm not sure if he'll ever actually get the advice, or if it will keep circulating elsewhere.
[ Misfires strike ] a pickle jar or something.
I'm dead certain you wouldn't be giving me some weird sext.
I'm dead certain you wouldn't be giving me some weird sext.
[You know, he is entirely aware of the misfires by now, and yet - ]
...If it's any consolation to you, if nothing else I suppose I would have to commend them for the effort. Regardless of impact.

[And you know what, he is also here for complaining and drinking despite the fact that my brain was not here for anything for like the past two weeks, hello. The study is usually where he goes for such things, because he gets wasted like a classy person, and as such he'll bring Shuji back there easily once he's inside. Just...sit somewhere, it's nice and free of dogs that are going to maul you. Everybody wins, clearly.]
Hopefully things haven't been too aggressively surreal for you since we last spoke.

...It's difficult to say whether I do or not. It doesn't strike me as the sort of thing that would happen all at once, simply due to the nature of it; I can't say for certain whether it's something I can really know until it's already happened.
[Which is...frustrating, really, but so it goes.]
Do you find your own previous role to be distasteful, or...?

[...Oh my god. You know, fortunately he's aware of the misfires, but jesus christ- ]
If it had to do with pickle jars, of all things, "weird" would probably be an understatement.

My thoughts entirely, if not the wording I would use.
Why, exactly, are people dressing up like apples?

[If the study has books he's absolutely going to take a look at them later, but for now Shuji just has a seat.]
Nothing especially weird this week, thankfully. Just a lot of misdirected texts. Which, sure that's annoying, but the kind of technical difficulty I'd expect from my social media, not 'technical difficulty, we've lost control of reality'.
[He's okay with this event, basically.]

It's almost a welcome sort of malfunction, isn't it, given the last one.
[Like, seriously, he will take the minor annoyance over the sheer goddamn amount of YO HO that went into the entirety of last month.]

If those are my only choices, I'll take malfunctioning texts over the threat of being killed any day.
...Which just puts how sad this situation is in sharper relief, I think, that this feels like everything is perfectly fine.
[What happened to things actually being fine?]

...Something like that, yes.
It's come to my attention a few times that there's not much returning to the status quo after this, short of being removed from the group of us with the app in the first place. Given the choice, howeer, I'd prefer to deal with the abnormalities than be blissfully unaware of them.
[No, really, our resident native population is creepy?]

[ Uncertainty, the lack of a definite will bound by the limitations of the flesh... all the weakness of humans.
Or at least, that was what his old self might have said. Lucian pushes away the thought, looking up. ]
Difficult.
[ One who judged with omniscient wisdom, a burden far too heavy. ]
It would be impossible for me to assume my old role. One of the prerequisites was wisdom far beyond a human's lifetime.
