It isn't as though conversation is particularly my strong point, anyway, and I'm well aware of it.

You usually do perfectly fine with a bit of prompting! I certainly don't mind it, anyway.

As long as you're certain.

[...You know, this is probably the world's most awkward thing to say, but.]

It's not like that in my memories, you know. There aren't nearly as many problems with it - if any at all exist, I haven't seen it. It's possibly the most desirable trait I've seen out of him so far.

Really? That's interesting.

[It certainly means that this Wesker is different from the one in his memories, but Jaeger doesn't say it.]

I can certainly see how that would be a desirable trait. I really don't mind it at all, though. You don't ever need to worry about that.

[He does have suspicions as to why that might be, but it is a good sign, at least, regardless of why it exists.

...Ah, right - ]

I also have something in that box outside; I've already seen it, and I have no interest in it for the time being, if for no better reason than I've nowhere to put it and not much of a desire to look at it for very long.

Oh, what is it?

[That sounds... interesting, though it doesn't sound like it's a good sort of interesting.]

[He doesn't seem bothered by its existence, for what it's worth, just kind of...eh.]

I could show it to you, if you want to see it. It's an awkwardly-posed portrait of myself and one other person.

That "Alex" person we were discussing was apparently my sister.

Oh, I hadn't even considered that Alex might be a woman's name...

[Huh. An awkwardly-posed portrait...]

I'd like to see it, if that's fine with you.

[He's kind of curious just how awkward this picture really is.]

When we're done here, then, I can get it for a few minutes; I still have the ticket for it on me.

[...Because what else is he supposed to do with it.]

Sounds good to me. You plan on leaving it there this time as well?

[He can see how it'd be awkward to keep something like that, but is it really okay just to leave it there...?]

Yes. As far as I can tell, the best-case scenario involves them finally getting the hint that I don't particularly want the thing.

[He supposes he can see where having a picture of her might be nice in theory? But it's also kind of creepy, given that she's a woman he doesn't know.]

I doubt they'll be kind enough to take it back, but maybe they won't mind if you just leave it there!

[Just watch, it's going to get mailed to your house or your workplace in the future.]

They did imply that it can be used as storage...

[So at least there's that.]

Oh, that's true! Maybe they realized people aren't going to want some of the things they're giving us.

[...]

Though they were kind enough to give me ammunition for my weapon, so I suppose I shouldn't complain too much.

At least they've given you that much.

[No, really, that's good to know?]

Ja, it's better than getting a strange picture! Have you received anything else from them?

Another set of memories, all unrelated to each other. But nothing physical since those files.

Yourself?

I did get another memory, but it was only about a power source called blastia. It wasn't particularly helpful, anyway.

[He hasn't received anything helpful in awhile, actually, which is kind of worrying. He's probably going to get something terrible back soon.]

Mine were mostly confusing, but aside from remembering Alex, largely unhelpful as well. One was too out-of-context to mean much to me, and another was...bizarre, to put it gently.

There was a fourth that was mildly upsetting, though it was vaguely helpful; nothing that isn't manageable, however.

[...]

Perhaps it's a good sign that yours haven't been helpful; it may mean that nothing came of the warmongering attempt.

We can talk about them later, if you'd like. But if you say they're manageable, I believe you.

[He won't push, in other words. As for that though...]

Ja, that's what I'm hoping. Maybe it was just all talk and no action, or maybe we were stopped. I'd certainly prefer that over actually starting a war!

...I wouldn't mind discussing them. I know you tend to prefer knowing about what I remember, anyway, and none of it was particularly traumatic.

[It is entirely true that he genuinely wouldn't mind.]

I do hope that someone stopped you, however. Or that nothing came of it overall.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

[Jaeger nods at Wesker's words.]

That would be ideal. I don't remember enough at this point to know how things turned out there.

...Perhaps the presence of that person you were plotting with will help with that eventually.

[...It might not go in a good direction, though, and he knows that; at the same time, it's better to know, he thinks.]

That's what I'm thinking. Even if I don't remember it, he might. That could help, I think. I just want an answer to what happened there, even if I don't remember it right away.

[He sighs and rests his chin on his hand.]

Of course, he might not have remembered it right away either. I'll have to be patient until one of us does.

[At least now there's two of them to potentially get that memory back.]

...I genuinely hope for his own sake that he hasn't recalled that yet.

[Like. As someone who remembered murder as the first thing about his past life, yikes?]
