I saw mom this morning, and dad is still in the recovery chamber. Does this Rhythm character live there? If so, wouldn't mom have mentioned something about her or talked to her?

<Snipped quote by Session>

… Did she not?

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Not around me. But I can't exactly approach her about this, not without explaining everything that happened.

<Snipped quote by Session>

It’s a lot of stress to put on her after recent events, for sure. But it’s hard to know what the cause is without even having a hint as to what’s causing it or who’s responsible, if it even is a someone.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Could it be something mom did before we reset her?

<Snipped quote by Session>

Maybe. But… She likely knows at least more details on how it could have happened.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Here's the problem I'm not comfortable with: If we end up reawakening any of mom's missing memories, she could go back to the way she was before. Or, for all we know, she could get worse. I won't lose her, not after all we did to save her.

<Snipped quote by Session>

I’m with you all the way in that regard. Issue is, that leaves us stuck.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

I have an idea I hate. A lot. Maybe there's a way to make a copy of mom, question that one, and then delete it before something goes wrong.

<Snipped quote by Session>

I could spitball a million issues with that. Both ethically and in ways it could backfire.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

That's why I don't want to do it. And I'll take almost any other idea first, but an option is an option.

<Snipped quote by Session>

Surely the idea of backdoors in navis isn’t something exclusively your mom would have knowledge on. Someone or something out there has the knowledge as well.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

It's a little generic, so the search space is huge.
*Taps at the air and starts to scroll*
But I'm reminded of something. Can you describe our behavior before, when this first kicked off?

<Snipped quote by Session>

You mean beyond the lack of perception of each other in any way?

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Sure, then and when that perception issue started.

<Snipped quote by Session>

It started at least just before I met up with her, and around the same vague time you and her would have gotten going as well.
*Motions to Cure*
But any and every thought and breath was put toward investigating and eventually confronting your mom so it’s hard to say.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

How did Rhythm and I act around each other? If we ever were close enough to interact at all during that time? You mentioned that we were oblivious, but how?

<Snipped quote by Session>

In general, you were mellow with each other. Presence mellows out your personalities. But at the time, it was like neither of you was there for the other. You couldn’t talk, see, touch, anything. Even remote communication directly between you was a no go.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

But it wasn't like we were in two different worlds, right? If one of us made a hole, the other would need to step over it.

<Snipped quote by Session>

All four of us were fighting the same bird, right? You certainly weren’t fighting it in two different places.
