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?

@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>

Sure, then and when that perception issue started.

@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.

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?

@Session

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

Myriad Reality

<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.

@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.

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.

@Session

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

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.

@Session

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

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Could it be something mom did before we reset her?

@Session

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

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

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

@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.

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?

@Session

… Did she not?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

That...
*Nods once as I chew on the thought*
Would be bad. It hasn't affected anyone else?

@Session

I don’t think so. But the next people I would predict it to affect would be your parents, if anyone. You talk to them recently? Like, super recently?
