But do you really think that?

@Server

I think that I’m never going to quit on anyone I care about. I think it might be hard. I think it might be really, really hard. But yes, I wouldn’t lie to you about this. Ever.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Yes, of course.

@Ignacious

If you ever find anything to prove that wrong, please. I want to be.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Uh...

@Webmaster

*Frowns, then speaks with repeated intonation*
... How about now? It clearly doesn't do anything instantly, because I assume you still remember that we've told you about your sister as of right now at least, right?

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Do you think that mom can be saved?

@Server

I'll never think otherwise.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Holds your wrists tight against me*
I sure hope it’s something else...

@Server

It had better be... I'm not trying to hurt any of you by sharing that. I just want to solve it. I want to solve it and get everything back to normal.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Are you thinking that it’s deleting and restoring modified memory on the fly? And that it could have the same effect on dad?

@Webmaster

It's possible. It clearly doesn't do anything instantly, because I assume you still remember that we've told you about your sister as of right now at least, right?

*Looks down, clearly disturbed*

@Server

*Wraps my arms around you in a huge, comforting hug*
Here's hoping more info proves it's something else.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

I... don’t love that idea.

@Webmaster

I didn't either, or else I would have been more eager to share it.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

I mean, it makes sense.

@Ignacious

Based on what we have now, at least.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Then why was that memory data in Sam, one of her viruses? That makes five.

@Server

I dunno. Maybe these specific listings aren't the only cases actually applied, but only just in a specific batch? Or maybe X is actually exempt, and where I imagine is his spot is actually Sam's? We don't have all the information. But your behaviors as far as memory goes lines up just way too well with what this program seems to be intended to do.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*purses my lips as I realize what you are saying*

@Ignacious

It is crazy. It really is.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

If we’re infected too, why is this the only way it’s manifested? Just basic memory issues?

@Webmaster

The only way we've seen, at least. But I don't know. Like I said, it's just a theory. A big, huge, crackpot theory. And you two having forgotten about each other again when we first met up here today is just what tipped it over the edge for me.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Not a chance. Mom would never do anything like that to us.

@Server

It would be a lot of coincidences though... I had to bring it up.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

So are you saying that the mom we saw was her corrupted version, like Sam’s?

@Webmaster

I don't really know much of anything about Sam to say, but possibly?

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

*Sighs*
Hit me.

@Server

Okay. If Melody was willing to apply the program to herself as 01, and not just some arbitrary, meaningless test subject, then what if the other three subjects are also not arbitrary? What if those other three subjects are other people who are important to her who she'd also want to have the benefits of the program. Those specific three people, no more and no less. An exact collective of three other individuals, one of which we can't account for, and the other two of which we know are having trouble with their memory. And not just a single instance of having trouble with their memory, but as of meeting here today, have proven to have had their altered memory restored to a state where they didn't know about each other.
