[ KICKS DOWN DOOR

nah just kidding he's not that rude (today). does try to find Nue tho. wya old man ]

[throughbamboo]

[WOW RUDE.

But no he's at the far end of Clover's fence, smoking away]

[failsaver]

You're gonna shrivel up your lungs smokin' so much.

[throughbamboo]

[glances over]

Maybe, but I don't smoke as much as ya think.

[failsaver]

I don't think. Consider yourself safe, just this once!

[throughbamboo]

Sounds like bullshit ta me.

[failsaver]

Nah. Here's the real bullshit. You ready?

[throughbamboo]

Guess so. What bullshit?

[failsaver]

I used to be a Weed.

[throughbamboo]

. . . hah?

[failsaver]

I used to be a Weed!

[throughbamboo]

Since when?

[failsaver]

.................. it's complicated?

[throughbamboo]

Then un-complicate it.

[failsaver]

Um. Once upon a time, Blossom and the Snake brought me here. 'cept it wasn't me-me. It was some older and stupider alternate version of me. Huuuge memory gaps. Guy must have fucked up big time in his timeline.

[ makes a face. even if that wasn't him, the thought of himself not remembering... ]

He was here for two, three days? Bet on some ritual involvin' prisoners.

When I got my name back... I didn't get anything cool. Just his memories of his time here in the pasture.

[throughbamboo]

[okay yeah that's complicated]

The fuck, kid.

Wait . . . but if he ain't you, then why'd ya get his memories?

[failsaver]

Fuck if I know. Didn't even get the Weed powers back.

Maybe stuff got mixed up 'cause we share a Name?

[throughbamboo]

I mean, technically ya never had 'em.

Still don't make a whole lot of sense, but nothin' here ever does.

[failsaver]

Tell me 'bout it! I'm even more confused than I was before.

[ rubs his head ]

That guy makes me look smart.

[throughbamboo]

What, he a big ol' dumbass?

[failsaver]

He's a yapper. Was, will be a yapper? Acted like he'd never spent a day out in the real world.

Spent most of his time here chasin' down someone that was tryna self-isolate 'cause they fucked up and hurt people they liked.

[throughbamboo]

So, a big ol' dumbass.

[a curious noise] That person still here?

[failsaver]

Oh, they're very much still here.

[throughbamboo]

Huh. They know 'bout all this?

[failsaver]

Kiiiinda? They've always treated me and the dumbass as different. But I guess they're... grateful to that guy, in their own way. They're not runnin' away from their feelings any more. And they keep lookin' out for me in the weirdest ways, even though we're barely more than strangers.

They don't know I got his memories, though.
