Huh . . . it does sounds similar. But I don't think the place we were even had a name.

Nahhh, nothin' like that.

Guess that's one thing we can rule out for sure.

Mmm.

[nods to the board] Bro's got his own, s'got some different stuff but this is what we've been doin' since we realized the visions are our memories.

I plan on usin' the shore leave to try'n confirm some things, like seein' if things like the people we remember actually exist there. If they do, that doesn't necessarily debunk a buncha shit — just gives us more to chew on.

If they don't, people are gonna freak out.

[ breathes out slowly ]

And we don't know how many of them might be Legends too. There have been enough for three trips now, and the Showmaster didn't seem too stressed about the idea of starting over with a fourth.

She did say that we always come back, too.

[ just sort of flops back on the bed, watching them for now. he has nothing to add. ]

...yeah. And, weirdly, I believe her on that one.

Ain't weird at all, 'cuz I believe her too.

Hell, she don't gotta make me. They got somethin' of mine I want back.

That's been my attitude. Fuck y'all, that's mine. Give it back.

For real. I want my memories back. And more than that...

[ looks at gray ]

...I meant what I said. I'm coming back to this ship until this whole thing is done. Remembering more about myself just made me even more sure about that. We will be the last set of performances.

Why ain't I surprised.

[also glances at Gray]

But I think we both agree with that.

Damn right we'll be the last. Whoever did this is gonna pay out the ass.

Oh, yeah. It'll be fun getting a little payback.

Gotta teach 'em they fucked with the wrong guys this time.

[ cackles where he's laying.

hell yeah. ]

[ hold on gotta fistbump ore and also gray ]

[hahaha cute. Fistbumps!]

[ yeahhhh, fistbumps!! ]

[ hehehehe

and, actually not a non-sequitur — ]

So what's the theory on powers in visions? Not blessings, like, stuff vision guys can do.

[tilts his head]

Can't say I've given that too much thought. Bro?

Innate abilities or shit we picked up. From one of my visions, I was talkin' with someone 'bout how I'd picked up some "new tricks."

[ shrugs. ]

Somethin' I wanna test, but there ain't no way ta really do it.

[ #foreshadowing ]

I guess either. It's like...

[ paces a few steps ]

...in my memories, my father is the sea god. He's one of the oldest, and most powerful, of the Olympians. Earthshaker, Stormbringer, Father of Horses. I have powers relating to all of those aspects of his. I'm strongest at sea — I should be strongest at sea. Not trying to brag, but there's a lot of power I could bring to the equation if those aren't gone in Estoria. [ ... ] And, honestly? I've felt wrong ever since my last batch of memories. Like I'm really missing a part of me that I should have.

Hooh. [finally steps over to the bed to sit down]

You'd think that kinda shit would come back along with the visions. 'Specially since they're causin' the physical changes to come back.
