My last name is Sartre. I grew up with my father Albert and my brother Erhard in Maine. He's eight years older than me and was in college and already a surgeon when he was sixteen. He'd sometimes help my dad research something in my blood. I mostly just saw him during the summers, but I saw my dad every day. He'd help me with my homework if I needed it, and sometimes had bedtime stories. I went to Cumberland Elementary School until I was eight. My teacher's name was Mrs. Scherer. Then my dad quit working as a professor at Cumberland College and we moved to Mexico so that he could continue his research there, although my brother stayed in Maine for school.

Not bad for someone who supposedly can't remember anything before the age of 15, huh? Guess this place must've done something to reset my amnesia so I could remember everything instead of stuff only after showing up at Providence!

Ooh, that sounds megas interesting! Gots to admit, you didn't strike me as a "Sartre," though!

[third_alternative]

Me neither--it doesn't sound like a Mexican last name! At least, I think I'm from Mexico, anyway.

But hey, it's better than nothing.

[life_is_megas_wonderful]

I guess. Maybe yer Dad was French and yer Mom was Mexican! That woulds make sense, right?

[third_alternative]

Half-French, half-Mexican?

Guess so. Not sure, though. I don't remember my mother...

[life_is_megas_wonderful]

That's okay, I'm sure'll it'll come back soon enough! Funny, though, your story sounds kinda like it'd fit more someone else I know!

[third_alternative]

Yeah? Who?

[life_is_megas_wonderful]

Seems kinda like something Rozy would say! Funny, huh? I just gots a hunch about it.

*thinks he knows what's going on but isn't sure yet*

[trustycrowbar]

[Wait... he remembers Rosalia mentioning a blood-bourne illness at one point...]

You... you sure about all that, Rex? That's a lot of stuff to remember all at once.

shiiiiiit wrong icon <_>

[third_alternative]

Well, yeah. I've remembered more than that at once before. Why? Maybe you're just...jealous that I remembered all that about my family?

[trustycrowbar]

[He grumbles. At one point he would have been, maybe, but now...]

I'm not JEALOUS. Something funny's going on lately, is all. Some of us are getting some pretty wacky memories that don't coincide with their previous once at all!

[third_alternative]

So what are you trying to say?

[Rex knows what he's trying to say, he just doesn't want to believe it.]

[trustycrowbar]

...I got some memories of my own earlier that couldn't possibly be mine, Rex, and I think I'm not the only one. It could be a screwup at the Labs, I don't know, I was off duty at the time... or...

Wait. Did you see that phantom train thing earlier today? Yesterday, sometime? Damn thing tried to run ME over. Technically it succeeded but... well... it's a phantom train.

[third_alternative]

Yeah? So what? That thing practically tries running us over on a weekly basis! It's not exactly something new around here.

[A lot of that sure does sound familiar. Disturbingly familiar. It could be a coincidence, but...how many other kids have parents and siblings with the same name, or something special in their blood? There's an audible element of nervousness when she speaks.]

Were you--were you adopted, too?

[Video]

[third_alternative]

Don't think so, but I haven't remembered anything to do with that.

Why?

[Video]

[healeveryone]

Because that's the name of my dad, and my brother...I know my dad and I moved to Mexico for a while, too, for the same reason you just said. That's weird, isn't it?

[Video]

[third_alternative]

That is weird. Maybe you're my sister and we just haven't remembered each other yet?

[There isn't much resemblance. But then again, there isn't much resemblance between him and his father or brother, either.]

[Video]

[healeveryone]

Maybe. That would make a lot of sense, but I don't remember ever talking about another brother besides Erhard. Unless I don't remember that either?

[Video]

[third_alternative]

Probably just haven't remembered it. I mean, what else could it be?

[mokomanjuu]

Your brother's a pretty smart guy, huh?

[third_alternative]

Well, yeah. Going to college and being a surgeon at 16 definitely qualifies as "pretty smart."

[mokomanjuu]

Did you want to be a doctor like him?

[third_alternative]

Nah. Those scrubs you have to wear, and the surgical mask? Not really my style.

[mokomanjuu]

Mokona wouldn't want to cover up her face either. Being cute is a terrible burden~
