[Yuta looks... shaken. And judging by that ominously red-stained cloth he's holding up to the side of his forehead, he has a fairly good reason to be.]

...So I slipped. I think... I hit my head on the edge of the sidewalk. It happened so fast, and I was dizzy, and there was a lot of blood-

[There is a pause. He's still trying to sort all of this out.]

Anyway, some people saw it happen and came to help. They got me to the hospital somehow-- I don't remember too well - but something was weird.

[He slowly lowers the cloth. The wound is highly visible, but not what you would expect from one having been inflicted not too long ago. In fact, it looks reasonably well on the way to recovery. There are no signs of stitches, and yet it has not only stopped bleeding but also begun to heal somewhat.]

...Do people... usually heal faster here?

[He nods.]

I remembered a lot of ordinary things. My name, where I lived, my usual routines... But I don't remember healing any faster than most people. I was just... normal.

Very funny. But I walked myself back to my room, so it looks like you're just completely off the mark.

Because I don't know why it's happening. From what I remember, this is definitely not normal, so... now I'm wondering if something happened that I just haven't recalled yet.

You just said some people helped you get to the hospital! Idiot.

They helped me to the hospital, but I made it back to my room on my own. See?

[He taps the communicator just a bit to the side, so she can get a lovely view of that hotel background.]

Now who's the idiot?

You are. Naturally.

Idiot.

Is that the best comeback you can think of?

It's the best comeback I think your puny brain can comprehend.

Says the person who couldn't even tell I'm in the hotel. I don't have the camera zoomed in on myself that closely.

Your room is boring just like a hospital room!

It's a hotel room. What do you expect?

That's weird. Maybe something happened, to make it work that way...I don't know what it could be, though.

You're just boring and uncreative.

That's what I thought, too. But even that would mean something weird happened back home that I don't remember.

[A sigh.

This is just too bizarre.

What, is yours somehow different?

I'm sorry I can't be of more help.

I'm sure plenty of things have! That's the whole point of amnesia, you know.

Huh? Oh, it's fine. It's not your fault.

[Yuta looks about to make a retort, but he bites it back.]

...Yeah, I s'pose so.

I know. I wish I could help you, though.

Are you feeling alright now? Does it hurt somewhere?

[ MOTHER INSTINCTS ARE STRIKING SO HARD. ]

You bet it is!

[Relm takes the camera and pans it around her room, revealing many paintings, as well as quite a few scattered art supplies.]

After thinking about it, I don't think anyone here could.

I'll probably figure it out eventually. I just need to get more of my memories.

It's still sore, but it's nowhere near as bad as it was when I first got it.

[...Despite himself, Yuta's actually pretty impressed.]

Did you paint all of that?
