Hey, Willow! Sorry for takin' so long, I think I've got something workin' most of the time. Bit busy last week.

[Between apple picking, scavenging and crisis management... what he wouldn't give for some nice convenient civilization.] Can send it by if ya wanna take a look.

Second order a business: anybody here keep chickens, and how much you want in trade for a layin' hen or two? I can try scavengin' up some stuff for ya, bang together furniture, your call. Any other kind of bird's fine too, just so long as the eggs're a decent size. Thanks.

Look what I found. [He lifts up a dusty, slightly cobwebbed and partly empty bottle with an metal screw cap. The label's too mold-stained to read, but the color is a rich brown.] From the smell it's some kinda liquor. Think you'd be up for helpin' me figure out if it's any good?

Beat told me he had a sister, and he went back into the Game to get her.

Mm. Yeah, that's true as far as it goes... what his sister thoughta him was so important her memories got taken for his entry fee, ya see.

Really?

[Her eyes go wide.]

I wonder if that would have happened to my brother.

Could be.

What'd he look like?

He was kinda muscular, and really tall. I wear a lot of his hand-me-downs.

[Hanekoma's just waiting to see what thinking about that lack will do. There's always a certain patchwork quality to partial memory alterations; look at things from the right angle and you notice they aren't whole.

Won't do anything to restore what's missing, of course, but she's a smart enough girl to add two and two.]
