According to Aurora, Echo loses something every time they bring someone in.

And don't bother asking her if there's a way to get back whatever the fuck you lose if you die. She said revival breaks the natural order of the world, so that's why there's a cost.

[There, important information disseminated. He needs a coffee.]

I'm well-aware. I'm just used to working on a much smaller scale. An operation of that scale was a new one for me.

So... private stuff. Got it. [ Should he apologize again? Probably not. He's not going to. ] That's important to know. That it's mental, not physical. How do you know you forgot?

[levelshift]

It could've gone a lot worse than it did.

[S - so good job, Riz! It wasn't a bloodbath. Yay??]

I was thinking about something and noticed holes in my memories. [Someones, actually, but details.] It's stuff I knew I should know, so the change was really obvious to me. I talked to Aurora after that and that confirmed it for me.

[stresstokens]

I guess. Things can always go a lot worse. I can think up like fifteen different ways.

Got it. So they don't actually tell you, but they'll confirm it if you stumble upon it organically. [ ... ] Sorry, dude. That's shit. It's not like that at all where I'm from.

There are psychiatric terms for that kind of thinking.

[Riz, that's a little intense.]

I'm not sure Aurora would know. Anyways, it's not a big deal. I'm used to living with the consequences of my fucking actions.

[stresstokens]

It's called preparedness. It pays off!

[ It's not great, Accelerator!!!! ]

If you say so. Thanks for the heads up, in any case. We'll be as careful as we can going forward.

[levelshift]

Yeah, sure.

[God, why is it dying is such a pain in the ass.]
