[Friend Filter. If you think you're on it, you're on it.]

Everyone doing okay? I don't know if this is a flood or a gasleak or just something driving people a little crazy, but I figured I should check in anyway.

Anyone notice any turbulence? Got any theories? Figure we should get right down to it before people start really panicking.

[Private to Tim]

Still worrying about Bruce? [Which is basically his way of asking if you're doing okay specifically.]

[Private to Costigan]

Checking in, buddy. Everything still in one piece, or are you missing some stuff?

[Private to Mal]

So, got any theories on why Arthur's quoting poetry and acting kind of... spacey and super paranoid? [You'd know, right awesome nice lady who knows Arthur?]

[Stops laughing, then is silent for a long moment.] I worked foah Costello. He was this crime lord in Bahstan. This prick Sullivan, some statie bastard, sold me out after I cut a deal with him when Costello died. You know this shit.

[Gently:] That's not what happened, Costigan. I have your file, I can show it to you. I think you have a copy of it too, or someone showed it to you before I got here. Do you keep any notes or files on what goes on here?

I have some outdated files about some people, but nothing-- [Loooooooooong pause as he reads his note to himself.]

I don't understand. What the fuck is going on?

I don't know. But Arthur's totally lost his mind, people are forgetting stuff and records aren't matching up with what people are remembering. Buffy thought it could be Barron, but I'm not convinced, Martha suggested Nanomites someone stole from Rex, but I doubt it's that either.

... Howie thinks we're all just going crazy because this place is stressful, but I'm sorry, I've been through a lot in my life, and I've never just invented new memories to help me cope with something.

It can't just be a flood?

;private

[batmanschmatman]

It could be. How often has the Admiral not made announcements about floods? I know he didn't back in February [lol not mentioning the love flood specifically as per our agreement. >>] but every other one I've been around for, he's said something about.

It's rare, but it happens.

Are you okay?

;private

[lostundercover]

Yeah, I'm alright. Just tryin' to figuhe it all out.

;private

[batmanschmatman]

Me too. I'll let you know if I find out anything more. Stay safe, okay?

Thanks. You too.
