exsilium | 09 △ VIDEO | FORWARD DATED TO THE 19TH

[ Whoa, who's this guy showing up on your tablet screen all of a sudden... Adam Jensen after surgically getting the shades removed and somehow changing his eyecolor to blue-gray, it seems. He frowns deeply. ]

Hi. I've got something of a weird request. Probably.

[ ...Somehow he sounds different, too. Slightly less gravel, and is that inflection in his voice... ]

Guess I shouldn't be surprised given the nature of this place--or maybe it's really just me and premature Alzheimer's or something, but I'm having trouble recalling some things.

[ He briefly raises a hand--a perfectly normal, flesh and blood hand, at that--to his temple to rub at it. ]

...So if some of the guys I was talking to before could help jog my memory, I'd appreciate it. I'll be... at the precinct, in my office. Working. [ Yeah, still confused, but what can you do. As an afterthought before ending the feed, ]

It's probably a long shot, but I don't suppose anyone's seen or heard of Dr. Megan Reed? Just--

[ Yeah probably not. ]

...Nevermind.

[ And off he goes. Click. ]

(( ooc: forward dated with mod permission because next week will be busy for me! And just as a note, while I might use icons of augmented Adam, that's just because there isn't too much iconable material of pre-augs Adam. Until the end of the event he will have no roboparts or shades whatsoever and look like a completely ordinary human--and a few years younger. ))

...So you're saying you just arrived here. How the hell would I have been at a party in another's world?

Maybe you're from Wyander. How should I know without knowing you?

I'm not--I'm originally from Detroit. So I suppose we can cross out any 'parties'.

[ Okay now he's just confused. He touches his forehead briefly. ]

Maybe I'm mistaking you for someone else.

Oh, yes? Just how many "elves" do you know?

A couple. Though none of them very... intimately.

[ HE THINKS ]

You're certain, with that spotty memory of yours?

No. But even then, I wouldn't remember, so does it matter? I'm sure good times were had by all.

Well, how am I supposed to know if I should ask for a repeat performance, if I can't remember the quality of the first?

Suppose you'll have to live with the torturous lack of knowledge as it will forever remain a mystery if you're missing out, then.

[ Also that wasn't an invitation Vanadi. ]

We might always try dinner together. Just to refresh our memories, you understand.

[ not sure if want.......

on the other hand, Adam really wants to remember because this is bugging him. ]

... If you're paying.

It would be a shame on the house of Vadarta if I invited you out without paying.

Fine then.

[ Just don't get your hopes up man. ]

Good! Now, I hope you have a favorite restaurant, because -- [ with a laugh ] --I really have no idea where I am.

... Then why don't get to know your new surroundings first, then. I'd rather not waste any time playing tour guide.

[ not least because he's not entirely sure about restaurants and places to go himself... ]
