There’s a generic spread of food on a table off to one side of the room: donuts, muffins, bagels, and cookies; coffee, lemonade, water, and because one of the Different asked for it, hot chocolate. Maybe you’re hungry enough to try it—it’s free after all.

Or maybe you can’t stomach anything, given the event you’re attending.

The space is a local rec center. The beige-painted cinder block walls and the fluorescent lighting are a terrible combination. Maybe they are reminiscent of the public school you attended in your youth?

Why are you here? Curiosity? Maybe the Bureau official will say something that will help you make sense of things? The meeting was interesting—who knew there were so many people like you, receiving memories of a past life? The group was led by someone from The Bureau—the Department of Medical Services. Some people are staying in their chairs and chatting—they must know each other from previous meetings. Some of them are gravitating towards the food.

How do you feel about tonight? Has it helped you come to terms with the dream of memories you’re having? Maybe it’s time to talk to others, get an understanding of their experience.

Lisa's eyebrows go up into her bangs. He'd just met her less than five minutes ago, and he's talking about pulling strings? This guy is scary. Nice, supportive, but scary. And so while part of her wants to take the offer-

"I appreciate it, but with everything going on with, well-" she gestures around her at the meeting- "I should probably wait a bit before I depend on your goodwill, yeah? I don't wanna go for it and then something stupid happens with all this. I'll keep that in mind, though - that's a big deal and I'd be stupid not to take you up on it once things are stable." She smiles at him, taking a breath. "That's quite a rise, though. Rags to riches, huh?"
