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.

Martin didn't really think much of saying anything - it seemed a valid enough concern, after all, now that he really understood how useless these sessions were for him.

He caught Anakin's expression, but took it in stride, smiling. "Do I have donut crumbs in my beard again, dear boy?"

Martin was not getting the hint. So Anakin stood up.

"I want to leave, and you're my ride, so-" And without saying anything more, he shouldered his backpack and started heading towards the door, hoping Martin would get the hint this time.

"Whu--"

His mouth froze in an 'o' of surprise, eyebrows raised as he watched Anakin move for the door. It took a moment for his brain to process what was going on, and he got to his feet, scurrying after him, one hand dipping into his pocket for his keys. Once they were outside the meeting room, he reached out and caught Anakin's arm - gently, just enough to slow him down.

"What's going on? Why are we leaving?"
darkforcerising: (Judging you)

"To get far enough away from any Bureau person so we can talk," Anakin said. He'd slowed, but he kept pressing on. On so they could get out of this building and somewhere where they could talk.
