013: Trying to get back to "normal"

[captain_in_you]

For any of you who have been taken by our hosts recently, could you tell me about your experience? Did you have any lasting effects, physical or mental? How long did they last?

[Meant to be private but really not because Jack's mind isn't back in order yet.]This is really bad. I need to get back to normal. Well. As normal as I get. Can't sleep

Memory can be a tricky thing.

[He's pretty much realized that everyone can read what he wrote earlier.] Yeah, it can. Especially when other people are messing around with it. You had any experience with what they do here?

No, but I have some experience with tampering with memories.

As in you've had it done to you, or you've done it to someone else?

I - They stole my feelings. [Pause.] I think everything is back now, but it took me most of a week to even realize anything was missing, so... I'm not sure.

[captain_in_you]

...they can even...?

That's... I'm sorry. That's really hard. Was it recent?

[Voice]

[i_speak_softly]

Yes, it was only a few days ago that they came back enough for me to notice they had been gone. I'm still trying to... [He trails off, then starts again with a different sentence.] I think I said some regrettable things.

People will understand. I'm sure they noticed something wasn't right, y'know?

[Let's pretend this is when I originally posted, y/y? Also, she's skipping a few steps.]

Wait, you're not...!

Yako? I'm all right, don't worry.

[foodovermystery]

Don't lie to me.

...well, I'll be all right, really. I'm doing better. Talking, at least, that's an improvement over a couple days ago.
