[Things have settled down. Between experiments, amusement parks, abductions and drafts, this is the first nice calm stretch of time he's had in a while. So Mulder's hanging out in the Battle Dome. He's been coming there a lot more lately. The new features interest him, and there are places from home he can't help revisiting. Not always to fight,

...something I can help you with?

[He hates these questions. Hates them. But...there's just enough of him that's too noble and too proud to lie when they come up.]

[Just prying into the next thing on his ever-growing list of things that bother him about this place.]

If you don't mind, Giles. I promise, I'm not out to make people relive their worst nightmares... but I'm interested in how their revivals work. You had just the one uh, incident here, right?

Re: [Voice - Locked 100%]

[consultmybooks]

[...

...

...]

Two incidents.

[Buffy knows. What does it matter?]

[Voice - Locked 100%]

[ufo_fanboy]

Was... that second one here, or at home?

[It's not like he's planning to let this information ever be known, at least, beyond compiling some basic facts from it.]

[voice]

[abidinglaw]

And just what do you intend to do with this information?

[voice]

[ufo_fanboy]

It's just a point of curiosity for me. There are so many mysteries to uncover about this place.

[Just the nice standard answer. He takes a moment to throw a filter on for the rest. He's sure that They might know what he's up to, but he may as well be cautious.]

[Filtered; 100%]

That, and I'm storing files on it, in hopes that it'll give some insight into how things really operate around here. It's all confidential, of course. I'm not attaching names to sensitive information.

[abidinglaw]

[The admiral can just about stand to use these journals at all - he has no skill with filters, and no care for them either.]

A noble effort, surely, but what recommends you above any of the others who have struggled and failed to glean the inner workings of this place?

[voice]

[ufo_fanboy]

[He'll just be throwing it back on at random soon enough if his paranoia level gets too high. Just wait.]

I'm not the only one trying to find those answers, but... I'd say we all go about seeking things in our own way. This just happens to be my method. Investigations like this are my life's work, back home.

[Voice]

[mistlegacy]

...you're right, it doesn't seem fair.

It didn't happen to me, but I had a housemate from home. I could try to answer some questions.

[Voice]

[ufo_fanboy]

Anything you know would be helpful. This housemate of yours, was he or she taken here from a time immediately following death?

[Voice]

[mistlegacy]

Yes, he was--at least, from his perspective. In my time, he had been dead for a while already.

[Voice]

[ufo_fanboy]

Ok, and did you ever get a chance to discuss this matter with him?

[If it was a friend of Mulder's he'd totally be pestering him all the time about the experience.]

[Voice]

[heavenslament]

...that really happens here?

[Voice]

[ufo_fanboy]

Yeah, it's been known to-

Terra? [What an odd thing to say.] Are you feeling all right?

[Voice]

[heavenslament]

...you know me, too.

[Sigh. She hates disappointing someone else, but she can't pretend.]

I just arrived here. People remember me, but...I don't remember them.

[Voice]

[ufo_fanboy]

[Well, thanks, Malnosso. There's always something, isn't there?]

I know it might seem far-fetched, but they remember you being here before. My name is Mulder.

[ufo_fanboy]

[Weird things are his specialty, you'll soon find.]

Details on how it impacts people. Anything they remember about the process, or how they're affected afterward.

[ufo_fanboy]

To see if I can gain any insight into the revivals. There's a lot about this place that defies explanation, and I'm investigating it.

...I won't be taking down names or anything like that. We can filter the details for confidentiality.
