Tamu: Juni, what's the earliest thing you remember from the past, oh, several days?

Juni: Waking up in the hospital... I felt sore all over, and for some reason I could not remember my name.

Tamu: Yes, that was after a seizure, after we decided to try a temporary memory suppression.

Juni: "We" meaning... ?

Tamu: You and me, of course. Who else?

Juni: Tamu, may I ask a question which might seem a bit strange?

Tamu: You've never needed my permission for that.

Juni: Mmh. Am I the original Juni Melrose?

Tamu: That is strange. Yes, of course. Who else could you be?

Juni: Sometimes I feel like I'm just a puppet, that the real Juni is trying to control me.

Tamu: I see.

Juni: And it's getting rather frustrated.

Tamu: I... see.

Juni: You do?

Tamu: No, not really.

Tamu: Why do you feel like you're not the real Juni?

Juni: Many things. "Randomly" ending up in Kajoshu when I was trying to just go North, other-me telling me I needed to bring my mother here... and she says my [sparkle]'s different.

Juni: And then I've been having these dreams lately.

Juni: I'm always in this... space, and there's another Juni, who I think is the real one. Sometimes it tells me cryptic messages, but lately it's angry and it wants its body back.

Juni: Oh, and in Kajoshu, other-me said, "The real Juni is still alive!" That's what got me thinking, maybe I'm "the other Juni?"

Tamu: Well, Juni...

Tamu: Dreams can be influenced by many things, often taken out of context.

Tamu: For example, the simulation said that to *me*, about *you*, and mind you I *still* don't understand how it was able to relay between us. But perhaps you simply misconstrued it.

Juni: Hm, well, it *did* say it in blue...

Tamu: ...

Tamu: Yes, quite.
