(On thinking of playing the character again, thinking of apping to The Wake again)

[crawfordstone]

I know what you're thinkin', and no. You just stop right fuckin' there.

Gimmie some peace for once.

(Edit)

OH FUCK YOU! Just FUCK. YOU.

I'm not goin' back there and re-learnin' everything from square fuckin' one!

NO!

I won't do it!

So you're actually coming b--

2/3

[deusrexmachina]

Wait. Is your mun seriously going to reset your memories?

3/3

[deusrexmachina]

Oh come on! That already happened once! ...sorta. Kinda.

Re: 3/3

[crawfordstone]

'Least THAT had a chance of gettin' fixed. But this, they're not gonna be buried. Just flat out fuckin' gone.

[deusrexmachina]

Man... If that happens, I'm gonna have to pretend I don't know you for a while. People always get ticked off or frustrated when they come back and can't remember anything about Nautilus, but we remember them. It's just way too awkward.

[crawfordstone]

Been through worse. Just don't let me pick a fight with those walking tin cans again.

[deusrexmachina]

The Cybertronians? Yeah, I can try. Well, at least with most of them. Sideswipe's still a huge jerk, so anything involving him won't end well.

[Of course he says this without being one hundred percent sure his own mun won't do something to screw things up.]

[crawfordstone]

Yeah. Them. What about that real annoying fucker. Space Scream or whatever the fuck his name was. He still there?

[deusrexmachina]

[Right. Sometimes hard to have one's friends be friends with one another. Sigh.]

Starscream's been gone for a while. He left to explore and get Ashura work done beyond the city.

[crawfordstone]

Means I won't have to deal with his sorry ass.

[ He fussed with his lighter a moment, looking troubled about something. ]

As much as I wanna forget shit like that, it means I gotta forget people like V. And Roxas. And all the people that did right by me.

[deusrexmachina]

Yeah, and as a guy with plenty of amnesia related problems, I can say that it's better to remember the good and the bad instead of forgetting it all.

Roxas has been gone for a long time, but V's still hanging around. Knowing him, even if you don't remember him, he'll still do what he can to continue to do right by you.

[crawfordstone]

[ He manages a small smile. ]

Never know, kid. You just never know...

I'd ask what's changed, but it won't fuckin' matter. I'm not gonna remember it.

[freedomtoleave]

It seems to be a common theme of late. You are not the only one affected by the desire to start again.

[crawfordstone]

It ain't my desire to restart a damn thing. But it ain't like I've got a fuckin' choice.

Just glad it ain't that shit hole we were stuck in. Or...what the fuck is 'Ariel'? She keeps threatin' to send me there, instead.

[freedomtoleave]

I would have thought a human would enjoy such a place. Isn't a lack of negative consequence appealing to your people?

[crawfordstone]

Are you fuckin' crazy?! There was a giant fuckin' pile of 'negative consequence' in that place! Or did you forget that whole thing with the orb and the feathers and you thinkin' I was stupid and powerful enough to pull that shit off.

[freedomtoleave]

I was referring to the city of Ariel.

[crawfordstone]

What the hell IS it? All I know is that Dane's been rantin' up a storm over here and it sounds like some seriously fucked up Brave New World/1984 brain washing crap.

[freedomtoleave]

Unless I'm mistaken, you awake with a chip implanted in your body that makes you prone to sexual liaisons. Hence why I assumed that human would be pleased to visit.

[crawfordstone]

[ He looks stunned for a moment, as if trying to process that. Then, he explodes. ]

It WHAT?!

[freedomtoleave]

Judging by your reaction, I suspect that you hear me correctly.

[crawfordstone]

Oh FUCK no! I'd rather go back to that pit of fuckin' nightmares than go anywhere near THAT!

[freedomtoleave]

Good luck, Crawford Sands.

[crawfordstone]

I SAID I'M NOT GOING!

[freedomtoleave]

I'm not the one you ought to be attempting to convince.

[crawfordstone]

Thank fucking god she's fickle. Already sending me somewhere else.

...There's a Lucifer listed here. Please tell me that's you and not that sleaze pile from John's world.

[freedomtoleave]

He is not me, though you may find that there are quite a few similarities between us. Still, I should warn you. He is somewhat less tolerant of humanity than I.

[crawfordstone]

Fuckin' great. Just what I need. MORE of you not-human bastards that're gonna hate me just cause I had the fuckin' audacity to be born human.

[freedomtoleave]

Look on the proverbial bright side. There are just as many who would side with you as would side against you. More, perhaps.

[crawfordstone]

[ Derisive snort. ] Doubt that.
