WEEK 3

[lockdownmods]

 [ Week 3 rolls around the corner-- with all the loss of joy after the trial. Can you keep up hope after everything that's happened? On top of that... it would seem that that whatever has effected your memories here-- it's beginning to wear away.

You're not stuck in the same place forever. Ssssort of, anyway. The stairs in the main building appear to have been uplocked and now... now you have access to a whole new floor of rooms. At least that's something!

Welcome to week three of the semester.]

Oh? Did you want to talk about it?

[ ... Huh. ]

Mine didn't talk to me... even though I know he could. [ Should he feel insulted, Morgana? ]

[swordsinternally]

Yeah. I don't mind. It was a short sentence, anyway. She said something about how I... don't remember who I am. But that's weird, isn't it? How can I be someone else other than me?

[covertizer]

...

[ Um. Hm? ]

That's a weird statement. Unless there's something in the memories they've taken from you that suggests otherwise, you're still Emiya.

I know I'm still me...

[swordsinternally]

Yeah, it's definitely weird. Maybe I'll hopefully remember it if those words really have any actual meaning. But I want to believe that... I'm actually Emiya Shirou. Not anybody else.

[ He can't possibly be anyone besides himself, right? ]

[covertizer]

If you say you are then... why should you think you're anyone else?

[ Who knows - they're missing whole chunks of their own memories, but... ]

For what it's worth, I only know one Emiya Shirou. I can't think of who else he could be.

[swordsinternally]

You're right, Kurusu. [ He tries to smile, even though he knows it's something forced. ] Thanks.

[covertizer]

[ A smile is better than no smile in this case. So he just... reaches out and taps Shirou's chin, light and fleeting. ]

Just keep remembering that. Hallucinations are just that. They're not actually there, no matter how unsettling they may be.

[swordsinternally]

I'll... try to remember that.

[ "Try" being the key word here. ]

[covertizer]

That's better than nothing.
