[ Only belatedly does she realize that such a subject probably can only lead to more questions; retroactively she regrets having admitted to her own situation and falters, though she recovers quickly. ]

No, not exactly. It's... a long story, and I'm still trying to work it out myself, but-- he didn't have amnesia. Those things just hadn't happened yet, for him.

[ Or that's the running theory, anyway. And she really should introduce him to that timeline thing because that would probably be the sensible course of action, but she's hardly sure about it, herself. She's still not totally certain whether to believe in that idea or that there's actual memory tampering going on, like there would be if she were in charge of things and had megalomaniacal urges. ]

[ Yu is a bit more pleasant a subject, however, and she brightens considerably to discover that he and this partner of Yosuke's are one and the same. (Maybe even as much as Yosuke does.) ]

Yes, I've met him...! Actually, he was one of the first people I met here, back in the other ViViD simulation. [ You know, the one with the people and monsters all trying to kill each other. ] I owe him my life. Or-- my simulated life, anyway.
