It's only creeping up on too strange now? You, sir, must have a high bar for that. Either way, Charle nods in appreciation to the man. Strange though she may be, she's thankful!
"We're definitely connected, somehow!" Maya agrees, nodding. She puffs her cheeks, thinking about what she wants to say. "Friends of mine got other little animal friends like this, too... One is a blue puppy with a diamond on his head, and a little bear with a clover! And of course, Charle here has a heart..."
She tilts her head to one side. "My friend Rachel proposed that Charle must be named after the King of Hearts, Charles, and they're all connected to cards somehow but..."
She makes empty motions with her hands. "Connecting the dots there is another thing."
There are more of them? Togusa looks briefly surprised, but he eventually nods. Playing cards? It's an interesting idea and maybe something else that Togusa can keep an eye out for. But he smiles gently in sympathy at Maya's last comment. "It's got to be frustrating when you're just getting little bits and pieces of memory without any greater context." Glances at Charle, "for both of you. But I'm sure you'll figure it out."
He holds out his hands to gesture at the both of them. "It's good, though, that you two already knew that you were friends. Everything Retrospec is doing will be easier to deal with, if you've got somebody going through it with you." He smiles again, trying to be reassuring. "I think we're all gonna be okay, so long as we all keep talking to each other. But sometimes there's no substitute for a really close confidant."
"Boy, is it ever!" Maya nods, agreeing with that first part. She could certainly ELABORATE, but she's not going to throw an infodump at the man unless prompted.
She blinks a little bit at his next few comments, but smiles brightly in response. Charle does as well, albeit a little more hesitantly. "Yeah, that's true! This is all really scary, but it'd be a lot more so if I didn't have people to fall back on... and knowing I always have someone now is a little bit reassuring!"
Togusa's eyebrows raise in curiosity. "Oh yeah? I haven't been remembering anything at all, so, if it's none of my business," he holds up a hand, "then just tell me. But I'm kind of curious about what other people have been seeing."
It's genuine curiosity, since Togusa, himself, has no sort of clue about himself, where he fits in to the picture of what everyone else is going through. There's a joke going around that he might be part of a control group, which is feeling like less of a joke every day.
wh-- how did I copy that link into my last post
