so that's why you haven't told anyone much of anything
you remember more than you ever wanted to remember and it's probably stuff that would hurt everybody around you if you ever said a damn thing
yeah. maybe I get that
I already had people judging my life choices here. apparently that was a thing back then, too

not gonna ask you what you remember. not my place. but at the same time it starts to eat at you a little, doesn't it? not knowing if you can rely on anybody to know everything because of the damage it'd cause.
I lied to Thalia a lot. she knew that. she punched me in the face for it
but I'd do it all again to keep her safe.

did you know that hermes is the god of thieves and the god of liars?
and did you know he was just as shitty of a father as my actual dad? trying to figure out how I got so damn lucky.

it's why we ran away. something went wrong, so I ran away when I was 9 in that life. I met Thalia a few years later, and then we met Annabeth
it's written in the diary I got back. that thing keeps filling in with new memories every time I get them. freaky as fuck

this isn't where I'm supposed to be either. but at least here I'm in control and not doing things I would come to regret, maybe
we're in an in between, you think? like the train station between lives. maybe that's why this place changes the way it does
science can't explain it. I've asked
maybe the plot will never make sense but that's why we're going to keep trying
it's also why I'm giving you my notes. there's a few people who might be interested in them in the future, too, but i'll leave that up to you

heh. right. my bad. I worked on borrowed time back then, so I wouldn't know
there was a prophecy once...and based on context clues I think I understand it
things that happened there were always destined to happen no matter how hard I tried
the Luke in that universe fought it, I think. still fucked up and burned shit in his path if I had to guess, but he fought it. I think.
it's all guesswork though. context clues. one foot in and one foot out until you fall one way or another
I'm not good at philosophy, but I'm good at theorizing sometimes

and thanks. I've been perfecting my cagey asshole routine for years so I'm glad my score's that high
is it really all that ominous?
