It's the fucking worst, I'm so sick of this shit. What's next, Merle's gonna turn up but like, he'll be a teenager before he even joined the IPRE.
I told Lucretia about it. What I didn't tell her is that I've got ichor left over from Fisher Jr. We can let him remember but we should all talk before we do anything. Until then I'm gonna keep playing the "I know you in the future" card cause it's the LEAST insane option.
Please don't jinx it. Teen Merle is like, the nightmare scenario.
Yeah, we gotta talk about this shit. I mean, it should be his choice, right? These memory things are weird and Maggie should know what's going on first.
I can't believe he's the one closest to you in time, though... but not remembering you.
[It's a dumb joke but honestly he needs to make dumb jokes right now.]
How the fuck do we even explain this shit? I had a year of knowing about the voidfish and knowing I had missing memories and like, lich Barry dropping cryptic clues to help me piece it together. Magnus is coming into this a total clean slate.
I don't even know, you know more than I do. Maybe just... tell him about his past. I stalked his replies and he seemed to be confused on where he came from aside from Raven's Roost, so we could pick from there.
I don't think Davenport existed as a teen, he just popped out fully formed as an adult gnome.
[This sucks.]
It sounds fucking insane though, travelling to other realities. Maybe Lucretia will have some ideas.
[It's weird, but having Magnus here makes him want to slip back into just... doing whatever the hell the Director told them to. It was a lot easier than dealing with shit like this.]
Magnus is the only one of us who got outta this better than we went in.
[Taako got really fucked up, losing his memories of Lup, Davenport lost everything, and even if Merle has kids now, he seems to be a hell of a lot more bitter and jaded than he was on the Starblaster. But Magnus was still Magnus, he was able to build a life for himself without them and even if he ended up losing Julia...
It seems like an awful thing, to remind him of everything they've suffered through.]
He's just a guy right now. A normal guy, not even off to the 'first' adventure yet. It's like... he'll see himself lose his wife, won't he? All the times we all died.
It's a shitload to put on someone who thought he was a carpenter.
[All those memories at once - Lup is worried it would crush him.]
I think we should wait a bit, see how he does here. Answer his questions but not push too much? I was weirded out by the shit you told me, and Magnus will be even more so.

Luce hasn't even experienced the last sixty years yet. I'm not sure if she can help there... but she does have good ideas.

It's just... should we fuck up his world like this? Is that right?

I dunno, Lup. Maybe we should wait? If I get more from my future, at least I can tell him if we survive.

Def. checking with Luce, though.

Wanna go out tonight to get fucked up before Lucretia's back and we have to be responsible and shit again?
