Everything seems too recent in the memories I get. If it was a past life, then the technology should at least be older. But with a parallel universe things could be running co-currently. And it would account for the people who see weird stuff, like monsters and zombies.
Majima and I talk about it pretty often. If you ask me, it feels like the past but not the past. It's weird, but I don't know that I'd mind if the me I remember is actually me.
[That's probably the thing that scares him the most about these memories. How nicely the settle into his brain, like they think they belong there, squishing up against the memories that constitute his current life.]
Well, I'm glad yours aren't bothering you the way mine are. The other you must be a super amazing guy if he's able to improve on you any.
[ But at least everyone seems to be going through a similar thing, so there's that. ]
Thanks. [ Kaz scratches the back of his neck... ] I think other me must've had a lot of crazy stuff happen to him because most of what I've remembered has been pretty odd...

[ Like fighting tigers with your bare hands. ]
Right. Sucks to be woken up by it, though. I'm sorry.

Tell me about it. I have work in the morning. This couldn't have waited until a more convenient point in my sleep cycle? Like when I'm wide awake?
But thanks for listening to me gripe about this, Kaz.

[ He nods, holding his hand out for the empty ice cream container. ]
I'll throw this out for you, you should get some sleep if you can.
no subject
Yeah, I'll try.
[he finally hauls his butt off the floor and sits on the futon]
How are you doing with all of this?
no subject
[ He shrugs. Things could be worse, certainly. ]

Well, I remembered fighting two tigers with my fists.
[ That's definitely The Oddest. ]

That is badass.

It was pretty cool. Random, but cool.

[Tatsuo yawns]
I shouldn't keep you up. You've got work tomorrow, too.

[ Kiryu nods. It is pretty late. ]
No worries. I'll see you tomorrow, Tatsuo. Sleep well.
