[ she'll busy herself with the cooking process before she says anymore, especially since she wants to think about what was exchanged first. ]
I could also be misunderstanding them, but that's what they told me when I asked whether or not we could exchange our memories for abilities or information like they did.
[ the rice isn't quite ready yet, but she'll put a few slices of of a toasted baguette she had from earlier onto a plate where she dishes out a few of the fresher rolls of egg for sora to have. this time, she puts a pair of chopsticks and a fork on the plate for him to use. ]
[he'll patiently wait for the rice, but he does pick up one of the bread slices since at least he can eat that with his hands.]
"Nova has power." That could mean anything. [...wait, there's a bigger point here though.] Would you really trade your memories for something like that?
[ that's fine, she'll keep making little egg rolls until she's out of the batter before turning off the stove and putting the pan and bowl aside to be cleaned after they've had their talk. only waiting for the rice now. ]
Maybe if I got to pick what memories I could give up.
[ she says automatically but makes it obvious that isn't her final answer as she sighs as she crosses her hands across her chest. ]
But even then, the pay out for that kind of exchange wouldn't be worth it to me.
[rice takes so long...but it's fine. he's grateful for the food if his expression is anything to go by and now he's just focused on the topic.]
I don't think it'd be worth it to me either. [memories are very important.] Our memories are what makes us who we are, so to willingly give them up just for power or information doesn't seem right.
Fox told me that as we got nova and started stabilizing the Realm it should help restore their memories, too. So if we did that, they might be able to help us gather more nova and leave faster once they remembered what they left behind.
but hm. she'll think over his words and about the situation. it certainly sounds like an easy fix. have these randos come in and help fix this problem and the like but there's just that feeling that izumo will never be able to shake—distrust.
she was trapped before she came here and that whole experience has not left her mind. ]
[he really wants to say yes. he wants to whole-heartedly believe that it's like they say and it's just a friendly competition to collect memories and keep them safe to help save their worlds. but his own experience has taught him that nothing is ever that easy.]
No. I think it's going to be hard, but I think it can't hurt to work and try to help them remember who they are as fast as we can.
[ hmm... and there's that slip of hero talk she dislikes. it makes her pick up one of the egg rolls before speaking. ]
We don't know what they're supposed to look like. What we've been given is vague. We don't exactly know how long this will take us.
[ a brief pause to take a bite of her snacc. ]
We don't even know if they're telling us the truth. [ another brief pause for her finish her eggy roll. ] I asked the wolf how they knew all of this and who they were responsible for, but it seems like they woke up with this knowledge and just before we did.
[ now, to see how sora will be taking all of what she's saying. ]
We can't entirely discount that some of it being faked.

"Nova has power"—were their exact words to me.
