[voice] an idle curiosity in the middle of the night

If you could make the choice to lose one memory, what would it be?

If you don't feel like sharing the details of that moment, answer this instead- if you were really given the choice, not hypothetically in the future, but today, with all the realities and consequences you face, would you let the moment go? And would it change you?

How much of our darkest moments make us what we are?

Well. Unfor--

Unfortunate. Though, I understand your meaning. Such an implication seems a waste of time -- for anyone, even hypothetical.

Thank you.

I suppose I was mostly talking about myself.

Yourself. You waste your time often?

No, but my mind seems to leak memories like a sieve.

Is it a health issue?

The memory loss? I'm afraid not. The most recent bout was a side effect of this place.

Interesting. And does this happen often?

Well, do you remember your time here, Mister Holmes?

I've never been here before.

Oh, yes you have. I had to hear you, to be sure it was you, but a blind man doesn't forget a voice, least of all one like yours.

Interesting. Then you're right. I don't remember this place; but it would not be the fault of my own memory.

That's fairly typical. If you didn't reappear immediately, it's doubtful you'll ever remember completely.

I'm assuming you knew of me.

I'm working at reconstructing all this from old feeds, but from what I can tell you were vaguely involved in some sort of grandiose battle with a mad bomber who spoke to you in code. It was, in all, a lovely summer.

How many others know that about me?

Most of them are gone, I think- John had a few more friends, I knew him a lot better... but that was a long time ago, now.

You should try to get in touch with two men- Severus Snape, and Tom Riddle.

...what will they offer me?

Information, on who you used to be.

Interesting.

Thank you.

You're more than welcome.

Do keep in touch, let me know how it goes. We're finding our past lives in tandem, after all.

Are we?

You're on your second go here, then?

I am. Regaining two years of memories in one dizzying go.

Unusual. How has your mind handled?

Poorly, I must admit. I've been cantankerous.

Have you remembered much?
