I hate that Retrospec keeps forcing these things on everyone. Especially people too young, or who honestly don't want it.

The best we can do is make sure everyone's being safe.

You okay?

[notyourutopian]

Eh
I'll be okay.
Just

Retrospec went from never sending me anything
To sending me a doll
And then a shotgun.

Just
What

[standalonehuman]

So. A shotgun. And the bullets for it are purchasable in vending machines.

Which. Can we talk about that for a minute? You missed that day at the office. I pass a vending machine for bullets. A vending machine for bullets with a clown on it. On my way in to work. I am all prepared to report it only to find another one right up the block from the department and a coworker buying stuff out of it!

[notyourutopian]

Those things have been popping up around the city yeah
I mean, they sell other stuff too but
Bullets.

They're from Rapture though
The machines.
I remember seeing one.

[standalonehuman]

Rapture. You remembered the place the person Retrospec is showing you was from?

Is it a city or a world, or what is it you remember?

[notyourutopian]

Oh. Yes.

Well the name at least.

It's a city on the bottom of the sea.
Run by some kind of objectivist lunatic.

[standalonehuman]

That's.

I don't know how to properly react to this, because I want to say 'amazing' and 'unfortunate' at the same time, and neither reaction sounds like enough.

The bottom of the sea. Wait, how do you live down there? Let alone how do you build the city?

[notyourutopian]

'I don't know how to properly react to this'
Is the subtitle of my autobiography at this point.

I don't know.
I think she was born there
The other me.
So they built it before the 40s at least?
But it doesn't make sense how.

I keep wanting to figure it out but I don't know enough to actually do it.

[standalonehuman]

Wait, 1940's? The other Eleanor is from that far back?

We've already supposed that most people aren't coming from the same place, the same planet, but that's really really far from what anybody's said before.

[notyourutopian]

I think so
Or the fifties I'm not sure of the date.
None of the memories have been very specific, unfortunately.
