[snatches it, then looks down at it... and resists the urge she has to punch this guy in his pretty face]

That wasn't funny.

It was a harmless joke, that's all. [shrugs]

These are people's memories. I'm trying to figure out who I am. It's not the time to joke around.

[slips that picture into her back pocket, folds her arms, and stares pointedly at the wall]

[... feels bad.]

... I know. Maybe that was out of line, but that picture in particular isn't that big of a deal. You don't have to be so touchy about it.

It is when I look at my other pictures, okay? [she sighs, rubbing her forehead] Let's just find yours.

I'm sorry. I know a lot of people here don't have the most pleasant memories--

[FEELS REALLY BAD] Do you know who he is?

[the apology calms her down a little. She shakes her head] No. I don't have the slightest clue. He could be my boyfriend, brother, cousin, friend, enemy... anything.

Just hopefully not an illegal combination of any of those.

[LMAO actually kind of laughs] And you thought my joke was tasteless.

It was. I'm allowed to make fun of myself.

[spots his name and points up!] There.

It was still pretty harsh for a joke about yourself.

[he reaches for it] Thanks. [it's a picture of him putting whipping cream on Alex's head as she's sleeping... lmao reaches back for his wallet to put it in there]

I was trying to lighten the mood.

[looks closer at the picture and laughs a little]

[puts it away] I keep finding pictures of me and this girl. I haven't seen her around the castle, though.

Have you figured out your relation to her?

Well, she's either my girlfriend or... a friend with benefits. [HINTING THAT HE'S FOUND YOU KNOW] Hopefully not family.

You need any help looking at the pictures on top?

[oh, awkward, but she laughs a little] I'll hope that, too.

At least you didn't forget your sense of humor. Unless losing your memories made you gain one. [she steps back so she can look up better B( ]

You'd think you'd lose your personality if you lost your memories. [reaches up for the picture of her, jaw dropping when he gets a closer look]

Then everyone would be the sa--[catches a glance of it as he pulls it down and tries to grab it out of his hands isdubgidsbug]

[lets her] Um.

[she laughs and stuffs it into her pocket] I'm sure it's not what it looks like.

[... is pretty sure it is what it looks like]

It looks like you were standing in front of a train. [thinks the people in the castle are weird]

[thinks she's some suicidal freak of nature, tries to hide how upset she's feeling]

No kidding.

[thinks she's suicidal, too]

Do you want to talk about it?

There's nothing to talk about.

Obviously there's something to talk about. It's a matter of you wanting to talk about it, though.

Right, okay. Because I can remember why exactly I'm throwing myself in front of a train or jumping off of a water tower, right? I couldn't talk about it even if I wanted to!
