[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

Watch out for everyone for me if I don't make it back.

[He hated asking such a thing of his friend, not when there was Nomi Sunrider lingering in the back of his mind and this chaos weighing on his shoulders. It was grim, morbid, but he wanted to be sure that everything would be taken care of.

He didn't want the distraction. Perhaps it was selfish, but it was what he needed the most right then.]

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

Of course, Lupin. That shouldn't ever have been a question.

[But in the back of his mind, he's got a bit of a grim smile going on. Even if Lupin died, he'd be back inside a week. That was how this worked, but he didn't want to say it]

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

I know. I just needed to hear it.

[Because he knew that, if he did fall, he would be back in a week. It was the other capabilities of the Malnosso that had him concerned.]

[thefinaljedi]

Sometimes cognitive reinforcement is necessary, I know. Do you really think you're going to die? Why?

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

I dunno. A job with this kind of risk just gives me a bad feeling, you know? [Of course he did--it was conversation.] I don't fear death--never have. I worry about what else they can do to us.

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

Ah, yes. I've got a bad feeling about this too. But I don't see any evidence to say that they'll do anything worse than before.

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

They can play with memories, Luke. [A heavy beat.] They can make us forget everything.

[Which was an infinitely worse fate than death in his eyes--he didn't want to live a life where he wasn't inherently himself. It was the ultimate falsehood, and terribly painful to the people whose memories remained intact.]

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

That's true. But even if they do, does that make OUR actions any less memorable to them?

[Luke's face breaks into a devilish grin. If someone was going to remove his memories, he'd make damn sure they NEVER forgot why]

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

[Lupin started at the sudden grin for just a second before he smirked in kind. He chuckled softly at Luke's audacity and his own foolishness. Perhaps it was witnessing Fujiko's dance with amnesia that left his wary, or his own bitter tastes of memory loss, butsaw the point.

Again. It was pride.]

Thanks, Red. I think I needed that.

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

Audacity is my strong suit, Lupin. You know that better than anyone.

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

Of course. I just don't normally play a game that my gut's warning me against.

[His games normally started off at an innocent enough point and ended up somewhere desperate, not the reverse.]

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

Neither do I, Lupin, but sometimes...we just have to take what we can get. I'm not sure how this will go, but win or lose it will be an experience for everyone involved.

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

Oh, it will be an experience all right...

[Good or bad. They were going to go through with it regardless.]

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

So, why don't we do something different, to celebrate? It could very well be our last night with our own memories, so lets do something memorable.

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

That sounds like an excellent idea. Let's party like it's the last night of the world!

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

Actually, I was thinking of something a bit less wild. Lets head down to the beach. I've got some fishing rods and a cooler with a few Corellian Sunrises already waiting.

[Action] June 16, Evening

[redjacketthief]

It was a reference to a musical, Luke. I'll need to find the soundtrack or the sheet music when this is all done and over with. You'd probably like the story.

But that sounds perfect. Fishing and drinking...man that feels like home!

[Action] June 16, Evening

[thefinaljedi]

Then lets get to it then?

[Off to the Teleporter!]
