[your selection for today is, for some reason, your standard American highschool lunch menu. If you have Player permission, there's ice-cream for dessert.]
[Grenn had to scratch her scalp, confused. What had this to do with anything? Since this seemed to be something Gino and Mei had been talking about, Grenn doesn't say anything, just looks between the two.]
[Grenn rolled her eyes. What had Gino and Mei been talking about, anyway?]
Gino's right, Mei. Though if he said they were all terrible, horrible people before, he was wrong. Governments can call anyone they want a 'terrorist'.
Sometimes these 'terrorists' haven't even done anythhing usually thought of as 'bad'; they're just opposing a government that feels threatened. Of course, they can also be bad... And sometimes, the government is bad, and the 'terrorists' are doing everyone a favour by being a thorn in the government's side.
[... Oops. Wow. Grenn ducks down, staring at her plate in embarrassment. She hadn't meant to say all that.]
What... uh... I mean... [Mentally, she cursed the faint squeak in her voice.] I... uh, I suppose you remembered something that made this talk of terrorists relevant?
[Mei lets her arms fall back to her sides and she stares at both of them.]
Wait... now it's good to be one? Or... so... it depends on what they're fighting? [But it still has the word 'terror' in it! Unless she's failing hard at word roots here, that would mean these people were meant to be terrible. Though if the government was just picking whoever they wanted to call that, like Grenn was saying, then... uh... fff... what.] But Gino, why are you one? Were you on Kallen's side after all?
I wasn't for a while, then the whole world went a little crazy and I ended up on her side. That's what I remembered! [fingerwave] Uh, part of it, anyway.
... That's... a lot of time to forget. I don't get it. How can that count as 'one' memory?
[Grenn frowns and taps her fingers against the tabletop. She doesn't like the sound of this, because if two years is 'one' memory, then people could lose their whole lives and still only have the 'ten' memories taken...]
[Looking up, Grenn frowned, her fingers stilling in their tapping motion.]
Cheat back? How?
[Of course, she'd already tried to do so, and knew she would probably never be able to use anything but the most basic functions of the computers in the lab anytime soon.]

[Mei goes from sitting to standing on her chair in the blink of an eye. There may be some wild arm flailing involved.]
But... but that makes us both the bad guys! You're a knight! You can't be a bad guy!
[THIS IS NOT HOW IT WORKS IN STORIES. WHAT IS THIS.]

Ah... the flash-forward, short-summary version of your memory? [Then she frows, because that sounds like the memory had contained a lot...]
How long a period are we talking about, anyway?

[Mei had done that already and it had gotten everyone in trouble!]
How? That lady will just catch us if we do!
