In the interest of having it completed some time this century, I'm taking over the project to create a guide document for new arrivals.

[And he's starting it from scratch, no thanks to Chris.]

If you can tear yourselves away from telling ghost stories long enough to reply, I'm interested to know what information you found most helpful when you first arrived, as well as what you would have liked to know sooner rather than later.

I hadn't heard that before, actually. That's definitely something worth including.

[It's an unsettling fact, to learn that there's potential memory loss involved.]

That would be very good. I intend to keep this guide updated as needed, so yes, new photos would be a smart addition as well.

[quaerit]

All right. Well I'll send them across

[ An attachment will come with this message, focused on the main map. He'll have to remember to keep doing this. ]

Let me know when you have them. I know of a few others who returned without memories as well Though some have disappeared again. And it doesn't seem to be a hard and fast rule since I've also been home and returned with memories in tact. The original ones I lost have never returned There's no pattern to it that I can see

[Mello waits until the attachment loads to reply, but it doesn't take long, so the pause is a short one. It's a good map.]

Got it. Thanks. This is a good addition.

[And the information about leaving and returning and the retention of memories is highly relevant to Mello's personal interests. If it's possible to leave but not remember where he's been, he might not return to his original timeline with the knowledge he's gathered here, and that would pose a number of problems - namely, how to arrange for Matt to make a clean getaway after helping him kidnap Takada.]

What's your name?

[quaerit]

Gansey. It's a pleasure. I'm glad I could help

[ Even if the news he'd delivered hadn't all been good. Sorry about that. ]

[torrefied]

[All information is potentially useful information, in Mello's opinion.]

Mello. I'll be in touch, Gansey.
