Tensions are high, this week. Unlike last week, where most people seemed to be feeling pretty decent, and the odd effect didn't have any outright negative impacts.

...Have you felt any changes? Talking to you, you don't seem really any different.

[holeful]

Oh, I forgot how to count.

[No big deal!]

[kokytos]

...How unfortunate.

[ Fukuda your IQ... but at least it was a skill that you weren't using that hard so far to begin with. ]

[holeful]

It's fine. It's more annoying when I forget... well, things I know from pop culture. Books and movies and such. It's been coming and going.

[kokytos]

Do you even need pop culture knowledge here though.

Half the people aren't even from modern day.

[holeful]

Well, sometimes stuff like that is useful in social situations?

[He is substituting it for actual social skills.]

[kokytos]

So you're just using it as bonding material? I've never brought up pop culture once in my time here so far.

[holeful]

Mm, it's less that, and using it as a reference for what to say in unfamiliar situations?

[kokytos]

[ Beat pause.

Your dialogue comes from pop culture interactions.

Okay. ]

...I think we're done here.

[NOT ALL OF IT??? IT'S JUST A SUPPLEMENT??? Anyway he looks a little confused but he's not going to protest.]

Ah, alright. I'll see you later, Steven.
