Memorandum

*Banging pots and pans together* GEN REX FANS COME GET YOUR FOOD.

.

Skwydd woke suddenly.  

After years living on the street, he'd become a light sleeper.  Being able to spring into action at a moment's notice was a life skill.  Or, you know, trauma.  But it was easier to think of it as a cool trick.

That being said, he didn't always know what it was that woke him.  Which was… not great for his nerves.  

This time, though…

He sat up slowly and turned his head scanning the apartment.  People didn’t usually realize it, but one of his EVO adaptations was low-light vision, It was why he was usually the lookout.  Not that he needed it this time.  The light was on in the ‘kitchenette,’ which wasn’t really a kitchenette at all, but the doorless cubby they’d stuffed their microwave and hot plates into.  It was big enough for two people to squeeze in at a time, if they weren’t particularly big on personal space.

It wasn’t really the kind of place an intruder would be hanging out in, so Skwydd got up to look without making all that much of an effort to be sneaky.  Inside, bent double over the shelf they used as a counter, was Tuck.  

“What are you doing?” asked Skwydd.  

Tuck startled, hitting his head on the shelf above, and jostling several metal scraps to the floor.  “Ow!”

Skwydd ignored him, staring at the scraps.  “Is that Rex’s journal?” he asked.    

“Yeah,” said Tuck, picking up the scattered pieces.  “So what?”

“So, what are you doing with it?”

“I’m trying to fix it.”

Skwydd crossed his arms and leaned against the corner where the cubby let out into the rest of the room.  “Why?”  

Tuck turned and frowned at it, the inhuman lines of his face making the expression difficult to read, even for him.  “You know, before Quarry pulled this thing out, I never would have thought Rex would have sold us out.”

“Just let it rest.”  Skwydd and Cricket certainly wanted to, if for different reasons.  “It’s like he said, he’s basically a different person now.”

“That’s not what I meant.  I mean, why did we believe it after?”

“What d’you mean?”

“We’re not wearing tattoos for the fashion statement,” said Tuck.  “And, think about it.  Rex gives up his journal to Quarry, and Quarry just… keeps it handy?  For three years?  When he didn’t think Rex was ever going to come back?”

“Yeah, so he could play mind games with us.”

“Mind games he waited three years for?  Come on, like, we knew Rex.  And we know him now, sort of.  And then there’s this.  One of these things doesn’t fit.”

“We thought we knew him.”

“How many kids did he cure when he was with us?  He didn’t double cross any of them, far as I know.  And he freaking cried when he couldn’t cure someone.”

“Okay, and what’s your theory?  John Scarecrow?  Some kind of deepfake?  It sounded just like Rex.”

“Yeah,” said Tuck, picking up a screwdriver and playing with it.  “Just like him.  Hey, d’you remember what Rex sounded like back then?  Before he disappeared?  Or do you just know what he sounds like now?  ‘Cause, I can’t be sure I do.”

“Yeah, yeah, and what’s your theory?”  There was some movement behind him, and Skwydd was aware he was being maybe a little loud.  Cricket had still been sleeping.  "Remember, Rex said he had a- a memory flash or whatever of taking Quarry's offer."

“I don't know.  But Rex, he could be a jerk sometimes, but our Rex– the only way I can think of that our Rex would have willingly given this up – and freaking unlocked it for Quarry to snoop – is if he got his memory back or if he had no idea what it was."

"Holy crap," whispered Cricket behind Skwydd.  "Do you really think that's what happened?  Rex lost his memory and Quarry scammed him into leaving?"

"Honest?"  Tuck laughed humorlessly.  "I dunno that this's even Rex's journal."  He dropped the screwdriver on the shelf.  "I thought maybe if I get this put back together, it'd be blank except the one video or something, or if it was the real one, then there’d be something about Quarry one way or the other, but I'm not Rex.  I can't talk to machines, and even he didn't think he could get anything out of this one." 

"But if it isn't," said Cricket, "then where's the real one?"

"Who freaking knows.”  It wasn’t a question, more an exclamation of defeat.  “It’s been years.”

“Do you think we should talk to Rex about this?” asked Crickey, audibly trying to keep herself calm.  “Like, if we really think it wasn’t him in the recording…”

“But we don’t know,” said Tuck.  “We don’t know.  And even if we did know, we still believed…”  He covered his mouth with his hand, elbow firmly set on the shelf.  Almost like he was grinding it in, trying to make it hurt.  

He was going to break that if he wasn’t careful.  The shelf wasn’t that stable.  

“Would it do any good, either way?” Skwydd found himself asking out loud.  “Would it do more harm than good?  Since we don’t know…  Maybe he did do it.  We can’t tell.”

“Yeah, exactly.”  Tuck’s voice was muffled by his hand, barely understandable.

“What,” said Cricket, looking back and forth between them.  “You can’t be serious.  You just had this whole big thing about how it wouldn’t make sense for him to do it.  Like, it’s completely out of character, right?  That’s what you said.”

“Yeah, well, the world doesn’t make sense, did you ever think of that?”  Tuck got up and roughly pushed past Skwydd, the ribbons that made up his body briefly unknotting and brushing by him.  

“Hey!” said Cricket.  “Hey!  Why are you so mad?  You’re the one that brought it up!

Tuck spared Cricket a withering glare and otherwise only stopped long enough on the way out of the apartment to grab his hoodie and throw it over his head, so he wouldn’t be instantly pegged as an EVO.  

“What gives!?”  she started to go after him, but Skwydd caught her arm.  

“He needs time to cool off,” he said.  “Just let him be.”

Cricket glared at him and shook him off, but went back to her cot.  

“I don’t get it,” said Cricket.  “If we don’t think he actually sold us out, isn’t letting him think he did kind of a crappy thing to do?”

“Maybe, if we had proof one way or another,” said Skwydd.  “But we don’t.”  He stepped into the kitchenette and picked up a piece of the PDA, examining the sharp edge where Rex had cut it with his giant sword.

“Just, he’s our friend, isn’t he?  He helped us.”

Skwydd shrugged, trying not to show how much this was affecting him.  “It’s like he said.  He’s a different person now.”  He let the piece fall back to the table with a clatter.  “In the end, he didn’t want to know about the past, either.”

He turned off the kitchenette light and went back to bed.  He pretended not to hear Cricket when she asked, “Isn’t that just because he thought we were more important?”

We’ve lost Greece’s manual This week's newsletter from AthensLive is out:

* The costliest Olympics end up in derelict venues and a financial crisis 

* The EU strikes migration deal, while it is revealed pushed-back refugees burned alive 

* Major Greek involvement in Predator scandal revealed in detail 

The iconic and super-expensive OAKA stadium roof, created by renowned Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava for Greece’s 2004 Olympic Games, has become derelict to such a degree that the stadium closed due to safety reasons, Greeks were told. It was reported that the roof was created with a license for a pergola and that its maintenance manual had been lost…

While the EU was striking an important migration deal that would supposedly lead to a change of its asylum rules to lift pressure on the continent’s border countries, Greek authorities were confiscating the mobile phones of the Coast Guard officers involved in the Pylos shipwreck - a whole 119 days after. Plus, the NYT revealed that refugees who burned alive during Greece’s wildfires were push-back victims.

Finally, a series of investigative reports named Predator Files brings stormy details on Greece’s deep involvement with Predator illegal spyware.  

It cannot be recommended strongly enough to read and share this week's updates on the events and developments in Greece here: https://steadyhq.com/en/athenslivegr/posts/e679cd16-c2ad-4122-86b1-0938f60e2549

The katy-dids at Ephrata return But this time at another place. It is the same sound, the same season, But it is not Ephrata. You said the dew falls in the blood. ne dew falls deep in the mind On life itself and there the katy-dids Keep whanging their brass wings . . . Say this to Pravda, tell the damned rag That the peaches are slowly ripening. Say that the American moon comes up Cleansed clean of lousy Byzantium. Say that in the clear Atlantic night The plums are blue on the trees. The katy-dids Bang cymbals as they used to do. Millions hold millions in their arms.

3 Album Terbaik Tahun 2022

Album berikut berhasil membuat saya jatuh hati kala mendengar untuk pertama kali:

1. Tulus - Manusia

Setelah 6 tahun lamanya sejak rilis ‘monokrom’ tahun 2016, akhirnya Tulus kembali merilis album bertajuk ‘manusia’. Album berisi 10 nomor lagu ini menceritakan ragam dinamika rasa kita sebagai manusia. Misalnya, “Tujuh Belas” sebagai nostalgia masa remaja, “kelana” yang mempertanyakan tujuan hidup, dan terakhir “Satu Kali” agar tidak pernah menyerah dan menyesal. Kemudian, “Hati Hati di Jalan” yang sangat sukses menjadi bukti bahwa ia masih menjadi seorang hitmaker seperti yang sudah-sudah.

2. The Jansen - Banal Semakin Binal

Keluh kesah di usia remaja menuju dua lima dan setelahnya yang sangat relevan dengan kehidupan para pendengarnya, mungkin menjadi poin kenapa The Jansen masih mendapat tempat di hati para pendengar baru (dan lama) mereka. Pertanyaan tentang langit yang menurut mereka tak seharusnya biru hingga pernyataan bahwa kita adalah pemeran utama disebuah opera, semuanya ditulis seperti musik punk lokal dari era 70an seperti yang  mereka tasbihkan "Mid-Tempo 70's Punk" pada bio instagram.

3. Perunggu - Memorandum

Band rock pulang ngantor yang terdiri dari trio pekerja korporat asal Jakarta ini merefleksikan keseharian pekerja yang tak luput dari berkompromi dengan frustasi kerah putih. Misalnya, “Ini Abadi” yang dengan baik menggambarkan keresahan khas pekerja ‘tentang mimpi berkecukupan tanpa harus lembur lagi’. Kemudian ditutup dengan “33x” yang terasa seperti pengingat ‘kelak kau mengingat, kau akan teringat’.

My opinion on the Memorandum TheoryI will assume you know what the Memorandum Theory is for this post.

I nearly forgot to post today so here’s something.

The main reason I hear against this theory is that the game has not followed the events of the memorandum. I don’t think that this disproves it however because the differences could possibly improve Sara’s chances.

I am undecided as to whether I believe it or not. A option that occurred to me just now is that there could have been many death games all trying to emulate the desired outcome, with the rejects being killed off.

Finally, I’ve seen many people point out the similarities of memorandum writer and Shin and wanted to note that most of them also applied to Alice. Sorry about the lower quality and late post everybody. Thank you guys for all the support.

Life is not easy, but having an identity is all we young people have to show who we really are. We will be broken from time to time but we will heal, we will become stronger than we ever were before.

I am black by design

I am black to give me courage

I am black to give myself hope

What's Worth Remembering: March 2024

Went for a walk around the neighborhood trail one last time before our move tomorrow. I appreciate so much of what it offered, during the pandemic and even now, the wind, the passerbys, the blue skies and pretty clouds. Everything comes to an end, even if it’s en route to a new beginning Moving day was stressful, but productive and I’m proud Ian and I could work as a team! Hasn’t sunk in yet…
