Day 311 [Voice / Open] [Action / Open]
[Voice / Open]
[Normally when Artemis addresses the network she just goes video. Why not? Today, the why not is that when she went to the mirror and looked at herself it wasn't her looking back. It was Tigress. Sure, she was Tigress, but she looked different with the dark hair and different facial features, not to mention costume with the help of the charm Zatanna had made for her. She'd done it to go under cover as one of the bad guys. Or she would do it five years from now. The only reason she even knows about it is because of the day her memories fast forwarded themselves. Except she doesn't have any but the vaguest details about that so it couldn't have happened again, right? So, why was she seeing the wrong person when she looked at herself?]

That pearl thing. It's true. I mean, even if you don't think it's doing something to you, it probably is. I was kind of a jerk about some stuff and if I snapped at anyone you probably didn't deserve it. [No guarantees though.]

And Nico, I've got some stuff for your store. Lots of stuff. Actually, you should probably help carry it and bring some people to assist. [The hoarding is over!]

So, that's it I guess. [A pause.] Is everything...normal out there?

[Action / Open]
[If you live in or visit the apartments in sector 2 you can find Artemis in her apartment—and spilling into the hallway—trying to box up the stuff she over-collected while under the thrall of the green pearl.]

	There's a gallon of cookie dough ice cream and a bag of chips in it for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She knows him so well.] I think I can agree to those terms. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-01 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	Great. [She tips her head, looking at him thoughtfully.] You haven't said anything. [About the thing you can't see.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action fastonhisfeet 2015-03-01 11:38 pm UTC (link)
	[Apparently he doesn't know her as well because he has no idea what she's talking about.] Haven't said anything about what? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-02 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	I look like Tigress again somehow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action fastonhisfeet 2015-03-02 10:06 pm UTC (link)
	Tigress...? [It takes him a long moment to catch on to the meaning behind the name.] Wasn't that... [She knows what that was.] But you don't look any different to me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-04 04:49 am UTC (link)
	I don't? Every time I look at myself today she's the one staring back at me. [Not that she's actually a different person. Just a magical disguise.] The memories didn't come back though. [Same rusty, swiss-cheesed leftovers she already had.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action fastonhisfeet 2015-03-04 09:27 pm UTC (link)
	Huh. Maybe you're the only one that can see it? [It's either that or she went undercover with the worst disguise ever.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-07 09:45 pm UTC (link)
	Maybe, but why am I seeing it? Magic? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action fastonhisfeet 2015-03-07 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	Well, all this is just in our heads. Right? [At least that's what their little trip to Pods-R-Us has led him to believe.] So it could just be as simple as them altering the simulation or whatever to make us see what they want us to see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-16 01:18 am UTC (link)
	Okay. Now how about why? It's nothing I haven't seen before. [And it totally isn't bothering her. NOPE.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Maybe just because they can?

[Okay, he's going to start to take this seriously before she hits him.]

Y'know, Rob and Zatanna used to joke that all this was really just one, big experiment. But after our trip to the other side, I think they might have actually been onto something there. I mean, all this craziness that gets thrown at us can't be a coincidence, can it?

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-16 03:00 am UTC (link)
	[She looks at him thoughtfully.] They'd probably call it rehabilitation, but I think experimentation is a lot closer. So, fine. I'm not letting it bother me. [It's just that easy!] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action fastonhisfeet 2015-03-16 08:13 pm UTC (link)
	[Yeah, he doesn't believe it's that easy.] Are you sure about that? [He might not know anything that happened—or will happen—during her undercover mission since his own future memory didn't go up that far, but he imagines it's not an experience she would like to be reminded of no matter how vague those leftover memories of hers are.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-17 05:48 pm UTC (link)
	Sure. It's not like I even remember it. [But she knows enough to link it to the end of the story. The part where she loses Wally.] Not really. [Just enough.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action fastonhisfeet 2015-03-21 01:58 am UTC (link)
	Okay, so it's not bothering you. [He's still not convinced of that, but if she wants to pretend it isn't bothering her then so can he.] But if it started to, you can always talk to me. I mean, it's what I'm here for. [He smiles a little.] Well, that, and to carry all of your heavy boxes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Action greenerarrow 2015-03-23 12:11 am UTC (link)
	[She nods a little and it helps just knowing she could talk about it. You know, if she wasn't so totally okay and all. She smiles at the box comment.] Good. If it was just Nico we'd never get rid of this stuff. [Yeah, yeah, she's helping too. But she's also been boxing the stuff all day so it's not like she hasn't worked on the mess. ...Her mess.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
