† EIGHT [video]

[upstairsbrain]

I'm doing some research. [ SURPRISE. ] ... So, uh, if you don't mind, I was wondering. How many people here've gone home for a while and come back? And how many came back, but didn't remember being here before?

I think it'd be interesting to figure out the numbers, if someone hasn't done it already. If it's already been looked into, let me know.

I've gone home twice. Both times I'm home for months and months but when I come back it's only been a couple of days.

[upstairsbrain]

Yeah, I know what you mean. But, you remembered it?

I went home and came back without any memories of this place. My friend Hitsugaya tells me that I was gone for two months.

[upstairsbrain]

Sounds like what happened to me.

[ex_stakes70]

People knew me when I first got here, so I'm guessing I've been here before and I just don't remember it.

[upstairsbrain]

Right, yeah. Same here.

I've gone home and come back a few times, and I've always remembered. A lot of the people I know it's happened to are still here and they'll probably tell you about it themselves, but there are some who've left entirely after leaving and coming back once... Would you want to know them, too, even if they've been gone a while?

[upstairsbrain]

Well, sure. Just trying to gauge the situation, here.

I went home and back once. Was just a few days back home. [That he will not talk about still, because they ended badly.] Only one day here, I think. But I remembered everything.

[upstairsbrain]

That's the most common experience, from what I've heard. A while home, a few days here, and the person usually remembers.

[video]

[proxysproxy]

Both. I was told, when I arrived here a few months back that I'd been here before, but I don't remember a single thing from that time. I hear it's common.

I was... absent for three weeks here recently, but this time I remembered.

video;

[upstairsbrain]

That's exactly what happened to me. Seems really common.

[therightchoice]

I don't know. I know you came back. Bruce hasn't come back. Maybe it's a hit and miss kind of thing.

[upstairsbrain]

He still might, Jesse.

[uberboned]

Happened to Jinx once. [HE'LL TOTALLY ANSWER FOR HER WHAT OF IT.] Didn't happen to me for obvious reasons.

[upstairsbrain]

[ "Obvious reasons"... okay. ]

Did she remember it?

[astralling]

Will you let me know how this goes?

[She obviously has a vested interest in this issue. Still, despite the subject matter, her eyes are bright and cheerful.]

private;

[upstairsbrain]

'Course. [ And he smiles. ]

[hikari_no_kundou]

I have been told I have been here twice before. From what I understand, neither stay was particularly long, and it was over a year before I arrived again this past September.

I have no past recollection of ever being here.

voice;

[upstairsbrain]

It's confusing, I know. Happened to me, once.

[bondsoflove]

I'm told I was here before. People remember me, but I don't remember them.

[upstairsbrain]

Yeah, same here. That was months ago, though. Have you gotten to know those people, or not?

[ibreakrules]

I went home a little while ago and came back. Apparently only three days passed here when I was gone. At home, I didn't remember this place, but once I got back here I remembered it again.

[upstairsbrain]

That's the general consensus, seems like.

[canfindrope]

I just got back...

[upstairsbrain]

And you remember it?

I know it happened to Jubilee, just once I think - though she remembered. Happened to one of my grandsons, several times, and he didn't remember it once. Castiel was here and then disappeared for a while. When he came back he didn't remember being here.

I've been home too, but I remembered this place.

[Magneto sounds, literally, like death warmed over.]

[upstairsbrain]

[ He hears it. So, instead of responding to the info just yet, he'll ask: ]

You okay?

[mikhail_in_me]

Apparently I was here before and left..but now that I'm back I don't remember being here at all.

[upstairsbrain]

It's happened to a lot of people. You okay?
