We were actually talking about them granting favors to people. They said they didn't give them for free, and that you have to do something for them.

So, they challenged me.

[alteracion]

That's kind of a harsh challenge.

[dotcom]

Well, I accepted. Saying no would have screwed me over even worse probably.

[alteracion]

Probably, but that must've been some favor.

[dotcom]

It wasn't even a specific one. It was just the chance for them to do them for me.

[alteracion]

Yeah, that sounds like Greed. [ she leans her head back ] What about trying to get one from Gluttony?

[dotcom]

I'd rather eat my shoe.

[alteracion]

[ yeowch. ]

That bad still?

[dotcom]

I hold grudges.

[alteracion]

[ laughs, a bit ]

Yeah, fair enough. [ but, after a pause: ] You don't have any side effects, right? From what happened on Thursday.

[dotcom]

[ there's a pause. ]

... one.

[alteracion]

[ oh. concern ]

What is it?

[dotcom]

I can't remember something.

[alteracion]

What?

[ a beat ]

I'm not asking what you don't remember, obviously [ SINCE HE CAN'T REMEMBER SHES JUST SURPRISED ] but... how do you know?

[dotcom]

Because it's tied to something that I think about often, if that makes sense.

[alteracion]

Like... something you normally know when you think about a subject, but you don't remember now?

[ is it tied to food. did he forget how to eat normal food. is he a cannibal and he ate kaz ]

[dotcom]

Right. It's tied to why I'm even here in the first place.

[ so

this sucks. ]

[alteracion]

Did you forget your wish? Or just... part of it?

[dotcom]

Not the wish itself, just... something that's related to it.

[ it's. annoying. ]

[alteracion]

And Mineo can't remind you, I guess?

[dotcom]

No.

No one seems to believe me, but when I say we really do not know each other that well personally I mean it. Our relationship was pretty much just work related.

[alteracion]

Maybe your wish could've been work related. [ she really doesn't know, okay. but she nudges him with her leg a little ] You can't get that favor from Greed right now, but do you think getting a favor from someone else will let you get that memory back?

[dotcom]

I'll see... I'm going to talk to a few of them tomorrow to see what they might say. I have to find out if the other three learned anything first.

[ and also, he admittedly does not want to go to gluttony at the moment while very mad. that might not end well. he will wait. ]

[alteracion]

They've all forgotten something too? So it really is a side effect...

[dotcom]

It happened immediately after we left.

[ ... ]

It felt like we were being tested on how far we'd go. And if that's the case, we probably failed the test. So it might just be a punishment for that.
