yeah, i know what happens when you die here.

it's fine just get him here i'll figure out the rest

[thenewnormal]

We'll figure out the rest. You're not alone, I promise.

[extent]

i'm good

[thenewnormal]

I'd be surprised if you were. I know Kyle's not. I'm not. Michael is...definitely not.

[extent]

i said i'm good. focus on michael

[thenewnormal]

I am. The people he loves are a part of that.

[extent]

and right now i'm not a person he loves so

i'm good

[thenewnormal]

And right now you ARE him. ...or me. Because I know exactly what it's like to be fine. Right until the point you're not. And he still loves you. You're still the same person he adopted as family.

Maybe even more because what he does remember? He didn't go back to square one, the memories he had when he first got here. He has the same memories I do. The four years back home since I came back in Roswell.

[extent]

can we please not do this right now

[thenewnormal]

I'm bringing him home. He's safe. And in another week, he'll remember everything. But you're not going to have to wait a week for him to know what you are to him.

[extent]

it doesnt mean anything now
i know what it's like and its just confusing as fuck so like focus on you guys for now and i'll figure something out later

[thenewnormal]

Fine, you need something to do? Be with Kyle. Because Michael doesn't remember him, either. Not really. Barely as a friend let alone best friend or anything else.

[extent]

i know. thats what i'm doing.

[thenewnormal]

I'll try to feel less guilty.

[extent]

for what?

[thenewnormal]

For being the only one he remembers. I mean, there were a lot of things that happened here that he doesn't remember, but for the most part, where we were here is the same as where we were back home.

Because when I woke up from the coma, I remembered everything from three years in Roswell past what I knew when I first got here. I'd known most of the facts before because I always got the basics from the people who came here who knew more than I did. But I'd never lived them.

[extent]

that's pointless. and stupid. feel guilty for the things that are actually in your control, it's not your fault we bonded with him here.

[thenewnormal]

You're right. It is and I know it. Doesn't stop me from having the feeling, though.
