10/30 Well. Here I am, writing messages to someone who will never see them. I guess I've finally stooped to your level of sentimentality. Something has happened. I broke my promise, didn't I? This new world is strange. It's too familiar. The technology--you would be surprised at how accessible everything is. Even the Upper Level didn't compare. I wonder, would you be comfortable here? Our technology was similar. I remember your ridiculous passion when you talked about it. I thought Purgatorium was playing another trick on me when I arrived. But it feels real. It is real, at least for now. I'm sorry. I promised to wait, but I didn't. I wish I could have 11/05 Valeria is here. Do you remember her? And Ed. Even if they're not the same, it's good to see familiar faces. I wonder, would a new you show up one day, too? I don't know if I want that I've tried gathering data on the portal but my current department's databases are filled with information on the wall only. That's right, I've found purpose very quickly here. My new work has me inspecting the protective walls surrounding this city. It's not as boring as it sounds, but I'm sure you would begrudge it, were you to share my position. I hope you don't return there. I hope you don't come here, either. Even if-- 11/16 I toyed with the thought of burning a piece of paper yesterday but I've decided against it. There are no regrets for me to burn. You may have caused me endless headaches but... Have you ever tried to capture stray animals? They're not as aggressive as the monsters we used to hunt, but it turns out some of them are very crafty. I wonder if your obnoxious enthusiasm would have stunned them into submission. You would have probably scared them away instead. I miss it The climate here seems more stable than Purgatorium's was. It could still change, but my current analysis shows a steady change of seasons throughout the months. If this is accurate, we might have snow in a few weeks. Maybe I should build a snow duck in your honor. 12/1 I was right. Remember when you-- No, nevermind. I promise I won't get frostbite this time. 12/9 It's them. Not just any version of them, it's the version of them. That--I have seen others from your world around the network and the outside. Now I'm starting to wonder if they are who we knew as well. Is there a chance that you would... No, there isn't, is there? You left Purgatorium and... Why? Why am I still thinking about this? ... 12/18 With what I've been told, I wonder--did a version of you ever come back to experience that? Did you indeed return to find me gone only to live through the collapse? .... I'm sure it didn't happen. He would have mentioned it. Then again, why would he? I should ask, but I think some things are better left unsolved. It's the sentimental season now. The lights in the city glow brighter than they do normally. I can just imagine you dragging me through the streets under the pretense of doing something productive. I... I think I will go for a pointless walk in your honor. Just for today.
