Mission 25 [Voice]

 [This is something that's been on her mind for a while, but she hadn't wanted to express it.  Still, she figures that she should probably bite the bullet and ask - what harm could it do?]

How do you deal with someone who has amnesia?  ...Not here - at home.  A friend of mine doesn't remember anything about his life, whether it's good or bad.  Whether I meet him here or back home, I don't know whether I should tell him about his life, or let him start fresh.  Having a fresh start would be better for his conscience, but... some of his actions were particularly cruel, and if he doesn't know about them, he'll be targeted for acts that he doesn't know he did.

... As someone who has once found a stray cat who once had a case of amnesia...

I may be of some help, hmm?

How could a cat get amnesia? [Then again, she supposes that Happy could just as likely develop amnesia as anyone else.] ...Sure, if you think that experience will help any.

A metaphor. ... The man I found one day in the rain really could be compared closely to a stray though, heheh... Though, I ask that you keep this between the two of us.

... Overtime, their memory may return to them.

...Why would I need to do that?

Yes, I certainly hope so.

voice - LOCKED

[novelist]

I have my reasons for it. Personal, and yet important reasons. I hope you understand.

[redhairedknight]

I suppose so. [She's not sure why she has to keep quiet, as she still has no idea who the amnesiac person is or if they're even here, but Erza hasn't exactly been open about Jellal either, so she'll respect this person's wishes.] One question, if you don't mind - this person who you found, did they ever wind up regaining their memories?

Over the course of time, countless things can change. ... His memories weren't an exception of that.

But, he was no longer the man he once was before.

voice - LOCKED

[redhairedknight]

...To be honest, that would probably be the best-case scenario for me. Before he lost his memories, he... wasn't acting like himself. Even if he did get his memories back, I'd prefer it if he stayed the way that he is now, as far as his personality goes.

Then, why rush to have him regain his memories?
