I think you just did.

[He's being cagey and he knows it. The clues are here -- time traveler; more importantly, someone he told about Dormammu. Once that would have been enough to make him sure who this is, but others have picked up on it by now.]

It's looking like memory loss.

[He recognizes one of those three things.]

Oh, good. That's who I thought I was talking to.

You're a bird? Seriously?

[Davesprite swaps over to video. He looks tired, but that's nothing new. He flutters his wings and caws.]

Yep, actual bird dude right here. Half crow.

That's...a thing. Wow.

Seems like remembering what you look like ought to be easy mode.

[mrcreamsicles]

Seriously. I'm the only bird guy here, orange or otherwise. But losses are fuckin' stupid, and I know from experience that just being told the thing doesn't automatically jar the memory back in place. You just have to wait for it to run its course.

[thewarningafter]

Yeah. Yeah, that's what happened the last time.

But do me a favor, will you? Call me in a while and see if I recognize you, because this is ridiculous if I don't.

[mrcreamsicles]

How long of a while? You talking in a day or so, or like this evening?

private;

[thewarningafter]

This evening works. Last time this happened I couldn't keep a face in mind as long as it took me to look away and back again.

private;

[mrcreamsicles]

Okay, got it. I'll call you then.

[thewarningafter]

Thanks.
