I doubt it. There are many who died recently who aren't with us, too. Probably more absent than are here, but I can't be sure.

[ His memories of the past few days are more than a little bit fuzzy, and he's having a hard time reaching Jimmy for comment at the moment. ]

It's not lost lights, either. There are people who did and people who did not retain theirs both.

That's a few things off the list.
[ What else is there? He's wracking his brain for any other possibilities, although what he comes up with isn't exactly helpful. Best guesses don't count for much when all you can think of is how much of a sausagefest it is in here. ]

Where were you at before you woke up here? Maybe it's something to do with location. [ He doubts it-- if it did, that would mean that there were way more people in Downtown than he knew. ] Were we close to-- I dunno, somewhere they didn't want us to be?

Northeastern corner of the residential district. I can't think of anything particularly notable that was happening there, though.

I took part in House's experiment with the tablets, though, and encountered one of the cloaked figures. Did you, as well? I wasn't keeping track of everyone who participated.

Yeah, unless there was some kind of creepy cult ritual in the grocery store, I don't think that's it, either. Dammit.
[ They're trying to beat the clock, but as far as he can tell, they're not getting much of anywhere. ]

Not me. Saw what happened, though-- can't say I was all that broken up about not getting the participation points there. [ He'd been working on a potential second round, all the same. ] Are we overthinking it? 'Cause-- this could just be picking people out of a hat, more or less. Or for entertainment value.

In my experience, nothing is ever truly random. [ There's always something guiding things along behind the scenes. Fate or fortune, if not an independent will. ]

But my experience applies to... very little here, I'm finding.
