Bravo!

Archie has wandered here some how as given that accountant has disappeared she can go pretty much anywhere again. He doesn't actually know what a train station is and thinks that maybe being around more people could be good for herself so he opens the door.

Archie pauses slightly "quite frankly I'm not sure... I've mainly been wandering around recently now that I can"

"Ah, I can understand that. That is fair enough." He nods, politely. "I cannot fault you for that."

"...I'm Archie by the way and you are?"

"I am Warden Ingo Of The Pearl Clan. I use he and him pronouns. It is nice to meet you, Archie." He tips his hat, politely.

Archie tilts his head slightly not really understanding the gesture "my pronouns are she/her and he/him...its nice to meet you too...what is a pearl clan?"

"The Pearl Clan is a group of people who took me in after I experienced a traumatic head injury, causing total amnesia. I could not remember anything, and they helped me heal and accepted me as one of their own." He sounds fond.

"huh... interesting they sound very nice. I'm guessing your amnesia got better?"

"It is improving slowly. It was retrograde not antigrade, so I was able to make new memories going forwards. I have been slowly recovering old ones with effort and luck, but I may not ever recover all of them."

"um..." Archie pauses his tail twitching slightly "well I hope that gets better..." He isn't exactly sure how to respond

Ingo pauses for a moment. "Ah, my apologies if I made the conversation awkward; I understand it is not the easiest situation to comment on, casually. We can change the topic to something else, if you would like? I am happy to answer questions about the Pearl Clan if you are curious, and if you have a topic you would like to discuss I will gladly do so."

"oh you didn't make it awkward...I'm just not very used to interacting with humans it's um not my strong suit to say the least"

"That is completely fair. I struggle with conversations myself, so I can relate to that." He nods, politely. "The fact you are trying is more than enough."

Archie smiles slightly "thanks for understanding"

"You are very welcome!" Ingo's face doesn't change, but his voice sounds like a smile. "I know firsthand how alienating it can feel when people are judgemental of how you interact with others, especially if you are already struggling. I do my best to help others avoid experiencing that."

Archie smiles more and her tail waves around "so um...given that neither of us know exactly where we are what should we do?"

"... we could always look around?" He shrugs. "We may as well, since we are here."

"that sounds like a good plan...as far as I know no one is looking for me so staying put is unlikely to help"

"Ah, true. Are you looking for someone else? Perhaps I can help you find them instead."

"...I don't know if I actually am looking for anyone" Archie stretches her wing as he thinks "I want know why their gone...I don't want to ever see them again but maybe I do?" He mostly muttering to himself as this point with her tail waving around in the air

"Ah, are you missing some of your memories?" He tilts his head. "I can relate to that, I myself have amnesia."

"...I remember the majority of what happened but there are parts that I think I must have tried to block out?"

"Sounds like your amnesia may be trauma-induced." Ingo nods. "Mine was blunt force trauma induced personally. Concussion in a snowstorm, I do not at all reccomend it."

"I think it's also probably drug induced never actually figured out what was put in my drink"

"I see." Ingo's tone is still polite, but there's an edge to it that makes it clear he isn't upset at Archie, but he is upset. "... theoretically, if you were to discover the identity of the individual who did this to you, would you like to make them regret their actions or would you prefer for someone else to do it for you?"

"I know who did it...I just don't know where they are...I woke up and I was all alone it's like they stopped existing"

"... Well, at least they cannot harm you anymore." Ingo hums, slightly. "So there is that."

"yes...I still don't know why they did it" Archie stares at the ground and fiddles with his tail

[Jill, puzzled for a second, knocks on the door.

I assume it's some sort of headquarters for a workplace safety organization. It's not very safe though, and, like, really confusing.

"That... sounds like a very anachronistic location." He blinks, and glances down to his daughter, as if checking to make sure she's alright. "Um... do you know if this specific location is safe?"

Luciano, figuring this might be a train, tries to get on in case it goes somewhere interesting. They don't even wait to see if the door opens, just instinctively walking directly at it.

"Oh, I wouldn't know, I've never asked where or what this place actually is." Their voice is very hoarse, leaving no discernable accent. Their pale, sickly green skin leaves them looking far less human than even the strange man in front of them. Confusingly, they smell almost like a Parasect, though the scent is faint and hard to detect.

"Ah, I see." The man tilts his head slightly, glancing over Luciano briefly. "That is understandable. May I ask who you might be? I am quite certain we have never met before."

"I'm Luciano. Or, at least, I used to be. I think I still am, but I'm not so sure anymore. And, yeah, we haven't met before."

"You can still be Luciano if you wish to. Or not, if you would prefer. It is up to you." He shrugs. "I am Warden Ingo of the Pearl Clan. He and him."

"Oh, uh, they/them for me. And I think I still want to be Luciano, it was a nice name."

"I agree. Luciano is a very nice name." He nods, politely.

"Thanks. I'm glad my name appeals to more than just me hehe." They stand there, awkwardly, not knowing what else to say.

"Names are a very personal thing, so I suppose they can feel like an extension of yourself. Finding the right one if the one you were given does not fit is very important!" Ingo replies, also not knowing exactly what to say and just winging it.

It takes Pes some time to remember what an automatic door is. By that point, they'd been standing in front of it for quite some time. They try to wave under the sensor, or where they think the sensor should be.

"Before I tell you, I'm… required to inform you that my name is Pes Simiae…" Pes's hair floats and flows strangely as they talk, as if an unnatural wind is blowing exclusively for them. "As for where you are… this place is known as ‘OSHA’ by those on its grounds…" They take a long swig from their travel cup.

"I see, thank you for informing me. I am Warden Ingo of the Pearl Clan." He pauses for a moment, tilting his head. "May I ask why you are required to inform me of your name? You do not have to answer if you do not want to or are unable to, of course."

"It is a… consequence of messing with… powers beyond my understanding…" They give him a tired smile before taking another swig.

"Ah, I see." He nods, politely. "Yes, that tends to cause unexpected results. It happens more often than I had expected, it seems."

"This place is… disproportionately affected by… circumstances such as that…" They take another swig. "Outside of these grounds… not so much…" With a slightly twisted smile, they continue. "Spiders Georg… as the kids might say…"

"Ah yes, though I have heard it refered to as Ariados Georg." He nods, chuckling.

"A constant… across timelines, I suppose…" Their disposition warms as the slight twist in their smile fades.

"How else would we learn about outliers?" Ingo jokes, lightly.

"It is improving slowly. It was retrograde not antigrade, so I was able to make new memories going forwards. I have been slowly recovering old ones with effort and luck, but I may not ever recover all of them."

"um..." Archie pauses his tail twitching slightly "well I hope that gets better..." He isn't exactly sure how to respond

Ingo pauses for a moment. "Ah, my apologies if I made the conversation awkward; I understand it is not the easiest situation to comment on, casually. We can change the topic to something else, if you would like? I am happy to answer questions about the Pearl Clan if you are curious, and if you have a topic you would like to discuss I will gladly do so."

"oh you didn't make it awkward...I'm just not very used to interacting with humans it's um not my strong suit to say the least"

"That is completely fair. I struggle with conversations myself, so I can relate to that." He nods, politely. "The fact you are trying is more than enough."

Archie smiles slightly "thanks for understanding"

"You are very welcome!" Ingo's face doesn't change, but his voice sounds like a smile. "I know firsthand how alienating it can feel when people are judgemental of how you interact with others, especially if you are already struggling. I do my best to help others avoid experiencing that."

Archie has wandered here some how as given that accountant has disappeared she can go pretty much anywhere again. He doesn't actually know what a train station is and thinks that maybe being around more people could be good for herself so he opens the door.

Archie pauses slightly "quite frankly I'm not sure... I've mainly been wandering around recently now that I can"

"Ah, I can understand that. That is fair enough." He nods, politely. "I cannot fault you for that."

"...I'm Archie by the way and you are?"

"I am Warden Ingo Of The Pearl Clan. I use he and him pronouns. It is nice to meet you, Archie." He tips his hat, politely.

Archie tilts his head slightly not really understanding the gesture "my pronouns are she/her and he/him...its nice to meet you too...what is a pearl clan?"
