You are now, against all reasoning, Tergum in the distant past of... well, fifty-five minutes before he enters the medium. You have just discovered (and accidentally captchalogued) the corpse of your Lusus, and have managed to put aside that loss for the sake of your friends.

>DP...W55MBHETM Tergum: Check Trollian.



Jegus Christopher on a ONE-WHEELED DEVICE, the notifications! The memo you started is practically exploding, there is somehow another Team Rocket memo, the Fortress memo has a veritable shitton of replies, and you're being trolled by... antipathicHopper? What?

Tergum: Sort that shit out.

You decide it's safe to assume you can close the Team Fortress memo; you've already put your two cents in, and you doubt there's anything worth reading. The first Rocket memo, on the other hand, requires a little more of your time, and a lot more of your patience. You suppose you should compose yourself, and answer.
