In the life where I was a soldier-- the Vice-Captain and Captain both kinda took me under their wing, and I trusted both of 'em. So I didn't think much of the Vice-Captain having me deliver him a gift.
... the person who had that role, though-- she's someone I would've known was bad news if I remembered my real life.
Not the first time I've ever been on the end of Rodya's axe... she's killed me before. Either corroding, or fighting some kind of Abnormality that can take control.
[genuinely sometimes the answer to restoring your comrades' sanity is beating the shit out of them until they knock it off or die.]
That's where it got a little weird. Woke up in Hell, and Yuri was there trying to get me to go with her, yelling at me to wake up... uh, she pulled out a gun and shot Hermann? And then drove a motorcycle to get us out of there. I think. I was a little out of it.
Turned out Luke just looked like Yuri for... some reason.

Someone from where you are originally from, then?
no subject
no subject
[ yes, he remembers that. ]
Is she actually your parent?
no subject
no subject
I see. What happened after?
[ he is not sure if gregor would want to talk about THAT so. tries to continue the recounting of the story for now ]
no subject
[what else could he do but say yes, then.]
no subject
... these things really go for the throat.
no subject
[reaching up to rub at his throat, a little, at the closed wound there. his eyes briefly fall to the tattoo on his arm.]
I didn't have any choice but to flee with her, or to fight for her when soldiers caught up with us. But when they ended up killing me...
There was a ring I had. Let me do a few things I normally couldn't. I'm not sure what exactly it was, but when I should've died-- I changed.
no subject
Changed into what...?
no subject
[of course. what else would it do to him.]
Lost my mind. Rodya and Yuri had to kill me.
no subject
[ well that was an unhelpful ring. ]
Are you alright?
no subject

again, he can ask about this, but he will let gregor continue explaining. ]
She is rather formidable. [ ... ] Did it keep going after that?
no subject
Turned out Luke just looked like Yuri for... some reason.
no subject
Oh.
[ that's all he says like what else do you say to this ]
no subject
We were pretty sure we were dead like they are, so showing up back on the ship-- that was a surprise.
no subject
[ a smile. ]
It sounds like you were on quite the adventure.
no subject
Think it'd be less sad for me to die than some, though.
[like we're really out here losing teenagers and not the war veteran]
