[While he usually uses audio settings back home, this time he's going to use video. It might help if someone recognizes him, and not just by voice. Which is why everyone can see that he opted not to use the white jumpsuit (because who really would?), and instead used the clothes that he had found in the trunk. Thank god they gave him brushes, too, or his hair would be a mess.]

This connects to the network, yes? This is Tseng, Director of the Department for Administrative Research. ID Number 46952. [There's no confirmation after that, of course, and his eyes narrow.]

After awaking in room 03-04, I found the letter stating that Gaia had been destroyed. Unbelievable, of course, and whoever has decided to play this kind of prank can be assured that their pay will be docked.

[The collar, too, is a nice touch; just enough that it's annoying, and such a garish color.] I'm more concerned with someone touching my things, and somehow knowing what to pack in that trunk. They also left me without a lighter, if there is anyone willing to lend me one for a moment.

Any and all information from a reliable, spoken source, would be appreciated.

I have no interest in being remembered, Director. Had I succeeded, I myself would have ceased to be, as would any who might have "remembered me". As it is-- "glory", "shame", "memory", these things hold no meaning for me. Indeed, they never have done.

Further explanation is unnecessary.
Yes, I'm sure you'll eventually return to your home, to your life, as I'll return to the Lifestream.
And if you have my work to thank-- well, I suppose you'll be able to forget that. In time.

Then I'm sure we will have nothing more to say to each other, until that time.
