"I can see how that would be weird, but... if I died, and you went back to the spirit world, and in a thousand years you were somebody else's champion, and you didn't remember me..."

"Yeah...I.... yeah I'd want to want them back."

"Yeah. And I know you weren't a champion specifically before, but - that's some of your you, that you don't have, and it sounds like it was important, and I kind of super don't trust whatever process led to you forgetting it."

"Yeah." Lianelle rests her chin on Mays shoulder. 

"It's scary but probably the right choice."

Pet pet. "What's scary about it?"

"That I'll change? That I'll lose you?"

"- well, I'm not going anywhere. We're not even sure if we can be that far apart, so, uh, I might need to poke the Spring a bit about that, or Tomorrowgirl, lest I be in Katia's way all the time when there's no guarantee we'll get along."

Nod nod. 

"It's just that...I think if I married someone it would mean they were the center of my world. And right now you're occupying that spot and I don't know what happens if there are two people there."

"Yeah. That does sound scary."

Cling.

Hug hug hug. "We can ask him more about her, while the magic's refilling; might help get used to the idea."

"Yeah, that makes sense."

"How long do we have till it's full enough?"

"For your memories, or for that and a resurrection at the same time?"

Shrug.

Spring, how much for getting Lianelle to remember her life?

That's not within the capabilities of the Spring.

...will it tell her why?

Nope.

"Uh. The Spring thinks it can't let you remember your life."

"Oh."

Hug.

"It's not telling me why, either, I'm so confused."

Nod nod.

"I don't remember it ever telling me it couldn't do something."

"Well, as established you don't remember everything, but - yeah, it's usually pretty able to do stuff."

Nod.

"I can tell Lucian."

"I'll keep poking at it but I don't really have much to go on." Spring, this here is Lianelle, right? Who remembers some, but not all, of her time as a human being, and could instead perhaps remember all of it?
