There's things in my world. Not the same as Tranquility, but conditions and procedures that can deeply affect personality and temperament. People who experience them are still people. And ... my understanding is that Tranquility doesn't affect memory, at least in recall of what literally happened, which is even more... it's ... it won't be hard for me to remember that she's still Herian.
[It certainly will be hard in a variety of other ways, but even so.]
I appreciate ... I'm glad you know it too. That she'll know people around who know it's still her and don't only see what's been done to her. And I'll do my best to make sure I'm in control before I go.
[So probably not directly after this conversation, for all she's not lashing out in Gwenaƫlle's direction and her tone is still even.]
