[This is actually Illya’s first post on the network, ever. He already doesn’t trust any kind of open communication, he knows how easily it can be bugged- and that’s not even taking into account the fact that they have to depend on a method of communication given by those who have basically kidnapped them. It’s useful, and he uses it to communicate with people but he sticks to one-on-one conversations.

...But, wouldn’t you know it, forgetting the main reason why he’s so careful apparently made him lower his guard. Who knew?]

Hello.

[He also looks way, way more relaxed, and one could almost call the way his lips seem to be twitching up a smile. Almost.]

Name is Illya, for those who don’t know me. Illya Kuryakin. I know most of us are dealing with.... Whatever is happening, with the loss of memory. But I think that’s all the more reason to be prepared.

[He goes on, unaware that he’s just… revealed his actual name to everyone over the network. Because since he forgot he’s a spy, he also forgot all about his secret identity. He’ll be pissed, but that’s apparently going to be a problem for future Illya.]

So I’ve been thinking about giving self-defense classes, to anyone who would be interested. I am most experienced in SAMBO, but I know many fighting styles. If you are looking for a sparring partner I would be interested, as well.

Thank you.

I wouldn't mind a sparring partner.

[ He wants to keep his physical training going, not just magical. However: ]

But I need to ask: why does your Friendr say "Alexei"?

Your Friendr says Alexei because you're a spy, which I'm guessing is a part of your life that you don't remember? You haven't told anyone except me your real name. Until now. I think we can consider your cover officially blown.

[ She made a promise, and she is going to keep it. Even though she kind of doubts that he's going to care much given his current state, and it's not actually her responsibility. ]

Hey, bubbale, I'm getting the feeling it's way too late now and the cat's already outta the bag, but you've never used that name before.

[It doesn't worry Taako, he just wants to warn Illya so he can avoid spilling anything he wouldn't want to.]

I could use some self defense training. If you're alright with teaching a beginner.

[She doesn't know nothing but it's pretty close.]

It's Illya now, is it? Fascinating. You never looked much like an Alexi to me, anyway.

[ Laurent's voice is smooth and lilting, his lips curving in amusement as his sharp blue eyes study the screen. Leaning back, Laurent uses a long, fine boned hand to tap his cheek, blowing out a breath as his smile grows. He'd had a feeling that "Alexi" had a thing or two he wanted to hide, but that part of Laurent's life was left at home. He has been trying not to get too... involved with that sort of thing. It isn't easy, exactly, to shut it off, but. As far as he's concerned this is something he can tease the other with, rather than use it for anything illicit. ]

I do so hope you haven't forgotten about our little date. A name change isn't going to let you off the hook that easily, Kuryakin.

Why are people losing memories?

[She clearly paid little attention to everything else.]
