💭 video; @b.potts

[ The video opens on a small silver canister, one of the update canisters that came to Bill from the Portal HQ. She keeps the camera steady, narrating over it, ] Inside this can are my memories... Well, my future memories. My future.

[ She turns the camera around, showing herself looking uncertain. ]

I open that, and I'll change. I'll remember new things, I'll age. I don't know how far into my future it goes. I've been to the future, just... never my own.

I suppose my question is... [ She switches the camera around, back to the canister. ] ...Do I open it?

... And?

[tutee]

and I can't exactly shove it back into the portal.

[godslay]

You could just leave it alone.

[tutee]

just let it gather dust?

[godslay]

Why not? Then you can continue to progress on your own.

[tutee]

I just feel like I wouldn't be able to forget it. it would sit there, taunting me.

[godslay]

You could give it to someone else.

[tutee]

would you trust someone else with your future?

[godslay]

I'm not the one who has to decide.

[tutee]

no, I suppose not.
