for the memory (horseshoe 16 evening, video)

[ Kaiba has changed back into his silver-black dueling outfit by now. He looks...slightly glum, but as serious as ever. ]

Alright, I'm just going to say it: that platform trip sucked. Not that that's your fault, newbies. But most of you probably don't want to be here either. Especially with the added chaos.

Red and Blue lost leaders. A third of the council is gone. I know the departed were dear personal friends to many of you, or even family. I generally enjoyed their presence too...and I know many of you feel more. I also know grief is unpredictable. And we're all going to be feeling raw right now. We still don't have answers, it's not fair. So I'm not going to push too hard.

But when we're ready, we need to pick up the pieces and move forward. That means distributing everything we've learned about the train thus far as widely as possible, in the event that the keepers of the information are the next to go. I have the document on voidsickness and the ministry's weird allegations against us, and I'm dropping off a copy of each at every cabin. I'll make requesting more paper for the printer a priority the next time the train stops.

I know someone mentioned a more personal archive of the passengers we've lost before...and that's going to need a lot of updating. I'm willing to print things for that too. But for the sake of the mission, if you have critical information, or even potentially useful information, and you don't want it to be lost when the conductor calls you? Tell whoever you can, or better yet, have us film a recording or type something up. Everyone with archival equipment or abilities, sound off if you can.

Gods...

We should try and make some sort of shrine to them as well. Not a large one, but something to remember them by.

[Teams without leaders, huh? Interesting, if severely inconvenient for the group as a whole.]

My condolences to you and all involved, as I know these things are difficult at the best of times. I just got here, so I don't have that immediate problem on my shoulders; I don't need the time it'd take to recover. That in mind, what can I do to help?

[She'd offer her condolences, but frankly she is soaking in all of the beautiful beautiful intel that was just being offered.]

Thank you for this. I continue to be impressed by both the consideration and the diligence of the more experienced travelers keeping everyone up to speed.

Have you seen any incidence of void sickness...? And is it possible that the report you included was for another void train?

Do we know if there are many other transportation vessels like this one traveling the void?

[ ...well, his heart's not really into talking much today for the exact reason Kaiba started off with, but- ]

What about packing and putting all the info in one place? Like in a folder where people can read it? I guess that's worth talking to everyone with. We wanna know everything that's happened on the train and on other worlds, right? I know Neet's got a lot of notes.

Make a copy or three if you're paranoid about it disappearing.

[ Added for the paranoid folks. Maybe he should be included in that? ]

[Webmind's response is more somber than his usual tone.]

As I had said when Feanor first proposed the measure, I am willing to aid in both storing information and in recording details - both for those no longer among us, and for those currently so if they wish to offer.

[Because some, for various reasons, did not want to be remembered.]

I don't have notes on people, but I am keeping notes and information about the places we've gone to. I'm fine with sharing them, if there's somewhere to put them.

[ He shrugs, but he's not sure if anyone would be very interested in reading his notes or not. ]

My condolences for your loss; though I'd hope they were able to return to their homes and live out normal lives.

[ Calm, even look ]

This collection of information should also be made available in the library, I believe. New arrivals might check there before venturing to their own rooms.

The train logs appear to be available to all, for archival purposes.
