We will be known forever by the tracks we leave. That's a Native American proverb.
No matter what you do, no matter what cares you take... ultimately what leaves a deepest impression in the earth is what remains. It's a pretty concise sentence for a big idea.
[ Private to Otacon, unhackable ]
[Mei Ling sighs a very deep and weary sigh.]
I knew this school was weird. But nobody said I'd have to deal with REX again.
You and Snake ended up piloting it and destroying it and urghhhh.
[She is currently slumped on her desk with her head cradled in her arms as she tries to come to terms with REX, REX ON CAMPUS.THANKS JUSTIN BAILEY.]
[ END TRANSMISSION ]

Date: 2011-06-14 04:41 am (UTC)How did you find out about REX?
[Private, unhackable]
Date: 2011-06-14 04:15 pm (UTC)But wait, stop there. You being, another you, didn't want REX to be found? That makes no sense.
[She genuinely looks like she is going to cry.]
What about the PAL keys? Do you have those somewhere?
Also, where have you been? I can't pick up on your normal codec frequency anymore. Have you been living off instant ramen in your room?

Date: 2011-06-14 06:23 pm (UTC)I was confused when I first came here too!
But there really was another me before. He made a lot of bad decisions, including bringing REX here for safekeeping. It was used during something called the Aparoid wars. There's a lot of information most of it protected by heavy security. I never thought I'd have to try hacking into my own datafiles but there's a first time for everything right? It's so bizarre.
I haven't found the PAL keys either. But I know both of them are here. There's nothing I found yet talking about destroying REX
I've been changing my codec number around, you can never not be safe enough around here.
[Did Otacon's more-than-unusual unshaven beard clue you in]
Yes.I've been crying.A-ah well...Neris left two weeks ago right after graduation.[This explains enough, right?]

I don't know where to start. Let me try...
First off, somehow... I'm from the future.
You have a kid and she took care of you more than you took care of her, but that's not important.So the idea of you having to hack yourself isn't as crazy as it once was.And you shouldn't be so cut up every time this happens Otacon! Do you want me to come over and help clean up, make you some eggs and toast and generally kick you out of your moping? I can show you my Mk II, which I made from your designs.
[Her expression softens.]
... Let's just forget REX for a moment and concentrate on getting you functional so that we can plan a course of action.
