Yeah. I think right now, I'm the only one who remembers everything about "me", 'cause it's my life. [ Everything his Sidereal colleagues might know about his life before...is either whatever bits he's told them, or that they've gleaned through talking with him. Or whatever was in that file Mirror compiled before she came to fetch him, apparently. ]
"Day" is... [ ...Damn, he probably has to explain something else first for this make sense. ] The reason why I can't stay in people's memories is 'cause my fate is hidden from the world, yeah? Same goes for the rest of us in the bureau. So the world won't acknowledge me, 'less I'm right there and they're forced to. And as soon as I'm not, out of sight, out of memory.
It makes our work difficult, so we have to work 'round it somehow. "Joyous Day"...is an identity I wove from the stars. A Resplendent Destiny that represents a role that the world will acknowledge me as. Kinda like slottin' myself in the world's destiny, even if it can't really be "me".
[ A beat. ]
Mighta made the mistake of makin' "Day" a lot like my old life. [ You know, the thing every senior Sidereal has told him to proceed with caution about? ]
