[ This changes everything. She gasps in shock at first, hands shaking. ]

I don't know what's wrong with me. Anything before waking up in the well is a total blank.

You can get my memories back?

[If Henry actually has any reaction to this, he doesn't show it. Instead he just prattles on cheerfully like they're talking shop about hobbies.]

You woke up in a well? That must have been rough. Mildew and everything? Nya ha! Anyway, if you give me a bit I bet I could whip up the best cure for amnesia you've ever seen. I'll even make it taste nice, just for you. No maggots or anything.

[He does not appear to be kidding.]

Or I can help you make up new ones instead, that's always fun.

[ He's definitely weird, but she doesn't think he's lying. Well. She HOPES he isn't lying. What do people look like when they lie? She doesn't know. ]

I'd like to get my old memories back first, even if there are maggots. How long does it take?

[murdery]

Dunno! Never done it before. I gotta try a few things first, but I'll let you know once I got something for ya.

[ultimagi]

Never? Then how do you know it'll work?

[ She wants it noooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww ]

[murdery]

Why wouldn't it work?

[Patience Terra gosh!!!]

So I'll need something from you to get started, though. Got any fingernail clippings? Dead skin? Organs will work too, if there are any you're not using.

[A strand of hair is also fine, but where's the fun in that?]

[ultimagi]

[ She frowns, brow furrowing. She's pretty sure she's using them all (though it's not like she'd know if she wasn't), but the first two didn't seem so impossible.

With only that brief moment of pause, she withdraws a dagger from a sheath at her hip. She flips it into an easy forward grip in one hand, the other lifted with palm up, fingers stiffly folded. The blade is quick, and — oh, okay. She doesn't have any fingernail clippings handy, so she's just whittling shards of nail from her fingers and letting the pieces fall into her waiting palm.

Hope they didn't need to be in perfect half-moons, guy. ]

[murdery]

[They don't need to be half moons, apparently! He's delighted just to receive this much.]

Wow, thanks! People usually don't want to cooperate for some reason. It's like they think hexes just happen for free!
