[ Julie casts her eyes to the ground and shakes her head a little. No, she doesn't do it anymore. She'd stopped because she had to walk for two months, across multiple states, all on her own. And then in Vegas, she'd chosen instead to drown herself in champagne and cocaine and designer clothes, rather than remember everyone she lost. Her story is a long, complicated one, and the only person in any universe that knew the whole thing is gone now, sent back to his death. She doesn't even know if the other dregs of humanity left in her world are still around. Maybe Boulder got lucky and made it work.
If not, Julie and Nadine are the only souls left anywhere who remember that Earth. ]
I couldn't keep it up. I had to -- there was a long trip I had to make, I couldn't take that kinda stuff with me. I still remember the names, though. All my family, my friends. People from town.
[ Even people she met in Vegas, she can remember their names. None of it goes away, not the names or the faces or the voices. She can only block it out, try to stack the new people in front of those memories so that she doesn't have to think about it all. ]
There are a lot of people here I'm glad I met. I kinda thought I would never meet a new person ever again.
