   Summary

   Well, when in doubt, there was always someone Red Hot could trust to give a second opinion. “What do you think, bro?” he asked, eyes on the back of Deep Blue's head.

   “About what?”

   “What that Resolution geezer said. About restoring our memories.”

   Unexpectedly, Deep Blue's easy stride faltered ever so slightly. “Nothing, really.” he shrugged after an oddly long pause, voice disinterested. “Don't people always say not to dwell on the past, anyway?”

   ------
   Deep Blue has been acting oddly for a while. Red Hot tries to figure out why.
