... I don't know. Maybe... maybe he found a way to just fade away. He spoke about that. I can try reaching him, if you're willing.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

It won't hurt. Just sit comfortably. There should be enough of him for me to find.

-Sits down and relaxes- Do your thing, then.

{Huh?}

-That's him, barely-

-But it's not him-

-It's Zack-

-He subsumed him-

-whoops-

{"Shit" is kind of the last thing I wanna hear when someone's rooting through my head.}

-Breaks off-

... He's... You've overtaken him. He's more-or-less inextricable from you at this point.

There isn't really a "him" any more. He's all... mixed in with you.

-Says nothing for a moment-

I feel like I should be more upset over this.

... Maybe it was his time.

-Doesn't sound pleased, but more in a "I know you didn't mean to spill your corn flakes all over the carpet, it's okay kiddo" kinda way-

You're not more upset over this?

I'm not happy he's gone, but... he could have left you at any time, but chose not to. He decided you living was more important than him having a self. And... he's not all gone, as long as you're still here.

Maybe I'm just being morbid. I did spend a few months figuring out ways he could die for good, after all. Maybe this really was the best way things could have gone. I'm sorry you got caught up in it all.

It's been a hell of a ride, I guess.

-Gets up after a moment and fishes a beer out of the fridge-

He's what kept me coming back here.

-Accepts it-

Trying to keep him out of trouble. Trying to keep the timelines bearable.

People here aren't all that... comfortable around me. The first thing I did after showing up was try to kill their Cloud.

I'd... well I'd only recently started thinking in terms of other timelines. I'd gone ages without having flashes, and I started really reflecting on what they all meant now that temporal inevitability wasn't breathing down my neck. And I sort of... stumbled onto another timeline. Took me a while, but I eventually learned to hop between them, and how to find my way back to the real one. Like it was instinctive.

It wasn't long before I noticed some things were... off. Some Clouds had vanished entirely. And there were signs of another force meddling. The Cloud responsible had been taking bodies, and subsuming them on more than one occasion.

Even though they were doomed timelines, I guess I felt that since I was the Prime Cloud, I had a responsibility to stop him. Eventually, we came to this arrangement. He stuck to timelines where he was dead and gone, and played it safe and subtle. The more he went through, the harder that got. The timelines he could find were getting less and less familiar.

I ended up having to give him more wriggle room than I'd have liked. There wasn't much choice, though. He was immortal. He'd have lost his mind without a world to live in. ''

-Looks a bit uneasy at all this but doesn't comment-

-Takes a drink in silence-

Is that why you're a tightass?
