He said "I bet you don't remember me"
With a small grin, Remi finally crosses to the edge of the pool; the water of the Eyes of Vi is clear and still, disturbed only by the soft dip of his canister as he crouches to fill it. The reflected sky shivers with the motion, sunlight catching along the rim.
"It’s alright," he says over his shoulder, voice easy. "I don’t mind being a sounding board. Even if I’m a bit of a damp one." The humour is dry, faint but real, and he glances back toward Maea with a crooked smile. "And for what it's worth, I don’t think portals and mirrors are bad ideas, but you'll probably second-guess yourself a lot less if it's just more than me who agrees with you." He lets the lid click closed on the canister and tucks it carefully into the pack at his hip.
"Maybe just...start with a few conversations. See what people are already thinking. Maybe they’ve got ideas of their own. You’re not wrong about the water rising—some of them might already be looking for a way to swim."
He stands again, brushing his hands on the sides of his pants as he chuckles at her last comment. "You didn’t dampen my spirits, Maea." His tone softens as he slings the pack back over his shoulder. "I’ve got more than a little travel ahead of me too. Still quite a few more places to visit before my anniversary." Turns out, he and Ronin had been all over Caido in their decade here.
He gives the pool one last glance, then looks back to her. "Let me know if you need anything?"

and I said "only ever other memory"
