... I don't know - I get glimpses of others. It's a lot of similar stuff that I've done up to now actually... but there's always scars on my hands. Right up to my elbows -

No one was even around... like I'd gone off on my own to do something really stupid.
[Baren offers up a smile at that, shaking his head.]
... just weird, you know? To get visions of a life like this one - but kinda different? I dunno. Chuu got one where I broke up with him without an explanation a few nights ago, too.
