[Harper feels that vague tugging too and follows along. When Jon asks his name he gives him a flat stare.]

Is that how we're playing this? Where you pretend to not know me?

[Harper rolls his eyes. Silly brain, trying to mess with him. Maybe it's trying to make this little adventure feel real so it's all meaningful. Harper decides to play along. If it's some kind of escapist fantasy, he may as well commit until he fades out and his neurons stop firing uncontrollably. It's not like he can do anything else.]

Seamus Zelazny Harper, lead engineer of the Andromeda Ascendant. Also, it's only engineer. Also also, technically now I'll be its ex-engineer since apparently I've run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible.

As you know (even though you're pretending not to know) [Silly figment of his imagination.] I'm pining for the fjords now.

[He sure is saying things that probably make no sense. Have fun with that, Jon.]
