My mom and hers, they were taken in by a farmer. Isobel's mom fell in love with him, they had a kid. That's as much as I know. I think Max knew more, but he wouldn't tell me.
All right, so your sister has a great-niece or nephew out there somewhere. Unless you're really going to tell me that Isobel isn't pretty much your sister.
Jesus. So she got out. At least for a little while.
I've just been here a long time, Guerin. Longer than I was back in Roswell. I've tried every way I can think of to crack into the system to even get some kind of a glimpse of what's going on and I haven't even managed to get past the surface. It's frustrating. After more than a year of it, it's more than frustrating. It's disheartening.
In a place where magic is possible, who knows what the rules are? Did he dream it? Was he taken and replaced immediately, like time travel?
So what's your theory? Clones? How did they get the information from the 'real' us? How do they implant it when someone does 'fall asleep' and wake up with memories they didn't have before?

[ Michael never was very good at leaving things on a positive note. That probably won't be a surprise to Alex. ]
There is something, though. Something I'm not even sure your dad ever knew.
There was a kid, Alex. A hybrid, alien kid. He didn't tell me who.

So you mean you might have a great-niece or nephew roaming around out there somewhere?

Didn't last. [ Obviously. ] But it means this kid is out there somewhere. Grown, nearby. Maybe not even aware of where they come from.

Date: 2021-03-20 09:08 pm (UTC)I don't know. I have theories, about what's going on here. I don't think it's straightforward.
But I think you're the one who always tells me that there's hope. It's annoying, Alex, but it's who you are. Don't lose it.

When Max 'went home'? He didn't go home. He fell asleep and dreamed about it, and it matched up with what else we know.
What do you think that means?
