[ Boothill's reaction makes Caelus laugh a little. It's not a bad thing. The fact that he can react with such vehemence is probably proof that the Galaxy Ranger really is a good person, past the bluster and the troublemaking. Or maybe it's just that he can't imagine what it must be like to go through life without the precious memories that drive him. ]
Is it that weird? Haha. [ Caelus shakes his head. ] Yeah, I'm not kidding, it's true. I guess I never thought it was that strange because March has amnesia too. The girl with the pink hair and the bubblegum face — you saw her for a sec, I think? Maybe having amnesia makes it easier to decide to be a Nameless.
[ That's two people with amnesia! On the same train! Serenely, he returns to his work with reconnecting Boothill's leg to his knee socket. The soft hum of the soldering pen going off punctuates his sentences. ]
It's different, though. 'Cause in movies and books and stuff, people always regain their memories eventually, right? Or they find out they have family or whatever. Like March might still have a family out there in the galaxy somewhere. We don't know.
[ Zap. Zap. Zap. ]
...I met the people I was with before I had amnesia already. It's kind of complicated, but I guess they don't need me with them anymore. And I don't think I'm gonna remember that time again. So I just have to move on, I guess.
[ Slowly, Boothill's leg starts to regain full control of its functions. Caelus is holding the man by the ankle like he's a princess awaiting a glass slipper. The Trailblazer looks up and smiles sheepishly. ]

It's just kind of weird.
