If the suppression of emotions and memories can cause memory loss, then there's a slight possibility that it may be one of the reasons why Urd can barely remember. We're not sure yet what Urd has truly gone through but I don't think being Reversed and braving the storm and surviving all the same can lead to anything good and her past is still a mystery to be uncovered.
So possibly it's not just because of the side effects of surviving the storm but also suppressing memories and deep emotions of what she'd gone through is the cause of her amnesiac state. It's an interesting thought to say the least.
Also this implies that there's a slight chance of Vertin slowly losing her memories due to blocking and suppressing strong emotions. Which could not only deal some good heavy angst but also parallel Urd's own if she truly is her mother.

It's a flavour of Monster, an energy drink
It's not sold in McDonald's ironically enough ๐ญ
On another note, think of the profit of Picrasma energy drinks (and how much Vertin's liver will suffer ๐ญ)
I am not a fan of the design. To the shredder.
Oh God you have no idea how many empty cans of that would be scattered around the suitcase. Like Lilya's alcohol consumption or Regulus Dr. Pepper (idk how that's actually written) addiction, girl has so many or those in her fridge, under her bed, in her pockets, under her hat.
Oh my God the suitcase has NEVER had such an outage in money because of Vertin's addiction to it.
It gets banned after a while (Madam Z wrote a letter to the distributors to stop making the drink, for Vertin's safety) and Vertin has to go back to eating candy when her almost unlimited amount of Picrasma Candy Energy drinks becomes limited.
And Tooth Fairy has never been filled with so much bottled rage before.
(Vertin did try to get in contact with the company who made them but they couldn't do any other Picrasma Candy Energy drinks because the foundation prohibited it)
new idea: chess.com chatfic starring constantine playing chess during workhours and her opponents being the kids from SPDM. its basically like the breakaway incident but no one dies and its really jsut this middle-aged woman lording her wins over a bunch of twelve year olds in chess.com chatlogs
anything i do becomes vertin reverse 1999
Few scrappy doodles from the past few days. Been trying to get out of art block but itโs absolutely eating me alive :โ)
There are other sketches but their too incomprehensible to post :โo
This previous post I made helps flesh out their dynamics but I want to talk about how the two could fall in love with each other. It might help put the rest of this post in perspective.
Perhaps Schneider didn't fall in love with Vertin per say, but she saw what they could be. What if she saw enough to say that one day she'd fall in love with this person if she had the chance. Vertin didn't have a long time with Schneider, but in their short time she displayed everything Schneider wished for. It's about impact rather than time, especially since they met in extraordinary circumstances.
So going off of that, if Schneider feels that one day Vertin will be someone special to her due to her character...
Why can't they start right now? Does love have to be done in a specific order for it to be real? Schneider herself is a rather unconventional person so, perhaps this line of thought isn't weird for her.
One day'll fall she'll fall in love with Vertin, so what's wrong with indulging in their relationship now? Whether it's after the first date or 10 dates, if they end up together then why not love each other from now?
That is to say, she doesn't love Vertin; she loves the Vertin she'll inevitably fall in love with the down the line.
Time is short. She has shit to do. They can figure out the middle part along the way but she's looking at the end-game.
She loves the future they could have had together.
Unfortunately she also knows they don't have time to build that future.
As for Vertin, she isn't in love with Schneider either but she feels she could be. Vertin doesnโt know this is the last time she'll see Schneider and thinks in a more conventional sense where they'll get closer day by day. However, Vertin can't have anything "normal" so she's robbed of that possibility. She tries not to think about what ifs since she can't change anything, meaning she ruminates on the past and reality of the situation.
Vertin's fixated on the loss she suffered in the past.
Schneider focused on future she knows they can't have.
But, perhaps in a convoluted way, they started falling in love the moment they actually looked at each other in the hours before the Storm. When their visions aligned in the present.
