I'm on my own, if that's what you're getting at.
A couple people I know have gone back into stasis. They haven't woken up again, though.
We still haven't gotten a straight answer for why that happens.

[ Interesting. That all sounds a little too familiar, and 76 isn't the least bit surprised that Alan isn't really Alan. ]
Do you want it to mean something here too?

[ Okay, that's fair enough. 76 knows a thing or two about identity crises. ]
Should I call you something else? Or is it still 'Alan'?

Hey Jack! Jack! Guess what I have. Guess. Guess?
It's he great!!!!
[ Reinhardt is just stupidly excited to share his good fortune. ]

Understood.
I'll add any pertinent information to your database.

Have you made any attempts to talk to the Orbiters? They seem suspiciously hard to track down.
[ It's not like Jack is even given a chance to guess, though that's really not the point. Reinhardt has a horse now. One that looks just as giant as he is, so in that way it's a good fit. ]
Where did he come from?
Where did he come from?
I honestly don't know. Before I...went back to sleep, I didn't have him. When I woke up again, he was here. Maybe he's a gift from our friends in the sky, ja?
For three days. I remember I was going to the morning market and then the next thing I know, it's three days later and I'm waking from the pods again.
Nein. I was in perfect health.
I... [ He knows he shouldn't say anything because he doesn't want to worry his friend, but he can't keep it secret. It''ll come out eventually and he'd rather Jack hear it from him. So he's going to do a callback to their first meeting. ]
What year is it for you, Jack?[ Last time, he had said for him it was 2075 ] It's....2076 for me...

[ None of what Jack is reading makes any sense. He distinctly remembers their first conversation, and that Reinhardt had been a year behind him. How could he have gone into stasis for three days, only to now think that a year has passed back home? Home isn't supposed to exist anymore, so what does any of this even mean? ]
Are you saying that you suddenly got a whole year's worth of memories? Did you ask the Orbiters about it?
[ The whole cryo situation just gets stranger and stranger, and Jack has to wonder when it'll be his or Ana's turn to get shoved back into one of those pods. ]
