Rey, it doesn't explain why they show up in their bed when they come back with their memories. Marcos is an exception to the rule. You know that as well as I do.
But Connor came back when some other people from his world showed up. We had a lot to cover.
I will say that Connor was always ahead of Markus. He mentioned that to me. And that the new arrivals apparently knew a different version of him. A more ruthless version. There didn't seem to be a discrepancy there between Connor and Markus, however.

Honestly I don't know who Markus' friends were.
no subject
All of his other friends are, I believe, gone. Or are someone I can't really ask, but I doubt he'd tell them.
[Jason does come to mind, but Clarke and Jason are not friends.]

Unless you think there's a way to reach out to Ball.

And no, not particularly.

[ to the extent that she had missed that his actual name was jason. ]

I still think breaking and entering is the better plan. I bet Loki would help.
[Okay, she hadn't been very precise about how she intended to sleuth, but that's really it.]
We have to get in before Markus loses his place. You know, to not paying rent.
no subject
You know where he lived?

[ so she hadn't gone. ]
But I could probably help you get in.
no subject
And maybe take some of Markus' stuff and store it away in case he comes back.

[ if there's anything worth salvaging, though rey assumes there is. there usually is. ]
We'll find him. We'll find all of the people who've been lost. It'll just take time.
[ after all, they'd found the morningstar agents. she still has hope for finn and poe and ciri and keith and fitz and peggy too. ]

[Clarke prefers her interpretation: that, in truth, they've gone home and are getting on with their lives.
She just hopes that never happens to her. Is that hypocritical? Perhaps when it comes to these people, who she knows wanted to return.]
no subject
Even Poe, after he was gone for months, showed up again. No memories. Same with Marcos.
They're here. They're in the control of whoever had us in the first place. It's the simplest answer that explains the most things.

Someone could be leaving them in their beds.
no subject
I disappeared and returned six years older. With the scars to match.
no subject
I'd say the people who are still missing have more in common with Poe and Marcos than they do with you.

Only Poe and Marcos disappeared for that much time and came back.
And neither was at home.
[ in fact, poe had ... fewer memories, somehow. this will only complicate her argument, so she doesn't share it :) ]
no subject
[Clarke hadn't been able to touch base with him to see if anything changed.]
no subject
[ she hadn't heard of that but granted she didn't know connor well. she's at least slowing down for a second. ]
And his memories?
