[ I mean she's still out in Magatus but there's a thought which has sort of lingered in the back of her mind for a while now and as such more to clear her mind from thoughts of wolves and the thoughts of her own son (including of all things puns, why??? she's going to put out vaguepost in the form of: ]

So does anyone else have children in the memories they've been getting?

To answer my own question the woman I am in my memories has a son and then her son has three children as well.

[ So this tbh pretty young looking 41 year old is a grandmother in her memories but that's beside the point. ]

Oh.

No, that makes a lot of sense, to wish that. It used to frustrate me when there were more gaps.

[sivard]

Do you have a lot of gaps in your memory about the other you's family even now?

[matchbreaker]

not really?

Maybe?

I suppose it depends on what you mean by gaps. I can tell you the gist of what they're all like, recount some events about them all. But it's not like it's the same as actually living with them.

[sivard]

Well, that's something, I guess.

I can't say I really remember a whole lot about anyone-- and I know I know several people here from whatever you'd call our past lives.

But it's also not like anyone is going to be picking up their old lives again anytime soon.

[matchbreaker]

If they are, I have to question how attached they were to the life they've lived here.

But oh really? I'm not sure if that's lucky or not, I have no one like that.

[sivard]

That sounds pretty unfortunate. Maybe someone will show up on the app, you never know.

It helps, having someone else to talk to, though it's... weird for me, because I feel like I'm missing something major, but at the moment I don't know what.

[matchbreaker]

Is it unfortunate?

I'm not sure id it's for the best that there's no one, really.

[sivard]

Maybe.

It's probably just a matter of perspective, but I feel like if this whole restoring our worlds thing has any merit at all, it sounds daunting to be doing it by yourself, you know?

Though none of us are really alone, I suppose.

[matchbreaker]

From that perspective, then no, perhaps it could be better.

On the other hand, it's a lot to hoist up onto someone, the weight of my memories of a "them" they don't remember and that isn't precisely them.

[sivard]

Yeah, agreed.

It's important first and foremost to be for the here and the now. Anything else just makes things really complicated.

[matchbreaker]

[ Not to mention, they're supposedly dead ]

Certainly so.
