is it better that he didn't get this memory when he was 9, who can say

Who else remembers historical figures in their past lives, except they're weird?

I'm not talking 'oh I met Lincoln once and he was a little more casual than history books make him out to be' or whatever. I'm talking about 'Francis Drake was a woman with gigantic breasts' kind of weird.

That's not a hypothetical example.

Well, not historical figures per se, but I feel as if I would be just as bewildered should something of that sort happen as I am right now.

My little sister could apparently turn into a dragon. I'm not sure if this is just some...hallucination? Imagining? Or if it was real.

Though I do feel bad for Francis' back. A former lover of mine often complained that boobs were the worst on your upper back...

I'll be honest?

That version of Francis Drake sounds completely awesome.

Do famous mythological figures count?

not that i doubt that the memories are intentionally designed to be as ridiculous as possible
but are you sure that wasnt just some unfortunate girl named after the real guy?

Does "a historical figure that might actually have magic", count? Or at least, like, telekinesis.

Also. I'm not the one who remembers this. I just know someone on Retrospec who is an actual historical figure.

That's disturbingly specific.
