So. Did we ever figure out how to prevent losing limbs/organs like our other selves did?

It's something of a long story.

What did you end up losing, through curiosity?

[lienhearts]

I have time

Anyway it's just a kidney for me. It won't kill me, but it's not like I want to lose random organs because another me decided to give them up

[Which is a slightly different framing from "sold," but in the end it was... probably? For a good cause?? So he's going to at least make it sound noble and not at all shady.]

Is it something that has yet to happen, then, or something that you suspect already may have?

[lienhearts]

Just gonna ignore the first part, huh

Anyway I'm pretty sure I still have both my kidneys, therefore I'd like to keep them

As most would. I do wish you luck with that much, at least.

As for the first part, the short version is a combination of "horrible god complexes" and "brainwashing children never ends well for anyone, and I've no idea why people continued to try to do it."

[lienhearts]

Sounds like you've got lots of great memories there

[manufactured]

Positively delightful, really.

[lienhearts]

Does it, like...

Mess with you? Now? Remembering shit like that

[Like granted, remembering the whole process of getting a kidney removed as a child has definitely fucked with him a bit here, but.]

...It does, admittedly. I'd honestly be more concerned if it didn't, at this point.

In the off chance I remember other traumatic shit

Any tips?
