Hi guys.

I'm honestly just a little curious about something, and you know what they say - 'curiosity killed the cat' and all that, so. Here goes nothing.

You know how we've been getting maps to our past lives' worlds and all that? Well, I found mine. Apparently I lived in Yokohama? I knew it was in Japan, but not any exact location, so knowing that is honestly kind of neat. But also. . . I met my past self's boyfriend. I was kind of surprised, really, because he looked exactly as I remembered him. A part of me was kind of afraid that maybe he'd reenact a scene from my past life, but.

It was kind of strange.

The way he reacted when I talked to him was what I expected from him. How he always was. And when I introduced myself, said that my name was different from my past life, he didn't question me or anything. He just accepted it, and called me by my normal name. The one I have here.

Is it weird, that I don't know what to do? I know a lot of people here are going to want to stay here. Live out their lives in Recolle, or maybe move out of the city when all's said and done. But. . . what if someone wanted to make the choice to go back to their past life because they were happier there? Would that really be such a bad thing? It's kind of scary to think about, really, since it kind of feels that if I chose that option, I'd be betraying my 'current self' and the people I care about. That's why I want to hear some advice.

To see what you guys think, I guess.

Sorry this got kind of tl;dr, but I just wanted to put my thoughts out there, really. Since it's a bit of a complex topic to talk about.

First things first: DST sucks, when are we getting rid of it?

Second of all, having too much free time means being curious about a few things. And you know what they say: 'curiosity killed the cat'. I was wondering if it really is uncommon for people to have better past lives than their current ones... and if it's uncommon to not have any physical changes or like, not gain any magical powers or anything like that?

That's all. Thanks in advance for any answers.

I'd say "happy Valentine's" but this application has currently ruined the holiday in the worst possible way. Why couldn't we have had forced blind dating? Or even Cupid arrow shenanigans? I would have liked either of those.

So, a quick set of inquiries. There are still sane people on the app that haven't gone obsessive crazy, right? Or know someone that can help with self defense... I kind of need it now.
