{2/9} - Two of Nine: A Nine Lives Forum adventure

[Lilium Mortem]

I'm not sure that'd be the best plan...keeping your reincarnation secret, that is. Your whole disposition is going to change because of this. Your views on things, your sudden surge in basic computer skills, everything. You're still the same person, sure. They're going to notice the difference though, even if you try to act as you had before. ESPECIALLY if you try to act as you had before, it'd be stilted and uncanny. Trust me, I've known people like that.

Your best bet would be to let them know that you're reincarnated, but ask that they treat you the same as before. I'm sure they'd understand. It is your choice, though. Feel free to ask any questions of us if you'd like.

...Also, we're hardly 4chan. That's almost insulting.

Maybe I should just call you 9chan then. Get it? Because cats, and nine lives… yeah we can workshop that later.

I get a second chance here. I get to be a kid, do dumb stuff, have friends, grow up. All my life here My parents knew for a fact that I was a new life, a new person they brought into this world. They want to see me grow up and they are so nice, better than my last parents.

I want this life. I want to enjoy it as Scud, the weird kid who makes art and doesn’t care what other people think. The kid who makes friends and has a blast doing stupid stuff like setting off homade fireworks or making swords out of scrap metal.

But… you’re right. I can’t keep the secret forever. But I will, just for one week. Just one last time they can treat me the same. Just one last birthday I can be myself without the baggage of memories from earth.
 

Hmmmm are you sure you're not using them for some kind of selfish feel-good wish fulfillment thing?

What's the point of keeping a secret like this in a world in which these kinds of things explicitly happen? Why lie to people who love you? You *are* still just a kid, it's not like they're going to treat you as something else.

And how long do you think we're gonna let you keep us a secret?

Yeah, I am being selfish. I get a do over. I just wish… I wish my memories would have returned later. I wish I could be ignorant. I know I can’t keep it up, the other guy convinced me of that.

I still want to keep going for a little while. I want to be selfish for just a week. Just a week. Let me have that.

What do you mean ‘giving myself a command’? Do you think you’re controlling me? I’ve ignored or refuted your thoughts before. What would that even accomplish? I’d just give myself a thought I already had?

Also is it just the nature of this weird dream forum or do you start your thoughts with a >? What’s up with that?

Anyway good idea about the research. I’ll google stuff when I wake up. Though I guess since google doesn’t exist here I’ll… I don’t even know if there’s a name for the search engine here. It just has a box that says ‘search’, or rather the Kaz equivalent.
