Question.

How do you continue on knowing your existence is a lie? If you were a copy of the original person I guess.

do you feel like a copy?

don't ask that!

[carrythesin]

Sort of.

Re: don't ask that!

[puppy_lancer]

what about your memories?
as long as you can remember being a certain person, you might as well as be that person.
and i don't think whether you're a copy or not matters to your friends. for all they know, copy or not, you're still you.

Even if you are a copy of someone else, that doesn't mean that your existence in a lie, right? You are still you.

[carrythesin]

How though? The only memories that belongs to me are the ones I had for a couple months. Everything else isn't mine.

[forfeiture]

Then those memories are still yours. It's important to focus on the parts that make you 'you', the ones that are different than the original.

[fatherssins]

At the point of copying the two objects that are being copied are indeed identical, however, no two integers can stay the same. If you believe yourself to be an identical copy of another person then the likelihood is that over time, despite sharing similar materials, you will stray from the original.

Many of us have difficulty accepting the nature of our existence, it is the will to rise above the preconceptions or negative values of our nature that create strong, independent people.

Hm, why is it that when I write anything out it sounds like a lecture.

[carrythesin]

No, it's okay.

It doesn't bother me.

[fatherssins]

I'm glad to hear that it doesn't.

The ethos of my words may have been clouded by my syntax but the general idea was that I hope you don't feel lost in regards to your nature.

[keybearer]

[...Ah.

All he can think of his Replica. After all, he had his own set of false memories. A belief that he was the real deal...

Hmm.]

I guess I'd just... try to move forward. Live my own life and build new memories.

[carrythesin]

[This one is fully aware where she stands.]

And what about the old memories? Could you forget them?

[keybearer]

It's hard to forget the past. Believe me, I know that from experience.

But you can't just let them weigh you down.

[sawthelockdown]

Actually, I'm kind of wondering that myself.

Do you think it applies to reincarnations too? Being a copy, I mean.

[carrythesin]

I don't know.

Were you born with parents?

[sawthelockdown]

As far as I know, yes.

[Though she could have been cloned from their original dead child or crashed to earth on a meteorite or...]

[dialectics]

You make your own path. Regardless of to what specifications you may have been created, your future is your own, just as your unit is it's own. If the Creators intended you to act a certain way, as sapient life in any form, you have every right to defy this means if it is not the future you desire.

[carrythesin]

Is it strange the path I wanted was the path I thought I had?

[dialectics]

It is not strange to desire a return to that which is familiar; comforting. Yet you are still 'alive', correct?

[blackwyrm]

I don't know if this really count, but I am just an personification of my true self.

[Read: Hey, I am an online game character.]

[carrythesin]

Personification?

[Never played an online game.]

[blackwyrm]

I am an avatar, to put it lightly.

[restitchtime]

If you're still breathing then your existence isn't a fucking lie. You're alive, so keep living and make the most of it.

[carrythesin]

Okay...

[tempus_scorpius]

As in a clone...?

[carrythesin]

Yes...
