Pretty much. There's some things we remember? Like I know how old I am. And I think some things about us stayed the same, mostly since if it was a complete wipe for everything, we'd be pretty useless.
[ they point at themself. ]
Like, wherever I come from must have had modern technology, since I know what a computer is. Things like that.
As long as you keep the core of who you are, thatβs what matters the most, but of course I hope weβll be able to regain what youβve lost. [ a pause. ] We will regain it.
[ if thereβs a choice in the matter, sheβs going to choose to help. ]
How old are you?
[ sheβs going to treat them with respect no matter what but thereβs a scale to it. ]
[ they do not know how to respond to the first thing, so they just answer the question. ]
It's the Realm who makes them, but I think some were made based on decisions we did? Like, the one about food wasn't there until we stocked up the kitchen for you guys.
There are certain things the Realm is extremely firm on to the point where are hands are severely tied. But, nova is forever changing since it's made up of memories which are also forever changing, blah blah blah, so that has the power to make things shift.
But that's how rules and laws generally are, right? Most things aren't illegal until some asshole does something stupid.

[ That's worrying and also saddening. ]
Is your memory and the other Leaders' memory the same in that regard?
[ Is it equal amnesia across the board? If the Leaders have the ability to slow down Participant memory loss, is it not stretched to them, as well? ]

Sixteen.

[ She'd say that even if they said they were six hundred years old or six thousand. ]
The rules that we were given— are they from you, the Leaders, or the Realm?

Jeanne looks thoughtful. ]
So it adapts based on actions taken. Interesting.... I didn't think it'd be so easily influenced. I'm a little worried about that last rule.

[ She smiles. It's hard to say if she's teasing or not, but she thinks she understands. ]
I'll pray no one does something so impactful that the Realm has to create or amend the rules we already have. I'd like it if they stayed harmless.

[ they are thinking about the microwave. ]
But as long as it's not someone on my team, then I don't have to be the one to personally deal with it,

sorry tiger ]
There hasn't been a rule about the microwave yet. Or the river.
[ She will admit her actions at the river were not the smartest, but she is working on it!! ]
So perhaps those are references in what will and won't affect things here.

[ it was not tiger. ]

[ Hmm, she thinks about this a little more. ]
To what extent can you affect our environment?
no subject
[ he's a centaur. ]
So, we can like... modify things, but we can't change it too drastically.

We will do our best to end this together, won't we?

You're not hitting on me, are you?

She immediately drops their hands and backs away, flustered. ]
W-Wh-What? Why would you say that? I wouldn't be so improper.

I know I gave everyone condoms but I didn't think they'd be getting used this quick?
