[infirmiere]

I am

But I've been 23 loads of times so cumulatively, no

[quantumnomad]

I'm 42.

[infirmiere]

You don't look it

[quantumnomad]

Thanks. I guess I'm chronologically 45 but timeline shenanigans. and I haven't been in my body in years.

[infirmiere]

It's not gonna be a thing, is it? The age difference

[quantumnomad]

If you only had 23 years of actual lived experience, it would be. But I know you're older than me.

[infirmiere]

Cool, thanks

[ which, god, makes her sound only twenty-three. it's just that logan made it a thing and it drove her insane. ]

I thinks 45 would look amazing on me, personally

[quantumnomad]

I'm sure it would. It's a multiple lives thing, isn't it? Not a single very long one.

[infirmiere]

Nope. Never seen wrinkles or grey hair, I always look like this. Sometimes my hair is different, depending on my parents at the time

[quantumnomad]

Do you remember your past lives when you're a child or do the memories return gradually?

[infirmiere]

Sometimes

I remembered this time on my 6th birthday, I was very unsettling child. Last time Sylvie didn't find me until I was older than this, 27 I think. I didn't remember until he grabbed me

Usually it's around 14/15 and we all spend a few years trying to find each other.

[quantumnomad]

Sylvie is a guy?

[infirmiere]

It's short for Sylvain

[quantumnomad]

Do you always have the same names too?

[infirmiere]

No, we might be the same souls returned to new bodies but our parents don't know their baby is recycled

[quantumnomad]

how do you find each other?

[infirmiere]

✨ Destiny ✨

IDK it's like a cosmic tether and one of us handily has precognitive dreams so Emmet does most of the heavy lifting

[quantumnomad]

That's interesting. I have a lot of follow-up questions.

[infirmiere]

Go for it

[quantumnomad]

How many of you are there? Do you all have powers? Do you know why you remember your past lives?

[infirmiere]

13 and a cunt, yes, sort of

The cyclical nature of our lives is because we're keeping the last of our number from getting a book and presumably ending the world, in order to do that we have to know what we're getting into so it might be that

[quantumnomad]

13 people trapped into an endless cycle of having to find and kill some bad guy?

[infirmiere]

Yeah

The worst part is we were friends with him and I still love him

[quantumnomad]

Why does he want to end the world?

[infirmiere]

He says he doesn't, but he won't tell me what he actually wants. At this point I'm not sure he knows himself.
