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.

[quantumnomad]

Maybe he wants to end the cycle. Or maybe he wants to perpetuate it.

Is he taking an extreme approach to getting what he wants?

[infirmiere]

Do you mean does he kill us?

[quantumnomad]

It felt rude to ask it like that after you said you love him.

[infirmiere]

Not romantically

He does, almost every time

[quantumnomad]

Do you remember your first life?

[infirmiere]

I do

I was named after my father, I have three older brothers, I'm the only girl. Sylvie was my dearest friend growing up and when we learned I could heal our fathers arraigned for us to marry so I would be under his father's protection

[ she married rich, bay bee! ]

[quantumnomad]

Was that common? Having a special ability.

[infirmiere]

Common enough

Now it seems to be just us, like magic dried up over the years. It might have, witches were certainly hunted enough to erase bloodlines and poor girls like Jeanne were burned for seeing visions

[quantumnomad]

I was imprisoned and sentenced to burn at the stake for knowing CPR. They only backed off because I "prayed" for rain having future knowledge the drought would be ending around then.

[infirmiere]

Oh that's terrible :(

I can't say for sure it's only us left, there's 7 billion people out there and I'm not so self-obsessed, but it does feel like it would be unheard of now

[quantumnomad]

I thought I was the only time traveler but then there was another one, so you might be surprised.

[infirmiere]

Fingers crossed
