If you have different memories but the same soul, does that make you a different person?

Sure. Isn't that what reincarnation is? On the other hand if they're really the same person but just lost their memories, does it make a difference? Memories are the important thing, they're what define people, right?

... yeah.

It gets trickier when people have the same memories up to a certain point, but then... they split off and go in completely different directions. One person remembers one world, another remembers... a completely separate reality.

[...oh Al, did you know that this covers Asuna, too?]

I...I don't know.

I wouldn't worry about it, Negi, I'm just depressing myself.

...well, if you're going to depress yourself thinking of such things, don't do it alone.

Are you offering to come help?

[Tiny bit of humor back. Negi, he loves you.]

I wish there were. But it's nice to know you care enough to ask.

... [snort] You should ask Kagome about that one.

Or Kikyo if you have the balls..

I already have, she gave me a pretty firm answer on that one... but they're very different.

Obviously they're different.

bloodseal_soul October 21 2009, 15:40:59 UTC
... but...

Then what about if you're not around a person for a long time, and then you're back together with them... are they the same?

It's pretty obvious, isn't it? If you're different, you're a different person. Get over it.

Different, but not completely!
