Oh, obviously. But the system does try to point you in specific directions. Just because I never took the hint before doesn't mean I didn't see it.

I don't know what that means, but I don't actually care about the details. I can adjust those later if need be. I'm just out of anything useful to do here, so I'm graduating.

Seven, if you count the mirror incident, which I do. The only difference was the location looked like the barge.

Some of it is working backwards from old notes, because I didn't really think about it at the time, but extrapolating? This last one seemed focused on being a version of myself who had learned to place value on other people's emotions, which I guess is probably a function of having a family from the start? The one before that with the aliens, well, I'm basing some of this off later reactions, but maybe I was supposed to get a sense of self preservation, but honestly I had a great time. People just keep telling me they want me to be more careful not to die. Mirror me was pretty unhappy and unpleasant, but much better at dealing with people and understanding the rules there, so, I don't know, maybe that I have to handle people like me, not like I think other people do it? Being a Yith was just fun; I have no idea what might have been intended there. The train thing was just pretty fun, too, and the fairy, and now we're really far enough back that I was actively avoiding all this stuff, and the first one I had I was just a cook, so maybe that was sort of a trial run.

Right, sorting out the applicable from the incidental is the tricky part.

Maybe an opportunity will present itself for being able to use... things about being related to people.
