Sorry if this is a weird question. I’m bored and randomly thought about reincarnation and started wondering, thought this would be a fun question. 😉


Rules:

  • All your current memory is instantly transferred when you fall asleep one night (you don’t get any prior knowledge of this so you won’t be able to make any preparations), then when you wake up, you are in the body of a random North Korean kid living in Pyongyang somewhere between age 10 and 14 and matching your gender assigned to your original body at birth (I’m sorry, I know this would be a struggle for those that don’t identify with their gender assigned at birth, but it’s part of the challenges of this hypothetical)

  • All psychological health conditions are also transferred (unfortunately)

  • Your new host body would not have any physical disabilities and is mostly healthy (sort of)

  • You don’t have any of your host body’s original memories, they’re gone. (Edit: You retain any language that your host body’s original consciousness have learned, but no memories) Their consciousness was overwritten by your consciousness’s arrival and they, unfortunately, died. That consciousness wouldn’t know or feel anything, it just vanishes, poof.

  • The person who was originally you in your old body, would immediately die during sleep, at the moment of the consciousness transfer occuring. Doctors could not find a cause of death, and its marked as “Unknown Cause of Death”. No foul play would be found, no one would ever get falsely suspected by authorities of murdering you.


So how do you survive?

How do you plan your escape, or are you even gonna try?

    I don’t have an answer for this, but I love to imagine that these types of threads are posted by novelists trying to clear up any plot holes in their upcoming stories.

      Naw, I’m trying to have better dream scenarios so I don’t end up in a weird zombie apocalypse scenario a few nights ago.

      Like, maybe running across a border is more of a fun dream, terrifying, but at least its not zombies. Think of it as a VR First Person Game, but you’re dreaming. 😅
