I would like to ask if you knew who I was before I referenced our meeting. :) I must say, this really is quite a fun way to spend time!

I agree wholeheartedly that we would need a larger pool of participants, but I understand not everyone would be comfortable speaking of it. My own views may yet change, too, but as of now I do want to contribue to this. I shall notify you if anything changes.

Is that how memories are formed? I confess I am either unaware of the more scientific side of the matter or have forgotten what knowledge I had. However, I do wonder whether it is possible to restore our memories without resorting to the system in place. If our reflexes and base knowledge of the world - or rather, our respective worlds, - remain, then I would say that our memories are locked away rather than erased, and thus could be brought back without necessary direct contact with them, so to speak.

I wasn't quite sure, to be perfectly honest, but there's not that many people here who are are prone to philosophizing this way, so if it was someone I had met, that did rather narrow the people it could be.

There's quite a lot of interesting science about the formation of memory, as well as how repeated experience contributes to skill-building and formation of rote responses—which is usually good, but also can create maladaptive coping mechanisms in the case of trauma, where the mind attempts to protect itself overactively.

I would in fact agree that it is likelier a case of memories being locked away—so I wonder if there are alternate ways to restore them, too. There's some science on that where I come from, too, but nothing terribly conclusive, and it wouldn't be entirely relevant due to the fact that I have no idea how science interacts with demon magic.
