Were you killed before you came here?

Were you in mortal danger before you woke up here?


If you were returned to your home, would you return to a dead body?

When consciousnesses are transferred, it's usually the consciousness of a formerly organic being into a cybernetic body. I'm not a scientist, so I still don't really get it, but it's like the consciousness that develops starts from a model of the old one. At the same time, though, those models continue to exist in the new being's subconscious.

Maybe it just has something to do with the way our bodies are built, more than the other?

Hmm, I find your explanation a little confusing; why wouldn't the new being's consciousness continue to grow and change on its own? Being cybernetic in no way limits your ability to learn and change.

I've got a few friends who are kinda like that, so believe me, I know. I was just kind of trying to figure out why the consciousness changes into something entirely different, and thought that since your people perfected it, you might have an idea.

Perhaps if you gave me a more specific idea of the changes shown? My people have had this technology for generations, so any problems would have been dealt with some time ago.
