I don't really love the idea of becoming someone different than the person my friends know and care about. Or, like...all the stuff they're not going to like. Bad times in the memories. Reasons why I'm never gonna manage to stay out of trouble. Looking more like this.
But also? It's way better to feel like I know who I am, and where I came from, and why I'm like this. What I'm good for. Stuff like that. Before, I just felt super confused all the time, and like I was always making people upset, and getting upset, and I didn't know why. Or what was wrong with me. That felt way, way worse.

... It makes sense to me. Especially since you're someone who lost his memories before. In a way, this might be simpler... more convenient, too.

I didn't think you were! And it's true, you don't know much, do you?
Well, here's a key fact: I'm not a good person, Aster.

I am something of a mass murderer.

I'm guessing you mean in the memories.
