bored on my break that means it's summer dreams info dump time babey. today's interest lies in reincarnation <3

So we know that digis don't die. Their data returns to whatever-the-hell & they turn back into eggs. In this au, that specifically means they return to primary village where they'll be looked after by elecmon (who put this 12 year old in charge of fathering the entire digital world 😭).

Something I've always wanted to expand on though was memory. From the small amount of seen reincarnations in the animes, they typically don't remember their past lives but tbh that makes me sad & what's the point of aus if not to make you happy yk. So here's the thing with this one

When digis are reborn, they obv hatch as fresh forms. From there it's in-training, then they get to be rookies. These are the only 3 stages that matter rn. Now it varies by individual, but typically the range of remembering the most to least goes by fresh > rookie > in-training.

Fresh forms are literal babies. The more traumatic the death of their past life, the fussier the fresh typically is. This is because they remember everything about their past lives & their tiny little baby minds can't handle it. Typical deaths by accident or battle make for normally fussy babs. The rare peaceful deaths make for peaceful babs. Makes sense right? Idk I'm having fun with this. These little dudes have too much emotion for their itty bitty little baby forms to deal with, but luckily that's really the only thing they have to deal with.

When the fresh is able to go up a level, in-trainings are now at complete peace lmao. They don't remember anything of their past lives. It's like a hard reset lmao. They're too busy looking at bright colors & wondering how to use limbs to worry about anything else.

When they go up another level, however, that's when things can get interesting again. Rookies have the ability to begin remembering again. This is when the Traumatic Death Scale™ comes back. Deaths that were peaceful to not-very-traumatic leave a low chance of remembering anything. From there, the more traumatic the death, the higher the chance of remembering things becomes. Very Traumatic Deaths goes down a little though, with an effective 50/50 chance of remembering Everything or Nothing At All. Often these monster middle schoolers will be reminded of familiar sights or events by things they see or do. Worse case scenario, they have to deal with phantom pains. This stays constant now with however many times they're able to evolve from there.

I had a point with this? I don't remember. may add onto this later or smth 💀

I miss the p0rnbot spam honestly and I even miss the "help my pet" scams. Can we get those back please instead of the "war-torn country" scammers that prey on moral OCD and guilttripping and have convinced like half of tumblr that it's Morally Correct And Activism to fall for scams???
