Ooh, so a third species gave them the spaceship so they could escape?
Possibly! Or they stole the spaceship to escape when the space-faring species invaded their original planet. Or they were actually slaves on their home planet (but of the same species as the people who had the knowledge to build spaceships). Or ...
Now I want to see the angry spaceship rental agent come and try to get it back... *g*
LOL! That'd be a great crack fic - they are bound to have violated the lease in so many ways. I wonder what the contractual penalty is...
Commit or get out, none of this half-way stuff!
*g* Looks like that's where our tastes differ! I am *so weak* to identity issues - and to me, the identity issues loom more threateningly when the memories are from someone who can technically be seen as the same person, but who still acts and thinks in ways completely foreign to the person in question. Reconciling that... that can be rough.
Someone else's memories would be fascinating in a different way, though, and I would very much love to read that story, too!
Basically, I just want to read ALL THE STORIES, and am glad the reincarnation plots weren't taken off the table with the time loop. Guardian lets us have our cake and eat it, too. :-)
