the only one who can fuck me is me.

[liltuna]

would you fuck your clone? a crack meme for pondering the impossible...   A question as old as time, or at least as old as Buzzfeed. How many intellectuals over the years have pondered the very same question you're being faced with now? Did Socrates wonder about the moral quandaries that accompany clone sex? Did Plato? Does a dilemma so complex have a right answer? If so, does your character know it?    how to play 1. Your character has been posed the question, 'Would you fuck your clone?' Top-levels should be responses to this question. Blank top-levels will be deleted. 2. Chat around with others and debate over the ethics of engaging your hypothetical clone in such a way.

In some universes we don't even exist.

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

Never sure if we don't exist, or if we were just smart enough to stay away from the cape and cowl crowd.

[theotherobin]

Smart enough? That sounds like a big fucking lose to me.

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

Maybe it goes different for you. I don't know your life, so I can't judge.

But me? This life took a lot from me. [Jason gives a wry sort of smile.] And I'm only starting to put the pieces back together, years later.

[theotherobin]

This is the best shit has ever been for me. Wouldn't change any of it. What'd you do to fuck it all up, huh?

[cause yeah, it's always him. them. whatever.]

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

I tried to save my mother's life.

[theotherobin]

When you were a kid?

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

When I was Robin.

My biological mother is not the one who raised me. I only found out about it after... being adopted. I wanted to meet her, and... when I located her, it turned out that the Joker there already, making threats. I went in to help her, to save her... and the Joker ambushed me.

[The telling is sparse, certain details omitted. Even after everything, there's a part of him that wants to protect his mother.]

I haven't been the same since. There are things... wrong with my brain.

[theotherobin]

...Are you sure you're me, dude? Cause that sounds like a whole lotta shit that doesn't have anything to do with my life.

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

...you ever meet the redheaded Jason Todd?

[theotherobin]

Now you're just fucking with me.

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

Hand to my heart, he's real! There's a couple worlds where the second Robin is a redheaded kid named Jason Todd. I have no idea why we have the same name and the same role but are such different people.

[theotherobin]

I mean, not that red heads are a bad thing... I fucking love 'em. But it's still weird.

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

Yeah, I... definitely hear you on that... [Jay murmurs, thinking on one redhead in particular. And not his alternate.]

We have wandered far afield of the original topic.

[theotherobin]

[ wow, so they have red heads in common. that's hardly a lot of things. ]

I never got adopted, though.

[ that part still stands out. it bothers him a lot, actually. ]

Uh huh. Would you fuck your clone?

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

It apparently took forever for Dick to get adopted. Like, I guess B was worried it'd look like he was trying to replace Dick's parents? [Jay shrugs after offering up that tidbit.]

Uh, depends on what "fucking" entails. Cos, like, I've been with few girls but I haven't done much with guys.

[theotherobin]

But you said something about a birth mother. Wait... you meant Bruce adopted you?

Do you wanna fuck a guy?

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

My dad, Willis, cheated on his wife, Cat, and I'm the result of that. But they both raised me as theirs and never told me about my birth mother.

I only found out the truth after they both died. After I'd been adopted by Bruce.

[He's getting better at condensing things down. He used to ramble endlessly when telling stories... At that second question, Jay shrugs.]

I'm interested but kind of intimidated by the idea? If I actually was gonna fuck my clone, it'd probably be... I dunno, trading awkward handjobs? [He gives a dismissive, snorted laugh directed at himself.] Not exactly something to brag about, y'know?

[theotherobin]

Well that's not me. No fucking way.

[last thing he needs is another mess. another person to think he's a fucking mistake. jesus christ. he also can't imagine Bruce would ever want to adopt him, and that part just makes him jealous.]

Yeah, I'm not that much of a loser.

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

[Jay just looks confused by that comment.] Exactly what did I say that makes me a loser?

[How he responds is going to depend on what part brought down his alternate's disdain.]

[theotherobin]

[no part of it really makes this older Jason a loser, but this little fuckhead is upset about things now.]

First of all, all of it. Second of all, awkward handjobs?

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

[Jay shrugs.] I might be attracted to men, but I haven't gotten intimate with a guy before.

[Rushed alleyway blowjobs to make money so you don't starve... they don't count. He does not say this part out loud. It is too shameful to share.]

And if my clone is brand new... [He pauses, sighs.] Dawn says I take these hypothetical situations too seriously.

[theotherobin]

It would be your clone, though. Not just some rando.

Yeah I mean, clearly what I said about it was just a fucking joke. Or a commentary on how shit in my life goes.

Your life isn't mine.

[reformedzombiecrimelord]

All right.

[Moment of silence, and then...]

...Did something particularly shit happen to you lately? Our lives aren't the same, and I get that, but I don't mind listening if you need to vent on shit.

[theotherobin]

I don't vent. There's no reason for it. The worst fucking thing in the world is to unload your bullshit on someone.
