How does one go the best about forcing an echo?

And, relatedly, is there a way to control what exactly is echoed?

[She knows that she is threading dangerous waters here, but she also needs a very specific thing that she knows her former self possessed.]

[Also, action option: Blaine will be visiting Chloe's farm around noon, poking around the area to find the shorter female. She wears normal, non-descriptive, though not quite her usual clothes (well, the thick brown jacket is normal, but the white pants and knee-high boots are definitely not something that she's been around town in before), and has a fairly large bag over her shoulder. Whoever might be there for whatever reason: Feel free to run into her!]

oh!
i think im pretty far in i guess!
i still dont know a lot about aradia
but i know a fair amount
there are people much further along than me i think
i feel comfortable with my current standpoint although more context for pretty much every memory i have would be swell

You've only gotten memories?

oh hardly
ive got powers items and physical mutations to boot

So aren't you worried about echoes that would render you unable to go out?

[She actually wants to understand here why so few people seem to worry about echoing the wrong things.]

somewhat
i already know i can either become a robot or a grey skinned horned alien
neither of which will let me out of doors

You could invest in good make-up and a hat.

the idea of full body makeup or the amount i would need to do that frankly scares me
although my cosplaying sister would prob tell me that its easy mode

See, you'd have help.

[This comes with a delay as she had to google cosplay first, and then it took her a bit to fully understand the implications.]

yeah i suppose!
i mean after she got over the holy crap aria youre an alien part

So are you?

An alien, that is.

not yet
but i could become one
or a robot
or a ghost i guess

You didn't mention the ghost before.

to be honest i am starting to lose track
i guess i was an alien
and then i was a ghost
and then i was a robot???

So you were an alien who died and then the soul was captured and trapped inside a machine.

Easy.

i am pretty sure i possessed the robot of my own free will as it happens
presumably because having a body is preferable to not

Or that.

In the end you died for good, either way.

haha yeah thats one thing that the whole reincarnation theory dictates as factual always

One has to wonder the how many-th time this was.

you mean to imply we have been being reincarnated for longer than just this particular cycle

The thought isn't weirder than thinking that we were reincarnated to start with.

oh im not saying youre wrong
i was just making sure i had it straight what you were saying
if so perhaps i am remembering more than one lifetime
thus the oddness of so many forms

You could become one first and then the next, again.

that sounds like a headache tbh

Only if you think too much about it.

[Too close to home, in a way]

i think i will stop thinking about it immediately for just that reason
