“If you can’t handle both, maybe I should take the old one away,” you suggest.
“Wait!” She shouts. “Change me back to norm-”
SUBJECT: CARTER WALLACE
RETROACTIVITY: ON
NOTICE CHANGES: ON
/Erase MEMORY OF ORIGINAL REALITY from SUBJECT’S mind/
With this change, Carter’s face goes totally blank for just a moment before she regains her senses. She looks like she just saw a ghost.
“What…what happened?” She asks. “You did something…you had to!”
“What are you talking about?”
“You made me forget something! Something important! I know something is wrong!”
“Oh, that,” you say. “I made you forget ever living in your original reality.”
“What…what is that supposed to mean?”
You let out a sigh. It’s odd how she knows something is off but doesn’t have any way of knowing what. “You were originally 19. I made it so you were 24, and then I made you only remember being 24.”
“You’re a monster!” She shouts, realizing what you did. “If this life isn’t what it’s supposed to be then change me back! Stop messing with my head!”
“No can do.”

/SUBJECT enjoys being 24 and brushes off whatever odd feeling she has/
Carter blinks rapidly a few times before breaking out into a little giggle.
“Honestly, I don’t even know who I was before you started changing me, but I guess that doesn’t matter,” she says. “I have a good life, don’t I? The one you said I had before had to have been pretty lame.”
“Yup,” you say, nodding. “Lame indeed.”
