So, I'm considering cloning myself.

[identity profile] keepersouha.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 08:04 am (UTC)(link)
... ... Why?

[identity profile] keepersouha.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
... Isn't cloning usually... Bad? At least in overdoing and abuse.

Only in cheesy Sci-Fi movies.

... But I've never seen any of those.

Then you should, I collect them for the "Lulz".

... I don't know if I should be allowed near them, I might make them explode.

[identity profile] keepersouha.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 11:00 am (UTC)(link)
Doubly so why I should not be allowed near them, you know.

I'd enjoy your company, though.

[identity profile] keepersouha.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 11:21 am (UTC)(link)
... ... I guess I could try, then. If you'd seriously like my company, that is.

[identity profile] keepersouha.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 11:55 am (UTC)(link)
... Then I'll try.

... I don't know why you're doing that but I feel like I'd be well justified to at least burn you if you touch me, now.

It's a quote.

It seemed appropriate.

I think my feeling that I'd be justified now is accurate.

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Aw, don't be like that.

I'm just playing around.

[identity profile] bibeakerbabe.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I personally think it's charming.

[identity profile] bibeakerbabe.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 12:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps we should dance to it ~?

[identity profile] bibeakerbabe.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 12:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Now I hope those "Dance in 3 Easy Step" audio cassettes work...

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 08:33 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... There might be some potential in that.

[identity profile] bibeakerbabe.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
... I'd of thought you'd object the most, dear.

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 08:43 am (UTC)(link)
Well, while there's certainly a desire to have several of you around at once, I think it'd be ultimately a bad idea to do so.

That said, I've been thinking about ways to keep you and the other girls alive, despite the fact you're in harms way quite often.

My first and most secure idea seems to be a bit too "Outer Limits", but I think I have another idea which would be relatively acceptable on both sides.

[identity profile] bibeakerbabe.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 09:34 am (UTC)(link)
... Do I honestly want to know?

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 09:43 am (UTC)(link)
...what? I liked this latest idea.

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 10:02 am (UTC)(link)
Anyway, I've already developed a large portion of the technology for other tasks, the main problem would be producing a new body, which is where your cloning would come in.

Of course, there are still issues with things like muscle tone that would be lost, but the key feature should work.

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 10:56 am (UTC)(link)
...what? You seem hesitant.

[identity profile] bibeakerbabe.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 11:20 am (UTC)(link)
Something comes off as do not want, for some reason.

It's pretty simple, really. I'd use a mind scanner to map your neural connections while you're asleep, effectively 'saving' your 'progress'. It's mapped to a network like those in Kurochi and Shinoko. Should you die, that copy would be copied to the brain of a clone held in stasis, as well as attaching your soul to your new body via the tether, and you'd be revived.

If you wanted a step farther, we could probably install a device in your skull to give an 'impression' of what's happened since your last 'save'. It'd probably be hazy though, like a dream, but it shouldn't overwrite anything, and would be a lot safer.

Of course, it'd take months to grow a proper and stable clone, but even then you'd be more or less safe... you'd just stay in the copy until the new body was ready.

...

Sweet, but brrr. Something makes me shiver about that, despite the logic and sweet intentions, my darling dearest.

Re: [Private to Vidya]

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 11:57 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm... is it the fact that a copy of you is being stored somewhere?

My initial idea didn't really require a copy like that... but then you'd need to remote pilot your body, which seemed a lot more troubling.

Re: [Private to Vidya]

[identity profile] bibeakerbabe.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 12:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Possibly. And the whole process mechanicalized.

... That just gives me horror feelings. Major brrr.

Re: [Private to Vidya]

[identity profile] pureplainpatron.livejournal.com 2010-02-13 12:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's not so much mechanical as magitech.

Hence why I didn't look into it too much.
