i've been wondering recently, even more now with what was at that building cassius pointed us to, how many people here aren't from earth originally?

i've only mentioned this to a few people because, at first, i wasn't sure how safe it would be to have it be common knowledge. but since you can find it if you read back far enough i might as well say it: i'm an alien.

i'm originally from a planet called krypton. it's gone now and so home for me is earth in my universe. i look human on the outside, but my anatomy is pretty different on the inside, especially on a genetic level. knowing that, i've got so many questions about the people who brought us here and experimented on us, put the implants in our heads. especially if i'm not the only one like that. i'm probably not going to get answers to those questions any time soon, but if people are willing to share, i'd like to know how many of us aren't exactly like the humans here. how many of us may have been surprises when they opened us up.

exactly
and since they were still able to give me the implant and whatever is in our chests
(assuming that was placed there via a procedure and not magic)
it means they either had me long enough to study me
or they have experience with alternate biologies that, according to the public history of this world, they shouldn't have

It sounds like the people we went and got from that place out in the woods had been held there for a while. So maybe it was the same with the rest of us, and we just don't remember.

i don't doubt that
it's still unsettling

Yeah. I've had memories taken from me before, I didn't really want to go through that again.
