so here's the concept: Humans have 9 lives, like cats. The way it works is that when you would have "died", a life is used up to rewind time and alter the situation into a near-miss, right? So when you think you "almost died", you actually did, you just burnt a life to survive it.
Given that idea, what life are you on?
Which life are you on?
First life! I've never gotten close to dying
Second life (not the online metaverse thing)
Third life
Fourth life
Fifth life
Sixth life
Seventh life
Eighth life
Ninth life (uh-oh)
BEYOND: I have nearly died more than 9 times, I am clearly immortal
For example, I've been shot, died of medical reasons (3 times), car crashes (twice), and remade myself so thoroughly that I'm no longer meaningfully the same person I was before (twice).
Making me on my 9th life.
Safe estimate of fourth
Pneumonia twice as a child, and unexplained fevers that wouldn't go down where once I fainted as a wee babóg. Possibly 5th if we include that time I wandered off alone, drunk, in Australia.
