So I’d give this AU!New York a full three stars. ⭐⭐⭐

It seems pretty accurate and I had been meaning to come back to visit. It’s missing a few of the best pieces though like my favorite coffee shop, everyone who lives here in my preferred universe, and also the ability to leave. You should probably fix that part because it seriously ruins the whole effect when the background loops. Have you watched animations like that? They're awful. Wraparound backgrounds may save time and effort but they’re lazy and they suck. Hanna-Barbera? More like Hanna-Barfera.

The ostriches are really great, though. I tacked on half a point just for them so you’re in solid "I’m already logged into Amazon so might as well" territory. But there’s still a lot of room for improvement. Unless this all turns out to be the inside of a giant snow globe again. That's not fun, it's not funny, and I’ll take it all back.

	Are there people here from your home? Do they have the same memories as you? That’s a really good way to test things out. It’s not a sure thing because some AUs are like fanfiction.net obvious but others can be more subtle. It’s a start, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some do, but most are from an earlier point in time. I don't recall any of them disappearing previously. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So we’re kind of like a replicate of ourselves? That’s ~~not promising for anyone noticing~~ good to know. How long have you been here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That is how it seems. One week as of tomorrow. (Reply to this) (Parent)

If you subscribe to infinite multiverse theory then it could just be creating a new timeline every time someone gets picked up. We didn't at home though, timelines only split if the changes were big enough. Going theory is that people just get put back with their memories wiped. The real way to test it is if someone died here, but that's impractical for obvious not-murdering-people reasons.

	Yes, not murdering people would be...impractical. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~You say that like you're slowly backing away trying not to make any sudden movements.~~ Obviously. If I was willing to do anything even half that bad my career would have been a hell of a lot more successful than "that guy who hardly ever follows through on any of his ideas".

	Transhumanism without ethics is just thinly veiled eugenics for the modern era. That's where Reed Richards went wrong. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	controlmyown 2019-08-21 12:22 am UTC (link)
	I have not heard of Reed Richards, but HYDRA killed many of my people through experiments. My brother and I were the only ones to survive and as such, I would rather not see this topic of conversation discussed so casually, particularly on a newcomer's post. Please reserve it for other, deeper discussions elsewhere, if it must be discussed at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I believe you. It would probably be really helpful, though, if you kept the murder talk to a minimum around most people because it’s like a huge social taboo. Especially when it revolves around human experimentation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nothing like an underworld that i can tell. i guess you could banish the ghosts but would they go to another universe or would their energy be released to take form elsewhere? it seems cruel to just do it without permission just to satisfy some curiosity. if they ask tho i suppose the courtesy could be provided but only if they ask.
