Does anyone know of any way to erase specific memories?

Have you considered not being a coward?

[Technically, yes, but, uh. Doesn't work for humans.]

Why?

[gentle_jim]

Easy peasy. Just involves a bit of invasive brain surgery!

[hashtagparkerluck]

No. But, as much I know the appeal there-you can't. It's not the healthy way to deal with thing.

[achickenformylove]

Unfortunately, no. I do not believe there is a way.

Not a clue, didn't even know how to in the place I was before the train kidnapped me. If you find out, let me know.

[He's got quite a few he'd do away with from Hakagemachi, like watching a boy die over and over.]

[xue_yang]

I could cut them out of you.

[Is he being an ass? Yes. Does he care? No.]

Kids grow up so fast these days... Jin Ling, what are you this desperate to forget? Distractions are better, focus on other things, keep active, invent a few new things to drive other people up a wall, plan out an elaborate or simple prank, ask for a bedtime story, see if Lan Zhan will let you pet his rabbits, try feeding the Deku Baba with me, there's a whole limitless number of things to do in order not to sit on painful memories!

( A pause... a long pause, because he's reflecting on Yanli. )

Or you can talk about the memories that bother you, maybe with, ah. I assume Jiang Cheng you'd feel closest to? I'd listen, if you want to talk! ( He doesn't pretend he'll have answers, but he can listen to him, not a problem. ) Also I'm going to tell Xue Yang to shut up so please, one moment, ignore me—

[Oh boy...]

Erasing them serves no purpose. They have changed you whether you realize it or not.

I understand that burden.

[morganizedchaos]

Depends on how specific you're talking.

[This person responding isn't using his mouth, but a human voice is still coming from somewhere on the other end of the video. Also, he looks really uncomfortable with the subject, the kind of uncomfortable that's hiding it under a smile.]

But that process would have required a place to erase back to to be set up in the first place, and I feel like I can say with certainty that that's not an option available to you.

[And then, more quietly, but also a lot more sincerely:]

It doesn't actually help. The actions, and other people's memories of them, will still be there. Removing memories doesn't fix anything in the long term, it just makes more problems.

[zombiemessiah]

Welp, there's good old-fashioned traumatic repression. But it's not one I'd recommend.

There's also drinking, but that one's theoretically not great either.

[He wonders if he should offer his talents. Ehhhhh he kind of wants to make sure no one's going to just shoot him first. Yes, he'll come back, but dying isn't fun. Still, though...]

Ever heard of hypnosis?... Wait, what do you even need to forget?

[Dennis doesn't know anything about that, but-]

Why'd you wanna do that? What if you lose the wrong memories?
