Was it part of his brain or did he just absorb Zach's memories from the life stream as well as Zach's fashion sense?

are memories not part of the brain? certainly they're close enough for a response to a shitpost

Oh, do we want to get into the epistemology of memories? I love doing that! Are memories a part of a brain? Do they physically reshape our brains to store them better? Is memory simply data that can be placed into any brain?

nodding thoughtfully. i think it isn't identity fraud if you have the other guys memories because you remember doing all that stuff and also aren't claiming to be the guy, just someone with mostly your own past who is very similar to him

Not just his memories. His sword as well.

Mmm. Yes, you've raised interesting and thought-provoking epistemological questions to critique the physicalist concept of memory connected to a simplistic positivist worldview. Very well done.

I was going to say that it's not really a fashion sense so much as a uniform but I don't know if all those gears, cogs, screws, and bangles and shit are standard issue thonk SOLDIERs seemed to have the freedom to use custom equipment the higher their rank was
