There are some questions that I have been mulling over for quite some time now. As someone who has returned home once before and returned back to Prismatica with their memories in tact on multiple occasions (apparently some people return, only to be a blank slate), I've had the utmost displeasure of experiencing a harrowing bit of dissonance: My obligation to the world I grew up in, and the freedom I craved in such a liberating sandbox environment as Prismatica. The longer I allow myself to settle down here, the more reluctant I am to leave, and each subsequent ping-ponging back and forth (especially against my own will) leaves me with a heavier heart.
Seeing such a varying degree of opinions both on the network and in person, I've always been curious as to how people feel about their status as a "moonblessed" citizen and in turn, their unpredictable predicament.
If and when the day of reckoning and/or returning is upon us (and should the higher powers be so kind to provide us a choice at all), would you ever wish to return back to your own pocket of the universe? Or multiverse, if Prismatica is indeed set within a different universe altogether?
What would hold you back?
Or if there is nothing holding you back:
what would you take back with you (memories, tangible items, people, etc)?
Or! Bonus question:
In an ideal situation, (let's just throw all propriety to the wind here for a moment) how would you like things to be? This one might be a tricky one. I think this could also easily tie in to the second question, for reasons I assume I don't have to spell out.

Here, at least, she's had the decency to get multiple hard drives. And backups for quite a few of them.]
Multiple drives. It's useful to keep backups.
There's also a lot of instances of humanity having to relearn things it once new because they were intentionally destroyed.
it's all good!
Oh, that is a problem isn't it?
How do you go about recovering something like that?

...or she'd have to put together magic to let her assemble those herself -- which is doable, to be fair, but pretty complicated.]
I don't have a good answer besides 'dumb luck.' Have to happen to come across copies held in personal collections and you can gain access to them somehow.
Understandably, the further back you go, the less likely you are to even have a chance to find those.

Why do you do this job?
