A theory?

I’m so confident in this, I’m not even going to call it hopium.

So, Pants has established that there’s a chance at reviving Dottore based on just memories alone without his soul. Ofcourse this comes with the consequence that it wouldn’t be the full Dottore, only Regrator’s perception of him. However if there are other sources of memories, these biases would be less obvious. Especially if they came from Dottore himself.

Genshin writes their stories years in advance. I know they said somewhere that Nodkrai was planned as far back as Sumeru. I bring this up because of Zandik’s notes scattered around the 3.x region; it’s plausible that they added these for the purpose of the reforming Dottore plot line now. The 4 star item from defeating him also adds to this as it hasn’t been done before for any other boss. Then, you have wanderer digging into his past and while it would be highly unlikely he would help directly, someone else could learn from that research and use it to build memoryttore. The only people I see that would be willing to help with this project is Regrator and the Traveller, given that they would have to have a motive.

When you look at all these fragments of lore of him, you notice one thing. None of it talks about his childhood village and I believe it’s intentional. We know he was chased out of his village and at a younger age. Assuming he’s speaking in chronological order in pale flame, it would have happened even before the akademia. Dottore’s segments mention that he lost empathy at the age of 8, meaning something caused it, and this pretty traumatic experience could be how. If the new version of him doesn’t remember this experience or being shunned from his first ‘home,’ it could be possible that he will manage to retain his empathy at least to the degree that he will be more palatable for the broader player base. Aka redeemed.

Now I know this isn’t the greatest news, it sounds like it would change a lot of his character, but it seems like the most likely path for the future of his story. Sorry if this is disorganized, I‘m just writing this on a whim. I also have some theories on what exactly caused him to get kicked out of his village but they’re very speculative and I don’t want to make this any longer lmao>!&#x200B;!<

Low effort self portrait

Art really is a good coping strat though, jokes aside. Just try not to think too hard about it being barely exaggerated.

Started test at 15 years old and 11 months, so basically 16. I know growth plates are the main thing that determines bone growth but what are my chances the ones in the ribcage haven't closed yet since some parts of the body stop growing later than others? If anyone has experienced this themselves, how early did you start and around how much did it increase?

I know that muscle and fat play a large role in overall torso size too, but this is more specifically about the bones that I'm wondering about. Thanks, any answers are appreciated

11.8in hip breadth while 5'3 with an 17.2in shoulder breadth for reference. Genuinely don't have a clue if they're extremely wide or just regular for a man. If I could trouble yall for one more thing, what about 12.375in? Increased to account for room for error, though that could be also be too big. Somewhere around 11.8~12.375 range. Half an inch can change a lot but it's the best I got without calipers. Feeling increasingly cooked rn

11.8 in hip breadth

17.2in shoulder breadth

9.5in chest/ribcage breadth

Oh, and I’m 5’3. Don’t worry I’m already a month on test and I’ve been working out, my measurements used to be worse (15.5 shoulder breadth at max), but Christ dysphoria has been eating me alive. I don’t have calipers either so the measurements could be frauded
