Second Chance Meme!

Okay, rocks fell, everyone died. Too bad, valiant meatshippers! But the good news is that you've all be reincarnated!

...as baseline humans on modern Earth.

Maybe you're waiting at a coffee shop, and you spot someone out of the corner of your eye that looks strangely familiar. Maybe instead of strangers from universes far apart, you and your close CR are now childhood friends who have always been together. Maybe you meet a former enemy as a friend, or a former friend is now a bitter enemy.

Are you a college student? A high-powered lawyer? A kindhearted schoolteacher?

What would your life have been like had you been born under different circumstances, and you met your fellow crew once again? If you had a second chance? Would you still fall into the same habits, be a victim of the same misfortunes? or would you use the opportunity to be someone completely different?

1. Post with your character, or tag someone else.
2. Set up the scenario you want to explore!
3. ???
4. Meme!

She looked up and did not smile; that line was really too overused to earn one.

"I'm trying to decide how to make a fifteen-year-old computer program run on modern equipment, without having to rewrite it three times over," she said dryly. "A simple front-end emulation won't be robust enough for a student environment." Because the little hackers would be too tempted to mess around.

At the same time she quickly went over her setup in her mind. Her computer power cord was wrapped several times around the table leg, her phone was in her inside pocket, her primary wallet was in her other inside pocket, and her free cash was in her coat at her side. She'd been in too many cafes like this not to be wary.
