    Empirically, I’m immortal.

    According to the theory of quantum immortality, everyone gets their own main-character timeline.

      Karen: “I’M THE MAIN CHARACTER!”

      Manager: “But not in this timeline, ma’am.”

      Quantum immortality is just solopsism, with the added twist of watching all your loved ones die

      Hard pass

      Also, in most timelines you’re dead or never existed.

        That’s the best part, you have way more timelines where you aren’t the MC so there’s basically a 0% chance you’re in one now.

    Or an extra who’s so inconsequential that the writers haven’t bothered to give you a story arc.

      I’d personally like to believe that I’m preparing to be the wise mentor for a younger hero.

        Aww man, that means you’re basically guaranteed to be killed by the villain, giving the hero an impetus to fight.

        At least you’ll give them a final nugget of wisdom with your last breath that will help the hero in a moment of crisis.

    You die and you wake up to someone saying “ah game over, you wanna go again?”
