Surprisingly, it’s been 1.5 years since this was last asked.
I pick Peregrine Falcon. They thrive all across the globe, they’re fast as fuck when they’re in a dive, they’re the cutest killers, but they’re not at the top of the pecking order, which means a lust for life.
I’d love a chance to be reborn as myself and I promise this time I won’t fuck it up.
Mr Cumfart I rarely expect your comments to be so relatable
Dont make promises that you cant keep.
I’m pretty sure that’s what you said last time.
A lesbian couple’s cat. Do you really need an explanation?
I’ve already been reincarnated as a wind turbine. I wasnt sure how to feel about it at first, but now I’m a big fan.
Hmm, I dunno. Everything blows when you’re a wind turbine.
Jellyfish. Nothing to worry about. Just floating around. Get eaten? No sweat, you don’t even have a brain. It’s be pretty boring, but what do you care? You don’t have a brain.
Alternately, the blue jays always seem to be having a good time.
+1 for blue jay, they are auspicious.
Especially Vladdy
You can also be relatively immortal
Not that I’d notice, since I’d have no ability to conceptualize time. Jellyfish are truly the apex of evolution
Housecat please. I think I’ve really upped my goodness in this life and can hopefully have a calm, warm, cozy environment to exist in next time.
Would I be limited to life on this planet? I wouldn’t mind having a go as some alien lifeform on some distant planet.
I don’t think the rest of the universe is that willing to see us spread around, as they’re watching us destroy the single planet we have access to. Human species is considered a bit too dangerous for the health of the rest of the universe.
Just imagining an alien studying a beetle analog and wondering why it’s killing everything within a meter of it and planting only one type of crop that it just uses to stand on.
Nothing. I suffered for a lifetime as the dominant species on the planet.
Leave me in the void, please.
You’ll evntually get called out for jury duty, sorry.
Perhaps the void could still bear life?
A little dog. Then a beautiful Fräulein would buy me and love me and cuddle me for the rest of my life. No need for wedding rings or divorce lawyers; just good food everyday and treats in between. What more could you want.
Seconding puppy dog :3. Free snacks if I do tricks, naps whenever I want, and a warm house to stay in for free? Sounds like a sweet deal
Monkey’s finger curls
You have just been born in a puppy mill. It’s overcrowded, there’s shit everywhere, and a lot of the dogs you’re crammed in with are diseased. Your mother tries to look at you, but her eyes are stuck closed with conjunctivitis. You try to suck on her nipples but there’s so little milk. You cough.
D:
Humans don’t treat animals well enough.
Cute rich girl with a tragic backstory I guess
I think being an ant or some other kind of eusocial insect would be interesting. Not the most peaceful existence out there, but definitely an interesting one.
I would like to be reincarnated as a Sag A* size black hole centered right in DC because, well, everything
In order
The other sex A different race A dachshund
Capybara would be legit. Chill with everyone. Just eat and swim all day.
cat
Easy: House cat.
One of the well-looked-after, non-abused ones, naturally.
I already know about the monkey’s paw curses for that.
You have the constant recurrent belief that your owners are not pampering you at all times on purpose. And that they’re basically stupid big kittens who meow all the time and are terrible hunters. And that they control the rain but won’t turn it off for you. And also I don’t like this brand of food any more.
And hairballs.
I suppose it’s time I had another nap.
… but I think I can live with all that.
