I’d finally have a reliable coop gaming partner. Neither of us would squander that truly priceless gift.

Probably spend the first couple of days fucking and then figure out what happens next after that.

Nah, We would become buddies. We would pretend to be twins in public. We’d split the work, I’d go one week and he’d go the other. We’d play Soulcalibur and Tekken and since we’d both be equally bad it wouldn’t be frustrating.

nah, if it’s an exact copy of me why wouldn’t it just act like me?

I’d give him the keys, the passwords, and wish him good luck with my life. BUH BEYE!

Hopefully my clone murders me so he’s the one that has to go to work

So I’ve been thinking about this and I think it mostly depends on if my wife was also duplicated. If so, I could see the 4 of us living together and pooling resources. Possibly even working out some shenanigans to double dip or get out of some things. However, I can’t see my wife or myself being cool with an arrangement where a duplicate and I share my wife. I don’t know if I’d kill The other me over it but, I could see us coming to blows over it.

Nah I’m pretty chill so imagine clone me would also be chill.

I’m not sure I could kill someone truly unmistakably evil, let alone someone I can emphasize strongly with. If my duplicate gets that too, they aren’t killing me.

This post and the numerous replies affirming our clones wouldn’t try to kill us makes me wonder, what is the basis for this trope? Is it just the assumption that any doppelganger must be evil? I wonder what the cultural origins are, would it be European fae?

Anyway, I’m pretty sure my clone would still try to kill me, but it’d be doing so out of kindness. I’ve always wanted to die on my feet in combat, and I’ve never wanted to live, so we’d kinda be fighting over who gets the privilege of death. Whichever one of us wins has to keep going, while the other gets released.

Do we have the same personality? Because I don’t see why it would escalate to murder. I don’t like violence.

I think most likely is we’d take turns going to work, and one of us would always get to stay home and procrastinate on chores. For some people that probably wouldn’t work as the duplicate would point out they have no obligation to their original, but I have a million siblings so an obsession with fairness has been hard-coded into my brain. We would work the exact same amount of hours and split all our sweets perfectly evenly.

I think the big downside is that I’d probably have to stop going to the gym. Alternating days would effectively halve my progress, and I’m not buying twice as much protein power.

We’d get along fine, but feeding two people on one salary will definitely be annoying (my job has a non-competition clause where I can’t pick up a second job in the same field), and getting enough adhd meds for the both of us will be impossible due to strict regulations here.

One of us still could bring value to the household by being the designated bangmaid though

She and I would definitely be fucking tbh.

Other than that, finally, enough time in the day to work on hobbies. One clone works, the other hobbys, and alternate every now and again.
