My protagonist in a second childhood novel will use his credit & debit card from his previous life. What happens later?

1 (Continued due to character limit)He also goes online to buy pepper spray (to deter pedophiles in his new, 3’10” body), and a 20-function Leatherman pocket knife, because he had one in his previous life so he thinks he needs one again.1. Now, when those packages arrive a few days later, with “TANAKA SHIMOYA” on the recipient’s address field on the packaging, how will his parents respond?2. When Tony’s twin brother, who lived with him, and obligated to open Tony’s mail while he’s incapacitated, suddenly sees a set of charges from New York, what does he do?3.

Moreover, when Tony’s body wakes up, unfortunately, he’s no longer Tony. You know who we’ll be. Tony was 20.At that point, who gets the legal authority to shut down Tony’s bank and credit card accounts, and pay for his debts?3a.

Or do the debts get forgiven under some special mental incapacitation clause?4. What happens about the illicit charges? What happens to Tanaka when all these illicit charges get traced back to him?(Original source: {Will be given after receiving some answers}) .

C'mon, Eng ...(1) People in Comas are ALIVE and their souls (if such a thing exists separate from brain chemistry) are intact. Their brains often still function.(2) Even if he died, how would he control where his soul went via death's unconsciousness and the unconsciousness of a coma?(3) Why would he have rights over a five-year-old and 'get his body? ' Seems to me a five year old would not give up their body for an immaterial spirit.(4) Wouldn't he also have the five-year-old's brain?

Does the brain/memory cells of the five year old get removed Isn't the brain a part of the body? So how would he remember his codes if his brain was back in a comotose body? (5) How would a five-year-old have access to codes and ordering things online?

Can the five-year-old type on a keyboard? Use a keypad? How would this knowledge get to the five-year-old's brain?(6) How could anyone have the "time of their life" in the body of a five-year-old?

(You might, from what you say about your age-play -- but it still isn't plausable that anyone else would). A five year old would be very controlled and restricted, especially if he started acting unnatural. My advice: Have your five-year-old get turned into a five year old some other way.

Your angel idea (one of your earlier ideas) wasn't bad - at one time you said you were writing a novel where a ten year old wanted to be a child forever and an angel granted his wish. There were wishes fulfilled and also drawbacks. A person's body is theirs.

The body, brain, mind, knowledge -- can be lost but go together and are part of a package URL1 may get transformed, soul transfer via cloning are possibilities, but not body snatching from living individuals.

3 One other caveat -- the mind and will of a comotose man would be much less than that of a bouyant, healrhy five-year-old. More likely someone would enter the comotose individual than he entering someone else.

EgaoNoGenki-Owari replied to post #3: 4 Well, Yellowdog, it's a switch. The soul of the comatose man gets reactivated upon waking up in someone else's body the following morning. I don't think this story will delve deep into how a brain manages to replace the memories of one person with the other, at least until he's evaluated by his new pediatric psychologist.

That'll be sometime after Chapter 1. The story starts at this prologue: bigyesbomb.com/2009/12/second-childhood-... you can start here if you wish: bigyesbomb.com/2009/12/second-childhood-... there's still an important question unanswered: When investigators eventually reach the Shimoya household to look into a suspected case of identity theft, how will they prosecute the 5-year-old? He doesn't go to Juvie, does he?

Also, what would the investigators do when Tanaka tells them that he was once Tony before the car accident, and the story around that? .

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
