I'm so spoiled by writing for fantasy and science fiction fandoms. How are you supposed to give a character amnesia in a universe without magic or technobabble?

#you can pretend it's by just hitting them over the head but that's bad science #and i can only stand bad science when it's 400 years in the future in outer space #i mean concussions do give memory problems but you know I want that real specific forgotten years of memories #then remembers it all in the end #and typically the things that cause retrograde amnesia in real life are not cured with true love's kiss #and i don't want to write about someone recovering from tbi unless that's what i'm writing about
