Well crap. There's a name for this? Schizophrenia.

I've always made up stories centered around this one girl. She's had many names, currently it's Eira, and if I'm completely honest, she's based off what I want myself to be. She's strong, witty, and  I talk through her in my head to the other characters, when I'm alone. (I sound crazy, oh my god.)

I know Eira's not real, though, that none of the characters are real, but it's just so satisfying to live in so many other worlds. I don't blackout, I don't lose control, but I know it's not normal to pretend that you're interacting with fictional characters. I like the way you put it; I submerge myself in them.

I sometimes just admire how staggering it is that we can literally create infinite worlds, characters, in our own heads. We can control universes. As many as we can think of. And hell if I don't indulge myself in these creations.

At the moment, I'm writing Eira as a young Endezeichen Grimm who's devastated by all the horrible things she's done, all the blood on her hands. She meets and spares Monroe, and realises that there is redemption, even if she's done terrible things in the past. (I'm rambling too, darnit)

Goddamn, I'd love to hear more of your story. Continue, please, if you don't mind. This is amazing, this understanding that someone is making stories about their own characters, someone else is making worlds and I'm not alone.

Architect sounds like a dapper guy; I'd love to hear more about him.

I- I've never shared this much with anyone before. Look at me, spilling everything out in a stupid ramble. I'm sorry if I've weirded you out. I wouldn't blame you if you turned and ran as fast as you could from me; if I've crossed a line into crazy.

But heck, it feels fucking amazing to put all this in words and know someone's listening. Truly, truly, thank you.

P.S. Oh my god, I laughed so hard. RP (yes, role-play) means a collaborative writing, where you write one paragraph, then I continue, then you again, and we see where the story goes. But your idea sounds fantastic too:  ANNIE SMASH PUNY HITLER-WESEN INTO PULP!
