Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Tetradecimal: "Which is weirdest? (a) Thinking you're Nightcrawler. (b) Thinking you're Vaporeon. (c) Being unable to decide whether you're Nightcrawler or Vaporeon."
JKefka: "There's no existential crises quite like Otherkin existential crises."

There is no such thing as fiction. There is no such thing as imagination. Everthing's friggin' real. Everything's also one hell of an illusion. What that means, my dear reader, is that you, me, the chair you're sitting on, the chair I'm sitting on, are participants in one of the biggest fucking lies in the history of Time: Reality.
Elsa Bibat, "The Reality Manifesto"
Anything can be real. Every imaginable thing is happening somewhere along the dimensional axis. These things happen a billion times over with the exact same outcome and no one learns anything. Whatever a person can think, imagine, wish for, or believe has already come to pass. Dreams come true all the time, just not for the dreamers.
For everything in a dream is more deep and strong and sharp and real than is ever its pale imitation in the unreal life which is ours when we go about awake and clothed with our artificial selves in this vague and dull-tinted artificial world. When we die we shall slough off this cheap intellect, perhaps, and go abroad into Dreamland clothed in our real selves, and aggrandized and enriched by the command over the mysterious mental magician who is here not our slave, but only our guest.
Mark Twain, My Platonic Sweetheart
