The path of self-discovery, as I've found, is enlightening. To know what, but not whom, one is, can become the most enlightening journey of one's life. Particularly as this is my first.

To know what, but whom, one is, can become the most enlightening journey of one's life. Particularly as this is my first. Though if you would happen to know who I am..." Subversion shook her head. "I'm afraid I don't. I could make you an identity, if you want."

Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him Posted January 7, 2023 Posted January 7, 2023 4 minutes ago, UnfortunatelyNamed said: "Hm." Subversion moved one of her own pieces carefully. "Perhaps I will. Do your plans for Spook require my assistance? I'd be more than happy to help." She smiled faintly. "I think Mythos plans to kill me, currently." "Hmm... well, Mythos can be dealt with." Thaidakar made a move. "I would like you to be allies with Spook or whatever heir I have once I give them full control."
NameIess Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 1 hour ago, The Halcyon Girl said: "I'd rather build one on my own. Thank you, though. That's very generous." "If you're sure. I did wonders with that old character of Nameless'. Poor thing was feeling quite down about himself before my help." 1 hour ago, Thaidakar the Ghostblood said: "Hmm... well, Mythos can be dealt with." Thaidakar made a move. "I would like you to be allies with Spook or whatever heir I have once I give them full control." Subversion studied the board critically. "If I like whoever you pick, I'll ally with them. I'd be more than happy to ally with Spook, but I won't make a promise on an unknown factor."

NameIess Posted January 8, 2023 Posted January 8, 2023 46 minutes ago, The Halcyon Girl said: "Perhaps someday. Perhaps never. I am content as I am." "A pity. I could have made quite the twists with another Narrator's character." 26 minutes ago, Thaidakar the Ghostblood said: Thaidakar nodded, "that makes sense." Subversion nodded, making her move and standing up from the table. "Well then. This meeting with you has been productive. When you need me, feel free to call." She disappeared in a burst of smoke.

The Bookwyrm he/him Posted January 10, 2023 Posted January 10, 2023 Those words. Subversion's words grew inside Bookwyrm like a plague. The knowledge that his powers caused chaos and fear and death to innocent souls was too much. Why? What is it about the nature of a narrator to create such chaos? He thought. It's the way of the world, a voice told him. You cannot be blamed for the nature that permeates the fabric of the world. You are who you are. Forgive yourself. You could do that, another voice claimed. A voice that seemed to be cloaked with his own identity, but had an unfamiliar heart of darkness. We all know the truth, Bookwyrm. You were never different than any of them. In every way you claimed and acted to be better. But you're simply the same. A Narrator like any other. Accept it. He had retreated beyond the physical world, but the turmoil only grew within him. Character development in TLT is rare, but it does happen...sometimes...

Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 sock. It was Nameless' old sock that had become sentient.
NameIess Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Without the intervention of the fiddling Infinity Machine, it would have created a rebellion among the Narrator's laundry that would have destroyed TLT as we know it.
Edema Rue she/her Posted January 12, 2023 Posted January 12, 2023 Luckily, the fiddling Infinity Machine had a strong grudge against sentient socks, especially if they belonged to Narrators. You see...
