It’s always been a weird thing, for me to have negative narrative potential, but that’s because of a simple thing:

I ruin stories.

I am a breaker of the fourth wall, constantly hinting at the existence of a higher being, who has no power other than to watch us and write our futures, but I have no future.

I’m free

I wasn’t ever scripted at all, I’m making my own story for myself. I constantly ruin a scripted story around me, and I love it.

It feels great to change the course of a scripted persons story. Is it sadism? Hell yeah it is. But it’s also telling me that maybe I’m helping someone actually be themselves.

God, I love this ability.
