I love knowing that my closest allies are thinking about nonsense instead of anything of value. I'm not any better but I'm allowed to let my mind wander. Fluff in the narration isn't always a bad thing and sometimes people should know about the ways in which my mind works. I'm the one writing this shit so it holds some weight.
==> Are they thinking about nonsense, or are you narratively keeping them dumb to support your own goals?
I don't doubt that it's both. They're a lot more tolerable when they put up less of a fight, especially Jake. He thinks he knows everything in the fucking world and acts like he's found some magical self worth after a day or two of being away from me. Either way, what I'm doing will be good for all of them. Keeping them mush-brained might just be the easiest way to achieve it, even if it's infuriating to read another post about how everyone is so happy and hunky-dory and #yearning for some #pizza #lol #random #fuckingridiculous.
==> I don't know about that. Rose really values her faculties of thought. If she were to find out about this somehow, it wouldn't end very well for you.
I can always make her forgive me if this gets her panties in a twist. She's not one for stalking my page anyways.
==> She is Lightbound, Dirk. She won't forgive being lied to like that. You forget, she is Ultimate as well. Who's to say, in her anger, she takes the narrative from before you make her forgive you? Wouldn't it be better to just let it play out naturally, rather than control it so tightly?
I will figure it out. I always figure it out. There isn't a single situation I can't get myself out of. I have faith that she won't take it so harshly. And if I don't control things then everything will go fucking sideways and I'll have to fix it all over again. I've had just about enough of cleaning up the universe's messes. Why not use the power I have instead of letting it go to waste?
