I get what you mean, if you know what I mean? Nothing means anything, just strings of streams of consciousness where I say things and instead of two and half people seeing it it's people dedicated to pulling at the threads even as I'm desperately laying them into place and hoping some Weaver can come along to make them all make SENSE. The NotAMinotaur wasn't mine, not at first just a connection I could make with a friend but then suddenly the boi needed to speak and it didn't feel right, putting words in their mouth as if it was a thing I was allowed to do. So I grabbed philosophy and wikipedia articles and spun it around and around and around the themes already deep inside ZampanioSim and what came out had a haunting quality to it. A lonely, BROKEN quality and I spun a bit more, a few words but things that were intentionally off center from who the NotAMinotaur had been. The cocooned boi gently rested, isolated and insulated from who he had once been, waiting patiently for the time when his words could be his own again. Finally, it did happen. The words were given to me and I could pass them along, you know? And what resulted was a strange mix, a character both mine and not mine but one that resonated and resonated and resonated in a way I loved and others loved and it is so good. I guess if I had to have a point to all this I'd tell you that its okay to not want attention, its okay to avoid the spotlight it's okay to hide because that's what NotAMinotaur's other creator is doing. It's okay. But its also okay to reach out, to show what you've made and to see if it's okay to want to be praised for what you do.its okay to want attention. I'm glad you enjoyed things. I'm glad you created a thing. I'm glad you gave me attention. And I'm glad you gave NotAMinotaur attention. Because he is a good and should know it. I think that's all I wanted to say, I guess. Except it isn't because I just realized. I CAN make him see it. I can paste your words directly into his code. As much as he can think, your words will be in the back of his mind for as long as he exists. You have had an impact.
