Whispers in the Dark

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

We haven't done this type of sharing in awhile so I think it's time to do that now.

So, tell me a secret, Fandom. Tell me something no one else knows. Tell me something you haven't said out loud to anyone yet. If you don't have any secrets, tell me something you wish would happen to you, whether it be realistic or not.

Not only am I a clone, but I hate that it turns out that I'm not a real person.

[stupid-toasters.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow. That's...frakking sad. Sorry, dude. You're real to us? Not helpful, I know.

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

I appreciate the effort.

The worst part is that I knew I was a clone for five years. Then I was tricked into thinking I was real and the other guy was the clone. I don't know if it was worse to think that I had my life stolen from me that first time or to actually have my life stolen from me this time.

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

Ouch. That's...really a lot more than most of us went through. So. Ow. Good on you for soldiering on.

Um. Pie?

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

Thanks. What flavor?

Oh, and the guy who tricked me into thinking I was the real one? He killed me.

... I got better, obviously. But that's a whole different story.

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

Apple! All American and all that.

And...after hearing that, how about ten apple pies?

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

Thanks, but that's a little much for me. Do you mind if I only take two of those pies? The rest can be used for a charity bake sale or something.

[death-and-pies.livejournal.com]

Two pies and I'll send the rest to a bake sale, deal. Or I'll give them to Turtle and she can sell them and we can donate the money or something.

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

That works for me. Thank you.

[justice-beat.livejournal.com]

...pretty damn real as far as I'm concerned.

Just to throw that out there.

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's not the real part that I have a problem with. It's the person part.

[justice-beat.livejournal.com]

You seem to have that part down pretty well, too.

Unless my impression of what makes a person has been terribly wrong for a while now...

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

Real people don't disintegrate randomly. That's more of a clone thing. It's a small but important difference between the two.

[justice-beat.livejournal.com]

...I think that's more an issue of once you do disintegrate. Up until then, however...

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

I've done it once already. But I haven't mentioned that part to you yet.

[justice-beat.livejournal.com]

...so, you've disintegrated once, but been a person twice.

Basic mathematics, now.

[iguessiamaclone.livejournal.com]

That second part's up for debate. I've definitely been a clone twice. And definitely a fake person at least once.

And we find ourselves back at technicalities.
