Point one: LJ, STOPgoddamn trying to restore my old drafts. If I WANTED to post the same thing twice over, I'd SAVE A COPY and REPOST IT, right? Thanks. *goes to hunt down the function to turn that off*

Point two: I may have mentioned it before, but this kind of thing scares me a little. "Otaku-kin" or WTFever it is they call themselves. There's people out there who believe they're somehow the reincarnate spirit of TV and game characters.

All I can say is that if someone came up to me going "OMG yeah I'm liek totally the reincarnate spirit of Ivy, u kno" I'd SLAP THEM SILLY. Outside of my head and my fiction, SHE AIN'T REAL. You can't be the reincarnated spirit of a FICTIONAL CHARACTER. Ditto on the species - no, Kiravai aren't real, I made them up, I cobbled together a lot of things I dug out of science journals and history books or just plain thought looked cool and BAM, there they were. There IS NO SPIRIT to reincarnate. There IS NO SPOON. I can cope with the otherkins, the furries, since although sure, a lot probably ARE fictional creatures, it's a totem, an allegory, a symbolic representation, for a lot of people. You might not be able to define it, but hey, it looks like a unicorn, so we'll call it that. But your INNER SEPHIROTH? Please.

Edit: Point three: Since when did "wanking" take on the new wholesome meaning of "blather on in pompously about a subject"? Bag of wank.

...I don't care if you were press-ganged into it, Iios, but playing God to "bribe the natives" is NOT the way to go.

I need to find a story to write collaboratory-style with someone, before I go mad. Although most days I hardly dare mention it. *sigh*
