Arrogant, smug, intense, moody, vengeful, cruel, selfish.
Self-assured, confident, focused, sensitive, tough, ambitious.
Who is this persona? From where did he emerge? And why was someone completely different in his place a year ago?
So mutable. So ephemeral. If the measure of truth is permanence then this self is untrue.

Cue Final Fantasy X OST.
All the news in the world, all the movies and plays and comics and books… not just the fiction section, but even the how-tos and the get-rich books… even philosophy and cookbooks…
They’re shared stories. They’re thoughtforms that have replicated and disseminated throughout the mental network. That’s why fame is so alluring — everyone knows your story. Everyone wants to tell their story. That’s why the true listener is so attractive; they are so rare.
That’s why the hypersigil works, you see. Even if it’s coded information, bits and pieces of your story spread throughout the network, concretizing it, manifesting it, so mote it be. Astral space is informational space; both spaces are more conceptual than perceptual in nature.
What does it mean to be invisible, then? To wipe out the telltale mark of ‘you’, the ego that pretends to be all of you? What if you could write anything into the story of reality itself, from the outside? What if instead of branding it with sigils and the fires of gnosis, if instead one discovered a way to weave into the story of everything whatever plots or persons or locations one wished? What kind of magic would that be?
This is my story.
