    That's why I don't bother. I know Sar is the name of my character. I don't think I'll ever accidentally change it to "Sr" or "Saar" without noticing.

    So... I have a frightening mind? Well, everything's pretty much vapour up there a lot of the time. You know how most people (females, anyway) say that you always have to be thinking of something? Well... you don't. I can sit for over an hour just staring at the window (not out of; at) and thinking of nothing. It's really quite a blissful way to pass the time.

    What isn't so simple, then?

    Ah... Sar would... consider... that... a... moron... then...

    Different from how you are now. Environmental factors play a big part in our personality, but I like to think that our soul or mind or whatever is geared towards a certain way of thinking or taking things or learning in the first place.

    Yes, Pokemon has a huge impact on your life. Mine, too, but compared to yours, it's like a single atom in the infinity of the Universe. Since it is your life and everything...

    How do you know you're in America then?

    I just add the names to the dictionary. Except when I'm trying to correct something and hit the "Add to Dictionary" button by mistake...then you get wors like jsut and fnie as real words...

    You know it's true. The mind of a teenager is a frightening thing. My mind is mostly human, and if a human's mind is anything like mind, mind-reading would leave me very scared.

    I suppose. But it's not always so simple, yeah?

    You're not an idiot. You're just devoid of common sense. As Kij would say.

    You mean different from now, or different from humans in general?

    If Pokemon didn't exist, then there'd be no Pika in Brawl, since he's my best character ( I feel a sort of kinship, really), and I'd never have wasted hours on Yellow (even though I protest the poor pet-like treatment Pika gets in that game). Oh, and there's also that bit about me never being born. Or created, if you prefer.

    I've got a few general ideas for the short-term, but any long-term plans will have to wait until I'm confident with what I have to work with. And also know where the hell I am, exactly.

    Yeah, well that's what we have the "edit" button for. I just read it over and see what the computer calls typos, trying to ignore names and Aussie spelling.

    Ah, right. True, but perhaps a sort of psychic power that you can switch on and off and direct as you please. I also take mild offense at the teenager comment. Oh wait; no, it's gone. Rag out our generation as you please.

    *shrugs* Who knows? Just deal with it as they come.

    Yeah... true... I... am... an... idiot... (as Sar would say)

    I think... perhaps your basic soul/personality might be born as human, but because of the way different environmental factors, your way of thinking might be just a tad different.

    *shocked* It wasn't sarcasm! I would not have survived until now if Nintendo had not developed Gameboys! And if Pokemon didn't exist... well, actually, I'd probably be playing Yu-gi-oh cards instead, to tell you the truth. *shudders* Besides, I wouldn't be able to meet you, and that is a thought that just shouldn't be thunked. That's right. Thunked. Don't bother correcting me; I know already.

    Well... what will you do if you get out of the weird government lab/prison place you're in now?

    Rate and length. I post with what I can, but if my brain goes, oh, say, a minute or so with nothing more to add, I just hit the "reply" button; no regrets. Except typos.

    Are you kidding? There are plenty. First of all, would you want to look into the mind of a serail killer? Have you ever seen The Cell? It isn't pretty, and I'm fairly sure it would leave anyone without an exceptional mind scarred for life. Plus....teenagers.

    Maybe it indicates something about the person in particular?

    True, but you're the one continuing it.

    Yes. Yes they will. Another question; if I hadn't been born like this, you think I still would've been born, only as a human?

    Wait, is that...sarcasm? I can't tell. And...is it positive or negative?

    Oh, yes, I can see how that'd play out. The Jones & Jones firm gets their pants sued off by Nintendo, then words gets out about the incredibly lifelike animatronic Pikachu the firm's using...then someone will start to notice it's a little TOO lifelike...

    Hm? Are they erratic? Well, my one has lengths varying from five sentences to, oh, a page. What sized page, I have no idea, but a page nonetheless.

    Really? Why would you say that? I have my own reasons for thinking it would be a bad idea, but what are yours?

    Well, they're usually just minor differences, but sometimes, it's like a switch is pulled. Then... it's like I'm a totally different person. Perhaps it's just paranoia though.

    Wel... you... did... start... this...

    Well, humans will do anything to see what would happen.

    Well, it'd be a terrible waste if you didn't have any DS at all...

    It's strange; my English teacher likened the mind to a car. It was rather hilarious, actually, but I managed to keep a straight face in spite of the internal monologue. You could always take the job as some kind of mascot. Although I can't really see that happening any time soon.

    My imagination is selective; it only imagines things at certain, seemingly random times. Hence the erratic rate of my posts.

    Oh, no, no, no. No mind-reading. Very, very bad idea.

    I've never noticed that. I suppose I have a few minor differences in how I talk to people, but I would assume that's just a common thing.

    How should I know?

    Sentient tests? Well, I'm not exactly in a position to disbelieve that, but...odd use of taxpayer dollars, don't you think?

    Internet access, sounds nice. More than just that lousy Wi-Fi. And I have no idea where any of my GBA games are, or even if I still have them. But I'm saving that in case my DS goes kaput.

    Whoops. Haven't checked the OOC. Oh, and my classes start in a couple of weeks. More long-winded speechs about how I need an education. Goody. (I mean, what could I possibly use any of it for, anyway? I can't exactly go apply for a position at a law firm, now can I?)

    I can imagine. Trust me; I've got quite an imagination at unfortunate times.

    Wouldn't the world be a wonderful place if we had mind-reading powers? It's a nice dream.

    Oh, sometimes, but I make sure that I'm me when I come on the computer. Of course, there's always the philosophical side of me that sometimes comes out on comp, but that's just a minor one. It's strange; I change according to what environment I'm in/people I'm with.

    Why... of... course... why... would... I... stop...?

    Maybe the tests are fond of you?

    I haven't got one, and personally, I don't see the attraction so much. Besides, it doesn't even have a GBA slot. So I've heard.

    Didn't I say in the OOC thread? Holiday's over. I've been at that little place called school. The killer of social lives, whether it's irl or over the net.

    Yup. I like it, but peanut butter and fur do NOT mix well. Neither does jelly and fur, come to think of it.

    It still bugs me. Sorry. I need ESP...

    Wait, do you have multiple-personalities?

    Still at it, huh.

    I did, right? I can never remember. But, yeah, I was subjected to tests irl, and for whatever reason, the other me aced the other tests, too. Why, I don't know.

    Years of poor treatment. I'm not very good with my smaller stuff. It's probably a matter of months until my DS no longer works, too...but at least it'll give me an excuse to get a DSi, right?

    Yup, and I'll make my post shortly. Things are slow tonight...where you been, by the way?

    Ah, the famous PBJs.

    Well, if it helps, I'm sure it was just a fleeting thought that was about as important as a dust mote.

    Uh, no, not really. But I understand what you're saying, to an extent. Besides, when I switch personalities, I usually lose my memory. Whether that's a side-effect of multiple personality disorder or subconscious self-preservation, I don't know.

    Because... you... were...? I... think... so... at... any... rate...

    Didn't you say that your parents thought you were a genius and pressure you for school?

    Poor thing. What happened? My friend spilt orange juice on her SP, and it works fine except for a few problems to do with recharging the thing.

    Well, after a week or so, I've finally posted! Yay!

    It's wonderful on peanut butter sandwiches.

    I don't know. But now it;s gonna bug me.

    I know, but...the otehr "me" isn't entirely like me. IT's close, but there are still differences, and I can't take anything the other me says or thinks as accurate of "me." You know what I mean?

    So, do you remember why you started talking like that in the first place? (without looking!)

    No, the tests were here, in reality. Well, since that was the "Beginning" of my life, maybe it was beginner's luck?

    I HAD one, but it was busted beyond repair, so I....threw it out.

    I'm eating now, but I'll post as soon as I'm done, mmkay?

    Oh, strawberry jam? Love it. A bit too sweet when eaten by itself, though...

    Um... darn, I forgot. Uh... crap. What was I thinking when I worte that...? Dunno...

    Well... it's gotta be better than the judgement you gain from being around some professors that want to study you.

    Uh... no... not... really... remember... I... can't... quite... remember... what... I... type... or... anything...?

    Perhaps it dried up? Or perhaps there was luck shining on you that day. Or perhaps, if the test was conducted in the simulated memory bit, the professors wanted to think that their creation had supernatural brains?

    How can you not have a Gameboy Advance, though? What did you do before Nintendo DS?

    Really? Because I know that I can't get enough to post up and feel even marginally good about it with what Warden has given me. Although Sar would probably be happy that Paul didn't hear. Or as happy as she gets, anyway.

    Something like that, yes.

    But, what?

    That's all formulated, based on real-world elements. Even so, the people are all fake, so any character judgement I get from it isn't applicable, is it? Besides that, the people there are rather...simple. Country, if you know what that means. In other words, nothing like me. Either me.

    Well, wouldn't you know, since you write/typed it?

    That's possible, I suppose, though apparently there was more than one. If I managed to get that lucky on multiple IQ tests, what the hell happened to all that luck? Why am I still locked up? Why hasn't a series of walls leading outside collapsed yet?

    No, unfortunately, and due to some sort of complications, I can't get it working on an emulator, either. The image keeps crashing.

    Also, I'll probably post shortly, if you're still around.

    Is that like jam? I always forget what preserves are, for some reason.

    You keep saying that, but...

    What about in your "human" life?

    You... never... know... It... could... have... been... MY... today...

    No, you never mentioned that. Perhaps it was luck the first time round? Kaput. Love that; I just never usually have a chance to write it.

    You don't even have a Gameboy Advance? Or SP? Well, by now, the Silver probably can't save either... Oh, and I got up to Claire and was about to head into her gym when I accidentally dropped the Gameboy. Argh, still can't get over that!

    What about strawberry preserves?

    Yes, though I still look forward to talking with you.

    Most of the people around me aren't subtle at all with the way they feel about me. I can't exactly determine my judgement of character if everyone just out and tells me how they feel, can I?

    Which day? Yesterday when I posted that, or today when you replied to it?

    I did? Did I mention that I took another one a few years later and did awful? Though, truth be told, that's about the time my motivation went kaput...ha, kaput....funny word...

    I'm burned out on the trainer games, but the five-hundred-plus is what bugged me. This is Gen 2, so...also, I still have my Silver, but no way to check if it still works :(

    What can I say? I like jelly. Making sense is always a positive sign for metaphors. Although not making sense just means that it is a very deep and complex metaphor.

    Well, as long as you're having fun.

    That's true. But I like to consider myself an especially bad judge of character so I'm always a little cautious around new people.

    That's... the... question... of... the... day...

    You told me that very early on. Soon, we're going to go through the whole lagging business again.

    They sound interesting. Unfortunately my father refuses to buy too many games, and I'm waiting for Pokemon SoulSilver. I always loved the Johto region the best and lamented over the fact that they never remade it. But now they have! My Silver won't save because of that clock-draining-battery-thing problem, but I've been playing it non-stop to refresh my memory of how it went. That's what I do in my room, locked up and supposedly working.
