[ A rather tidy scrawl appears. But it's unsteady at the same time, unsure. ]

What's so important about a name? People seem to get upset if you don't have one. I do not, but I have no need for one. My purpose has been served, and I am a mere doll. A doll doesn't get a real name, just a role.

Why are names so important? Why? Why is it not okay that I don't have one? I'm a doll. I don't need one. I don' even exist.

I'm not important.

Am I?

I am an artificial mage, yes.

[drammaturga]

I cannot even claim that.

I am a doll, given a Role in a Play. Nothing else.

But it's nice not being the only one.

[projectnamed]

I was supposed to be a continuation for my creator's daughter.

"I" should not exist.

[drammaturga]

I was a wish given form.

So someone could come back to life.

I should have disappeared when it was over, because the wish didn't have to be after that.

But I am here.

[vipassi]

And I was intended to be nothing more than a weapon.

We exist; there are many ideas that are latched on to as "what should exist" and "what should not exist" that are merely the product of assumptions being imposed on reality.

The reality is that we exist.

Telling anything that exists what it "should not" be or "should" be does little to change its existence.

And life is life, whether it's created via biological processes or other means.

I had all of my original's memories and physical traits...

It makes no sense that Mother's my creator's daughter is not speaking to you in my stead.

and if I had not been a failure, Mother and Lynith would be alive

[silver_lucifer]

Oh seven hells is there really another [Written and hastily scribbled out]

You do, and you're obviously a person that exists as well.

[projectnamed]

another? [ Written next to the scribbled area. ]


Yes, but that is not what Mother I was created to be.

There should be no Fate Testarossa, only Alicia Testarossa.

[doctorsleep]

Fate?

Remember what I told you: you're okay.

-Dan

[projectnamed]

[ Fate is going to take a... while to respond. She's trying to get her composure.

She didn't mean for Dan to see any of that. ]

sorry....

[doctorsleep]

[Oh Fate. His heart. Written carefully but very soon after:]

It's not like I'm mad at you. I just worry about you.

[silver_lucifer]

That doesn't change that you exist.
