Right, so. Let me see if I understand everything here.

My life, my entire being was nothing more than someone's cooked up, crack pipe idea. That who I am and everything else about me wasn't real, but now I'm real. Like the damned puppet from that story. Could never really stand it, even as a kid.

Heh, great. Really that's just fucking great. I don't have to worry about anything more, right? That's supposed to be the beauty in having this 'clean slate' here, ain't it?

You know what, don't answer that. Just leave me the hell alone.

well you should probably worry about spontaneously becoming a pirate or a superhero or a zombie
but even then its more inconvenient rather than terrible most of the time

[cloneororiginal]

And here I thought people paid attention. [Muttered under her breath.]

This place can do that, eh? Believe it when I see it.

[maiditoutalive]

i thought it was obvious that i was ignoring that
it would be weird to make a public post just to talk to yourself

and you dont have to believe me
you will probably find out for yourself sometime in the next...two weeks i think
i could jump ahead and look but that would spoil the surprise

[cloneororiginal]

The doctors handed me the bloody device, rather I throw it against the wall? [There's a lot of sarcasm in her voice, but really she has no idea what she's doing with it.]

What are you talking about?

[sasstastic]

Does your life feel fake to you?

[cloneororiginal]

Dunno. My life's shit storm at the moment, well was. But if it wasn't real...

Don't have much to worry about then.

[sasstastic]

Think about it. Falling off your bike when you were a kid and getting scrapes all over, your first kiss, first fight. Does it feel made up?

[badnewsboy]

Oh, as you go through such motions in your crisis to accept the current situation, do beware of the maned beast that seems to have found its way on a particular journey that happens to be fairly close to our current civilization.

We really do need a "beware of lion" sign.

[cloneororiginal]

You're joking right? A lion....on an island. [She's heard of 'snakes on a plane,' but...a lion?]

What kind of place is this?

[badnewsboy]

That is better answered with experience rather than words.

A fun place! A party place! A place with friends! A place that tests the boundaries of existentialism! Sometimes it's even a place with pirates and ye old speak! For now it's a place with a lion.

You know, I really don't think anybody actually believes what they tell us at the hospital, though we know something weird is going on.

It would make sense to me that we all come from alternate realities - each equally real, just different. I've been to some before, though never sucked in and trapped quite like this. They should be staying separate, but obviously the walls are breaking down again.

Problem is, there's just no proof for any of it - we're trapped on this island, and people randomly appear and disappear without reason or warning.

[cloneororiginal]

Sounds like we're nothin' more than lab rats in a giant maze. Test subjects. [There's a bitter and angry undertone to her voice. But there's another Brit here, wonderful.]

You sound like that other guy, the Doctor. You two relatives or somethin'?

[icanbuyafez]

It's a possibility. [The Doctor doesn't speak any more about it, because it's still a sore point for him - his helplessness here, and everyone who has left the island who he could save. It didn't help that he didn't even know whether or not they even needed saving.

He cheers up immensely at the change of topic.] Oh, so you've already met me! Well, past me. Well... past me separated from the timeline I remember.

I should really find a better way to refer to me. Him.

[... for some reason, this post reminds him way too much of Conner. So Dick just. Will slide over here.]

Do you like to take some of that energy out by working out or something? The gym's pretty nicely stocked.

[See? That's almost like leaving her alone. Kinda.]

[cloneororiginal]

The gym? Right.. I'll pass on that. [There's a lot of sarcasm in her voice.]

[peckish4action]

Right. Got it.

What do you do to wind down, then?

[hawkingbird]

I like my personal explanation of alternate universes converging on this island, myself.

[cloneororiginal]

Yeah? But what's the point?

[hawkingbird]

Now that's a question I have yet to answer.

[totesadorbz]

There's nothing to worry abt!!!!! I've only had totes kewl things happen 2 me, like getting tons of BUNNIES to play with, or turning into DRAGONZZZ. Like ok one time my bf turned into a supervillain and that wasn't kewlio but he wasn't my bf at the time anyway.

YOLO AMIRITE?!?!?!

[cloneororiginal]

....what? [What in the hell is this person on?]

[totesadorbz]

TOTES KEWLIO THINGS HAPPEN AAAAAALL THE TIME, its totes way more interesting than home lolololz.

[easy_a]

You realize no one's going to "leave you the hell alone" after you went and said all that, right?

[cloneororiginal]

It's called venting, ever heard of it? [Sarcasm, loads of it.]

[easy_a]

Then maybe you aught to vent to a video diary or some shit, not the entire network.

[Translated: You're an idiot and a bitch.]

For the record, next time to decide to "vent" to everyone on the fucking island, keep your snide comments you want to make to Lydia to yourself.

[She might be a crazy annoying cat-lady/room-mate, but she's Alisha's crazy annoying cat-lady/room-mate. As far as Alisha's concerned, she herself is the only one entitled to show Lydia boundless sarcasm and judgement.]
