"So please do your best to acclimate yourself to this reality as quickly as possible." Okay, look. This is all well and good for…whatever it is they're trying to do, but I really, really don't have time for this. [It's okay, Harry, we know you're inwardly freaking out about waking up suddenly absolutely not dead. There is a reason that he's keeping the video off for now.] I suppose they don't care about that, do they? Right. Anyway, here's my question. Is there anyone who actually thought they were fictional before arriving here, or are we just believing what we've been told since there's nothing else to go off of? Because no offense, but the last seventeen years of my life have been a bit too chaotic to be anything but real. I can't imagine why anyone would want to fictionalize my life in the first place. Also, fictional or not, can anyone tell me what happens to our lives back where we came from? Do they just stop existing? It's really important that I get an answer. ...er. I think that's all for now. Thanks.

In that case how were you able to tell the difference between the fact and the fiction?

In real life, the events unfolding around someone make sense, but the plot isn't going anywhere. In fiction, the surrounding circumstances conveniently ignore every principle of causality, but the chain of events always makes sense.

I think my life events have been unfolding, failing to make sense for the longest time, but are still moving forward whether I want them to or not. [But he wants them to. He wants to finally end it and solve everything.]

Well, even if we're real, the presence of mysterious forces in our lives can't be entirely accounted for, even if the idea of them is irritating and unscientific.
