01 - Who's Who

So uh, I had this really scary memory come back to me, and I need help identifying either of these two...individuals. I drew them from memory so they might not be exactly like this...



The guy on the left is called Philemon. I saw him in a place that I can't quite remember but there was a checkerboard floor and Greek columns. His mask looks like it came from a bargain bin theater play. He said the place was a gulf between the conscious and the unconscious. Not sure why that would have a checkerboard floor, but there you go.

It's what he said that's got me confused. Something about the land of Sumaru being a netherworld where rumors are reality and we had to use our power to fight back. He called it Persona? Something like summoning the selves inside of you...angels and demons...breaking the chains of karma...sounded really important if the guy bothered to summon us for it...OH RIGHT! He was a golden butterfly before turning into a man.

...I promise this is a memory and not substance abuse by the way. Even ten cups of Coffee wouldn't give me that kind of freaky vision.

Anyway. I guess the monster on the right would be something from the netherworld? I don't know, that was my first memory before this one. Someone else was with me doing motorcycle noises to it for some reason...I don't think his 'Persona' was doing that...heck I don't even know what a "persona" is supposed to be. And with a bunch of people off somewhere, I figured asking everyone might be better than just bothering my bros...

Your help is greatly appreciated. If you know something about anything I just wrote, or just want to share your thoughts, I'll make it up to you if you can help me.

I know 'you get used to it' isn't that reassuring, but it's true. Things like that won't bother you after a few months of memories.
thesettingsun: mad (you don't care where they land)

Don't worry about it. We were all new once and getting our first weird memories, the least I can do is help someone out.

Shuji Tsushima, college student, nice to meet you. I published a novel last month if you follow that any?

It's a space drama centered around moral relativism. Honestly, I was just trying to come up with something to mention so we wouldn't be total strangers anymore, that was the first thing I came up with.

I feel you on the college problems.

What are you majoring in? I don't remember taking physiology courses.
thesettingsun: smile (I'm just as good as you)

Literature. At least you probably don't get 'what real job are you going to get with that degree?' as much.
thesettingsun: smile (and they don't even know)

Ughhhh, 'do it for the exposure' is the absolute worst.

Thank you for the offer. My book's A Relative Weight, I'd send you the Amazon link but you can't even order things from Amazon anymore. It's at all the local bookstores, though.

Re: (I will need information on this book because he will read it haha)

[Novel information!]

It shouldn't even be that complicated. Just 'if I'm doing work I should be paid for the work'. Done.
thesettingsun: smile (but it's so damn cold)

what do you mean he can't read an entire novel in one conversation

People are jerks who don't see celebrities as 'people'. I've never exactly been famous, but if this novel sells really well, who knows. Maybe I'll siphon some of the jerks from you.
thesettingsun: smile (it's like paradise)

It's fine! We all need to vent sometimes, I don't mind being vented at.

thread wrapup?

I'll be sure to keep that in mind.
