Completeness. A personhood that can't simply be overwritten when 'tis more convenient for them not to experience or react to something.

[ Time to really challenge him on this. ]

And what makes a person complete? I don't remember ever feeling that way. And all of us had our memories erased and new experiences overwriting our blank slates in Imeeji. Does that mean none of us are real people?

You always had thoughts and feelings. Even the producers were not able to simply shut our minds off with the flick of a switch. That is what I mean, more than memory.

[glidinglight]

And can you ever remember a time when you had no thoughts or feelings?

[happydreamed]

Yes. I can.

Details or it didn't happen.

If we were in Tokyo-F still, I could simply show you on my phone. As it is, I have to describe it.

Russell took myself and two others into a part of the dream that was 'unregulated'. Rather than appearing as a coherent scene, it was an endless void with a mishmash of objects and textures from other parts of the dream, some changing randomly from one thing to another.

I fought the monsters that appeared there, but in my head there were no thoughts and no feelings. It would have been inconvenient to the purposes of the dream for me to react to the clear break of reality in front of me, so I simply did not.

[ Yeah sometimes the inability to just straight up share memoires anymore can be a hindrance. ]

Your whole reality was distorted and unstable. Pure chaos. You can't say for sure that another person wouldn't enter a similar state because that's not a replicable scenario.

The only person who reacted to their surroundings there was also the only real person involved.
