two people. I havent figured out their names yet…
“Idiot!” - 1?
“Yeah! Stupid author!” - 2?
Bah on you two. You’re only fighting with me because thats the only dimension i’ve given to you. Neither of you know how to do anything but fight!
“Eh?! Is that so?!?!?! So what if I took it upon myself to feel…/love/!” - 1?
‘Yeah! /looooooove/!” - 2?
Well…i suppose that would add to the story. Two single dimension characters cant really do much… Though i do wonder….who exactly will you love? I mean, there are only two of you, so you might love one another, but-
“EEEEEEEW” - 1?
“Bluhgghghughughgh” -2?
What? What’s wrong with that?
“We HATE eachtoher!” - 1?
“Yeah!” - 2?
“Before you took it upon yourself to utterly destroy the fourth wall, the only thing in this universe was /US/.” -1?
“And like you said, we are one dimensional fighting characters” - 2?
…So?
“Wow you are dumb. If you have two one dimensional fighting characters…what are they gonna do?” - 1?
“Paint pretty pictures?” - 2?
Wait….so you mean to be telling me you’ve been fighting since…well since i created you. Which would mean only about half an hour because i just thought this up in the middle of Computer Science.
“Well…yeah…but half an hour is a long time for us one dimensional fighting characters” - 2?
Bah. Havent you ever seen any anime with your kinds of characters?! I single battle spans, like, ten half hour episodes! I bet you guys were just getting around to hurling insults.
“…” - 1?
“…” - 2?
…
“That is what you kinda walked in on…” - 1?
“Thats why we had such good insults to throw at you. They were meant for eachother but you got in the way” - 2?
…
“By the way, can i have a name? I think that it is incredibly unfair that i have been dubbed “2” even if it is a questionable “2”” - 2?
Joy, we are actually getting somewhere in the story. Alright, what would you like your name to be?
“Ip” - 2?
…Ip? What does that mean?
“I dunno. You’re the author. You come up with some background for me.” - Ip
“ME TOO! DON’T FORGET ME!” - 1?
Do you have a request for your name and/or background 1?
“Hmmmm… How about…Will!” - 1?
NO!
“What? What’s wrong with Will?” - 1?
That’s /my/ name!
“So? Who says you get complete autonomy over all names? Who left you in charge? I think im going to mutiny….yes…thats right…I am now disbeleiving in the author. He does not exsist.”
Do you really expect that to do something?
“Who said that?!?!?!” - 1?
…
“Who just …ed?!?!?!” - 1?
“You are insane. Author you should erase him. -nod-” - Ip
-erase-
“AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH! MY ARM!!!! HOW COULD YOU!!!!! THE PAIN!! ITS BLEEDING!!! OH THe BLOOD IS EVERYWHEREAKJHIFoeifnawfnasldfnmdlfk…”
That was /awful/! I didn’t think you guys could /bleed/. Especially not /that/ much!
“Oh yes. We are based off of your idea of a human…See up there where i nodded? Basic human physiology. So yeah. We can bleed. Also, im bored just talking to you. Can you give me a setting? And maybe some more characters? Just a character is kinda boring…” - Ip
Alright, you asked very nicely. I’ll make you a rival. First we need to thresh out you though…
“…thresh out? Sounds scary” said Ip, a towering bastion of a man.
“Dude! That’s awesome! Though, I would much rather be a fast kind of guy, and “towering bastion” seems a little off.” Said Ip, the slight elf.
“Oh. No. Not elf. I’ll get picked on. By /everybody/. Nobody likes an elf. I mean, just look at legolas!” said Ip
“OH LOOK AT ME! IM A PRETTY BOY ELF AND I LIKE FLOWERS AND HORSEYS AND I HAVE BLONDE HAIR BUT BLACK EYEBROWS CUZ IM HOT LIKE THAT!” Ip said, mockingly in a high pitched girl voice.
Internally Ip was thinking through his personality. The author had given him full access to the “strands of creation” the driving force behind his entire universe. Quite cliched though. Strands of creation has no flair…
Anyways Ip went back to his personality. He was highly sarcastic. He inherited that from the author. He’d need to invest in some other things though. First he would be a Hero…Wait…where did that come from?!?!!? Who introduced the idea of Hero here?!
“Hehehehehe” - …
Hey i didn’t say you could come in here!
“Bah! I do what i want.” - …
“Oh i /like/ him. Can he stay? He’s much better than anything i could think up for this world. Also can we switch out of the narrative thing to discus this? Iw oudl be much easier” - Ip
Already done. And, fine. He can stay. But you have to make a setting, ….
“I’m sorry …. is my brother. I’m …” - …
And no more of that. I’m giving you a proper name.
“Oooooh! Can i be Adam West?!” -…
No. I dub thee… El.
“El? Hmmm…i actually like it.” - El
Good. Now come up with a setting for you and Ip. I’d suggest a town. Towns are good places to start generally.
“Hmmm…How about the town of… Magnolia!” - El
That sounds flowery!
“You’re flowery!” - El
“Flowerface!” - Ip
“Yeah! You tulip!” - Sus
…why are there three of you?
“I…dunno. I don’t think /I/ made him” - El
“HIM!? I’m a /her/ you Imbecile! And that’s Imbecile with a capital I!” - Sus
You sure she’s no yours? Sure sounds like your kind of thing.
“/My/ kind of thing? You blathering idiot. I /am/ you. or a part of you. or whatever” - El
“Oh, she’s mine” - Ip
Yours?!
“Yours?!” - El
When did you learn to Make?
“Make? Whats that? I meant she’s mine as in dibs.”
…
“…” - El
“…” - Ip
“…” - Sus
I think you should run…Now. I didn’t Make her, which means if shes kills you then that becomes part of someone /elses/ story.
“So?” - Ip
Which means i cant re-Make you alive. Your dead until i can find the other author and convince them to let you come back to life.
“Ah” - Ip
“Does the same go for me?” - El
Yes
“Ah -looks at Ip-” -El
“Ah -looks at El-” -Ip
“Ah -starts towards them both” -Sus
