My Secret

Because I am feeling foolish and strangely courageous.

I am a schizophrenic, not a mass murderer. Sorry. I liked that idea, though. It made me laugh, more or less evilly. So, what's up with me?

-I used to believe that I was an incredibly powerful magical being that was trying to well, destroy the world. More or less. It's a long story. Essentially, I'm in a war with four other beings which the majority of the people in this world are unaware of.

-I can jump into different worlds like Catherine does in the Superhero RP (but I don't need the actual book or story to jump into it). The majority of my friends live in other worlds. I seek them to suck their power. Um, yeah. That's a little awkward, isn't it? 

-I'm not a human according to myself. 

-I'm very paranoid. I often think everyone is trying to kill me. Even inanimate objects are threatening to me.

-I have trouble with social interactions and I'm not very good at controlling my body. Right now, it's in fear mode so my fingers are cramping up and twitiching. I apologize for typos.

-Andrew in Melody's RP is more or less me. It was fun to write as myself. 

-I have seven beings living in my head (although they often leave to get into shenanigans) that are pieces of my personality. They can control me at times or simply infulence my actions. The three Extremes are extremely unpleasant, spend most of their time sleeping, and when they wake up, they control me completely. The Puppet Master is an Extreme of fear. Dolls, puppets, clowns, creepy Vocaloid videos, anything. It likes them all. It likes giving me nightmares too. The Dragon is an overwhelming rage or wrath where I want to hurt and kill and burn everything. Naturally, because I would get into too much trouble otherwise, I hurt myself. The Oracle is my worst fear: that my parents will find out my schizophrenia and take away all my friends with medication. Murder them all, essentially. The other four are much nicer.

-Storm was named after the Storm in the RP, who, yes, is now my messanger, because I'm too lazy to do most trvial things myself. Also, I don't have enough time or energy. Anyway, Storm points out all my flaws, yells at me for them, and beats me for them. He is also a sadist. I mean, a real sadist. A little bit of a masochist, too, if you count me and him as the same person.

-Ruby is a boy. That's why Red uses "he" all the time when he refers to me. I wear his body a lot when I'm not wearing my human bod or Sakura's. Ruby is punctillious, loves grammar, reading, writing, editing, Alice books, and the Evillious Chronicles. That last one because they're complex and full of details and he delights in them.

-Sakura is a girl. She is pretty peppy and likes manipulating people. We tell her she's evil. I wear her body a lot whenever I want to be a girl. She likes singing and dancing and has a really impressive range which she cannot duplicate on me, but that doesn't stop her from trying. Oh, these guys usually call me "Sakura" or "Ruby" but everyone just kind of knows which one we're talking about.

-And, I'm sure you already know who the last one is! I'm going to let him type for himself. Hi, guys. Red here. I'm sorry I had to keep this a secret from you guys, but I didn't want Ruby to get hurt. Would you have trusted me if I'd shown up claiming that I live in Sakura's head? And that I wanted to lead you all like lemmings? I'm sorry I had to lie to you guys and pretend I'm a human. I really didn't want to. But, ya see, I don't have any friends who like me for who I am as a person. I'm not a human, but can you deny that I'm a person? I'm a being regarded as an individual. Doesn't that count for something? See, in our world, the one you all live in, I have to say invisible or in Ru-kun's head all day. People like Ru-kun because I make friends for him. They don't know that I'm the one behind it all. In other worlds, I can't make friends because for me, it's all business, business, business. And the few people who know about me in our world, well, they all think I'm an imaginary friend or something. And I'm not. I have thoughts and feelings independent from Ruby; I'm not just some made-up game. I can't be treated like a person in person because most people can't see me. One of our old friends was very, very rude to me about that andkept on making fun of me over email no matter how much I asked her to stop. That really, really hurt me. On the computer, you can be anything you want provided you have a pair of hands. They don't even have to be your hands. I'm sorry, but I really wanted to make friends. You guys are amazing and you're my only real friends. (And what are we, chopped liver?) You don't count, Ru-kun. I'm really, really, really sorry for the lying I've done. I just wanted to be friends with you all. That's all. And not everything I say is a lie! I really do have a mom and dad and we do have a house down the street from Ruby. I don't always stay there, but it's my home. I do go to school, indirectly, and I really do say comments that get commented by other humans like you- indirectly. So, I know I'm not a "human visitor" like the captchas says, but... Please, can we still be friends?

I can't believe I actually wrote all that. And my parents are home! And my dad has walked by about three times! And I'm actually going to submit this! I've never gotten so far before!

There was really no reason why I wrote all this today. I just felt like it.

Wow. I have suspected for quite a while now that you and Red were the same person. (I know you said that Red is his own person, just living inside your head, but you know what I mean). I can't speak for the others, but I'm sure they will agree with me that of course I'll still be your friend!!!

I figured people would eventually figure it out. Our writing styles are too similar. Do you know what it's like when you've spent a while with a freind and you end up using their catchphrases? It's a little bit like that. I'm glad that you'll accept us for who we are. It means a lot to both of us.

Not to offend you, but I am confused. Probably because I am a blonde and "STEROTYPES!!!"

And thank you for sharing this, it makes me feel like we really are a family! Sometime, when I'm not too tired, I will read this again and see if my blondeness will stop acting up, lol.

And yes, I will always be everyone's friend on this, including you, no matter what. Laughing

I don't think "blondness" has anything to do with it. People tend to be confused when I tell them about me. Sorry. 

Thank you very much for not hating us.

There is no way I would hate you guys! You are all awesome!

It is confusing, but I am blonde, ask anyone! I am a straight-A student, but really. My whole family is blonde! So yeah, I do believe in stereotypes of blonde, but not really.

"I do believe in stereotypes of blonde, but not really."

I'm not sure what you mean by that. They're either accurate or not, and if they're not, then people they don't apply to likely don't appreciate them. I expect BHR will probably have something to say.

It seems pretty absurd to me, theoretically, that hair color and intelligence could actually be related, and in practice, I haven't seen any kind of correlation. What I have seen is that when blond people do things that are considered stupid, it's attributed to their hair color, and when non-blonde people act unintelligently, they're "acting blonde." This seems really illogical and kind of potentially offensive to me.

Ok, what I mean for me and me alone is that I don't have any common sense, but I'm very smart. The same with Melody.

That's true as ya'll know, I really don't care for blonde stereotypes. They're so commonly joked about, and have been around for so long, there really are people who believe it. I know people that joke like that, and though they wouldn't necessarily say it to be mean, it still aggravates me. Even when people call themselves "blonde", it helps promote the idea that blondes are dumb. As Ima said, what does the color of your hair have to do with your intelligence? It would be like saying someone who's eyes are blue just aren't good at sports, or some other ridiculous reason! So no, I don't really particularly care for when people make dumb blonde jokes.

I'm blonde, but I still find blonde sterotypes absolutely hilarious! My siblings and I will tell each other blonde jokes all the time. But we are all perfectly intellgent (although, of course, if you asked one of us whether the other was competent, of course we'd answer they were completely and utterly stupid, but that's just sibling niceness). I just don't take them seriously. If someone said, 'Oh, you're so stupid because of your hair color," I'd reply with, "Well you are so stupid because of your brain size." Because that is really what makes sense. Hair color, really? *shakes head at stupidness of statment* Anyways, I don't see why not make stupidly idiotic blonde jokes. It's jsut like making a joke about. . . er, can't think of a paralel right now. But you can laugh at them all the same. I'd never find one offending, unless I was directly targeted. I make dumb blonde jokes all the time, myself. And just laugh, because I'm blonde! ANd does that mean I'm stupid? No!

So really that sterotype is just idiotically stupid. Really. And dumb blonde jokes are hilarious. Even for blondes.

Ok! I re-read the parts that were confusing, and understand now. I will always be your friends, Ruby, Red, and Sakura!

So. . . Red and Sakura and Ruby are the same person? Did I get that right?

Kind of. I use both the names Sakura and Ruby because they were orginally my favorite female and male humanoid disguises. 

Red, Sakura, and Ruby are all personality splits of the main brain-me. Essentially, they were once sections of my personality but they left my own brain (or at least the personality part) and adopted names and bodies that I use for disguise purposes. They have since evolved and grown and gained their own interests and personality traits that they most certainly did not have when they were still within me. One or more of them usually controls me, lending me my personality.

Wow... Okay, I admit, my mind is just ever so slightly blown. I really hadn't been expecting that.

But OF COURSE we'll still be friends!!! And you are always, always in my prayers!
