Everyone talks about getting out of here and going back home, but I don't have a home to go back to. I don't know where I'm supposed to go if not here.
Similarly to the above, except that I am dead. It is not a matter of finding a new home when there is not one left, but rather, knowing that all I have to look forward to on the other side of this escapade is the sweet oblivion of death.
While I appreciate a second chance to attempt to complete my life's work to an extent, I have long grown weary of living. If I cannot accomplish my goal this time, there is nothing waiting on the other side.
Sleep's influence recently has been almost agonizing and I'm terrified I'm going to lose myself. I know Tethers can help keep the changes at bay but I haven't made many yet. I've always struggled to connect with others. I know how to make myself useful but that's not the same as being likeable.
I feel as if the same miserable social failings I've always had might wind up actually killing me here because of course I'd wind up in a place where making friends might be necessary for survival. And it's even worse knowing I may never see my friends from back home again, and that they'll never know what happened to me. They're the only ones I've ever felt actually close to and I never got the chance to tell them how much they really mean to me.
It's pathetic. But maybe it's what I've really always deserved and I've just been deluding myself otherwise.
i don't tell people what i am because it's personal and it's none of anyone else's business also we're all different now anyway so it doesn't matter that much for me
it's not some great moral failing to have things you don't want to tell people
Back home it would be treated as one. I've lied to the world about it and were the truth to come out I wouldn't need any of the changes from this place to be seen by society as a monster.
It's just...been difficult to break away from that feeling.
