Ah, Mondays. Back to school at last.
I smiled to myself as I headed down the familiar hallways, looking forward to the classrooms where I had oceans of knowledge just waiting for me to dive into.
My alter ego chose that moment to kick in.
And you’ll be able to see Brit again.
Shut. Up.
No.
I considered seeing a therapist; surely hearing annoying alter ego voices in your head couldn’t be healthy. I scowled to myself, musing at my now ruined Monday morning rush.
You are such a nerd.
Oh, leave me alone.
You know, most people hate Mondays.
I know.
So this is a much more normal emotion for you to feel.
Do you ever shut up?
No.
Great.
Ooh, sarcasm. Feisty.
Ok, it’s official. I’m losing it.
No, you’re conflicted.
Great, you’re smart too.
Duh, I’m you. Nerd, remember?
Don’t remind me.
I just did.
sigh… stupid, stupid, stupid alter ego.
Hey, I heard that.
I was about to sigh again when I saw her.
Oh crap.
Breathe, Vaughn. Just go up and talk to her!
NO!
Wimp.
Shut up.

    Haha, me too. And then by the time my alter self and I have reached a consensus, it’s too late to act. I like the somewhat parallel to the most recent I am Anima and how she starts out, “Ugh. Mondays.” I don’t know if it’s intetnional, but it’s pretty cool.
    LoA

    Yes, it was completely intentional. lol. I’ve been waiting to get this side of the series up to speed before sequeling the other one. I want to keep them approximately in the same time frame.

    Man this is super relateable! I have conversations (ok more like arguments) with myself ALL the time. Hand movements and all (I’m hispanic its a thing we do. If you ever run into a Cuban who doesn’t look like they’re about to take off while they’re talking be worried lol). You really are quite the genius for coming up with such an awesome idea for a series. Keep up the fantastic job!
