I cannot even begin to describe to you people how utterly disturbing it is to wake up in the morning and see a commercial for a video game based on your life. People are profiting from my life - really I should be saying "my death", but that just takes this to a whole new morbid level that I don't even want to get into.

Whoever the hell these Capcom people are need to knock it the fuck off before I find a way to accuse them for my murder and/or sue them for mental distress. I mean, hell, I'd really like to enjoy drinking my coffee and watching the movin' pi'ture box without having to relive the horrible memories of that time I got shot to death and destroyed an entire city, if that's a-okay with these people. Maybe I'd be able to make a case for neglect considering they are kind of like my parents or something, I guess? I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. Actually, speaking of. Edgeworth, Phoenix, I've got a really funny story to tell you guys some time.

Does anyone else actually live in a world where they are knowingly fictional? Because it's hard. It's hard and nobody understands.

Well, you could always do what I did and bugger off to a different world like a total coward. It worked, at least.

That's no fun at all. I intend to die and see if I come back when the game starts over.

You're a braver sort than me. Even if I did come back and it works, I don't think I'd like the whole "dying then coming back to life only to die again" thing.

Probably a cultural thing. My world's got stuff that means we can actually do that without the world resetting! Although it's usually for 'almost dying' than 'death,' but it's close enough and we have enough violence being tossed around that it happens to everyone who leaves town at least once!

Or maybe I am brave.
