    I played a ton of video games as a child until this occurred naturally, the downside is that my internal monologue now gets quite bored without some cliche puzzle or danger. Super juiced when either of those things is present though

      I always think back to being a kid and reading that His Dark Materials series and the way I pined terribly for having a daemon from those books. In reality it’s probably as simple as a mental exercise where I talk myself through a problem with a fellow “me” whose welfare is tied to my own but who isn’t exactly me.
