I've found a new way to talk to myself! It may prove to be extremely useful, or extremely annoying. gently-men and robots, I present to you... Chat Log.
-----------
I began the day like any other. A greeting to New York.
Brakelatabasaasta: Umber-hum. Brakelatabasaasta: Raise your hand if you're in New York! Lurker: ayee Brakelatabasaasta: I never said Simon says! You lose!
Then I found a poor, lost little squid.
Brakelatabasaasta: You look lost. CHaos.: ***darkname....answers(?)*** Brakelatabasaasta: What are you doing so far from home? CHaos.: ***no...song....outcast....*** CHaos.: ***must.....find....lightsong***
He was cute. We talked a bit, and then he left to find a light. Or a song. Or something. So after the baby-squid left, I partook of some of my usual recreation...
Synth.Foods|004: I see you went a blew yourself up.... Brakelatabasaasta: Lies! Brakelatabasaasta: I did no such thing. Synth.Foods|004: THen why did you " self inflicted catostrohpic decompressonize" Brakelatabasaasta: SHHHHHHH. Brakelatabasaasta: Just Brakelatabasaasta: SHHHHHHHH.
And... some other stuff happened, too. Like diseased people. And toxic foods. And hearing aids. And then, a complete stranger arrived!
Brakelatabasaasta: Oh, Theo! You finally came! I thought I'd never see you again! Theophilus: Say what now? Brakelatabasaasta: Now what say?
Followed buy a gift of friends. There were light shows, and we all had so much fun! Then a Liberty Bigship showed up.
Twilight.Crow: Look! Twilight.Crow: Battleship! Brakelatabasaasta: I'm gonna play with the battleships now! Death: Brakelatabasaasta was killed by a hostile vessel. Twilight.Crow: *laughs, slapping his knee* Brakelatabasaasta: Ah, my head... Brakelatabasaasta: Oh! A battleship! Twilight.Crow: Uh... Death: Brakelatabasaasta was killed by a hostile vessel. Synth.Foods|004: I assume he isnt playing with a full deck..... Brakelatabasaasta: Oh, my head... Brakelatabasaasta: Oh! A battleship! Death: Brakelatabasaasta was killed by a hostile vessel. Brakelatabasaasta: Oh, my head... Brakelatabasaasta: Oh! A battleship! Brakelatabasaasta: ... Brakelatabasaasta: I think I'll leave it alone.
But the real fun started when the big museum-robot-guy came along... I asked him some questions!
Brakelatabasaasta: So tell me, mister robot-bot... why are you 1.4? DSE)Sentinel.Kiosk_v1.4: ::This unit is DSE S.E. AI version 1.4:: Brakelatabasaasta: What's the D stand for?

Yeah, it got really confused, and started spinnin' and shootin' and latchin' on to things... and then he disappeared.
Brakelatabasaasta: So... did he... explode? Twilight.Crow: I think so.
But then he came back.
Brakelatabasaasta: Oh hey! He's back! Twilight.Crow: OH NO! Twilight.Crow: RUN! Brakelatabasaasta: Hey! Wait! Stop! DSE)Sentinel.Kiosk_v1.4: ::Preparing to latch to hostile target:: Brakelatabasaasta: Wait! Stop! Brakelatabasaasta: I need you to tell me what the D stands for.

So many secrets! I never knew that this Twilightman was so many interesting things! Then, some secret agent man came with a secret agent plan and called a technician.
DSE)Wilson: What's wrong, officer? =LSF=Jack.Norris: It has a serious software bug. Twilight.Crow: You think? Brakelatabasaasta: By the way, I had nothing to do with this malfunction. At all. Brakelatabasaasta: Like, I was in a different room when it happened.
And he fixed it.

And that was that! Funtimes with Brakelatabasaasta!
So, you other imaginary people who can sometimes read my thoughts... did this wonderful log of chat make you happy and squealing with delight, or was it painful and brain-hurt-giving? Brakelatabasaasta demands an answer! Different form of storytelling may be too different.
