Obviously, the character Lain belongs to someone else. But I don't really think anything else here is copy-rightable.
Lain
'Second' Lain
'Third' Lain
Why am I still here? I should not exist, no one remembers me, and if one is not remembered, they do not exist, right?
But we do exist, we are here, are we not? Perhaps one's existence is accounted for by more than just memory.
We do not exist in the memories of others as the Lain which we were, but we still exist as a possibility, an idea, a thought, a phantom on the edge of a misty dream.
I am no longer part of reality. But what is reality? Things that are real exist, but not everything that exists is real.
Everything is real, even things that are not real, exist as ideas, possibilities, and dreams. Ideas can lead to action, which lead to possibilities, and possibilities can be realized, and dreams can be made into ideas. It is a never-ending cycle.
Everything is real, but at the same time, nothing is.
But you're not making any sense. How can I be real, but not be real at the same time?
No one truly remembers you, what you are, so you do not exist in the memories of the people, you are not real in their memory, but you are here, and exist as a possibility, a thought, and are real here, where all things that are not real are. This is the realm of possibilities, dreams, and wild notions.
So are we merely someone's thought, idea? The representation of what could be, a possibility? But.. I am me.
I am Lain.
No one else is me.
I am Lain..
