Don't ask, it's late.

(Can we just look at this for a minute? Cause I just noticed this and I feel a need to point it out.)
"Ok, why am I here then?" AJ asked.
(This is what I usually use as an AN a.k.a. authors note in my fanfictions, this is pretty much the author speaking.)
"And?"
And you are another version of me.
(Oh good! You're here! The point I wanted to make, is that there are more of me then I initially thought. There is this middle-of-the-fanfic AN.)
There's me, that guy that was supposed to be the author but I actively talked instead of breaking in at random times.
Then there is me, the AN at the start and end of the chapters.
"I think I see the point you are trying to make here." AJ realized.
(And then there's the evil double. HE'S FUN.)
"Yep, fun." AJ said sarcastically.
(And in the end, while I'm the closest one to being the true voice of the author, I'm still not the author!)
I am!
No, I am! I'm the narrator!
"I'm just the OC!" AJ added in.
(In the end, we are all just 'voices' for the author to use in different scenarios, who is typing down everything we say.)
He's the reason we say anything at all!
And when you think about it… we aren't saying anything at all, we're just text.
Dude! Don't make me feel like I don't exist!
"I accept that I'm not real!" AJ added in.
(In the end, we are all just copies of the one true author, who doesn't have a voice here. Instead, we talk for him!)
My brain is already starting to hurt the further we go into this…
"Wow. I thought seeing so many AJ's would turn me on but… nope, only works for the real one!"
"Blake!? Can you go for a minute sweetie!? Kind of trying to work things out here!"
"Ok! Sorry!"
Well that was weird…
AJ nodded in agreement.
Yeah.
(Agreed. But seriously, even if we added a voice that was written in italics to use as the real author speaking, it still would just be another voice… isn't that weird?)
"It would be more complicated if the evil double was here…"
"You called?"
No! Just… no! Why did you have to go and make this so complicated!?
"Hey, don't hate." The evil double said.
(Ok, it's late, IRL and in this chapter… Maybe we should just stop before this gets worse?)
Probably a good idea…
NO! We just got started!
(You are literally another me and yet we are disagreeing right now… what was the quote? Arguing with yourself is fine, but once you start losing the argument is when you're crazy? Something like that, I think.)
"Probably right." The evil double agreed.
"Sounds about right." AJ agreed as well.
Ok, yeah, maybe we should stop now… there are enough of me… us… as it is…
"We could bring in the me from the SPWM fic." AJ suggested.
"Let's not forget that genderbend you threw in for the luls!" The evil double reminded.
(Nope! Done! Take it away, End AN voice! Even I don't want to go into a deep explanation for why none of us are the real author anymore…)
Thank you, Random Fourth Wall Breaking Voice.
I am currently working on the next chapter of SPWM, but it's coming along slowly, which is why I am permanently changing my post schedule to hopefully once a week. Maybe you enjoyed this weird idea that came up in the middle of the night and I decided "Screw it" and typed it up in maybe 20 minutes? Maybe. Have a great week!
Ok, personal question from author to viewer, not from End AN Voice to viewer, which voice do you think is the closest to the real author? The narrator, that's me, the voice that only speaks to you the viewer, (That's me), or the voice in bold, that's me, that only talks to the viewer at the end and start of the chapters. One of those questions that doesn't really have a right answer, huh?
Yes, I do sometimes question my own sanity.
(Like right now?)
"The author would say yes but I have to say it for him." AJ deadpanned.
Haha! I just remembered a dumb complaint that I use the other characters to speak for me, and I'm literally doing that right now! XD
I'll be honest, even I am a little bit confused right now… and I wrote this shit…
