This is not your ordinary fanfiction. This is, like the title says, an overly imaginative autobiography. The only reason I posted this on a fanfiction website is because almost all the characters in this story are characters that were created by a big Hollywood film company. But this story is more than that. Not only is this story about how I overcame THE biggest mental crisis in my life, but it is also the story of my long journey into adulthood.

There's just one thing: this story takes place in two worlds: the real world, and the world I like to call "my own personal version of the OASIS. "What is the OASIS?" you may ask? It refers to a novel written by a man named Ernest Cline called "Ready Player One." To those of you who haven't read it, it's about an eccentric who creates an enormous virtual reality simulation called the OASIS, filled with every piece of modern pop culture in existence. When the creator dies, everyone is wondering who will control the OASIS, so before he died, he creates a contest where whoever finds a mysterious egg will inherit complete control over the OASIS. And it is up to one teenager to find the egg, win the contest, and keep the OASIS from falling into the hands of an evil megacorporation that will stop at nothing to win the contest.

You're probably thinking that I'm being an asshole right now because I'm trying to pass someone else's idea off as my own, but I would like to point out that that's not true. I said that Ernest Cline created "Ready Player One," not me, so technically, I'm not trying to pass it off as my own. Nor do I intend to. I don't own most of the characters in this story, and I don't claim ownership of them by using them in this story. And if it makes you feel any better, every time a character's name is mentioned for the first time in a chapter, it will have a little number next to it referring to a specific section of the bibliography at the end of the chapter, which will have a little message in it saying "This character is copyrighted and owned by etc." Plus, I'm not going to make any money with this story since I posted it on a fanfiction website where anyone can read it for free.

But I'm not doing this for money. That's not why I wrote this story. The only reason I wrote this story is because I went through a hell of a mental crisis, and with my overactive imagination, I decided to write a story about it. I want people to read about all the shit I've been through and find a way to feel better about their lives. I created this story because I thought it would help people get through their shit. I think that should be the goal of every writer; to help people escape the shitty hand life dealt them, like Wade Watts said in "Ready Player One."

But then why am I using characters that other people have created? Well, I know it sounds crazy, but I'm crappy at creating my own characters. It just feels so much easier to use characters that I know and am familiar with. It's like playing with a Barbie Dreamhouse instead of building your own dollhouse from scratch. But I know that's still no excuse for being unoriginal. It's ironic. All my life I've been so creative in the sense that I'm good at making up stories, but the only part I'm not creative at is creating my own characters.

That's true, and I'm not bullshitting you. I am good at making up stories. I just didn't write them out because writing is hard for me. My ideas come and go faster than my hand can write them out. That's why for my whole life, I've been creating stories involving me and various characters from TV shows and movies that I like, who I've called my friends. Yep, every time I found a TV show or movie I liked, I put the main characters into my stories. Except I didn't call them stories back then. I thought of those stories as episodes of my own personal TV show, which I called "The SpongeBob SquarePants Show." I called it that because the two main characters of the show were me and my favorite cartoon character of all time, SpongeBob SquarePants1. The show was all about us and our zany adventures. Although me and SpongeBob weren't the only characters in the main cast. We also had Winnie the Pooh2 and his friends, Tigger2, Rabbit2, Piglet2, and Eeyore2. You also probably wouldn't recognize him, but we also had Kipper the Dog3 and his friends, Tiger3, Pig3, and Jake3.

I also changed the characters a bit. For one thing, I made SpongeBob into an inventor, and I would drive us around in a car that SpongeBob had safety-proofed so that a child could drive it. And there would be times when one of his inventions would go wrong. He was sort of like Jimmy Neutron1. Also, SpongeBob would sometimes hit some of the other characters when he thought they were being stupid. And he would call them idiots sometimes. Think of it sort of like Moe4 from the Three Stooges. However, over time, I started to not think that was funny anymore, so he stopped doing that. Then, I just decided to let them be themselves.

Then, suddenly, "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic" came out. I watched a few episodes, and decided I kinda liked it. I know it was intended for girls, but the animation was fantastic! So, naturally, I added its main characters to my show. I made it so that we had an inter-dimensional portal so that we could see them any time we wanted. Over time, as I watched more episodes, I started to absolutely love it! Its lessons about friendship actually taught me how to make friends, making me eternally grateful to its characters.

Then one day I discovered "Steven Universe." I watched one episode, and I instantly fell in love with the show! I watched how Steven4 was super energetic, totally wacky, compassionate and understanding, and at the same time totally unafraid of what people would think of him! I'm not afraid of saying that Steven Universe sort of taught me that I can be a little bit crazy, but also kind and compassionate. He basically taught me how to be myself.
