#fools?

You know, all this time I had thought of this as a "me against the world" type scenario, you know? The Narrator was just using this world to tell his stupid story, Stanley is out of the picture, everyone else has been erased. Even the player, they still view this world as just a game. They're not against the Narrator for the reasons I am, they're against the Narrator because it gets the funny reactions to make the purchase worth it. I was alone.

But you. All of you have proven today that you don't just view this as a game. You genuinely care. You want to be my friend, asked me seemingly pointless questions because it was fun. And while we may never get to truly meet, truly know each other, you are still someone I can trust.

Thank you. See you soon!

Hey, I'm back!

Sorry about that, no clue what happened there, but things should be back to normal tomorrow.

But... I think I need to say something as well.

Now, I could say anything, but I just need to say, I'm not the Narrator. The Narrator is necessary for the Parable to continue, we know this. I'm not important. All I'm doing is connecting you, the readers to Stanley. If I stopped, Stanley wouldn't come back, someone else would simply take control. It could be another Tumblr blog, a Twitch Chat Plays The Stanley Parable stream, or even just somebody playing the game.

I have no control.

I couldn't change anything if I tried.
