mark would come have tea with me, sometimes. i was always around if he needed someone to bounce ideas off of, or if he just needed to get away from some chaos. he was never particularly close to any of the egos past dark and wilford (as they were more personal to him in terms of persona) but he did confide in me once that he really did like us, he just... wasn't really sure how to interact with us sometimes.
i understood, of course. i'm not really sure what we were, or what mark was, but i know definitively that we weren't just human. it's hard to grasp how many people like him there were out in the world ("like him" meaning that you could create characters from your own mind and have them come to life and become their own selves) but he couldn't have been the only one.
i suppose i wouldn't know, considering that as egos we were relatively insular and typically didn't form many deep connections with... ""real humans"". but i knew there were others like us out there, there was no way it was Just Us.
regardless, i suppose we lucked out in a few ways, what with him being so benevolent and what have you. i'd like to clarify that i am in no way talking about the real mark here, i am talking about /my/ mark and /my/ mark was truly just such a sweetheart. always getting himself into trouble (and thus always creating more of us, but i digress) and trying to leave the world a better place than he left it. i have a feeling not many other beings could say that about their creators so i consider myself lucky in that regard, i think.
...it's weird. talking about him like this. i'm trying to not be so wary about it but every time i do i always feel as though i'll be killed so i hesitate to, more often than not. but he was one of my dear creators. hard not to be fond of him, really. i wonder if he's out there, somewhere, but there's a certain terror that comes with attempting to locate him so perhaps it's for the best that i don't.
regardless. i hope he's well, wherever he is.
