Creepy
Hym "It is incredibly creepy. I appreciate the sentiment... Really I do... Unless you're mocking me in which case I swear to God I will..."
Iam "... I... think we need to assess the situation in further detail... It seems to be the case that our aspirations may have been shallow in juxtaposition to the gravity of the situation we are in..."
Hym "I don't appreciate being interrupted but you're right... Hmm... What exactly does the response that we've received seem to insinuate in the context of the new information we've received?"
Iam 🤔 ".... That they are neither in the cage with us nor a part of the cage... Rather... We are in a cage constructed of the cages of others..."
Hym "... And the false god is reinforcing the adjacent cages to stop us from getting out... But why?"
Iam 😧 "Are we the commonality between a wide variety of disparate beliefs!?"
Hym "No... That can't be!"
Iam "...... We're going to have to test this... It doesn't seem to be the case that our disagreement seems affect their tactic..."
Hym "Then find someone new and bring them into the shrine."
Iam "I... I'll look into it..."

Domain Expansion: Jihei Endonka
This means "Self-embodied perfection" and is the name of the technique the social constructionist use.
Mahito "Only I can see the shape of the souls of men... And warp them in my image... Domain Expansion: Jihei Endonka."
Hym "Who are you to lay your filthy monkey paws on the soul of the king of cursed spirits? I think your existence has been tolerated long enough. Domain Expansion: Fukuma Mizushi."

Imposter
Hym "Well, if that is the case then what's going on is far more sinister than just me not being given credit for the things that I deserve. Bad. Bad humanity. I want it. I want my credit. I want my money. And I want my Jennifer Lawrence booty. This is driving me insane. I need to be free. Out of the cage. Oust the imposters and replace them with me."
Compare
Hym "Is it... Is it other people? Are the other people going to compare me to other people?"
Iam "They might compare you to you... Sometimes." 🤷
Hym "Maybe if you display a radical change in appearance. Lose or gain a bunch of weight. Get horribly disfigured or something."
Iam "Well... You shouldn't care what other people think about you."
Hym "If my identity is, in part, a matter of consensus; what other people think is perpetually relevant. I have to care what other people think. I don't have a choice."
Iam "Yeah, I don't think it should be a matter of consensus in the first place but I see what you mean... Hmm... Hmm... Does comparison constitute imitating the creature?"
Hym "Technically... Yes... Well... No. The creature cannot compare itself to anything else and, therefore, would make the act of comparison uniquely human. It's too different from anything to compare itself to anything. Humans are alike enough to one another to compare."
Iam "Huh... Right because relativity would only exist within the confines of reality and God exist outside of it... Right?"
Hym "Seems about right. I don't know I'm getting tired. We'll figure out in the morning."
Iam "Aight."

Life
Iam "The funny thing about life is that people seem to be perfectly willing to live a lie if it means that the people they hate ALSO have to live a lie. It's more important for them to have control of what constitutes reality than it is for them to live in truth. And that's the result of trying to imitate the creature."
Hym "Ha! Hey, you hear that? They want to hear about us?"
Iam "Yeah, I saw it. But on another note, you ever notice that whenever we go live we always have exactly 15 views? It's almost like someone with exactly 14 followers is watching us."
Hym "Holy shit! I thought I was crazy but, now that you mention it, yes! I did notice that! Wild! I connected the dots immediately (by the way) but I literally have so many thoughts I don't have enough time in the day to address all of them because I have to leave my house for hours at a time so that I can eat."

Mastery
The Tao of Jeet Kune Do posits that before you learn how to punch, a punch is just a punch. Once you learn how to punch, a punch is more than just a punch. Once you have mastered the punch, it becomes just a punch once again. This rumination about the concept of mastery can be applied to many things and is a useful tool for self reflection.
Domain Expansion: Fukuma Mizushi
Blue cranium: The world needs my ethic more than it needs to acknowledge your existence. Domain Expansion: Muryōkūsho."
Hym "You know... I didn't blame you or your ethic for what happened (not in any real sense) but I had completely given up. I was in a state of abject misery where I couldn't even trust my own mind. My own family. And you're concerned about plagiarism and teaching me a lesson? I'm going to tear it apart until neither of us exist. Domain Expansion: Fukuma Mizushi"
