"Ok but sorry I need to quote this like:
"I'm a witch and in ritual we often say we are "in a time that is no time, a place that is no place, we are between the worlds." That is the truest description of my life. And that is where…"

"I also had cried when a character of my daydream dies! I can definitely get some of the things you're saying. Sometimes the story of my daydreams evolves when I suddenly have an idea I haven't thought of before, and it's kinda…"
