After all these years, I feel it is time to make a confession, dear friends-list. It is a confession of a terrible sin I have committed and maintained for a long time, a sin which many of you have suspected but which few of you have accused me of.

It is true. lacidiana and burningvigor are indeed both me.

You see, when I was a young child, I had an imaginary friend named Court, and when I still hadn't stopped seeing her in high school and had gone online to make friends, I decided to take on her personality and cultivate a fake 'best friends' relationship online. All those comment threads? All those pairing discussions and RP logs and e-mails and AIM conversations? It was all me, everyone. I wasted so much time on leading a double life -- why else do you think I always fell behind in school? Why else do you think I was always late with shift-changes and terrible with e-mail replies? Why do you think I practiced at photoshopping images? To add pictures of 'Court' to them.

I KNOW. IT ALL FINALLY MAKES SENSE.
