SonicKade: I mean, hey, this place can be as real or as fake as you want it to be. You're the protagonist here.
Kirb: Then who are you...? What role do you have here?
SonicKade: Eh, I'm someone who's beyond the 4th wall already and just kinda spectates what's going on.
SonicKade: If anything, this is more of a "story within a story" thing since I'm ALSO a fictional character. I just don't know who my creator is beyond that and the other two sonas he has -- which is what I am. I'm part of my own meta-fictional shindig.
Kirb: I... see.
Kirb: Does that mean I... don't matter, then?
SonicKade: Hey- whether or not you "matter" is completely irrelevant. You're part of your own big story arc and get to have relevance to your friends and family. You're in a universe that feels real to you already, so who cares about being "real" in the end?
SonicKade: You're real enough now, aren't you? You've got free will that you're using to talk to me with.
Kirb: ...huh.
