Anyone have any sort of writing they've written about PSO? Share your creativity! I wrote something the other day that's a bit personal, but I'm willing to share. Just don't laugh at me lmao.
Criticism is encouraged though! Tell me what you guys think!
Okay here goes..

Okay here goes..
Olga Flow: Echo... Why do you stand here before me? Why are you even here?
Echo: I'm.. I'm not really sure..
Olga Flow: Is that all you have to say?
Echo: No.. I wanted to become the worlds greatest hunter. I wanted to be the best.
Olga flow: Even if it means letting down your friends? Your family? Do they mean nothing to you?
Echo: Of course not. They mean everything. They're the reason I do this.
Olga Flow: But your quest to become the best hunter is actively pushing them away. Don't you feel any guilt?
Echo: Yeah.. Yeah I do.. But even if I feel this way I need to persevere.. I need to do this for them.
Olga Flow: Them? How is this for them? This is for you and you know it.
Echo: Well yeah a part of this is for me. Ever since I was a child I've never felt like I could accomplish much of anything. It was pretty lonely for me. locked away in my room with nothing to keep me company but the many voices that spoke to me through the computer. Being a prototype android.. My master shunned me soon after his next creations were built. In many ways he would put me down and tell me how inadequate I was. "Too many bugs.. Unfortunately, you'll never become much of anything.." he would say.. as time passed I continued to carry that with me in my thoughts. But I've learned that nothing he said changed anything that I've done up til this point. All the hard work I had to do to make it here. And I need to prove to myself that I can do this.. so I that I'll have the strength to protect my friends and family. In the end it will all be worth it!
Olga Flow: And what if it isn't?
Echo: ...I..
Olga Flow: What if it isn't worth it? Your dreams are just that. Dreams. This serves no purpose. It is a selfish act and the fact of the matter is that you aren't there for the people that need you. You've let them down time and time again all in the pursuit of a childish dream. What if you do become the best hunter? What would that even achieve? You'd have nobody to protect. Everything you've done up til now will have been for nothing.
Echo: ...I don't think that's true.
Olga Flow: See? You aren't even certain. This whole thing is meaningless. Just like you. The truth is that they don't need you. They've been doing fine without you the whole time. In fact.. they would be better off without you. You don't deserve to exist. Your miserable and pathetic life will end here.
Echo: That isn't true.. My friends love me. Maybe a little too much. You're right that this venture has caused me to cast aside my friends. But even so they're still there for me.. And.. And I feel terrible.. But unless I do this.. I'll always see myself as not good enough... And that's why.. I have to do this. I'll kill you and become the greatest hunter and prove to myself that I am worth it. I am something!
Olga Flow: YOU ARE NOTHING! Now. End this meaningless noise. I will put your childish dreams to rest right here and now. You will die as nothing. And burn forever in hell.
Echo: Oh yeah? Then I'm going to take you WITH ME!
Echo: I'm.. I'm not really sure..
Olga Flow: Is that all you have to say?
Echo: No.. I wanted to become the worlds greatest hunter. I wanted to be the best.
