I suppose you're right.
Though really the names are more like personas. Morrigan Prince isn't exactly Peter Nureyev. He has his own history.

[ghosttownapproach]

then arent they even more real? or less fake at least

i will call you whatever you want to be called and if you want to be different let me know and i will call you that instead

[rosebyanyother]

You know, I'm not really sure.
They're real, but they're also very much a performance.

All the same. I appreciate that very much, Jack. Thank you.

[ghosttownapproach]

so is halloween jack. P)

if i ever go home

if i remember all of this. i may take a different name. or i may not and i may make the name mean something new.

[rosebyanyother]

If you took a new one, do you have any idea of what it might be?

[ghosttownapproach]

i dont know

i think i heard a story once about a little man fighting a giant and winning by throwing a rock at him

whatever his name is that might be nice

if thats how things turn out

I'm sorry to hear that.
And while I realize I had no real choice in the matter, I'm a bit sorry I inadvertently brought up the subject.

Well. He did lie to me about my past. Or, my father's past anyway.

[policier]

Is it not something you wish to discuss? You may tell me if I am speaking out of turn. I will take no offense.

[rosebyanyother]

I can't say I'm terribly fond of the topic.
Though I acknowledge I did bring it up. Not entirely willingly, mind you. But here we are.
Who are you, by the way?

[policier]

Javert. We do not know one another.

If it's any consolation, I don't often speak of my parents either. It's something of a shameful topic.

[rosebyanyother]

No. I suppose we don't.
Peter Nureyev is the name they gave me, though it's not the one I use now. I go by Morrigan Prince. Pleasure to make your acquaintance.


Since you showed consideration, I'll do the same and not ask just now. Unless you're willing to speak on it, of course.

[policier]

Both of my parents were convicts. I'm sure you can understand why I don't wish to speak of them.

Would you care, then, if I referred to you as Monsieur Prince?

[rosebyanyother]

Ah, yes. I do understand.
And I would be very grateful if you did, thank you.

[policier]

Very well. I am relieved to hear you say so. Many here are quick to turn to pity when I tell them these things. It's annoying.
