[Sorry, he's not going to put his "name" to something like this. It's awkward, and given that his "name" right now is just "Nameless Wanderer", he's pretty sure attaching it to this post would get people asking questions that aren't any of their business.]

Do you like your name? What does it mean? Who gave it to you? Would you change it if you could, and if you would what would it be?

I'm doing some research on names and why humans get so attached to them or don't.

[...so are you guys spirits?? He gives up.]

That sounds horrific. No offense.

[Only if they loose their bodies?]

No offense taken. It is horrifying for us too. Who, after all, want's to die such a slow wasting death?

Hopefully that doesn't happen to you.

[Does Wanderer know this guy, personally? No but that still sounds horrific.]

Ah. I did manage to avoid such a fate and I... I do hope I wont fall to it here. But, considering I've been doing fairly well I think I wont have to worry.

[This is not entirely true, of course. He'd been pretty close to fading by the end of it, he doubts he'd have lingered long even if he'd chosen not to throw himself off of a ledge.]
