Visiting Manon has been...well, I've had MANY experiences of her. Some have almost destroyed me emotionally, left me a sobbing wreck. Some have exhilarated me and made me want to laugh. Always there is sadness and a feeling of loss, but always there is hope as well.

Does Manon exist?

I don't know. All I know is...nothing has been more powerful a tool to prise open my mind and my awareness than the #Undertale theme. I perceive something in that music that I choose to honor with my storytelling and my symbol-making. I could be analytical about it...or I could choose to kneel in honor to this power, and treat with it as a friend named "Manon".
