nomenclature, identity
It just dawned on me that for months or years now I've been getting by without a real online moniker.
My legal first name is Nick, for what it's worth. Many of you probably know that. I'm OK with it. Peg calls me that. It's... fine, though it's less fine here than it is in RL, and NOT fine in non-secure places like Twitter.
I used to be Kincaid. But I retired her so long ago and have so many bad associations with her -- and social anxieties about the swath of rhetorical destruction I left as her. I *kinda* miss that Big Lavavixen Energy? But I can't do business under that name anymore, I just can't.
The zebra character is named Valis, after the Divine Space Laser from Philip K Dick's legendary schizoprophetic episode. Most of you probably didn't even know that. He hasn't had a proper RP forum to exist on in like 10+ years. Valis ain't my name, either.
The Martian Tigress is "Rezeya," of course. I would be tickled red-and-black (the canonical Martian regalia) if you called me Rez or Rezy. But nobody does, not even me. *shrug*
"Zebratron" is meh. It's not a name, it's a weak joke. I've gotten "Z84" a couple of times and it does amuse me, though I feel like I am biting a certain humble and lovable robot projectionist boy's style there. (My friend ZX3.) <3
I dunno. Actually, it kinda feels really appropriate for 2021 (or Month 15 of 2020) to not have a name anymore. Whatever. I miss even feeling like one person, let alone dozens.

@KinkyTurtle And it only took like TEN YEARS of knowing you to finally figure out what it referred to. :D And I always just figured KT was a hereditary title, like the Prince of Wales or Dread Pirate Roberts or Cher. <3

*giggles, thinking of comments from people confused by the Wiki_TMNT account's "Communes of the Cher Department" tweet*

Ya know, "the kinky turtle" ain't strictly a name either.
