Guess this is a warning, a cautionary tale about keeping your fantasy life firmly where it belongs...
Nicely told tale of an ordinary teenage girl who makes much of seeming unpopularity, lets it get to her, and seeks refuge in online gaming... until somehow she discovers the ability to turn into her character complete with the complete lack of moral compass common to many RPG characters. Well, I mean, we mostly do not do the things our characters get up to in the real world.
Then she meets with the chief bully...
And her best friend, also a gamer, has to make a choice about what to do.
Quite a thought-provoking tale.
