So I've got this concept I'm working on for NB 167, and I'd love people's opinions on it.
Amandine and Emily are two personalities living in one body. Amandine is the original and dominant personality, and Emily first appeared when she was 4 years old. It's called Dissociative Identity Disorder, but her's works a little differently than most. Unlike with many cases where the personalities aren't aware of each other, Amandine and Emily can talk with each other, and can even meet in their head in a place they call their mind Meadow.
Amandine's a nice girl, she sweet and charismatic, a charmer like her dad, but she also gets overwhelms easily. Even if she doesn't show it. Much like her dad, she has a talent for magic and uses silly pranks to show her affections. Things that don't make sense like leaving hoards of tiny camels all over your house or taping pictures of Nick Cage over all your pictures. Never really anything that can hurt. She can be a worrier, but she does it all internally while talking to Emily, so it doesn't show on the outside. This leads to her biggest weakness, she internalizes almost all of her problems, mostly due to Emily's presence.
Emily is not a nice girl, she's mean spirited and upset most of the time. She lacks any form of natural empathy, and for the most part isn't fond of anyone. With those select few she would never admit she cares about them, but she will watch out for their physical and emotional health. To her, this means severely damaging anyone who causes them harm, particularly Amandine. It's surprising how much damage a 6 year old can cause with the right inclination and know-how. Know-how Amandine isn't sure how the other got.
Amandine and Emily like each other, or at least Amandine like Emily. They can both see/hear/feel/taste/smell things at the same time but only one of them can be control their body at the time with the other only really able to comment on things. However, they don't have to both be sensing things. When one of them wants to rest, she'll retreat to their mind meadow where they can no longer sense anything happening to their body beside's major pain.
When in their mind meadow they can 'see' each other, they're identical expect for their eyes, Emily has red eyes or a red dot on her head if she has her eyes closed.
Does anyone have an suggestions or comments?
Also, I set up an ask account for the two of them, so if you'd like to go send them some questions that'd be awesome!
