Yep, Slaymesoftly mentioned your post, which is how I came to realize that you weren't on my reading list by some oversight.
Yeah, I was totally in awe of the Dollhouse look at identity through a dozen facets. What am I today? Perfect date, mother, bride, daughter, student, ninja, Senator? All of those? None? In a way, it's what all creative people (actors and writers particularly) strive to be and understand. A truly integrated person is rare, I think, so what happens when part of your "self" goes away?
Anyway, I think you should write the amnesia fic you want to read. I'd want to read it too!
