Re: What Mandela effects do you suffer from?
(Anonymous) 2025-01-03 01:07 am (UTC)(link)The probable explanation is that it was an actual scene in another book I read and I mixed it up as being in Percy Jackson, but I could still swear at the time I was reading it made me hate the ending. The alleged scene involved gnomes and a stop at a gas station where they confirmed that if you got turned to stone, you weren't dead, you were still alive just unable to do anything forever because you were stone.
Re: What Mandela effects do you suffer from?
(Anonymous) 2025-01-03 05:42 am (UTC)(link)What you're describing reminds me of something that happened to me. I was beta reading a fanfic for a close friend, and the way she described a hanging, I felt like I had to warn her that an American audience would probably interpret what she was saying backwards, compared to what she wanted inferred about it. As I was trying to explain to her why cooperating with being executed wasn't interpreted as bravery or self-discipline here, anymore, (and could also look like the character's spirit had just been completely broken), I realized I'd added a whole scene in my memory to Orwell's 1984 that the book doesn't actually have. With Winston publicly recanting and then being executed offscreen. :/
