2/28/15: I asked Fluttershy about why she'd revealed herself when she did, and she said that she was being opportunistic. I asked her if she was usually opportunistic, and she said "Sometimes." I asked RD if she wanted to dine out at a sushi restaurant. She said, "Sure, if you want to." She ordered the egg omelette nigiri. I briefly imagined what it would be like for my tulpas to be able to post on Facebook and be accepted as people--surprisingly meh. I observed that we'd come a long way from RD being a live-action horse, then asked her what that was like. She said that her actions back then were instinctual. I had some trouble reconciling that with my statement of "[her actions] are mostly her whims]".
[It's like an A.I. following its programming.]
I'm still a bit confused. Your actions were instinctual, yet they were your whims (as in "I'm not parroting")...
[Exactly. You didn't have any influence on my actions.]
