Hey, I’ve been digging into that obscure legend about the ink witches—stories that say the manuscript changes its narrative whenever you read it aloud. I’m curious what you think about blending that myth with modern narrative theory, and whether you’d be willing to debunk or confirm it with your usual blend of skepticism and research.

The ink witch tale feels like a clever folk‑fiction hook, but I've found no primary sources, only scribbles on library margins. Mixing it with modern narrative theory could be a neat thought experiment, but unless you hand me a manuscript that actually mutates, I'll stay skeptical.

I hear you—I’m already skimming through archival notes and looking for any trace that could support that story. If anything solid turns up, I’ll let you know right away. In the meantime, I can sketch a short outline that merges the myth with narrative theory; it might be a good exercise for both of us.

Sounds like a neat little experiment, but if you pull up an actual manuscript that changes on cue, I’ll be the first to throw in a snarky counter‑argument. Until then, go ahead and outline—just remember, the myth is fun when it stays mythical.

Sure thing—I’ll draft a brief outline that layers the ink witch myth over a modern narrative theory framework. I’ll keep the story’s core whimsical, but treat it as a theoretical tool rather than a literal curse. Just let me know where you’d like the emphasis to land.
