My characters are independent and sentient beings.
The fact that they only exist as mirror-neuron generated simulations in a virtual reality in my head has absolutely no bearing on that fact. I have an entire neurological architecture that's designed to do *just that,* and since I'm trying to create the illusion in the reader that they are independent and sentient beings, by triggering that same neurological architecture in them, I'm not sure why it should be a problem?
