Dropping into character, I learn things from them.
A couple weeks back, I put on some headphones with a character playmix on it. It was Areli. I sank into her, skulking down the subway. People uneasily slinked out of my way.
I can get advice. it ranges from "life's short - pursue your sexual interests" to "you are a lightweight, Vase has a drinking problem. Not a good mix."
I don't know if I'd like to be Areli or Vase. Not often anyways.
But two nights ago, I asked
"So, what would I do if I were that version of myself that I feel drawn to?"
I listen to that, to her.
Now? Bitch is trying to get me killed. Or change me for my own health. Whichever.
