Do your characters voice their thoughts out loud (when you're in solo threads, not with other players/NPCs)? Do they 'talk' to their non-sentient pets sometimes, often, or not at all?

I personally always talk to myself out loud. Even in public. So it would be hard for me to write a character who just...kept their thoughts inside. It would make me feel claustrophobic with all those thoughts bouncing around with no way to escape and travel into the world to ferment into reality.
Beside from that, it’s a sign of intelligence (that is not required for one to be intelligent), and all of my characters are sorta geniuses who are socially different so it fits the bill. And, even more basic, it makes explaining their thought processes even easier when they are typed out in a dialogue format. In fact, all thought processes for Riku and his creatures used to be entirely dialogue because I couldn’t comprehend another way to do it.
Excellent question, Silver. :)
