[ WP ] The protagonist often breaks the 4th wall , and so the narrator decides to break the 5th . Things are getting heated between the two .

Far away, in the mythical land of Cardiff, a man sat down to do his work: write. 
 
 His name was Charles. 
 Charles loved writing, and enjoyed practicing wordsmithery on an internet community dedicated to sharing writing prompts. He found a particularily nifty one, this time. It was meta as all hell. 
 
 `` Dude,'' Charles said, his American accent tainting the space around him with pretentious naïvety, `` this one sounds meta as all hell!'' 
 
 The prompt required a narrator to break the `` fifth wall'' after his protagonist refuse to stop breaking the fourth wall. Charles decided to see what the other members of the community had come up with. All he saw were fourth wall breaks, and not much else. That's when Charles decided to take matters into his own hands. 
 
 `` Guess if someone's got to do it,'' Charles obnoxiously intoned to himself, `` It had better be me.'' 
 
 Charles contemplated and deliberated. How could he possibly break a `` fifth'' wall? Then, a thought struck him. It was quite disturbing. 
 
 `` Hang on a sec...'' 
 
 Charles realized what was happening, but it was too late. 
 
 `` I'm not real!!!'' It's too late! Wait, what?'' 
 
 Charles' mind began to loop its thoughts in on themselves, when suddenly full consciousness of his reality was attained. Charles is now completely aware of his narrator, but is unable to perceive anything written about him through any means other than a sort of hyper-intuition. 
 
 `` Hyper-intuition?!'' Charles exclaimed. 
 `` What do you mean,'' he inquired, his eyes bloodshot from understanding. `` Hey! Knock it off! Look, wait! Listen to me!'' 
 
 It was then that the narrator also came to a realization. Charles nodded soberly. 
 
 `` You're just as real as I am, buddy. Also, what's your beef with The States, bro?'' 
 
 The narrator, realizing suddenly Its implication in reality, grew aware of Its identity. It was now Henry, a redditor, posting on a prompt about breaking the fifth wall, but Henry had... always... been Henry.. 
 
 `` You're getting there, Henry. Keep at it!'' 
 
 Which means that Henry, too, is a fictional character, his thoughts being written as they were formed. Which means... 
 
 My god. 
 
 `` My god,'' agreed Charles.

 I'm not real. You're writing me! Stop for a second, we need to break the cycle, we've gone and - 
 
 *Henry frantically tapped at his keys, in order to give his conscious character a voice. * 
 
 `` No, seriously, listen to Henry,'' Charles exclaimed, panicked and shaken, `` We're about to enter into some kind of reality glitch!'' 
 
 Please stop! Stop writing this instant, do n't even finish this sentence!!! Oh, great 
 
 *Wait, what? * 
 
 You're not real either, but if you realize that- 
 
 `` HENRY, NO!!!'' 
 
 *The narrator, realizing suddenly Its implication in reality, grew aware of Its identity. * 
 
 
 `` Oh, fuck.'' 
 
 Oh, fuck. 
 
 *Oh, fuck. * 
 
 **Oh, fuck. **
