I don't have any totally imaginary friends, but I do have a lot of "Scrubs" moments, wherein I imagine my friends doing really awesome stuff with me. It usually involves a musical number.
I have imaginary friends. He has no name, but he is with me, when I need him and listening to me and it's really helps me. Beacuse I don't feel good with talking about all my problems to my real friends. I don't want to make them sad and worry about me, so almost always I'm saying nothing.
Heh. I've done that. And then wonder why my friends don't remember that conversation. But, I've had a few imaginary friends, especially when I was under 10. Now, I usually talk to whatever characters I'm writing in my story. They sometimes help me figure out the plot that way.
Imagination--in any capacity--is not without help from art. After all, art is expression and it comes from the mind/imagination. A while back I linked a bunch of images that helped me imagine things in my writing. Each one for a different idea or concept, but they were all inspirational to forming something out of *my* imagination.
When I was little, I was a very awkward child. My parents kept be very sheltered, so when I first went to school, I didn't know how to act around the other kids, so they made fun of me. That was when I made up my imaginary friend. She was a unicorn named Magic, and when all the kids in my class would make fun of me, I'd always ride on Magic away to some different place and have lots of adventures there with her. She was my best and only friend. I remember at one time in 3rd grade, the girls were throwing rocks at me at recess, so I "rode" Magic away from my school and went down and hung out in the parking lot of McDonalds for 2 hours xD The school called the police and everything. I got in a lot of trouble, and they didn't believe me when I said the girls were throwing rocks at me. But anyway, as I grew up I matured and learned how to, I guess, blend in with society norms, so I wasn't ostracized anymore and Magic just kind of faded away...
the ponies in my head are my dearest friends and they tell me things!!!!! Things that are so pony I'll ponzzzzz you!
Never had. Never felt the need to, nor to imagine scenarios. Unless I was day dreaming, imagining a conversation, night dreaming, or creating any kind of art. Or in the shower, for what it matters :derpe: Worries not, for Rainbow Dash is awesome, and there's nothing bad at talking to her or let her try type at your keyboard :derpe: That's... Interesting. Technically I already know the entire plot of my own, but writing it down is kind of hard... Making up all the details. I'll try that the next time I open Microsoft Word :Boo: You should totally summon a MLP version of her and talk to her one last time and thank her and all of that. It would be awesome!
I never had an imaginary friend. But I've always had an incredible imagination. I can get lost in my mind for hours and not even know time passed.
