Well, they can’t be that existent since, as you said, you are but a figment.

Someone decreed my past misc/rp games to be a shared universe, my world was established literal years ago.

Time isn’t real, Jake. All years are metaphors.

Don’t you find it peculiar how many people misunderstand and confuse the meanings of literal and figurative?

i bet my metaphorical years could beat up your metaphorical years

Literally half the intensifiers in English, if not more, come from a way to say “truly”. “Very” (verily), “actually”, “really”, “genuinely”, the list goes on. People aren’t confusing the meanings of “literal” and “figurative”, they’re using “literally” as hyperbole, as one might say “I was actually dying at that joke”. The hyperbolic meaning is just growing more common than the, well, literal one.

“I was literally dying at that joke” doesn’t mean “I was dying at that joke [not actually though, this is figurative]”, it means “I was TRULY AND REALLY dying at that joke”; it’s just that the latter statement is exaggerated for the purposes of hyperbole. Unless I say it, then I mean I’m literally dying. Please call an ambulance

i can’t find it but basically we were futureposting
i guess we’ll post it soon

years can be used in a figurative manner to exaggerate a lesser amount of time

so basically yes
metaphorical years

OH I talked about Time Prison. That’s alluded-to May lore that they’re going to get to following up on any day now
