It may very well be the worst thing that's ever happened to you! | OPEN MINGLE

Who: EVERYONE!
Where: EVERYWHERE!
When: Friday October 27th - Tuesday October 31st
Rating: PG-13, warn if you're gonna go higher!
Summary: A catch all for the Horrible Memory Truth Event!
The Story:

For the duration of this event, everyone's entire room will be replaced with a memory playing on loop. They will likely recognize the moment as soon as they see it – it is a moment they remember as the worst moment of their entire lives. It could be a memory from home or something that happened in Wonderland. Lengths of the memories will vary, but they will find that these are not memories they can merely watch – they can step into these memories and attempt to make changes to them, and the memories will be long enough that they have time to make changes (though no more than 24 hours). However, anyone who tries will find that it is futile. No matter what you do or how hard you try, the outcome is always exactly the same somehow. No changes you make will prevent that horrible outcome. It just happens over and over and over again no matter what you do.

On top of that, perhaps complicating any attempts to make changes, everyone will be forced to be honest for the duration of the event. No lies or half-truths are allowed, and filters will be gone for the entire five days. If something bothers someone then they will blurt it out, regardless of whether or not it hurts someone's feelings, and no one will be able to simply keep quiet when they have something to say. They must be truthful and honest with every word they say.

This is a catch-all log for all of your Worst Memory needs! Please mark your threads clearly in the subject line with your character's name and Room Number + Floor for character rooms, or just location if you're making a top level for a public place in the mansion (like the tea rooms or the kitchen) so people can see if there's already a thread available. And here's the plot post if you need it!

Have fun!

[Rick keeps the door locked. He's Rick. He has memories of losing limbs, getting torn to pieces, watching planets explode. All kinds of memories of bad shit that happened to him. Which would make sense. He's Rick, and inherently selfish.]

[He doesn't need people to know that his apparent worst memory is something that happened to someone else.]

[He's at a wedding. Clearly it's an alien wedding on an alien planet--the people getting married are a human girl and an older man who appears to be part human, part bird. One might call him a "birdperson."]

[It's a beautiful wedding, like most weddings. Everyone is happy, but Rick is clearly uncomfortable, up till the point he stands up and clinks his fork against his glass. He has a speech prepared, it seems. But he quickly goes for the more tropey route, crumpling up his speech notes and tossing them aside. He gives a short, off-the-cuff speech about trust and family and love, and about how he doesn't trust any of those things, but that clearly they are things that other people trusts. His friend, Birdperson, is in love with this human girl, Tammy. And he wishes them well.]

[And he thinks about how maybe he can do better himself. Like maybe he can figure out how to trust this stuff too.]

[And then Tammy pulls out a gun.]

[She's a government operative for the Intergalactic Federation, and half the guests at this wedding--Birdperson and Rick included--are wanted terrorists. Birdperson looks at her, heartbroken. He asks her what's happening. He asks her why. She tells him to sit down, and he doesn't.]

[So she shoots him. He falls to the ground, dead. And Rick just screams.]

[It's a bloodbath after that. People whipping out guns, government agents exploding through the windows. Rick loses his portal gun, setting it to explode and kill as many Federation lackeys as he can. Then he grabs Morty and his family, steals a spaceship, and they get out unscathed. They're fine. None of them are hurt.]

[But he tells them they can't go home. The Federation will hunt them all down just to get to Rick. Summer starts crying.]

[Rick says he'll never make the mistake of trusting people ever again.]

[Because the thing is, he didn't know. He had no idea. He didn't see any of this coming. He's the smartest man in the universe, and he didn't realize that Tammy was an agent. He didn't see that the whole thing was a set-up. It was all right beneath his nose. And he was actually ready to start trusting things, opening himself up. He wasn't lying about that part.]

[And now his best friend is dead, his portal gun is gone, he's on the run, and his whole family has been dragged into his bullshit.]

[He tries to play it off. It's fine, it'll be fine. They can find a new planet. Earth sucks anyway. Who needs it? It's not a big deal.]

[Not a big deal at all.]
