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!

Oh.

[It's... ridiculous, probably, the sheer amount of power Asriel's name has over them. She mentions him, and the wretched, awful forced honesty that this place is putting everyone through slams into their chest, burrows and clamps and squeezes out an answer, even if they'd rather dismiss it with cold silence.]

What did you talk about?

[They shouldn't care. He can take care of himself. He probably apologized and cried and made friends, and now she loves him, and everyone's happy. Who cares?]

I'm - I'm really -

[It's obvious how reluctantly it comes out, each word clearly being forced out by a losing battle between their own stubborn steely wall and the truth Wonderland is bent on setting free.]

I'm so worried about him. I don't think he's... coping. Very well. At all.

M-Me either.

[It feels... weird, to be on any kind of level with Chara, especially one concerning Asriel. Is she allowed to be concerned about him? Is she allowed to even care, after it was her fault?]

He just, uhm-- I guess Sans told him he was here before. And he wanted to know about it, uh, what I knew, and what other people did. But... I d-don't know. I felt bad keeping it from him, but it's hard to say how he's actually doing with it? Or if, uhm... he's doing anything at all.

It's like this every time.

[And isn't it hilarious that they can even say "every time?" A real revolving door of Asriels! Don't think too hard about which one even belongs to the same world as you, which one you aren't a stranger to because his Chara has freckles or is taller or actually controls fire effortlessly!]

He's... himself, again. He has the compassion he wished for. He has the friend he always wished he had. He can be with his parents again. But he never... he isn't coping. He doesn't move forward at all. It's never a second chance for him.

...Usually, he's scared of me.

[She really doesn't know if she's allowed to be the one having this conversation. As the person who caused part of this heartache, as the monster who ruined him, does she get any say in his future?]

I mean, it's... how do you d-deal with something like that, you know? How can you be ok with it happening and then not anymore?

[She fidgets, not really sure how to phrase this.]

When you carry something like that for so long, and then it's just done... y-you don't want to bring people you love back there. You just want it never to have happened.

...Happiness always used to be so effortless for him.

[It came so easily, over the smallest things. Snails. Some stupid made-up thing Chara said. A hug from his Dad. Before Chara's intervention, everything Wonderland offers him is everything he'd always needed to be content.]

Until I took everything away from him. The things he wanted more than anything, and he can't find joy in them, and it's all... I keep looking at him and thinking it's my fault. It's all because of what I did to him.

[It's humiliating to admit this. It's humiliating to admit this to her. She's probably going to roll her eyes. Oh, like you're the one who has guilt, Chara? How selfish are you, if you're making his pain all about you? Gross. Disgusting. No wonder he didn't want you to be in anyone's happily ever after, if that's the kind of attitude you've got.]

[Alphys doesn't know how to look at Chara, when they admit this. This sort of thing that's always felt- well, of course it's personal, it's family. It's messy. It's feeling like you are always the invader even in your own story, home, accomplishments. Feeling like you'll never truly belong.]

You didn't-- you didn't d-do it. Tragedy isn't always your fault just because... you were there. I know it's hard to uhm, know that, s-sometimes, when it's about you, because I don't believe it about myself either. But I hope you can.

[It's something she'd like to believe for herself. But she doesn't. She pauses for a second to collect her thoughts,
but still starts talking sooner than she'd like.]


It's... I mean, it's easy to blame yourself and feel bad about it and then let that stop you from doing anything. And, uh, if you don't have... I mean, if you d-don't have closure, it's hard to help other people, too. It's okay you... you feel like that. Even if you shouldn't be so hard on yourself.

...Is it okay...?

[What are they doing, asking her of all people? It was effortless for her. One date with some pretty girl, and she's totally able to purge all her mistakes. It works out flawlessly. She's totally forgiven. Nobody's hurt or resentful. She gets a big, loving hug from her boss. She's had some kind of talk with Asriel here, and they probably cried and hugged and everyone's perfectly happy with each other.

(Why didn't Asriel tell them he went to see Alphys?)

They slouch down a fraction lower in their chair, before catching themselves and forcing their posture back to its board-straight default. Sulk in your head. Keep your body out of it. Sit up properly, keep your face polite.]


If the people who you hurt are never going to get over what you did, then why should you get to? How is it fair to make him watch me be perfectly happy here, while he's still miserable? I can't say that I'm remorseful at all if I'm just going to move on and leave him behind in the dark.

[They were always inseparable. They trusted him with their SOUL, and nobody else. They wanted their fate to be intertwined with his forever. Is there any justice at all, then, in flourishing here while he's still trapped in stasis?]

[Oh, if only she was so lucky for it to have been that easy. Other people forgiving her, sure. But her forgiving herself? Never so simple.]

I... I have a hard time with that, too.

[She doesn't even really know what to say here. In her time in the Mansion, a number of people have consoled her on this, on her actions. What have they said? What did they do to make her believe it?]

You can't... you can't change what happened. But if you don't move, uhm, p-past it, you'll never get the chance to do anything else. It doesn't have to define you.

[This feels fake, somehow, and Wonderland knots the less than beautiful truth from her.]

I know it feels that way. Like one thing you do defines you forever and you can't ever do better because you're just faking to cover the bad things you did, even if-- e-even if everyone else is just okay, for some reason, or they're just telling you that because there's nothing you can do to ever fix it so you just... have to.

[Alphys sighs, finally looking towards them. They're so rigid. She's so enclosed. They both have their ways of hiding their soft spots.]

I... I have to. There's only moving forward. I can't s-stay in one spot forever. Neither can he.
