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

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!

( she doesn't believe that he'd be able to see it if it wasn't there. buried perhaps, with the trauma and the injury. her attention focuses on that spot, considering the damage that could be underneath depending on what exactly had caused it. it could easily have affected his memory, but it also may not have )

Is it worth what will happen?

( there are things that helen would love to see again, happy moments and people that she has lost but knowing the acts that follow--

he was afraid of what it would do to him, of what it did before. is he really prepared to repeat it? )

I can't stop what happens. It happens.

[That's the part that's scarred over. Seeing his family, happy, trusting, with him...that was the new wound.]

Can't make me worse than I already am.

Are you willing to test that? To go through this again just to see?

( she turns her gaze from frank to those that he's with )

Take this moment with you. Leave before you have to find out.

Yes.

[He meant no, but the word slipped out, in spite of himself. His brow furrows, because he knows she's right, he knows she's onto something. It's logical. It makes sense. But there's another part of him that wants to argue, wants to stay, inertia and pain.

He's not sure what to say, so he does the best he can, reaching out a hand to her, for an anchor. ]

( the hand is all that helen needs, and she doesn't hesitate to reach out, taking it )

Come with me.

( there's a gentle motion, almost a pull on his hand to urge him along. it's difficult, she knows, but he's not alone )

[The hand is an anchor, something to hold onto with his mind, more than something he counts on actually being able to pull his weight. It's a gesture from someone who doesn't have to do or say anything to help. That means something, and it gives him something that pulls him apart from the memory loop.

He takes the hand, nodding, and the memory shimmers for a moment, like a ripple on water, as he follows her lead.]
