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!

[It will be The Worst. Two hardened marines who wanna blaze through shit with guns and get results. But that's protagonist syndrome for you.

Regardless, she rolls her eyes in response.]


At this point, it's hardly even anything new. You think you're the first person not to trust my intel? I'm just damn sick of it by now. People back home didn't listen to me and then came begging for my ass in prison to save them from an interstellar war. You're just the newest in a line of many.

One key difference: I ain't going to beg for your ass.

[No way, no how, in no context whatsoever.]

Look, all I'm saying is as fucked up as this place is, how's anyone supposed to trust anything? Maybe the longer you stay here, the more this place gets to you and you stop fighting it. You know, like goddam Lima Syndrome but with more mindfucking.

Thank fuck you won't, because I don't know if I'd help you.

[It's not a lie, because she will entertain the possibility of not helping him. Unfortunately, she's kind of the hero type, meaning she probably would anyway. But he's at least pissed her off enough to make her consider it.]

And listen, I have the same concept where I come from. It's called indoctrination, and trust me, I've thought of it.

[It was, in fact, her first worry when she got here.]

But we have documented evidence of the memory loss process, and what that means. Blind trust isn't great, but this information is public knowledge with a little reading.

Some shitty military you come from.

[He had guys he hated, but they were still soldiers. You got their asses out of trouble, whether they asked or not.]

I'm sure there's a lot of shit out there for a little reading. Some of it patent goddam bullshit.
normandysbest: (« [Annoyed] I will kick your goddamn ass)

[personal profile] normandysbest 2017-11-29 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
Last I checked, you weren't my military. And saboteurs don't tend to get an evac.

[Especially when it puts her life, and innocent's lives, on the line.]

If you're given a mission briefing, you should read it. If you wanna be part of the solution here, figure out what went down before you.

Never been happier to not be from your world.

[Joint service was a thing. As were covert ops. As was hanging your own ass out in a sling to get back one of your guys.]

If five years of random conversations about shit counts as a mission 'brief' where you're from, you got more paperwork problems than I ever did.
normandysbest: (« [Unsure] what the shit are you saying)

[personal profile] normandysbest 2017-12-07 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Good.

[She laughs at the last part, though, because holy shit.]

Dude, if I got five minute's worth of conversation I'd be glad. I've run ground time without knowing a damn thing. I know that's unreasonable for a lot of people, but you should take all the information you can possibly get.

[personal profile] scoutsniper 2017-12-11 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Damn right that's unreasonable. If you don't have recon, you don't fucking go in.

[Basic operations where he's from. They'd build scale models of any place they were assaulting, drill it for at least a day.]

Point is, I don't think it's too damn much to ask to get information fast and neat. You know. A report.
normandysbest: (« [Look] What the heckie)

[personal profile] normandysbest 2017-12-14 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately, it's too much to ask here. This place is trying to kill us. Sometimes you just can't make it fit protocol. You just go as hard as you can to protect the people that shouldn't be there.

[At least they're not... yelling at each other, right now. That's progress, right?]

[personal profile] scoutsniper 2017-12-15 01:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Nah, it makes sense.

A place where you could probably pull a tactical nuke out of a closet; gotta have some way to prevent organized action.

Like making information a goddam clusterfuck.

[personal profile] normandysbest 2017-12-20 06:27 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. It’s hard to determine this place’s motivations, but overall it mostly just wants to keep us here. Hindering escape in any way is only beneficial.

[Not to them, of course.]

The rotating door of people makes organizing anything long-term complicated, too. So few make it over the 2 or 3 year mark, and there’s no clear line of succession or warning that someone could be going out.
