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!

I'm not convinced that that's actually going to work as well as you think, but I like the idea enough to go along with it and see if we can force it to function at least partially -- come on, I don't even sound like that, this is so dumb.

[God, maybe this truly kinda is what being Peridot is like. It's starting to feel humiliating. Still, on the bright side, embarrassing and uncomfortable though this is, it really is nothing worse than those, is it? Whatever the phrasing, the point remains that Peridot is right: being a supportive friend simply means sometimes having the decency to ignore stupid things the other person says, especially in extenuating circumstances. They already know that. Lapis sighs.]

What I'm saying is let's try it. You're seriously lucky this makes so little difference for you.

It's not that dumb. [Peridot sulks a little bit, which is where some of the honesty leaks out unencumbered by her need to please Lapis and agree with her on everything. But that's as far as she gets before her self-delusion takes over and she sees a compliment where there probably isn't one.]

Wow thanks. It's nice to be unaffected for once. I can take care of everything, so you don't have to do anything but wait this out! I just need to get some supplies first...
ssmisery: (is this for rill)

Can you? [Since it's honest, that's not a rhetorical question, but fortunately she brushes on past it anyway.] Either way, I'm -- really glad you're handling this. I don't like needing help, but this would be so much worse if you weren't making sure I don't have to take it seriously.

[The positive things are of course all forthright too. Lapis is almost getting used to the awkward sensation of logorrhea, and she hardly even bats an eye at herself this time. In its own way, saying that feels as weird as everything else, and that in itself seems somehow off, but that's just how today is going to be.]

There's no way I'm going to be any help with supplies, so should I just go ahead and jump out a window?

[On the positive side, it absolutely delights Peridot who seems to be benefiting from this event now, instead of simply suffering from it. She gets to go camping with her bestie! They get to ignore everyone else's truth drama! They get to avoid the darkest corners of their minds hiding in their rooms! What could go wrong.]

Good idea. It might make you feel better! [What? Lapis loves flying. Flying surely will do wonders for her right now.] I'll meet you at the edge of the forest when I get everything.

Hey, at least if I just spend the whole event flying, there are only a couple people I can run into. [...It's not sarcasm because the statement is true, but Lapis seems to have achieved some sort of dryness anyway. She's working hard.] No, I'll find a spot. Somewhere far away from everyone. I'm probably good at that.
