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!

( Peter lets out a soft sound at that though he doesn't meet her gaze as she looks away. he walks beside her, quietly, no judgement. it's not like he has any right to be )

The police like to shoot at me back home. I was wanted for vigilantism.

I guess that's a thing. I think we should be judged more by our actions and the context of those actions. Can't always trust authority to do what's right. But also, I was a vigilante so I guess they got it right.

I guess that makes two of us.

[Daisy looked at him from the corner of her eye, feeling a little less worked up than she had been a few minutes ago. As much as she wished no one had to go through this right now, Daisy was relieved to not be the only one. To have people she could relate to.]

Maybe I should've taken a page from your book and used a mask too.

Not a fun thing to be able to relate to, huh? ( He tilts his head a bit, glancing over at her. ) ...why didn't you use a mask?

( Peter can only imagine never using one if he had nothing to go home to- no one left of his own to protect. )

[morethan084]

Not really.

[Daisy smiled sadly at him as she reached up to push her hair out of her face.]

Before everything went to shit for me, I didn't see the point. Plus, doesn't it get in your field of vision?

[saved]

( Peter sends her a sad smile back, shoving his hands into his pockets. )

Uh, no, but that's part of the whole spider-senses thing even if I don't see something. I can hear or feel or sense everything around me. I just got told pretty quick that the people I cared about would be in danger because of what I was doing so seemed like if I kept it a secret, maybe that would make it safer for them.

[morethan084]

[When he put it like that, it made a lot of sense.]

Did it help at all?

[saved]

( Peter tilts his head to the side after a moment. )

I don't know. I was still pretty new to all this back there, and someone like told me that as he was dying after he found out the truth about who I was and put himself- put himself in danger to save me.

( and now Gwen doesn't have her dad, her brothers don't- )

But uh, no one's come after my aunt yet so that's good.

[morethan084]

[Daisy knew better than to keep pushing him for more information. Which is why she dropped as soon as he mentioned how his uncle had died.]

Look, um, I should-

[She's getting more overwhelmed the longer they talked about death, even if she was partially to blame for that conversation to begin with.]

I'm going to head out. Sorry, I just need to get out of here.

[And go to the bar.]

[saved]

( Peter lifts his head at her words and then shakes his head reassuringly. )

It's okay.

I got this.

( There's no- There's no judgement. Peter just steps back, letting her pass. )

[morethan084]

[Yeah she's about two seconds away from crying, as it is she ducks her head so he can't see her face fully as she walks past him.]

I'll see you around.
