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!

Oh. [ He's clearly indicating his heart, right? So he does have some feelings for this Julie person. ] Wow, that's... like something from a movie, honestly. "Girl falls in love with zombie." Or the other way around.

[ Like Beauty and the Beast, but with 100% more zombie. ]

Why wasn't she afraid? Seems like common sense. [ beat ] No offense.

[Don't even start, he knows just how cheesy it sounds. He looks down at his feet with a small, awkward smile and shrugs one of his shoulders.]

I... e-earned her t-trust.

[That was it, wasn't it? He saved her, he didn't eat her, he kept her safe and made sure she had enough to eat. He showed her that inside his head there was a real person, with real thoughts.]

She... didn't know the Dead... c-could be like me.

Huh. [ That'd take a while, she imagines... but, here she is, talking to R herself. It's a little different, considering - well, Wonderland, but it isn't so different that she can't imagine it. ]

Are you the only one like this? You said you had a friend, so... is he also, like - a peaceful zombie?

[ Or whatever you want to call it? ]

M's... [A sigh. R shifts awkwardly.] M... thinks I'm weird.

[Most other zombies think that R is weird. Most of them don't have the drive that he has - that spark in him that's keeping him as close to life as he can get.]

But... he's not bad. He helped us e-...escape... when I took Julie... h-home.

So, he's a good zombie. [ Ellie decides, nodding in response. ] Cool. M'glad you're not the only one.

[ That... seems like it'd get pretty lonely.

There's a long pause. ]


Do you wish Julie was here? In Wonderland?

['Good' might be stretching it, but M's... alright. He's still got some brains that work, unlike a lot of them.

Ellie asks that question and the look he gives her is an odd one - not dangerous, but just a little sad.
]

... Yeah.

[He wouldn't have lied about that, even if he could.]

I miss her.

[personal profile] backpacking 2018-01-12 03:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I get it. [ It makes her think of Riley, of course. ] But... maybe she'll show up one day. You never know what's going to happen in this place, right?

[ That's basic Wonderland understanding, that just about anything could happen at any time. There's reason for hope. ]

[He smiles a little bit. Imagining Julie here... he's sure she'd hate it, but he wonders what she'd think of how he's been getting on while he's been here.

But then... he shrugs. A small frown replaces the smile.
]

Don't know... if she'd w-... want to see me.
backpacking: (of recovering)

[personal profile] backpacking 2018-01-23 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Why? Sounds like you were close.

[ He's got feelings for her, anyway. Maybe she feels the same way? ]

You said you didn't hurt her or anything, right?
keephersafe: (51)

[personal profile] keephersafe 2018-01-26 10:15 am (UTC)(link)
No.

[The answer comes immediately and he look at her as if he can't believe she'd even suggest something like that.]

I was taking her... home. It rained... so we stopped. She took the car. [A shrug.] Left me there.
backpacking: (laying across from me)

[personal profile] backpacking 2018-01-30 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
She left you? [ Ellie wrinkles her nose, looking confused. ] ... Why?

[ Had she missed something? It didn't seem like R had done anything to drive her off... but, it might just be a cautious move on the girl's part. He is a zombie, after all, however kind and different. ]
keephersafe: (66)

[personal profile] keephersafe 2018-02-03 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I...

[--don't know, he nearly says, but stops himself. He remembers the way she talked about her father, the way that the Living, in general, behaved towards the dead.

R comes to a sudden revelation that resolves the dull ache that's been lodged under his unbeating heart for the last several months, planting a wistful warmth in its place.
]

To... to keep me... safe.
backpacking: (Default)

[personal profile] backpacking 2018-02-13 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
To keep you safe from people who'd go after a zombie? [ It's funny, sort of, because you'd think it'd be the other way around. That he'd have left her side to keep her safe.

This Julie person must be pretty cool, Ellie thinks. ]


Huh. ... I bet she didn't want to leave, though.
keephersafe: (56)

[personal profile] keephersafe 2018-02-13 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[A small nod.

He was taking her home, and he would have probably followed her inside if she'd let him. She'd left him before they'd got close enough for him to be spotted, and was probably just trusting they'd let her in rather than shoot her on sight.

Him, though? There was little to do about him.
]

Don't... know. Can't follow her.
backpacking: (laying across from me)

[personal profile] backpacking 2018-02-21 04:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I bet she'll be back. [ She responds with that pretty quickly, and it's because she's thinking of Riley, who had left Ellie herself and then, eventually, returned.

Ellie shrugs. ]


Even if it sucks for now, I think you'll see her again.
