[ GM ORP ] The Cabin (WRAPUP P 23!)

[and be blue]

[D3 - Ever]

A memory, in the fog. It was a reward, perhaps, for his efforts at monster hunting, a glimmer of something familiar and strange that made his eyebrows knit in a thoughtful sort of way. He didn't remember his own name, but he remembered someone else. He remembered green eyes and a flash of a grin that made his skin prickle, that made him want to find a quiet place for just the two of them. He remembered laughing, and teasing, and dry sideways comments that weren't quite kind but didn't exactly sting, either.

And with that, he turned in place to search the crowd for the familiar face, pushing his way through fog.

beejoux

you'd enjoy this I thought.

 

[and be blue]

[B6 - Vasily]

It came to his tongue unbidden and without any real explanation: Vasily Markov. It rolled comfortably, familiar, a name that made more sense to him than Florida, that came with a prickling memory of being offered something useful, something new, something with a future that wasn't just scraping by. He chewed on it, said it aloud, brushing fingertips along the edge of his coat, where two crossed scythes settled He knew what that meant, now, and while he didn't remember other things -- where he'd come from, for instance, or who he knew -- at least Vash knew who he was. And why he was here.  

[Zoobey]

As the last few pages were revealed something unusual happened - something just clicked.

Their name. Their true name, they remembered. It was just a word at first, but then it built up in them, a strange, unusual warmth. It felt good, it felt just right, and with it came a voice of someone familiar - who was it - calling out their name. Anticipation. Importance. They were someone.

The fog began to clear a little bit more, revealing distinct shapes in the darkness now, harsh edges of fog and void.

The door, always in the back of their mind, a presence now more than just a door, said something encouraging, and for each it was something a little different, a phrase they felt like they had heard before. It wouldn't be long now.

[ November ] - exploring the fog


He thought he remembered.


FEAR

I won't ever be good enough.

I won't ever be what they want me to be. I'm going to be forced into their boxes, trapped in their definitions, stuck in what they believe they want me to be. I'm never going to be what they want me to be, what they think I am, and I'm going to be stuck like this forever, trapped, forced, suffocated -

It ached in his chest.

Zoobey

hello I am exploring.......

 

[Zoobey]

November - Fog prompt

"Hello," a voice called out from the fog, but there was no body go to with the voice, just white, "Is anyone there?"  

[kuropeco]

He frowned, brows furrowing.

"I'm here," he said without thinking - maybe it was - maybe it was one of the ones that he could think of, one of the faces that had flitted through his mind, the ones he wanted to see again.

"Who's there?"

Zoobey

 

[Zoobey]

There was a flash of something - some sort of indistinct glow, as if someone had pointed a dull light his direction for just a second.

Footsteps, and then a pause.

"Where?" They sounded a little panicked. "It's me. Who are you?"

kuropeco

 

[kuropeco]

His eyes narrowed a little, trying to search out where the brief flash had come from, muted among the gray fog. He took a step forward, stretching out a hand instinctively, though he wasn't entirely sure what he was reaching for - something? Someone?

"I...think I'm Nash. I think."

He paused.

"What do you mean, 'it's me?' Who's me?"

Zoobey

 

[Zoobey]

A long pause, and then what feels like distinctively, the light pressed shining directly at.

"Nash," they finally said, and the sound of footsteps moving a direction as if pacing. "That's weird, that's my name too, just shortened."

kuropeco

 

[kuropeco]

The hand outstretched lifted instinctively to hide his face from the light, a frown stretching across his mouth. He didn't understand - it made no sense.

"What? What do you mean? Shortened from what? Who are you?"

Zoobey

[BARRELS THROUGH MEMORY PAGES]

Quote:

They remember their name and how they joined Amity/Deus/ back to the Horsemen Tower (your character can now remember base information about their name/age/appearance)

Eli picks up what looks like a blank page of paper.

"What's this? Am I supposed to read it? Do I write on it? ...Do I eat it?"

She feels like she's held something very similar before. A piece of paper? An envelope? An acceptance letter? What did it say? She squeezes her eyes shut, trying very hard to remember, and when she opens them again it seems like her entire body is somehow...clearer than before. Easier to make out. She remembers her school, and the invitation letter, and the name it was addressed to.

"Oh. So that's my name! I like it. No more placeholders for me!"

Quote:

They remember their general personality/outlook on life/ etc. This is general, very specific memories may still be foggy.

"What's this? Another page? I feel like I should be collecting these, for some reason. Hmm."

Toki picks it up, about to stuff it into her sleeves (since when did she use her clothes to store things?), and is suddenly hit by a feeling that everything will be just fine. She can work things out! No matter what terrible events might befall her, there will be a way to fix it. And if not, well, her life has not been so terribly bad. She wonders how the other people in the cabin are doing. Perhaps she should go look for them--the more the merrier, as they say.

Quote:

They remember their Fear attack/ Weapon (your character can now access Fear attacks/weapons)

"These are just floating around all over the place, goodness."

She grabs another page, thinking to keep it for later, when it just...kind of melts away in her hand.

"Mother! She's biting me again! Make her stop!"

"Well maybe if you didn't tell them I was exploring I wouldn't have to bite you, you--"

"Language! Children. Really, you should know better than to start fighting. And you know you are not supposed to go out into the mountains yet. You are far too young. Just a few more years, my dear. You can be patient, hmm?"

Toki watches the page fade away, and thinks that perhaps she should have tried to control her biting issue a little more when she was a child.  

[Zoobey]

"I just said who I am," they replied, increasingly irritated, "Look I don't have time for this. I don't even know what you really are other than some weird fog or something. I have to go okay, we have to get out of here."

And then, silence.
