weep not for the memories

WHO: Everybody!
WHERE: all cities
WHEN: March 4 - March 6
WHAT: it's a catch-all log, sucka! Tag here and thread around for the Dorian Ruins Everything Guilt Extravaganza part of the overall March plot. Please check out this ooc post for details!
WARNINGS: Traumatic memories. Possible talk of murder, death, blood, other nasty things. I'll try to update if the warnings needed but please use content warnings if it gets super nasty!

It starts off on March 4th, the early morning before the sun's even risen. You know those weird mirages that were hanging around the day before? Well now it's getting a little personal.

These mirages come and go seemingly for no reason. They might stay for a minute, they might stay for an hour. The images vary between person but the unifying factor is that the mirages consist of people the player characters have hurt, whether people in-game or from their homes. Whether they murdered them, slandered them, or even had a petty little argument, the unifying factor is the guilt each character feels towards or about this mirage. After all, you know you hurt them somehow. You know their existence somehow makes you feel guilty.

Another unifying factor? The creepy way these mirages just seem to stick to you. They'll follow you if you try to leave, staring you down with their creepy unblinking mirage eyes. And whoops: everybody can see said mirages. Hopefully you're not being stalked by someone you and somebody else both know, wouldn't that be awkward?

Have fun confronting your traumatizing past and/or wondering why your buddy's got some creepy ghost guy following him, imPorts!

( ooc: this is a catch-all log! Make starters of your characters getting haunted by their creepy mirages, have other people react to said creepy mirages, ???, profit. Hit me up on the ooc post if you have any questions! )

[ Cisco's been walking around with his head down, trying to ignore the worried, plaintive stare that Dante's got fixed on his back. He figured out soon enough that Dante want actually there, that it was some kind of hallucination or localized hologram, but what he can't figure out is how to get rid of him.

He's just tried to ignore it as best he can, but he can't help himself when he runs into Han Solo arguing with Jabba the freaking Hutt. He laughs, for the first time in days. It's a sad, tired laugh, but a laugh nonetheless. ]


That's rough, buddy. [ If only Princess Leia were here to strangle him with the chain from her slave outfit. ]

[Han has pretty much given up on getting Jabba off his back any time soon—for one thing, punching him didn't work, and shouting at him just makes him glare at Han all the more in judgment. Which is just rich, coming from a Hutt.

Anyway, for all that Han's annoyed with the mirage-Jabba, he has noticed all those other mirages all over town, ranging from the impersonal (like passing through a woman clad in ruffles) to the personal. So when he hears Cisco's tired laugh, he scrubs a hand over his face and sighs. It could always be worse, he supposes.]


Ignore him, he'll go away. [At least, that's what Han hopes.] You all right there? You sound like you had it rougher than I did.
