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! )

[Jacob knows a thing or two about being betrayed by father figures. But this doesn't sound like the same thing at a ll.]

Maybe he was mind controlled. Or maybe-

[He pauses.]

You told me before that your powers are dangerous if you lose control. Maybe he felt he didn't have any other way to stop you.

I didn't lose control until after that though. I mean, it could be that his demon was in control, from his Cursed Gear.

[Probably. And yet Yuu still feels there's more he is missing. From Guren having some sort of connection to the vampires, or at least Ferid in particular, let alone the drug that Ferid gave him being the same used to control Guren's demon, supposedly.]

[That gets a blink from Jacob. He looks over at 'Guren.']

So he's like you? His power can take over if things go wrong?
dejerate: (Is so much)

He's not a seraph like I am but. All of us with Cursed Gear, there's a risk that the demon will take over.

[Which is a risk they all take. It almost happened to Yoichi when they took their exam to get their Cursed Gear. It's just not as destructive as the sort of damage and brutality of the seraph. What Yuu is really capable of. Even if it's difficult, when they could be ordered to take down a squad member in such a case, if their demon takes full control.]
