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! )

no subject
Even if the case had not been this personal, it would have infuriated him to think that such a mystery would have remained unsolved. Not just because of the code, but because of the tragedy involved. Victor had suffered an immensely sad fate, but John was right, closure was something that many people never got.
His blue eyes glance up, staring at Victor, who was simply staring back. His best friend who he'd forgotten, who would have remained forgotten, he wondered what he must have thought when no one came...God, he couldn't bear it, his heart had been broken thirty years ago and he'd patched it together by sacrificing Victor's memory, and now it was breaking all over again--
He didn't realize it but John had pulled him in for a hug. Sherlock let the dam break, tears silently falling, leaning on John, not unlike how John had broken down and Sherlock had given him a hug. A detached part of him wondered about the nature of grief, how both of them had made a herculean feat at attempting to hold it back, when what they really needed to do was let it out.
No, it wasn't okay. It wouldn't be okay. And he'd have to be okay with that.
And, as always, John was there. Even after everything they'd been through, what they'd done to each other--he was there, even at his worst, his most embarrassing, his most vulnerable.
And that meant everything.
