@ nice toy (locked to the non au'd folks)

[fursuit]

so you've all noticed that about half of us are totally fucked in the head right

best I can tell they think they've always lived here? in this world I mean. kinda hard to ask too much more than that without looking like you're the one that's insane but man

apparently they've also got backstories for all of us??? so how the fuck am I supposed to know that shit???

anyways. wanted to toss this out there for discussing and strategizing how to deal with this fuckin mess. I figure once we kill this kaiju they'll all go back to normal but

I dunno. be gentle with them. I know that's ironic coming from me but whatever

lemme know if there's anyone I missed to add to this filter.

(( ooc ; this is a discussion post about the people with au'd memories for those who do not have those memories! ending up on this filter is an icly handwaved process, so feel free to jump in if this applies to your character. threadjacking is very much open and welcome!

there's also a sister post for the au'd characters here, so if you're looking for that, go for it! ))

But how, Master? We can't trust her!

[misclassed]

[ says the guy who is actively pretending to be a different person in all the public network conversations out there, dwbi ]

something's on her too, alright? but she's

look, i can promise there's nothing evil about her.

i swear it on my tsumukari.

[newphew]

So you think she's being affected by the same thing everyone else is?

[ This Is Fine ]

[misclassed]

its not everyone

you're still you, aren't you?

[newphew]

Most people!

I'm still me! For now...

[ hyperventilating now, oh boy ]

1/2.

[misclassed]

it only feels like most because we all got the same pictures of you lot and you're trying to piece it together from the outside alright?

[ oh, goddammit ]

voice.

[misclassed]

Hunter.

[ That's Muramasa's teacher voice. Solid, firm, with the weight of expectation behind it; expectation that his instructions be followed while Hunter's at his lessons, learning to handle a fire or use a hammer proper. ]

Slow down, kid.

[newphew]

The---- what?

[ ???? ]

[ anyway, he goes quiet when the teacher voice comes into play, but he's still all bug-eyed and struggling to breathe. loser ]

[misclassed]

Deep breath. Hold it till I say so, and then let it out slow.

[ is he fully walking hunter through a breathing exercise? apparently so.

pretend he does that. ]

[newphew]

Is it out then in or in then out?

[ he forgot how to breathe ]

[misclassed]

In, then out. On my count.

[ you know, standard meditation shit. in for three, hold for four, out for five. in for three, hold for four, out for five. ]

[newphew]

Okay...

[ he does as instructed, the air making a whistling noise through his teeth because of his gaptooth ]

Like that?
