@ 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! ))

it isn’t real
it isn’t right

[eyescar]

is it?
or are we the fake ones?

[gimu]

we are real, yuji
you and i
october 31, 2018 was real
as much as we wish it was not

[eyescar]

you didn't have to bring that up.
i believed you.

[gimu]

forgive me yuji
i just do not want to forget or be forgotten
not after everything we have been through

[eyescar]

i wouldn't forget you, choso.
my heart would always know.

[gimu]

[ and yet, in june…

no, no. that isn’t fair to him. the rift damaged them all, just like it’s trying to damage the others now. ]

and mine would know you.

we must break this delusion quickly

[eyescar]

i'm doing my best
i don't want anything to happen to them because of it

[gimu]

this kaiju will answer for its meddling.

[eyescar]

i don't know if the kaiju is to blame yet

[gimu]

what else could it be?
they did not develop this shared delusion on their own

[eyescar]

sure, but
there's a lot more going on too
look at all the clues

[gimu]

maybe so
all i recall is that the last times memory was this deeply affected, the rift or kaiju were involved

[eyescar]

it feels more like

well. i know how the rifts feel. like that.

[gimu]

exactly why they must be disabused of these false notions
immediately

[eyescar]

what if it hurts them?

[gimu]

better a momentary pain than to live this lie.

[eyescar]

not if it hurts them in a way we can't fix

[gimu]

we cleansed the rift from others before. it can be done again.

[eyescar]

im just saying we need to be careful

[gimu]

i don’t intend on hurting them, for what it’s worth.

but i will not humour their delusion.

[eyescar]

and that might hurt them
we don't know

[gimu]

so far they seem to think i am crazy.

[eyescar]

me too.
i couldn't get the words right with geto-san.

[gimu]

geto too?
ok
