MARCH EVENT INFO POST: A SOUND OF THUNDER
man, it’s sure been a wild couple of months, huh? Fio has been having weird dreams. a mirror ate Bash. Crabb touched some stuff. Ava and Pratt fed Ebalon’s corpse to a ghost. wild stuff.
anyway, entirely unrelated, there’s suddenly giant holes in reality everywhere?
that’s normal. that’s probably fine. it’s friendly.
WELCOME TO MEMSHARE EVENT BUT BUILT DIFFERENT! throughout the month of March, large cracks will begin to form around the Serena Eterna: on walls, on floors, in the air, under water, anywhere and everywhere. these cracks are completely benign until touched; anyone who touches one will find themselves pulled inside, along with anyone standing too close to them.
inside, they will find themselves in the middle of a fellow passenger’s memory - physically. they will be able to interact with the world of the memory, and those inside it will react to them and their actions. what they do in the memory will have a lasting impact: namely, if you die in the memory, you die in real life, and the new memory formed by their actions will join the existing memory inside the memory-owner’s, well, memory.
super confusing and weird, right? let’s try to explain this through an example.
a crack forms, containing Jack’s memory of the day he and Jill went up the hill. the crack, at separate times, is touched by Tom, alone, and Dick and Harry, together. while in the memory, Tom saves Jack when he falls down in the hill; meanwhile, Dick and Harry are killed when Tom and Jill collide with them, killing them both. Tom leaves the memory unscathed, while Dick and Harry revive in their cabins, thankful that they seem to have been spared the Dumb Death Tax.
from that point on, until otherwise noted, Jack will have three separate memories of the same event: falling down and breaking his crown, being saved by Tom, and dying. despite the fact that these three memories are very much mutually exclusive, and the fact that Jack also has memories of his life after apparently dying, he will be unable to discern which memory is the true one on his own. they will all feel equally real to him.
(note: this isn’t permanent! probably. you have a chance to fix it! a chance.)
please feel free to use this post for plotting purposes. memories can be shared as many times as you feel you can handle; how they are shared (threading out the interaction, handwaving and just writing the memory and the reaction separately, etc) is entirely up to you.
oh, and one more thing.
there will also be npc memories available. these memories will be much less interactive than passenger ones, but will contain Delicious Lore. sign-up thread below, closes on March 1st. memories will be allocated randomly to no more than one or two characters each.

a'ite so, i've got a lot of ideas and am tossing them all here on a scale of most interactive to least! for the most interactive possibilities!
but even the not so interactive prompts i'm primed and READY to write essays about to give your character the most immersive experience possible! for example:

nooo, i like what we discussed on plurk! just absolutely dunk on emerson, be completely ignored until the airlocks actually open, and then just a series of "wait who tf is this?" i don't know how that memory will come to any sort of natural conclusion, but we can always just cut it off like tv static when we run out of steam
but i'm also thirsty for dropship lever & aftermath shenanigans. commit a war crime with your bestie! experience mount weather! i bet we could play around with making the memory glitchy since she passes out when gassed if we want, OR if there's any sort of daring rescue from the mountain men we can make a whole new one!
no subject
I want Darcy to witness Clarke doing something awful so badly please let's facilitate that
no subject
mount weather is fun, darcy could walk through the dining room of dead bodies in their evening finery in clarke's wake. or the death of finn could be fun too, darcy could somehow watch as clarke breaks down trying to scrub blood off her hands. and maybe we work in some staticy memory jumpcuts and darcy also sees the Very Not There finn haunting her choices for a few days.
off menu there's also the time she let a bomb drop on a city and didn't warn anyone! (this would be hard to thread out and make interesting but still!) and there's her breaking out of mount weather quarantine and holding a girl hostage with a broken piece of glass, then almost irradiating the whole colony before even fully realizing they were the bad guys! there's the first time she killed a person (mercy kill) and the first time she Killed A Person (slit a strangers throat)! there's also her locking some of her friends out of a safety bunker and pointing a gun at bellamy when he makes a mad dash to save them! and there's her spearheading the selection of who to test an experimental nightblood serum on, tying up her friends, then picking one of said friend's girlfriends, and trying to justify herself through maybe killing this person (bonus: darcy could see her eventually turn the needle on herself, and voila, the beginning of nightblood clarke laid bare!)
all that to say THERE'S OPTIONS, HOW AWFUL YOU WANT IT
no subject
jesus christ okay we may just need to shove this into a random number generator
or if you have any preferences??? just
fucking hell clarke get some therapy
no subject
we can absolutely rng but let's narrow it down first maybe. off the top of my head i'm feeling we could have good threads with:
1. mercy killing an acid-fog burnt atom while humming him a lullaby* (probs only spectator)
2. killing caliban in an apocalyptic bank vault*, then clarke mistakes her for another grounder and gets aggressive but like. inexperienced aggressive. mostly gonna cry and ask if darcy killed finn.
3. put darcy amid grounders watching clarke murk finn, then also in the tent with clarke washing blood off her hands, mid panic attack, but before her mom comes in (i can't find a good clip of this ugh)
4. somehow interjecting darcy into the escape from mount weather quarantine, either coming up before she gets to maya and thus being the one to get a glass shank to her neck OR in that first dark hallway pre elevator as a third party
* for video clips of option 1 & 2

But fr Oda would probably be best fit for City of Light so that will be funnnnnn
no subject
but city of light is good too! i imagine it could be neat for him to see an a.i.'s interpretation of a modern city!
no subject
Lol yes. I'm going to let him hit all the trippiest surrealism I can find. As you do.

oh i look forward to thiiiiiis

If the mindjacked-Abby one isn't as good for interactivity, we could go with a different one!
no subject
but of course, if none of those sound fun for you i can also offer: abby greeting clarke fresh out the skybox (rita'd blend right in with the other delinquents) or abby comforting clarke while she literally tries to scrub blood off her hands. OR! late s4 abby telling her teenage daughter to go save the world like, twelve hours before the second nuclear apocalypse wheeze
no subject
no subject
just depends on the vibe!
also skybox has a v easy thread ending spot, which would be whenever clarke gets knocked out lol
