[MU] - DECEMBER STORYTELLING / MEMORY SHARE

Something is wrong.

This may not very well be obvious, at first. The Storyteller is not present to put forth yet another diatribe, informative or apologetic, and the backdrop of guttering flame and sandy campfire is as present as ever...albeit briefly.



Those who tell their stories will start to notice something...odd taking place. Indeed, no matter how they intend to begin their tale, the land of Mu will immediately start to warp to accommodate it, or something utterly unlike it, until storytellers and listeners alike may find themselves in an exact recreation of a seemingly random memory, in the most stark and painstaking of detail. There is no altering the memory, nor is there any preventing it once it's begun to play - you will simply have to witness memories that are not your own this go around.

Furthermore, stories that take place in worlds other than LifeAftr will be, frankly, inevitable. Those memories, too, will be recreated, to be relived by the teller and lived by the listener.



It is time, once more, for you to tell a story...with a slight twist! This is, in fact, our first player plot, as provided by Dragon! The initial setting will be familiar for oldcomers, and newcomers will recognize it from the introduction they received in their dreams.

Yet for this Storytelling only, people can imagine whatever stories they wish, from both their homes and their time on LifeAftr, as long as they don't mind the fact that others will be reliving those stories in the form of an impromptu memory share.

Even those who prefer not to voice their stories aloud are not safe this time around. If the memory is recalled in essence, Mu will shift to accommodate it in full.

There is, however, a benefit to this: those who venture memories to be relived will receive both a befuddled apology from the Storyteller, who will assert that this was most definitely not meant to happen (they're the Storyteller, not the Rememberer!), as well as a tired promise that the relived memories will be worth two offerings each, as if in compensation.

Not that it counts for much, probably.

I've got two! Well...Nina's kind of...a fox? Are foxes dogs? [ she grins sheepishly and lets them out of their pokeballs with an energetic toss into the air! Both puppers emerge, waiting on Luna to give them the word, but Chiffon is sniffing from afar. Curious.

This little human smells like!!! The other human that gave really good pets!!!! Chiffon's tail wags!! ]

This one is Chiffon! [ she puts her hand on Chiffon's ear and gives her a good scratch...Chiffon's leg twitches behind her. G-good scratches... ] And this is Nina! [ Nina takes a seat, watching Frisk from where they are. A very, uh, 'cool' expression. Their big, fluffy tails wave behind them on an invisible breeze. ]

You can pet them both.

[Frisk's tone implies that in the fox-dog debate, this is ultimately all that matters, and anyone who implies otherwise is an outright fool. They crouch down with a soft beam crinkling the ccorners of their eyes, gaze moving equally between Chiffon and Nina. They don't seem put off at all by the latter's apparent standoffishness.]

[Of course, Frisk knows the proper etiquette for meeting new doggos. Without shuffling forward, they reach a hand out, extending their palm for sniffing.]
holdmyhand: (these little paws!)

[ Chiffon presses her face into Frisk's small hand. A very friendly sort, her tail starts wagging furiously as soon as they're touching. What a good child!! Yes, this one is good!

Nina, however, watches the hand and sniffs from a gracious distance. Luna's hand settles on Nina's head and she shoots Frisk a somewhat awkward grin. ]
Sorry...she takes some time to, uh, warm up to others. Even though she's an ice type. [ a chirpy laugh escapes her and Luna crouches down to watch Frisk and Chiffon from Nina's eye level. Nina sits closer to Luna, but watches on with interest as Frisk and Chiffon interact. Maybe a bit of jealousy is what she needs to want to be included.

Regardless, Chiffon is a happy puppo friend. She borks wantingly, the desire to be pet and scratched escalated to incredible heights. ]

[And this is a good doggo!! Though all doggos are very good, of course. Frisk makes a snort of amusement as Chiffon headbutts their hand, closing their fingers around her muzzle and wiggling it playfully before letting go and rubbing their hand over the top of her head. They glance up to Luna, smiling in earnest now.]

It's OK. Breaking the ice is always hard.

[Do pokemon like puns?? Duckie seemed to. Regardless, Chiffon has spoken, and Frisk is ever a faithful servant; emboldened, they move into a sit and pat their lap, inviting her to crawl into it for some high-quality pets.]
