[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.

Really?

[ she... looks so happy. Good. He's still looking for his stone, but the ones she found are good substitutes until then! Good stuff! PEP is fully restored! ]

Okay! Then...when I get a wish to use up, I'll get mine set, too! And maybe one for Ren! [ she beams happily-- she'd found about five or six of them. Can the Storyteller do something like that? ]
yallstupid: (Just shut up and take this!)

[Ugh, she's so cheery all of a sudden, bolstered by his admittance that he really really likes the gift she got him, and the significance it now holds. Guzma feels a bit of warmth rush up to the back of his and ears, threatening to spread to his cheeks and nose. He scoffs, rubbing a few fingers through the black fuzz on the back of his head. One for Ren, huh? Is that the girl with the cats?

...He has an idea, on how to set the stones and Guzma feels embarrassed for thinking it up, turning around with his hands in his pockets.]


Tch, can't you just worry about yourself? I'll take care of it, so don't waste what you have.
