[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.

no subject
[He's not- not really sure why he wants to defend himself. It's not going to make anything better, not going to change anything about why his solution to things being less than ideal was to run away and kill people for a living instead of doing the "normal" thing.]
I'd been Deadlock for years already by that point. Wasn't much reason for me to believe things weren't gonna go anyway else even if I hoped for otherwise.
no subject
[Now that there’s even a vague inclination that Jesse might want to defend his choice, Gabe has a target. Maybe he’s jot as good a shot, but he sure as hell is going to try.]
[hust because he can.]
no subject
Could have, but what would've that gotten me? I'd've been the one lyin' dead in the desert an' I wasn't too keen on that at the time.
[Now, though, he thinks it'd be easier to just let himself go.]
no subject
[Kill or be killed, indeed. Maybe Gabe lacks the insight of someone who’s ever been in that situation for real, but that doesn’t mean he’s not going to be a petulant shit about it. It’s what he’s best at.]
What kind of kid did that make you?
no subject
Perhaps naivety. It's probably...good that there are some kids out here who haven't learned the harsher lessons in life.]
Shit, kid, what do you want me to say? Yeah, I killed him. I've got a lot of blood on my hands and I don't got the luxury of a re-do.
[He shakes his head.]
Guess that would've made me a pretty bad kid.
no subject
[It's hard to tell what Gabe's endgame is here, in part because Gabe himself doesn't know what to do with someone who isn't knee-deep in their own denial. McCree just admitted to everything, in sequence, that Gabe was attempting to bring out of him. So...what next, then?]
[Is this the part where he fades away?]
