Trash Squad Day 11 - SECRETS

Are you ready for it?! It's the long awaited final event! This is your last chance to get close before your final dates and the final bonus event!

And, back by popular demand, it's the motive vi—wait, no, not that. Well, I guess you're motivated to build your relationships? That's better anyway.

...Anyway! Check your tablets! You will find you have a few interesting video files! They should be familiar to you! The catch is... if you don't share each one with a different person by nighttime today, they will all be shown to everyone here! We'll have a fun midnight viewing party!

This may seem a bit cruel, but... love is cruel sometimes. Take it as an opportunity to get a bit closer to the people you care about, or everyone will learn a bit more about you! It's win-win when you think about it that way!

[ On your tablets are a minimum of 3 video files! There is no maximum; it's however many you OOCly want to deal with. Each video contains some sort of secret your character has—'secret' loosely defined as anything they would be uncomfortable being thrown up on a big screen in the auditorium in front of everyone. The presentation can be as simple as lines of text with embarrassing facts (Alice wet the bed until she was in junior high!) or as involved as a dramatically edited montage of the murders they committed through their whole life. Your choice!

Each file should be shown to a different person to count as 'shared'. If there is anything they do not manage to, or choose not to, share with someone in particular, comment with a brief description of it over here. These will all be shared publicly in a post which goes up on Thursday before the date announcement post. ]

[ At least he should have some idea of what the videos are after what she's told him and Allen -- what Saihara had told her.

Her fingers dig into the tablet so hard they're white at the knuckles and pads. ]


I-I... [ It's all she can get out though, and even then it's breathless and forced.

This is what happens when you're blissfully unaware for 9 days then 2 days after that you have visual evidence that it isn't a Lie. ]
flamingprick: (thoughtful talking)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, he has some idea of what it is. And that's why he's right there with her.]

Show me.
assent: (60)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ Her hands shake, like she's struggling to blink herself back out of this... mental shutdown or whatever it is. ]

I haven't watched them. I couldn't bring myself to do it.

[ Her voice doesn't sound like herself though. ]
flamingprick: (I heard something like that once)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 04:39 am (UTC)(link)
Is it...what you mentioned before?

[He will go ahead and try to gently remove the tablet from her hands. Not to watch the videos, but to try and set it aside for the moment.]
assent: (28)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ At least with the more he speaks to her, the more she's pulling herself back up. ]

Probably? The images that are in the thumbnails... Some of them I cannot place at all.

[ She trusts him to take it from her and watch them anyway if he wanted, she already said what they potentially were, after all. ]
flamingprick: (sad)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[He does want to see, but not without her permission. He's never going to do something serious like this without her permission.

So instead of watching, he sets the tablet aside for now.
]

And they're bad, huh?

[If they were happy pictures, she probably wouldn't be so freaked out about them.]
assent: (227)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
[ She stares down at her hands, where the tablet had been before. ]

The first was fire everywhere. The second... A crowd of what must have been my entire nation almost. [ She feels sick. ] But they were all wearing a mask of sorts and--

[ Her hands clench tight. ]

I cannot think of what they mean at all, yet...
flamingprick: (I heard something like that once)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
It can be hard to know, without seeing.

[Well, there is one thing he can do here.]

Do you want me to watch first? And I can tell you what's in them?
assent: (231)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
...It feels cruel to ask that of you when I have no idea of what the contents are.

[ She takes a deep breath. ]

Perhaps watch one with me?
flamingprick: (I'm the best)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'm tough, remember? I can handle it.

[He's got to be confident, for Sonia's sake.]

But we can watch it together too. That way I'm right here for you.
assent: (29)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 05:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ A tiny laugh bubbles up, which is something. ]

That is not what I meant, but thankyou.

[ She pauses--hesitates--then indicates to him. ]

May I?

[ She means so like... she can lean back against him and they can watch it that way. ]
flamingprick: (woah Bon your eyes)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
[He's got the mental fortitude too don't worry. And it takes him a moment, but he gets it.]

Oh! Yeah, sure, just a sec-

[He has to adjust how he's sitting so she can lean against him, but after a moment he is ready and holds up an arm so she can snuggle up close to him if she wants.]
assent: (48)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
[ She moves to sit with him, curling up against him and reaches for the tablet, too. ]

Is this all right?
flamingprick: (tucking his tail away)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
[He lays that arm over her shoulder, draping it across her. He's not holding onto her tightly or anything, but it's there if she needs something to grab onto.]

This is fine, yeah.
assent: (215)

marks for sdr2 spoilers in case??? does anyone care

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 06:10 am (UTC)(link)
[ She takes a deep breath, trying to prepare herself for it--




Nothing would have prepared her for it.

The image starts with the control room in Novoselic somewhere. There are multiple monitors on the wall, rows of people on computers behind it. The monitors are what are awful to see though, fire burns the landscape and buildings are broken. That isn't the worst of it though.

People in the streets are wearing bear shaped masks, half black and half white, and are hitting each other with bats, knives, tables, chairs, bottles... anything to beat each other to death. In the background people jump from the building, despair having consumed them.

And back in the control room stands Sonia, eyes red as she observes it like... she's pleased? ]
flamingprick: (shocked)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 06:13 am (UTC)(link)
[Holy. Shit.

Rin had been mentally preparing himself for a lot of possibilities, but never did he ever think of anything even remotely close to this.

He can't even say anything, he's just staring at the screen in horror. Is there more to watch? Because he's not going to say anything until he sees everything.
]
assent: (206)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ There are probably commands from her that sound like they're coming from a different person, her personality warped slightly with the despair that has taken over--but at least for this memory, that's the majority of it.

Sonia isn't moving an inch though because she recognises what some of those places had been. ]
flamingprick: (that's not possible!)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
[That is not at all surprising, since that is supposedly her country.

Rin is going to hug Sonia, though, once the video ends.
]

That's not you.
assent: (5)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ Nope nope nope nope nope she's mentally slipping again, the tablet falling through her fingers to clatter to the floor, whether he's hugging her or not she's... limp. Really. ]
flamingprick: (I can't believe it!)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
[NOPE NOT ALLOWED

Rin is sitting up now, hoisting Sonia up with him if he needs to. Because he needs to look her in the eyes and talk to her.
]

Sonia, listen to me! That's not you, alright?
assent: (209)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
[ Her throat feels dry, tight and her lungs feel even tighter. Like she's choking. Her eyes do blink as he pulls her up with him. ]

...Then who was it?
flamingprick: (definitely not amused)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 07:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Who was it indeed.]

It's...complicated. Maybe it's someone who looks like you, and is pretending to be you. Maybe it IS you, but another side of you, sort of like how I have two sides to me. Or maybe it's the you of the past, and you're not that person anymore.

But regardless, what I mean when I say 'that isn't you' is that this- [He motions to the dropped tablet.] -doesn't define who you are. You're you>, and the Sonia I know wouldn't do those things. So that's enough proof for me.
assent: (224)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 07:21 am (UTC)(link)
[ It feels strange, to struggle with words when language has been something she has been able to use across many different languages. ]

It is harder to believe when you struggle to define who you are, you realise?

[ Princess vs Sonia Nevermind and all. ]

But... thank you.
flamingprick: (I heard something like that once)

[personal profile] flamingprick 2018-03-26 07:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I know.

[His struggle is more 'human vs demon', so it's not quite the same. But he kind of understands.]

But I'm serious. There's all kinds of explanations for this video, and unless we're told the truth you can't let it get to you. Shit like this, it eats away at you. You're a good person, Sonia. You deserve better than a shitty video wrecking your everything.
assent: (232)

[personal profile] assent 2018-03-26 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ It's something relatable in a way though, yeah. ]

Actually, I... can confirm it with my classmates, when I bring myself to gather the courage.

[ She will get the full story from Mikan for sure, eventually. ] However, all of my life I have lived merely for the sake of my country and my people. My identity and everything surrounding me was formed due to that. I apologise, it is just... going to take some time to settle, I suppose.

[ Plus that video was. Something. ]
