Trash Squad Day 11 - SECRETS

[chinhotta]

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. ]

[dismemberthename]

What to show to who... yeah.

[truthstranger]

Have you figured it out for yours?

[dismemberthename]

[wobbles a hand indecisively]

A little bit. Mostly I've figured out who wouldn't get too messed up by the really violent stuff, and I figure I can let others choose from what's safer by the thumbnails...

[truthstranger]

That seems like a reasonable way to do it.

[dismemberthename]

Makes the most sense, I think...

Um. Would you mind if I showed you one?

[truthstranger]

[blinks]

Oh, no! That is, I wouldn't mind at all.

[dismemberthename]

Thanks. There's a little violence, but it's... not so bad? [grimaces] Okay, it's pretty bad. There's a lot of built up shit going on in it, too, but... [turns the tablet his way, and this high drama series of events starts playing it's A Lot so glean from it what you will, it all happens pretty fast onscreen anyway.]

[truthstranger]

Ah...

[in fact that is a lot to take in without context.]

...It seems like you live an interesting life.

[dismemberthename]

Yeah... sorry about the information overload.

[truthstranger]

It's fine.

[he thinks it over a bit, trying to decide what stood out the most that wouldn't be too awkward to ask about]

What was that about... stories of the future?

[dismemberthename]

Oh, um- you know how I said this isn't my body, before?

[truthstranger]

Right... You said you had a different body originally.

[dismemberthename]

Basically, when I switched to this body I went back in time. Like eight hundred years?

[truthstranger]

I... see...

[dismemberthename]

It's a lot to swallow, huh.

[truthstranger]

Mm. It's hard to imagine something like that happening.

[dismemberthename]

[nods]

I'm with you there. Honestly, I was starting to forget what my life used to be like? But they got videos with my original body somehow, if you'd like to see.

[truthstranger]

Ah, I wouldn't mind, but... only if you want to.

[dismemberthename]

I don't mind it. It actually helps me avoid trying to figure out how to say some stuff.

[it's one someone's already seen, and the tablet says so, but he loads up another one. it's pretty obvious that sudoh is himself, which is PERHAPS SLIGHTLY SURPRISING, though he seems... way less invested in the people around him than he is these days, and a bit driftier. like he's not quite caught up in the present. weird how much that girl looks like the guy from the previous memory, huh?

also his living situation, yikes.]

[truthstranger]

[his eyes widen a little as he watches it]

That's... certainly not what I would have expected.

[dismemberthename]

Right? Sorry for not mentioning it before, but you've gotta admit it adds to the sheer unbelievability of it all.

[truthstranger]

What... happened, exactly? To send you out of your body and eight hundred years into the past?

[dismemberthename]

You saw it. She played that stringless instrument, and I woke up on the gallows a moment later.

[truthstranger]

So it was some kind of magic...? Or do you not know?

[dismemberthename]

[he shrugs.]

I don't know. Whatever happened has never bothered to explain itself to me.
