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. ]

Th-that's what people say, until they learn about it...

[She stares down at the tablet for a long moment]

I-I don't even know which would be... the 'least worst' to show. [There are a couple videos--at least three seem to be just regularly embarrassing and possibly vaguely NSFW. The others seem to show a trial room, or things on fire, or a... dead body? There sure is a lot of blood.

She shakes her head and sniffles lightly.]

[pecker]

[Reviewing the thumbnails, well, these give a pretty clear hint of what they will be about. They seem pretty chaotic for a nurse of all things, but 'killing game' is the go-to guess for that kinda thing here, with half of the people already being in one. Niwatori actually reacts with more surprise to the NSFW ones, because those are less in line with what other people have showed her.]

A-Are you worried because yours have death in them? Because... there are actually a lot of bloody videos out there... We've all been through a lot, I guess.

cw: mention of needles and uh, death. yeah.

[discerp]

[A moment of quiet and Mikan watches Niwatori quietly before looking at the tablet again] ...Not like this.

[That's all she says before she reaches over to tap the video showing a syringe in the thumbnail. The town it starts in is utterly destroyed. Buildings collapsing, smoke from fires. Dead people absolutely litter the streets, some bodies destroyed and beaten beyond recognition, some put up in grotesque displays.

There are people, some wearing strange bear mask/helmets, some not, that are running around participating in this mad mass murder. There's laughter, insane giggling as they rip into each other, fight-- Screams of fleeing victims.

There's a soft giggling before Mikan shows up on screen, wearing what must have been an all-white nurse's uniform before. Her eyes, however, seem to be bright red instead of their usual color and there's a crazed little grin on her face.

"Hold him still, hold him still~" She sing-songs to two bear-masked men, who dutifully hold down a third, maskless man. He screams and struggles, but Mikan shivers and hums, pleased, as she crawls on top of him, straddling his waist. Her breathing's grown heavier an she reaches into the pocket of her uniform to pull out a syringe.

"This won't hurt. One. Bit!"

Whatever she injects him with does...something. The man writhes and bucks and screams and Mikan moans softly, near-drooling as she watches the man die with wide, gleeful eyes.

The video clicks off after that.]

[pecker]

[Niwatori was honestly just planning to pretend she was fine regardless of what she saw, but this ... is certainly a lot to unpack, and will require more finesse. She's noting these crazed rioters and their masks, beginning the idle commentary she tends to do while watching these.]

Oh, that bear sort of resembles the chinchillas, huh...

[...And Mikan is controlling them, but she doesn't really know how those pieces fit yet. Her red eyes are more attention grabbing, a possible straw to grasp on when reverse engineering this desired outcome of plausible forgivability from whatever horror fest this is. Reyson's massacre video prepared her a bit for that, at least, even if this seems to be a step further in pure maliciousness. It didn't really prepare her for the eroticism of this final scene. You meet freaks on battlefields sometimes, but even the Rabbit with his necromantistry wasn't straddling people like that as he killed them.]

I um, I take it that's your cheating ex-boyfriend? They say hell hath no fury like a lover scorned, haha. [Yeah, she's just forcing a joke in an awkward attempt to make Mikan watching her watch this less uncomfortable...Truth be told, the extreme sadism isn't a bad look on her. She seems so much stronger like that. But it doesn't seem like that's what she would want to hear, so the only way that manifests is a shrewd narrowing of Niwatori's eyes for the last few minutes of this guy expiring. And then the video is over. She takes a moment of silence to gather her thoughts, then looks up into the nurse's eyes.]

Mikan-san... well, do you actually remember doing any of this? Your eyes looked so different, I wondered if you were actually somebody else... or being controlled, or something like that. Right now it's still my belief that you wouldn't do this.

[The idea of her being controlled is one she got from Rabbit and the way his 'walking dead' would have red irises. They're long shots, but she'll see what works.]

[discerp]

[Mikan-- sort of laughs. Not at Niwatori's boyfriend joke or anything like that (that she just sort of smiles weakly at), but that the other woman seems to be trying to make sense of it all. In Mikan's opinion, none of it makes sense, nor is it supposed to. 'Despair' doesn't have to make sense, after all, right?

But at length she simply nods] ...It was me, I remember it. Maybe not this particular scene, b-because... Well, th-there were a lot like this, but... I remember doing things like this. And worse.

...But, I was brainwashed. In that, all of my worst traits were brought out, exaggerated... I became the worst version of myself.
