FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE, MY FELLOW LUCETIANS

[fourteen]

Who: EVERYONE
What: TRAUMA!
When: ALL THE TIME
Where: ANYWHERE
Summary: HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE TRAUMA. FREE FOR ALL IN THE SCARRING EXPERIENCES DEPARTMENT.
Rating: Gosh. I'm not sure. However, I suggest you hide your little'uns.

Basically, the purpose of this log is TRAUMA SPAM. If you didn't want to spam your flist with extra posts, or you wanted to post with more than one character -- or more than one character more than once! -- here is your place to be.

This will be a commentspam style log where you can thread start with your character hallucinating things. Whatever you wish it to be! It can even just be a more general thread start where they're not hallucinating anything -- yet. And each thread can get treated like a post, where that character's CR can react to the trauma going down!

If you still wish to actually post in your character's journal, you're of course totally allowed to do so. This is just here for funtiems and convenience for everyone who wanted a greater chance to post during this event! Feel free to use it anytime over the next few days, through Halloween, to do "posts" and threads with your characters.

Have at, guys!

[Well. That's fine. Nami will be determinedly cheerful as they go into the mostly deserted bar. ...you'd think all the creepiness and hallucinatory trauma was keeping people at home, or something.] Take a seat, I can get us some drinks. Want something alcoholic today? [God knows she does.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[They can just serve their own drinks, man. No problem. ...but while something alcoholic may sound tempting to Nami--] I probably shouldn't, b-but thank you.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

That's okay, I remember last time. I'll get you some soda.

[Off she goes! And will return very shortly with drinks. Going Merry for her, and something fizzy and non-alcoholic for Noel 8|]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

Thanks. [And now she waits. For the soda. 8|]

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Her step hitches very briefly on the way back-- pausing as if listening to a sudden sound-- but Nami comes back to the table still smiling firmly, putting both glasses down. Soda for you.]

Just, y'know. Any time you feel like switching to something harder, let me know.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[Noel doesn't fail to notice that particular move. She starts to get a little worried, and when Nami hands her the glass of soda she gives her a weak smile in thanks before it falters back into a concerned look.] Are you going to be okay?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah. [Said flatly, but after taking a sip of her drink, there's that same wan smile.] I don't like it, but I know it's not real. Long as I remember that, it's fine.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[The way she's able to reassure herself that even with the hallucinations occurring all around her is pretty admirable and... something she can sort of to look up to, in Noel's opinion.]

That's... really strong of you, Nami.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Grin.] Well, let's face it. Luceti already sucks- this is small change compared to some of the stuff we've been through.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Though I guess we can't all be strong. Isn't that so, Lieutenant?

[......

Did she hear that correctly? Those words Nami just spoke... did she really just say that? She stares at her friend for a few moments, in disbelief. ...not Nami. Nami would never say that; call her that. For a moment, her mind jumps to someone else--and she can begin to feel a terrible, lingering feel of dread when...]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[...ahaha. She looks away from the girl, shaking a little. You're hallucinating. It's not real. Your head is playing tricks on you; it's not happening.

Noel shudders, taking a deep breath before deciding to try looking at her friend again. Her hold on the glass tightens.

Please, Nami, prove to her that everything's okay, just like you said.] ...S-Sorry. What was that?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

[Raised eyebrow. She can't miss that, Noel. So she repeats herself, carefully.] I said Luceti sucks. Compared to what we've already been through, this is--

[And trailing off. Why are you looking at her like that?]

...what did you see?

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[...See? It's fine, Noel.

Even if it was a hallucination, how could she just tell her that she just spoke like... him, almost? What would that even mean to Nami?

She shakes her head and smiles a little in reassurance.] Don't worry about it. I just--misheard what you said.

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Mm. [Takes a sip of her drink with a faint frown.] Well, unless it sounds distinctly like me saying it, I'd ignore it.

[Kind of mean for a hallucination, Luceti.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

I-I know. [She hesitates before taking a sip of her soda.] It's not real. I just have to ignore it.

[Repeating what Nami told her? Yes. 'Cause Nami's right. She just needs to keep that in mind to get through this. ...even if they feel so real.]

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Mmhmm. So nothing to worry about.

[Long sip of her drink.]

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

...unless I was possessed! That would be a different story.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

What?

1/3 *_*

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

What? Did I stutter? Why not pay a little more attention more often? It might do you some good! Ahahaha! Come on--what's with that face? Got a problem with me, Noel?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Huh? I bet you're thinking, "Oh, no! Wh-What's wrong with Nami?" --I'm right, aren't I? Right?

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

...Oh, man. Don't tell me! Have you seriously forgotten already? How many times has it been now? Maybe you should get that cute little head of yours checked! Hehehe.

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[No.

Please tell her this isn't happening--because it's not. This is all just a hallucination, no matter how real it looks and how horrible it feels and how her voice is no longer Nami's.

The chatter within the bar fades away from her mind, and all she can see is Terumi sitting next to her.]

[bullet-dance.livejournal.com]

[--This isn't... he's not...]

Y-You're not real...

[mikangirl.livejournal.com]

Hahahahaha! Can you really tell yourself that, after all the wonderful time we've spent together? Or, wait, let me guess! You forgot that, too? Wow! This is just sad. Should I remind you, or are you just going to let it all sink in for yourself? Well? You better hurry up and choose!
