FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE, MY FELLOW LUCETIANS

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!

[This week has been horrible. Nerve-wrecking, and horrible. In terms of trauma, Minako really hasn't been through much, that is to say, other that that car crash that happened so suddenly than in eyeblink later, she lost everything that she had.

Did she go through more painful memories? Yes. There were several more deaths that she had to witness during her school year, in addition to Ryoji-kun's farewell... But Mitsuru-senpai was here. Pharos was a child, but he's here too. And so is Minato, her nii-san.

She heard screams. She heard begging. She also heard the wails of thousands who disagreed with her choice, to prevent the Fall. Anyone looking her way - both her and Minato's, really, would sometimes see Thanatos (http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/ii216/thefullmetalshinigami/Persona%203/Personas/Thanatos.png), the ultimate Persona of the Death Arcana, hover above them. It came with a whole string of coffins, which didn't add to anything pleasant, but still, an illusion is an illusion.

She herself was dressed as her signature Persona (http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/397/femaleorpheus.png), while her brother did the same (http://matteomazzali.files.wordpress.com/2008/01/orpheus-main-psd-jpgcopy.jpg). And right now? Hand in hand, the twins were making their way to the grocery store. They needed to restock, but she's not leaving her brother alone - she's being even clingier than usual, actually, but while Minato's expression may seem grim and a bit distant, hers was fiercely determined.

He didn't talk much, but she knew well enough that this just meant he was trying to keep more bottled up within again. Well she's not going to let all this crap affect her: yes she's been through her share of rough patches too, but HELL no she's not going to let it drag down, especially when she has loved ones that she must protect and support.

She doesn't say anything (yet), but dimly, her hand squeezed tighter on his.]

[To a stranger, Minato with his silent blank face might seem utterly unaffected. But others would recognize it as his usual reaction to threats. The more distressing the situation, the more calm he appears. Logic and reason are the best tools in the face of danger.

The periodic green sky and patches of red blood on the ground don't phase him. Neither do the Shadows that appear in the corner of his vision, though they do cause him to turn toward the source each time to confirm they're only illusions. Things like that are normal. He lived through the Dark Hour every night for a year, climbed to the top of Tartarus, and fought Death herself. Something at this level is not going to break him. As long as it stays at this level, he'll be fine.

But if the steady escalating screams sounding more and more familiar are any indication, that wish is unlikely.]

[She walks a little fast and pulls him along.]

It's not that far, we can do it. I'll make something warm and filling tonight, so it's going to be okay. C'mon, that way.

[He knows with this experiment, there's really no difference whether they're at home or out here, but indoors is at least warmer and drier. She looks like she'll keep talking regardless of what he says to distract herself, though, so he decides to go ahead and reply.] What are you planning to get?

[He doesn't need to give any signs or admitting it: she'd have the feeling that her voice helps him, too.]

You need to help me carry a pumpkin. I'm not letting Halloween pass without at least baking one pumpkin pie, and we're getting some more apples for later too. Then there's the usual groceries, so there will be quite a lot to carry.

That's okay. [he's more than used to being a pack mule for girls.]

Good, now hold on. Just look forward, I'm right here. [She might or might not have edged closer as she kept pulling him forward.] Ugh... This is really kind of like Tartarus, isn't it?

[She's really starting to sound mothering, but if it helps her get through this he'll gladly allow it.] A little. But none of the Shadows are real.

[She graces him with a small pout.] I know that just as well as you do, you know. [Did it hold a little edge? Yes, because she knows better than most on how he must feel over the matter, too.] Anyway, you've been here for over a year, right? How was the last Halloween like, here in Luceti?

[thinking back... that was so long ago.]

An amusement park showed up. ...It was actually fun.

A- ...Seriously? ...Wow, I would have never guessed... Was it really around the same time?

This week, yes.

Hnng... Do you know what happened the year before? You'd know people in Luceti that have been around for that long, right?

There was something about vampires.

[...don't mind him stiffening a little as a voice suddenly starts begging for his help somewhere in the fog - a voice that sounds a lot like Yukari.]

That doesn't sound too unusual, actually. There are vampires here too, after all. [She squeezes his hand harder when he hesitates, and tugs. If she heard the same thing, she didn't let it show.] Can you tell me more about the amusement park? What was around, and what did you do?

The usual rides. Roller coasters, games... [he turns his gaze to the ground, away from the Hanged Man Shadow looming over them] There was a house of mirrors that showed the past and future.

That does sound amazing... The house of mirrors could do that? [...No point asking more about it.] It must have been curious to see. Who did you go with, though? There's no way that you could have went to a theme park like that alone. It wouldn't be as fun, anyway. [She's walking a bit more towards his side, keeping quiet as she did so when the bells began to ring in her ear, from Tartarus the night that Ikutsuki made the big reveal.]

Almost everyone in town went. Mitsuru-senpai and I walked around for a while. [Until Souji stole her and ruined his date.]

[sadly unaware, but she's not interested in that, actually. She WOULD tease him about it, but the mood just wasn't right today.] Did you go with anyone else not from home? It must have been a good occasion to know other people better, too. We know what a theme park is like, but it's possible that a lot of other people here didn't.

A lot of people... It was fun. [and no, the mood wasn't right. But their work is paying off - they're almost to the store now.]

You'll have to tell me more about it once everything goes back to normal! [She gives a genuine happy smile, and then perks up.]

I see the store over there! C'mon! [Gripping his hand with more strength, she tugs it forward as she begins to sprint to the store. And the "BRRR" noises be damned, >:|]

[He matches her grip, puts his usual dignity aside and runs with her. Being inside will do nothing for the hallucinations, but at least they'll be out of the mist.]

[Yes. And ignoring their environment, there is FOOD around, and that automatically makes her feel more comfortable.]

Alright, so we need, aside from a pumpkin and some apples, [insert a list of things here that she remembers because it's food, and yes she expects you to follow her through while she goes through that.] Can you get me [but she's nice enough to not expect you to get EVERYTHING, so let's split the list up! she shouldn't ask for too much though, so only a reasonable amount that you should be good with carrying.], please?

Right.

[he listens silently to her list, then moves back behind a shelf of goods to start looking. He picks up a can of corn from the shelf, looking it over -]

[--only to hear her scream from the other side of the shelf. The can automatically drops from his grasp as he dashes back around the barricade --]
