[ hero complex intensifies ]

[hjack69]

aight weve talked about the memollucinations ( im calling them flashbacks bc i never want to type memollucination ever again ) before so w/e about those

now i wanna hear from you folks that had new weird shit happen
im talking physical marks showing up out of nowhere
getting stuff from retrospec
the ability to make gravity your bitch ( or some other weird power thing i guess )

nothings happened to me personally outside of remembering stuff but people are starting to get hurt and im gonna make damn sure it doesnt end up a regular thing
you can share what you remember if you want it might trigger someone elses flashbacks

here i even made a survey

Name: Age: Occupation: Describe the weird crap you've had to deal with:

ya welc

here's my question. why are some people getting cooler stuff than other people? karkat's apparently getting sickles in the mail and all I got was some dumb necklace that looks homemade

[Way to not fill out the survey, Luke.]

[doublesmall]

the obvious answer is that those people are just cooler, in general

[chiseler]

somehow I don't think that's it but nice try?

[doublesmall]

don't worry, maybe yours will end up being cooler later on

maybe it goes back and forth, you know? next time you'll get the awesome shit and we'll end up with something useless.

[chiseler]

I hope so. I'm starting to feel way left out here
so wait what about gravity? what'd you do?

[Because..he can read the post at least okay. Give him some credit.]

[doublesmall]

I got stuck on my own ceiling. it sucked, definitely would not recommend.

if, theoretically, I can figure out how to make that happen myself it could be pretty damn great, but right now? pain in the ass.

[chiseler]

I mean better ON than IN. wouldn't that suck even more? Take a picture next time, I want to see it

if it randomly just started you don't think there's a way to turn the thing off?

[doublesmall]

I posted a couple, h/o.

[He takes a second to retrieve them, then links both the original image from his post, as well as a selfie in which everything else in view is very clearly upside down-- and just to cover everything, another that's just of his feet on the ceiling. See, no wires or anything.]

best I could do on my own, but there you go. :*

if you mean a way to turn it off when it happens, I'm working on that. off in general? fuck if I know, I'm just trying not to live upside down or sideways for now.

[chiseler]

[Ugh don't emote at him you jerk :c Give him a second to review the images here.]

probably better than anything I could pull off but that's probably because I'd be busy trying to get off the ceiling

could probably run some tests on you, see what you stick to, see if something triggers it. I don't want to say there's no pattern yet but it's also entirely possible you're just being fucked with

does this mean I can start calling you a bat though?

[doublesmall]

absofuckinglutely not, I'm not a bat.

and what kind of tests are you considering here? just holding me against something to see if it kicks in again??

also considered the possibility of me being fucked with but honestly, I don't see how they'd pull this off. if anyone has the capability then it's equally likely that I could have it, right?

[chiseler]

not yet anyway

and maybe something like that. at least if you're controlling it it won't be that much of a surprise when things happen. we can try a few roofs, a few walls, stuff like that

but I don't think so. why would you think that?

[hjack69]

right??
some people get weapons or dancing fruit or powers and all i get is admittedly frickin sweet memories of stuff that never happened
is the necklace even cool looking?

[chiseler]

see you're already one-up on me because I have a memory of kittens growing out of dirt. not exactly awesome. impressive, but not awesome
it's a leather cord with five clay beads on it
one of the beads has a centaur wearing a dress
so no, not really

[hjack69]

wow thats
idk probably not THE WEIRDEST thing ive heard but thats
i cant believe i hear about kitten bushes or w/e and im like " oh yeah thats not so bad "
have you tried growing kittens yet

[chiseler]

unless they also decide to send me teeth in the mail there will be no kitten bushes in recolle
I hate that I can type that and have it make sense. but yeah, they grew out of teeth? like saber tooth tiger teeth from a museum
if anybody has an explanation I'd definitely love to hear it

[hjack69]

the explanation is you should let me have a free round at your bar
you got me all excited for kitten trees and cant deliver and now im emotionally compromised
also i remember being on a train that blew up so basically i win

[chiseler]

now see normally I'd say "hell no" because I need to make money somehow but I want to hear about this exploding train
call it a fair trade you can cash in, free round for a free story about what other weird shit you've remembered

[hjack69]

then im gonna need a round for each memory bc that shit is NUTS
i also owned the train??
and there were attacking robots
there were ROBOTS attacking NINJA CYBORGS
im friggin laughing bc all of this is so insane but i remember it like it was yesterday

havent even gone into the diamond horses yet

[chiseler]

I have so many questions and right now I think my biggest one is who let you own a train? isn't that kind of a big deal? and isn't a cyborg the same as a robot?
...you know what. come by whenever. I'll make something really strong and pretend that all of this shit isn't totally unbelievable

[hjack69]

nah see a robot doesnt necessarily have a human shape while a cyborg does
this guy was like
i mean i dont KNOW if he was a cyborg or just wearing a mondo badass suit
( i dont even know if it was a he honestly )
but he had a frickin sweet laser sword and thats all that really matters

you got it chief
keep the good shit cold for me

[chiseler]

can't say I've ever met a cyborg or a robot so I'll take your word for it and pretend it sounds even remotely possible
on the other hand I'd love a laser sword. that sounds pretty awesome

but roger that, I'll do my best
