okay, I wanted to ask people about something (⊃д⊂) what if one of the things you "remember" is something really bad??? I mean like... criminal bad? …φ(。。*) how do you get that out of your head? honestly I get queasy when someone draws my blood, and these memories are way worse. in relates news I guess I'd like to talk to anyone who has been getting memories of like... fighting and stuff, you know? or I guess memories of old-timey stuff too (ㆆᴗㆆ)

mmm yeah it's starting to seem that way
I'm kind of afraid of what the next memory is going to be at this point
at least in this memory I was only stabbing people's shoulders :/

Lucky you.

Whatever the next one's gonna be, you can pretty much guarantee it'll be worse. We're all just playthings to Retrospec, they'll probably scramble our brains with all sorts of terrible fake memories just to see how we cope with it.

[spes_phthisica]

you're not very optimistic about this, huh?
then again, I can see why... and it's not like I think you're wrong. I remember thinking something like... if I stabbed people there it would make them easier to take out -_-
so yeah, it's probably going to get grimmer.

but honestly, even if it's awful, I hope the memories really are fake.

[frostythehitman]

Wait, you mean like

You thought that yourself, or you remember thinking that in one of the fake memories?

Anyway I'm gonna keep calling them fake memories because that's what they are, as far as I'm concerned.
They can't brainwash me into thinking this junk is real.

[spes_phthisica]

I was definitely thinking it in the memory.
after all I really was thinking was "please don't let me throw up"... but in the memory, it seemed so logical. like I was just being practical, you know?

that's probably for the best, though
I mean, I know I can't possibly have done something like that
but it just... felt so real （／_＼）

[frostythehitman]

Yeah, I get it. I had a similar one.

It could't possibly have happened but it doesn't keep it from feeling real. Or from circling around in your brain constantly.
