[text] there's so many generic pop punk angst lyrics i could use for this tbh

I'm taking a poll here, because I have no idea what to make of all these hallucinomemories.

Is anyone else remembering stuff from actual history? As in, straight out of the textbooks. I wasn't sure of it until I got my history final back, but there's a few questions on there that I didn't know the answer to and had to guess on, based on what I remembered. And I got them all right.

And if anyone else is remembering real history: are all of your hallucinomemories real? Because I'm pretty sure mine are a mix of real history and a bunch of crap they threw in just to mess with me.

Likely only to come up in a world history class, so no. Not too hard. Little disturbing, but easily addressed.

[frostythehitman]

Yeah, unless you meet an Ulgian in person.

[true_noir]

That would be awkward. I don't know that I've ever actually been there. I know 'of' it, but I haven't seen the shores of the Mediterranean from its beaches in my life.

[frostythehitman]

Oh great, so you don't even have any bit of connection to this place at all.

You basically just remembered a segment out of a history class.

[true_noir]

Basically? Yes, though I am fairly sure that someone the other me knows visited there at one point, and probably shot several people.

Definitely shot several people.

[ exCUSE ME? ]

What?

[ Which he follows up a few minutes later with: ]

I mean, who? Why?

[true_noir]

Someone attempting a coup d'etat, if I remember right. She was probably paid a great deal of money to interfere with the attempt. That's how it usually works in that sort of thing.

It's ... complicated.

[frostythehitman]

'She' meaning you? Or whoever you're remembering stuff from, anyway.

Was that your/her job? Stopping assassinations?

[true_noir]

In this case, she meaning the girl who did the shooting in this case. It is someone the 'other me' knows. And no. Her job was as an assassin, but assassins kill assassins sometimes, and the people who hire them.

This was one of those jobs.

[frostythehitman]

Okay, so you were an assassin trying to kill another assassin to stop her from killing someone in a coup?

How much do you remember about being an assassin?

[true_noir]

Much more complicated. There are three girls: Other Chloe, Kirika and Mireille. I don't know for sure if we were out to kill each other or if we were trying to become closer. The memories are too fragmented, too confused. Sometimes we were protecting each other, others one of them was pointing a gun at me.

But the other two, Kirika and Mireille, were probably the ones who killed a group of people financing a coup. So, they were stopping other, less powerful assassins or the like I think. Like I said, not there. It's like reading a history book, and knowing some of the story behind it.

[frostythehitman]

No one writes about assassin gossip in history books. Did you hear this through like the assassin grapevine or something?

[true_noir]

Maybe? I remember the facts, but I don't remember how I came to know them, if that makes sense. Well, as much as anything related to this makes sense anyway.

[frostythehitman]

Go figure. Not even the way we know stuff in our memories makes sense.

[true_noir]

it's the first time I've seen a vision like this, or not even so much as simply known. It's a little jarring.
