So this is how the mortal world ends. [ A soft spoken voice accompanied by a gentle sigh afterward. ] Well, that's what I would prefer to believe. That this is the after-life because how could a person forget everything about themselves? I'm scared.. because what if I can never recover what's been lost? I want to know about my parents, my friends, my life.. What did I enjoy doing at school and was I ever in love... yes, those are the memories I need to remember right away.

[ Lifting one of her arms in the view of the camera briefly, she looks over the bandages that are covered in her blood. ]

Oh. [ The realization hits her quick and she hides her arm again. ] Could you put my mind at ease and maybe tell me what you have remembered?

---

[ Later in the evening as the sun begins to set, Caren can be found wandering along one of the harbors aimlessly. It seems she has no real goal in her steps as they often change paths. It doesn't appear as though she's exploring much of anything though, golden eyes staring off at something in the distance. ]

[ You know, Caren. You should really pay attention to your surroundings. Because just as soon as she finishes passing that last street lamp, she may or may not run into a certain someone that was just sort of standing there, minding his own business. And totally not staring off into space either. Nope. He'll let out a simple grunt before turning to glare at her. ]

Hey, watch it. Can't go bumpin' into strangers this late. Might think you're tryin' to start a fight or something.

[action] die a thousand deaths..

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

[ She's got a bad feeling about this, but just like that person who says that in every movie, she's going to continue to linger by. ]

No one would think such a thing. I'm a pretty petite lady after all. [ Raising a brow. ] Unless you're the type who scares easily?

[action] <Have a nice dream>.

[zeronotone.livejournal.com]

[ Thankfully, Avenger can't feel a thing!

You know. Until it's too late.

Just like all dem horror movies. ]

Don't you know anything? It's always the non-conspicuous ones ya gotta look out for. I mean, you could've totally just stabbed a knife into my back or something.

[ He's joking, of course. He's just an ass. ]

[action] goodnight sweet prince

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

[ Oh but how she feels it. Cringing in pain, tiny hands go to grab at her arms as thought she could contain the pain to herself. ]

Is it? [ Well, she never thought of stabbing anyone before.. to her recollection which is fairly shady. ] Well, there's not a knife on my person, so your assumption is incorrect.

[action]

[zeronotone.livejournal.com]

So you say.

[ Always suspicious of everyone. ...He's not really sure why, but he's just going with the flow. Especially since he's half-noticing her randomly being in pain, not that he can decipher what that she's actually experiencing from here. ]

Besides, why would a pretty missy like you be out for a stroll at this time? It's already getting pretty dark.

[action]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

Do you wish to check for yourself?

[ Perhaps she shouldn't provoke this boy, but there are some things that can't be helped. Maybe if he drew close enough, he could see she's in pain and help her instead. ]

I enjoy the cool air of night.

[action]

[zeronotone.livejournal.com]

[ Yeah, probably not the best thing to offer to the embodiment of evil. The worst part is that he's actually considering it. Among several other things that suddenly make home in his mind. ]

...Yeah, why not? Never hurts to be careful, right? You could be hiding something up your sleeve.

[ Which is the first thing he's going to check out. Incoming hand to arm action. Brace for impact. ]

[action]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

[ The sickening feeling overwhelms her as she stumbles back away from him, as if it were instinct to protect him from something. ]

N-No, you shouldn't touch me! [ That cool demeanor of her's has long since left. ] I just feel really sick right now and I should take my leave.

[zeronotone.livejournal.com]

[ Well, that's certainly a weird defense mechanism.

UNLESS SHE'S BEEN PLANNING THIS THE WHOLE TIME.

logic, avenger. how does it work. ]

...Yeah, great. I bet you were just waiting to get me close enough so you could scream "HELP ME" and then kill me saying it was out of self defense, right? Maybe I should give you a reason to actually scream for.

[ Too bad that he's actually going to approach her like a rabid dog now. Even with the darkness setting over the town, there's something in his eye. Something that's probably not such a good thing for either of them. ]

Whoa, whoa, hey. Let's slow down and not to jump to too many concl--

[And then he sees the bloody arm.]

WHAT THE--?!

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

Is there a problem or do you just make it a habit of never finishing your sentences?

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

Of course there's a problem! Look at your arm! How can you remain calm when your arm looks like that?!

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

It's hard to react when I don't remember why my body is like this.

[ Yes, her body. Not just her arm. ]

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

Still, you shouldn't just act so carefree! At least try to go to the hospital or some--

...Wait. You mean your entire body?

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

Please, give me a moment.

[ Then the phone was placed camera-down on top of her bed. After a bit of shuffling, it was lifted not even a minute later to show the nude girl. Don't worry, she's mostly covered in bloodied bandages. ]

Yes.

[ No, it does not click once in her mind that this may be totally inappropriate. ]

I don't know why I would visit a hospital...

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

[Insert massive mental keysmashing here.]

WH-WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?!

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

Talking with some boy who seems incapable of staying on topic I suppose..

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

Th-that's because you go and do things like THAT! Don't you see how inappropriate that is?!

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

You inquired so I thought it appropriate to show you.

[ A pause. ]

... Are you taking advantage of my naive personality? You should be ashamed of yourself.

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

WHAT?! No way! Why would I have told you it was inappropriate if I was doing that?!

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

Is it not commonplace for the victim to be ridiculed into believing it to be their fault so that they don't report the crime?

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

No. I would NEVER do that! I wouldn't so much as stand for that!

[Congrats, Caren. You just awakened his righteous determination.]

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

[ Good going, Caren. ]

Then what do you call your current behavior?

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

What do I call it? This is confusion and embarrassment!

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

I'm the one who's being ridiculed for being nude and injured... what right do you have to claim confusion and embarrassment?

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

Whoa, wait a second! Who's ridiculing you?!

[WHOOSH.]

[Video]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

Aren't you?

[Video]

[wontdieifkilled.livejournal.com]

What? No way! I wouldn't ridicule a girl in your situation -- or anyone else!

[ video ]

[fatedmagica.livejournal.com]

I-It's okay... I'm sure you'll begin remembering soon... I'll do what I can to help, so--



Ah-!!! Miss, are you okay!?

[ video ]

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

[ Oh Madoka, why are you so sweet to those who really don't deserve it? ]

I don't know. They didn't mention these injuries when I was at the lab.. I only just discovered them when I returned to my apartment.

[survival-101.livejournal.com]

I haven't remembered anything particularly uplifting, but seems like most people don't come from the same place. Hope you weren't planning on using it to jumpstart anything.

...don't have any stims, do you.

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

No, that wasn't my intention. I thought maybe if others talked about the--[ A drawn out breath. ]--unsettling things that they remembered, that it would help them feel better.

Stims..?

[survival-101.livejournal.com]

People do quite a bit of that regardless, so I'm sure you won't be lacking for opportunities.

Stimpaks? For your arm.

[promoteshell.livejournal.com]

I hope not. It would be interesting.

I don't know what you're talking about. I don't need that, do I?
