Group B members should comment under this top-level for plotting purposes.

Jeff Calhoun

[bardish]

GROUP B REPRESENT

Jeff will definitely be wandering around the town trying to find any trace of the people who've seemingly been spirited away, or any clues as to what might have happened to them. Penhew House and Baneberry Hall will be the two primary locations I'd like to focus on with him, since they'll both stir some of his major not-so-buried issues.

Some vague starter ideas, though none of this is guaranteed to happen:

• Jeff having a total freakout meltdown when he notices THINGS in reflections at Penhew House, because boy is that a trigger for him.
  
• Spending way too much time obsessing in Baneberry Hall because it feels like a warped reflection of his time in inpatient treatment, and will definitely start cracking at his totally cool and stable demeanor!
  
• Possssssssibly feeling some temptation to jack the drugs, like, for the good of the community, they could come in handy, you never know. It'd be great to have someone come in and startle/interrupt him before he can do anything he'll definitely regret.
  
• Experiencing others' memories! I'm all for memory share, let's do it! Everyone's welcome to Jeff's memory, as well, because I'd love to shake up his image of just being a sweet golden retriever.
  
• Jeff's own item is a pair of Birkenstocks, with the attached memory of his much younger self... basically leading on and lying to the boyfriend he (secretly) had in rehab, telling him that they'll be together forever, and he'll wait for him, and etc etc all while knowing he was never going to come back to visit him again. All things considered, it's a fairly mundane memory, but it's a nice glimpse into the fact that Jeff's capable of being a total piece of shit 👍
  (I'll write up a more coherent narrative version of it in my top level okay)

idk as always I'm up for anything! These are just some initial ideas as I wake up and drink coffee

[descendent]

hello!!! we do not have cr yet so i figure this is the perfect time to snag it! his shoe sense is fantastic so if you're up for someone he doesn't know finding his birkenstocks and seeing his memory, we can go that route! (elena would try and find him to give him his birkenstocks. no one else can pull them off, clearly.)

[bardish]

ooh yes, what a fun way for them to meet! I'm all for Elena being the one to ultimately return his cursed birks to him. FINALLY, SOMEBODY WHO APPRECIATES HIS FOOT FASHION

[descendent]

that's perfect! i'll zip over to you once i see you on the log and we can make magic and excellent footwear happen! c:

[citharede]

Grabby!!! Hands!!!!!

I’ll get more coherent when I’m more conscious. I kinda sorta rly want Athena and Jeff to experience each other’s memories tho bc the parallels.

[bardish]

ME AND MY MELTING BRAIN SAY YES

I think for the sake of my own mental timeline, Athena's will be the first memory item he picks up, because he would 1) recognize her shirt and 2) refuse to touch it if he knew about the mem shares. TRYING TO RESPECT HER PRIVACY

[citharede]

PERF.

[setthetone]

soooo Carter would probably scour the place for anything useful, how about the good doctor catches him with the drugs? insufferable moralistic speech optional

[bardish]

WHAT A WAY FOR THEM TO MEET, let's do this! I'm very slowly getting some TLs written (after a very long hell week sob) so I should have them up later today for all the drug looting and moralistic speeches. I do want Jeff to come away with one bottle of pills, for future plot purposes, but he will feel appropriately shamed and take no more than that!

[setthetone]

EXCELLENT

I SHALL HIT YOU UP and yes absolutely let jeff take whatever you want for future plot purposes, this noodle couldn't stop him if he tried. which he won't. except with passive aggression and DISAPPROVAL i feel you so hard on hellweek i just finished one myself, i hope I get my TLs up tonight HOPE YOU CAN ENJOY THE WEEKEND NOW

elena gilbert

[descendent]

Elena's p much going to be hanging around Penhew House and Baneberry Hall. I figure two locations might be best for me to coordinate logistics for now but I can toss her anywhere. (I'm also eyeballing the Cottage.)

GENERAL
• Elena's going to be a lil sad about Yennefer and Five being gone as Yennefer was one of her good friends and Five was that little bitch you can't help but love. She's going to try and look for them, but I'll most likely save this for the next log since this one seems insane town-wise.

PENHEW HOUSE
• She's going to go looking for suits for Elijah because this is her project now.
• She'll find the experience here unsettling.
• Kind of looking to investigate/interact with the unsettling stuff, so looking for a partner in crime! (Or grime?)

BANEBERRY HALL
• Elena's never been to a place like this before, so she's going to find it overwhelming and be nosy af.
• Elena's item is her vervain necklace and it'll have this memory (tl;dr her aunt is turned into a vampire and is staked/sacrificed in front of her). (The guy in the memory is Elijah's brother, so that's nice.) The feelings from the memory would be panic, grief, and powerlessness. It's super traumatic for Elena and is the last memory she p much has before coming to Mathias. I'm happy for anyone to find her necklace and experience that memory. I don't want anyone taking the necklace off the property as I want to save that for Elena.
• I'm so keen to have her pick up people's items and experience memories! I don't want Elena to take any off the property unless that's what the player wants.

My plans are to do a tl for Baneberry Hall bc I'll write up the ~feelings~ of the memory and the endgame for the necklace and am happy to tag into anyone for things, incl. Baneberry!

[skladka]

Hello hello! The Darkling's pretty interested in Penhew, too--any interest in messing around with the mirrors as a prompt?

If there's no one gunning for seeing her memory, either, I'd completely be down for it!

[descendent]

Hello!!! We're doing it. 😌 Time to go check out if these pants make her butt look fat, Darkling! But on a serious note, Elena's had bad run ins with the shadows here, so I think this will be either the best thing ever wrt her realising that shadows aren't something to be afraid of or her receiving further proof that shadows really are something to be shit scared of.

(And I'm also happy for him to pick up her necklace! Sorry for the icky feelings... Really, the necklace does have happy memories!)

[skladka]

Excellent! I'm about to go on a writing spree now that I have free time, I'll do a closed starter for us on day 63! Memories and shadow shenanigans, oh my!

If it works for you, I think it would be neat for the Darkling to have seen her memory first and that's why he approaches her? What a great first impression : ' )

elijah mikaelson ( the originals )

[prevenance]

i don't have a lot of big plans here but some stuff:

• if you'd like to see elijah's memory, feel free. i'm fine with whomever seeing it even if it's kind of terrible as it's him killing his first love (who looks like elena because the tvd-verse is like that) when he's been newly turned into a vampire. what you're going to feel is hunger and bloodlust, want to rip her throat out and feed. you'll feel fulfilled and satisfied immediately after but when you realize who it is, there's will be a gaping sadness and guilt that you can't seem to shake. you'll feel like you're choking, like you've just killed the only person that loves you in your life and you'll feel like you're drowning.
  
• he'll probably wander to the old church and kind of pick around it since he's going to be curious about a building that shows up and is just in shambles.
  
• penhew house is gonna creep him out because it's so clean and it shouldn't be.
  
• he'll spend most of his time at baneberry hall and it's gonna bring back some unpleasant memories. he's been in house similar to that and he didn't want to go back.

Athena Carrigan

[citharede]

More lateness, more Starbucks.

I have no particular plans for Athena at the moment except that she's going to see the Darkling's memory and it's going to start stirring up some Heap Big Resentments she doesn't know she has that are aimed toward Your Average Human.

She might also try and look for some tunnels on the newly-opened side of things, to see if she can find any new connections/unlocked gates/etc. Not sure yet if such explorations will yield anything, but I'll keep y'all posted. D e f i n i t e l y going to be wigged out by the people in the mirrors, and probably by the restraints etc too. Though she will snipe some of them for Malcolm. And get a bunch of pills for him too. IT'S NOT LIKE SHE'S GETTING FOND OR SOMETHING.

Also, I think I might traumatize her with the finding of Will's body. So that could be a thing.

Her own object will be one of her favorite t-shirts, with the associated memory of her girlfriend being arrested with pills planted by the arresting officers--and Athena running away rather than trying to help. Once again, I'm game for anyone and everyone to see said memory.

[setthetone]

This dumb noodle can actually be a pretty good listener soooo maybe he can help her deal with Will's body trauma or bad memories?

Or maybe something about her Average Human issues? He knows all about being An Average Human. Being An Average Human is actually pretty great?? If not this time this might be interesting for the future too?

[citharede]

YES PLS I SAY TEN YEARS LATER. I'm working on getting her TLs up tonight AT LONG LAST so I would love to have one with Carter. I would love for future things with her Average Human issues. I don't know how much they're going to be in the open in this log, but I'm sure they inevitably will be more so. /steeples fingers

[setthetone]

EXCELLENT I SAY EVEN MORE YEARS LATER

I have lots of tagging time this weekend and then after next hellweek my summer break is here SO WE CAN HAVE ALL THE HUMAN ISSUES GALORE

The Darkling

[skladka]

Item wise, his ravkan coins and memory will be grabbed by Athena, but I'm interested in him picking up someone elses! He's not going to share his or his memory, however. Greedy.

As for places, he's going to be most interested in Penhew, specifically the shadows and mirrors. I'd love for some sort of thread where him and one other person try to figure things out/experiment! Maybe even further exploration down the line.

He's also going to find Baneberry Hall interesting, of course, given his aesthetic tastes--I'm up for him joining someone as they try to figure anything out.

Mostly I'm wide open, and pretty stoked Darkling's got the intro jitters off and is ready to go.

John Carter | ER; cw: suicide

[setthetone]

Penhew House
Boy oh boy! This is where Carter arrived when he first came to Mathias and man did he not miss this place?? He's gonna try and warn people off from messing with the mirrors too much because they kind of struck back last time and he had to fix up several people who got cut really badly.

Oh yeah. He also tried to perform a ritual to appease said angry mirror ghosts like the suck up he is. I'm not with these hooligans, sir, I swear Would be interesting if he could get into a debate with someone who is more adamant about fighting back. His own position in the medical food chain is sucking up and taking it and honestly, he doesn't want to piss off forces that can drag him off to fireland or send hellhounds to tear him to pieces. He's also still disturbed that the time loop turned people to arson so quickly. Look, he hates it here too but do you people have no self-preservation at all??

Baneberry Hall/Memshare; cw: suicide
He's a very emotional boy by default so I think he should definitely see some awful memories. I'm gonna shop around on y'all's comments but if you have something you want to hit him with, come at me!

His own memory is of a suicidal patient jumping off the hospital roof. He was just a med student back then and handled the case very very badly, then tried to talk her down but didn't succeed and saw the whole ordeal. It's some heavy shit with lots of potential additional triggers and I don't want to spring it on people unprepared so I'd prefer to only write a starter if there's a taker and I can talk through it with them first.

Carter's also definitely gonna search the place for anything helpful and pick at those locked cabinets for some sedatives.

[skladka]

I'd totally be down for the Darkling peering thru his memories if you're alright with that!

[setthetone]

Absolutely!

Is there anything around the subject matter you'd want me to stay clear of? I probably won't give a graphic description and focus more on the dialogue/Carter's emotions but lmk if there's anything I should pay attention to. Another important thing is that this patient is a trans woman and I know that can really hit home for a lot of us - is that still okay or something you'd rather not deal with in rp?

[skladka]

I'm all good with anything, go for it!
