No More Secrets Meme

Good evening meatship, I bring you your Friday meme!

No More Secrets

1. All of your character's darkest and most embarrassing secrets, the ones that they have been holding back from the crew, are now common knowledge.

2. Since not everyone knows everyone's canon, comment with your character and a bulleted list of the things they have been holding back from the crew. These can be funny things (that time I ran around with my underwear outside my pants), embarrassing things (Little Black Book-type secrets) or the dark things they never wanted anyone to know.

3. Other characters react to these sudden revelations about your character. Will it change the way people feel about each other?

IMPORTANT: PLEASE POST WARNINGS IN THE SUBJECT LINE IF SOMETHING IN THE COMMENT IS TRIGGERY. This meme has the potential to be a lot more dramatic than our usual fare, and I want to make sure everyone is comfortable.

Muns, have fun! Characters... well, I'm not sure "fun" applies.

Triggers: Mind-control rape.

-...he was mind-control-raped. When he detonated incoming missiles with a fireball to save his comrades, the blast killed him, but his enemy saved his life and placed him under several mental compulsions -- including one that forced him to sleep with her. He woke up one day completely unaware of this, in bed next to her, and fled immediately -- but the memories returned swiftly and painfully over time.
-He's crushing hard on Celena. On his home world, dragons are incredibly rare, possibly extinct, and are said to be the forerunners of all magic. Then one abruptly showed up at his lab one day -- polite, intelligent, and extremely curious about the magical arts and in general. Is it really surprising?
-He WAS crushing on Vita. But that's settled down now.
-...he's kind of a lonely guy in general. To the point where he's cheerfully attempting experiments that could kill him without much pause for reconsideration, on the basis that it doesn't matter if he dies, only that other people live.
-...Wisdom was his dump stat, not Charisma.

...you like the dragon?

...She's smart, friendly, curious, has magical skill and capability... what's not to like?

...there's some horrible secret you're about to tell me, aren't you.

No horrible secret. I'm just surprised.

[identity profile] for-magic.livejournal.com 2011-01-22 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
Whew.

Why surprised? What's better to look for in someone than shared interests and a feeling of connection?

There is the fact that you're an elf and she's a dragon. It's not impossible on my world; in fact, it's happened at least once.

Can she polymorph?

[identity profile] for-magic.livejournal.com 2011-01-22 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
There is no graceful way to ask that question of her.
governorkang: (Now that's funny / Smirking)

[personal profile] governorkang 2011-01-22 05:18 am (UTC)(link)
Depends on the situation.

[identity profile] for-magic.livejournal.com 2011-01-22 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
To clarify. There is no graceful way to ask that after I already gave her more inadvertent knowledge of this particular trend of my feelings than I had intended.

Please, take a moment to laugh.

That was the darksoul's fault, not yours.

[identity profile] for-magic.livejournal.com 2011-01-22 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
The second time, yes, it was.
governorkang: (Neutral)

[personal profile] governorkang 2011-01-22 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
...there was another time?

[identity profile] for-magic.livejournal.com 2011-01-22 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Yes.

I may have sort of accidentally said out loud that if we kept having such pleasant, long conversations, the next one might involve a candlelit dinner.

This is why I said, take a moment to laugh.
governorkang: (Having fun)

[personal profile] governorkang 2011-01-22 05:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Okay yeah, he's going to start laughing now.]

[Aibghalien cannot blame him in the slightest.]

And her response?

"Yes, you DID say that out loud."
