I helped kill my best friend.

[thebomb]

[wingbound]

There was no one else who could.

[ it had to be us. ]

[ is he still torn up about it? yes. would he still fight for the same outcome, knowing the alternative went against everything the original survey corps stood for? also yes. ]

bad enough to require a content warning

[ptoma]

CW: gore, body horror

I got ripped open by a psychotic sentient robot so it could wear me like a costume.

Killed and made into a vampire for being a poser.

[nomadicflame]

[fellfurthest]

A poser?

The last remaining family member and only person I cared about died because of me

[disscaras]

All my dreams are ruined by a spikey blue teenager.

[mrtinker]

[ Sigh. ]

I hate that hegehog.

[fellfurthest]

I very much doubt a single hedgehog did all that.

I couldn't save him.

[thedevilsworkisneverdone]

"The next day..."

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

Sherlock's features don't change much, a small shift of the lips. "There must be something about sitting in that chair. I call it the 'Client Chair,' but everyone who sits there... Well..."

He makes an awkward kind of gesture. To show that "spilling everything" tends to happen from whomever sits there. "I've never sat there myself, I wonder what would..."

He shakes his head. One thing at a time. "I'm sure there are plenty of people you haven't been able to save. What made him special?"

Spent months as a child in a city where everyone was absorbed into a hive mind bacteria.

[changeyourself]

...I don't like talking about it.

[disscaras]

Did it get fixed or did you leave?

[Too bad. It's Talking About It time.]

my summoner was murdered and i had to keep working for the people who did it

[inferius]

[ wow. thanks for this. ]

[popestar]

I am sure if you had asked, Copia would have found a way to let you leave.

(( But, look, is he weirdly flattered by this? Sort of. ))

Was experimented on and injected with vampire blood that would've been fatal.

[bleude]

My father hunted me across the world like an animal for 10 years. Until I killed him.

[iceandlove]

[Shit like this makes him wish he smoked, honestly. But.]

...Anyone got a hip flask or something that they mind that I take a small drink from?

[He tries to make it sound like a joke, but his tone isn't in it.]

murdered, decapitated for a photoshoot, then embalmed and put on display for VIP ticket holders

[popestar]

(( You know, the usual. ))

[fellfurthest]

That's super metal, for what it's worth. Of you. Not them. They're obviously destined for worse.

Dragging my best friend on a crazy plan to stop the apocalypse got him killed. Great job there, me.

[inkedspell]

[convalesces]

Well, if you don't at least attempt to stop an apocalypse from happening, everyone will be dead, anyway. So your choices are kind of limited.

Got out of a cult-like criminal organization, so they made my uncle disappear as one last f-you.

[occultesque]

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[Sherlock is trying to not do drugs, due to his on revelation. He needs all the cases.]

I will need more information. Why don't you start with information about this organisation, how you got into it and how you left.

[Basically, tell him everything and don't be boring.]

all of her friends were killed, then revived and brainwashed, before she had to decide the (cont)

[bydaylights]

ultimate fate of the universe.

I grew a sense of compassion for mortals I'm supposed to prey on, and betrayed my entire kind for it

[afterthedream]

[ Ugh. Where's a long, glittery banner when you need it? They're scrambling to cover it up with anything on hand, and it's starting to look like an amateur's arts and crafts project here. ]

Captured and tortured by alien warlords.

[highboltage]

Her death.

[awfulgoodness]

[ His? Inconsequential. ]

My father sent me away and my brother watched.

[minimoffs]

My sister 5 killed my best friend 6. I deleted all memory of her existence & replaced him with a dog

[highfunctioning_sociopath]

[All the trigger warnings ALL OF THEM.]

A bunch of alternate-universe-mes laid waste to Earth.

[titlecard]

And I don't know if I'll ever really be able to atone for it.

raised by a cult to be their elite assassin but then they abandoned me

[tsavthearted]

It's real tragic stuff, you know? And don't even get me started on the stuff the cult put me through! Like, they're the ones that raised me, and I still knew from the very beginning that they were some real evil stuff! From the monthly sacrifices to the goddesses, and the torture they put me through while calling it training, and the long nights in the dungeons, and --

[ so on and so forth. The yapper cometh. ]

betrayed 3x, experimented on, and killed so close to freedom

[heroicdream]

[ so yeah. CWs abound for unethical human experimentation, related trauma, and murder ]

My son was taken from me by death, who was also my wife, while I slept.

[monstronaturae]

[ cw for child death, stillbirth, matricide maybe. it’s all connected. ]

Parents died when he was young, and the man who raised him treats him like garbage.

[shreddedbeef]

It's not that bad. I don't really remember my parents anyway, so...

Things could always be worse. I guess.

[dispense]

You're allowed to feel bad about it. You know that, right? It doesn't matter if things could be worse, it's still a lot.

The senior I had a crush on made me become a mole for her political extremist terrorist group.

[techwings]

...Though I can't say I regret it!

[She regrets it. By a lot.]

[hindleysabitch]

You sure that's the worst thing, lass? Pretty sure everything that came after that was a bit more shite than that.
