THE AMNESIA MEME

Ah, amnesia. The old standby for soap operas, it usually involves a good knock on the head and a complete loss of memory. Ever wanted to do that to your character? Well, now's your chance. (VIA jading

1. Comment with your characters! 2. Others comment. Optionally, go to RNG and roll the scenario. (As to who gets knocked on the head, well, that's up to you!) 3. ??? 4. PROFIT.

1. HEAD-ON COLLISION - ...whoops. It was an honest mistake, really! You didn't see that car/tree/post/person/whatever coming, but now you're stumbling out of the wreckage sans memory. Better ask for help. 2. WAIT, WHO ARE YOU? - Okay, so a while ago, you got into...something that caused you to lose your memory. Fortunately, you managed to get by and create a new identity for yourself. Unfortunately, someone new has just entered your life. Or should I say, someone who's a little too familiar... 3. RINSE AND REPEAT - Sigh. Really, this is just so inconvenient. You wake up everyday with no memory of who you are, and have to figure it out over the course of the day, only to fall asleep and have to do it all over again the next day. Good thing someone's there to help you out, right? And what's with all those post-its and notes? 4. THIS ROOM'S TOO WHITE - Welcome to the hospital. You've got an "Unknown" tag on your wrist, a healthy diet of bland hospital food, a steady trickle of doctors coming in to check up on you, and a TV, and nothing else. Looks like someone's coming to help you today, though! Here's to hoping they knew you before you lost your memory. 5. I'M SUPPOSED TO DO WHAT?! - Oh, crap. There's something only you can do right now--that is, the you who didn't lose your memory, anyway. Better figure out a way out of this mess and how to control your strange abilities before it's too late. 6. FIGHTING FOR THE WRONG SIDE - Uh, oh. Looks like your enemies decided to take advantage of your confused state and convinced you that you're on their side. Here's to hoping your allies can get you back to yourself before you cause some serious damage. 7. JUST TOO TRAUMATIC - You just saw something that's so traumatic you lost your memory because of it. Unfortunately, right now, you have to remember it, or else something really bad happens. Hope you don't regret remembering this! 8. I DON'T WANT THIS - You've been living a peaceful, ordinary life, for a while. And you'd rather it stay that way, because you're not sure if you'd want to remember what went before. Unfortunately, something's coming, and the key to stopping it lies in your memories. 9. NO SUCH THING - Maybe you were a wizard, or a werewolf, or an angel, or a demon, or something else entirely before, or maybe you just knew about the masquerade. Sadly, you've been knocked on the head and now believe yourself to be a perfectly ordinary person. Magic? That doesn't exist, right? Anything can be explained with science, after all! Right? 10. I'M WHO?! - And who the hell are you? Basically, this is the wild card option! Combine one of the above or make up a new one or whatever you want! Go wild!

[ It's four long days before they find him.

Herc had seen Striker's blip go out on the radar the moment Pentecost had detonated the payload in the Breach, but before that there had been a signal, albeit a weak one—an escape pod had been jettisoned, and there had been no doubt in Herc's mind that Stacker had made a last-ditch, last-minute effort to save his son. Following the detonation blast the pod's signal had become lost, though, and when both pilots of Gipsy Danger resurfaced but not Chuck, Marshal Hansen started a massive search underway, both above and below the surface of the water, spanning from Hawaii to the South China Sea.

For nearly four days—nothing.

And then a report comes in of a Jaeger pilot's capsule having washed up on Wake Island in the North Pacific, a twelve-mile ring-shaped coral reef that happens to be a missile site for the United States Air Force, and Herc, Mako and Raleigh board a flight immediately from Hong Kong.

Mako tells Raleigh that he doesn't have to be there—he's seen everything he needed to see and many things that he didn't in the Drift, and she doesn't want to put him on the spot or make him uncomfortable with the situation, but Raleigh insists on accompanying her, arguing that he's her copilot and he goes where she goes.

It's only when they land on the island and arrive at the medical wing and see the patient for themselves, that the full truth comes to light—during his brief periods of wakefulness, Ranger Chuck Hansen has been diagnosed with retrograde amnesia and remembers nothing; not of the Breach, not of Jaegers, not of kaiju.

Herc and Raleigh have gone to grab a bite to eat as Chuck dozes in his hospital bed, but Mako sits patiently by his side, waiting for him to awaken again. She has talked to him already for scant, short minutes during his last wakeful period, trying to get him to remember, but not even the sight of Herc jogs Chuck's memory, and she finds herself growing increasingly despondent.

He doesn't even know his own father; why would he recognize her, even if they'd spent the last few hours before the final drop together in one another's arms? ]

[It'd taken Kon about three days to find Bart. Three very, very long days of pouring through every news article known to man; exploring Bart's last known locations; and generally trying to pinpoint where his best friend had disappeared off to. Kon knew Bart hadn't died. They'd both already died once. He couldn't have died again. Not this soon, and definitely not on a mission like this.

Frankly, Kon didn't expect to find Bart on the top floor of this building either, but the secretary had eagerly recognized him (and then promptly asked for Bart's number). Goddammit. Even when Bart had amnesia, he was still scoring better with the ladies than Kon ever did. What, did Kon have to hit himself on the head and lose his memories too?

The second he reaches Bart, Kon gives an awkward half-wave.] Hey. How's it going? [No sense in scaring Bart if he really has forgotten his best friend.]

You know something's bad when backup has to be called in from another country. Joshua runs into the B&B, panic on his face. "Claudia?"

Ok, so calling for her when she's been Artifacted into forgetting who she is probably isn't the best idea ever.

((If she has lost her memory it's likely because she almost really really died in the way of her brain getting mostly destroyed, and when she regenerated much of her memory reset. :|))

"Claire?"

Sylar had stolen the report from Danko, about the attack on the home of people with abilities. He had made his way down to check on the victims, to see if any were alive or intact enough to steal their abilities before the team arrived. There were no names and only the vaguest descriptions of possible victims. Nothing mentioned the young blonde, drenched in blood and yet still living, because she always was.

The killer crouched down beside her, sliding a bloodied strand of her hair back from her face. For all his threats, some part of him did care if she lived or died. They were connected, after all.
