bakerstreet | You're All I Know

an amnesiac shipping meme

You have no idea who you are.

One day, you just woke up from the darkness, confused and alone. You barely remember your own name, much less why you're here...or where here is, even. Your own body is strange to you, and if you have some kind of power or ability, that must be frightening. Perhaps you're angry at everything so new and different, lost in this strange world you don't understand or know your own place in. Maybe you feel the need to hide away, lest you be crushed by everyone out there who is sure to hurt you.

You are so, so alone.

Only you're not. There is one person, one person who's found you and taken you in. They've shown you kindness, looking after you while you can barely look out for yourself. Out of the goodness of their heart, they've shown you things, taught you things. Most importantly, they're giving you a new sense of identity. And for that, you've begun to appreciate them. More than words can say, actually. You care for them so deeply that your heart hurts around them. Is that normal? What is this feeling? You can't imagine life without them, and leaving them- That's something you could never consider. Is this lov...

The word's on the tip of your tongue, but you can't figure it out, exactly. What you can figure out is that you want to give everything you can to the person who's done so much for them. You want to stay by their side and make them happy. You want to protect them at all costs.

So no one would blame you for getting confused when you see them with someone else or getting angry when you believe they're in danger. And certainly it's only natural for you to get frustrated when you want to tell them what you think of them, what they mean to you, and you can't figure out what to do. Perhaps following instincts will do?

One thing you know is that this bond and these emotions will never go away, not even when you learn who you are.

RULES
- This meme is for examining what happens when someone with no memories, potentially someone with powers or skills that could be dangerous at the very least, develops deep feelings for the person who's taken them in or is helping them realize their past. It can be played as awkward, adventurous, tragic, cracky, fluffy, truly romantic, or anything in between. You can play at the beginning, the part where emotions have strongly developed, or even when the amnesiac has regained their memories and must now deal with new feelings.
- Reply with your character and preferences. Mention if you'd like to play the amnesiac, the caretaker/help, or both.
- The role of caretaker does not have to always be beneficial. Maybe they caused this condition in the first place so the other character would be dependent, loving, and loyal towards them.
- Reply to others and play.

[He's been here, done this before in canon, so that'd make it pretty easy.]

[I mean, maybe Damon neglected to let Stefan know they're kinda sorta brothers... Things happen. Living an awkward life of domesticity in their house. :I THAT'S ALL I GOT.]

[Offering him a chilled blood bag from the ice box in the basement]

Here, you need to keep up your strength.

[The more fucked up the better tbh.]

[no memories plus his powers could be an interesting combo]

(OoC: Any preferences?)

[Mostly likely, she's the caretaker, though a good idea for amnesiac could be made. Want to start us off?]

(OoC: Sure!)

How long had it been since she'd been found? A good month? Maybe that was too much, but for the blunette, it certainly felt like forever. Even moreso towards the girl who'd found her and (tried to) take care of her. She wasn't the best, but she could handle it. Too bad it seemed that nothing could be found of her past identity except for a brief name - "Marie".

"It feels... hopeless." she uttered, sighing. "I don't think anyone's looking for me."

[ The facility Peggy had been vetted by Nick Fury himself, and as Sharon signs in, she spots his alias. Natasha and Maria have been here, too, also under aliases. There's Steve's name, too, bold and firm and unafraid. His signature is the reason she signs only her first name, not wanting to rouse questions that might end up blowing her cover. The staff here know her, anyway, just as they know Nick, Natasha, and Maria, if not always their real names. But she's glad that so many people take time to visit Peggy, glad the staff knows that there are people who care about her and will raise hell if Peggy's meals are undercooked or her pills are given to her an hour late.

She pauses outside Peggy's door, touching up the flowers in the vase. She never knows how much Peggy will remember, or if Peggy will even remember her at all. She's learned to accept it.

Sharon pastes a smile on her face and shoves her way into the room. ]

Morning! How are you today?

((He'd be the caretaker. Gender is no object since he wouldn't be returning any feelings anyway.))

[ooc: Heads up, I'm slow on tags right now, but I can usually get one in every other day if not one or two a day, depending on the day. Can be the amnesiac or not, either way. I'm not all that great with slash but if you want to be patient with me and are good with no guarantees that it'll be quality, TW characters, I'll give it a whirl.]

[ probably the caretaker/help, although she most likely isn't very good at it. she tries. ]
