DEATHBED CONFESSION MEME

The Deathbed Confession Meme

Post with your character's name and other information in the subject line. Make sure that if you have any preferences or triggers, you make them known.

The person who just tagged you is slowly dying and doesn't have much time left. How slow depends on the situation: maybe they have just a few weeks, a few days, a few hours. They called you in for something important.

It's time to set things straight.

Head over to RNG and roll yourself one of these options, or just pick one at will! A lot of these overlap with each other, so you don't have to stay in the exact bounds of one if characterization says otherwise.

  1. I'm not who you think I am: Maybe you actually are leading a double life, and the identity they know as you isn't really you. Or maybe this is something more innocent: they've gone so long without knowing your past, and it's time you fixed that. It's time they saw your true self.
  2. I always loved you: You never told them, scared of what would happen if your feelings went unrequited. But you don't dare move on without telling them how you really feel.
  3. I never loved you: It was all a lie. You feel terrible about having led them on like this, and at least this way you can die with a clear conscience.
  4. Lost time: Maybe you never got to take that trip you wanted to go. Maybe you just never spent as much time as you wanted with them. Whatever the case, it's time to at least try to move toward making up now.
  5. Regret: Maybe you killed their parents. Maybe you bullied them as children, or stole everything from them. But you've wronged this person, and it's time to ask their forgiveness so you can make amends before you die.
  6. I did it: Similar to the one above; you've wronged this person in your past. But unlike #5, they're unaware of your transgression. The secrecy has been too much to bear.
  7. I'm really an alien spy: Obligatory silly crack choice! Did you take the last cookie from the cookie jar? Farted in your roommate's shower? Well, you better tell them now.
  8. Other: Combine some of the above choices or make one of your own.

Do not mock his sentiment or he will withdraw very quickly. He lets go, but remeains close. His body leans upon am arm that stays by her side. What will happen now, though? You know he's not going to say it. He refuses to ask it. He doesn't want it, of course! What a silly insistance.

"I can't but agree."

She leans a little closer to him as well, smiling. She's not making light of it, she's just telling him he doesn't have to do everything for her. He doesn't have to say more than he has, or ask for it.

"Where could I go for a quest?" she mused out loud. "My doctor says I shouldn't travel, but I have been wanting to defy them for the last week."
