The Possession Meme

The world beyond - some people linger far longer than they should. Perhaps you've gone to the wrong place at the wrong time. Perhaps you were stupid enough to invoke ritual. Maybe you decided to let someone else muck about your brain and now find yourself with someone -- or something -- sharing your body.

Bust out RNG and go crazy

 

Triggers possible below the cut. Enjoy!

WHAT:

1: DEMONIC; yeah, something from the bowels of hell is currently shacking up in your body. This is not a good thing. It probably has an ulterior motive. Worse, you may be aware of every terrible, horrible thing it's doing in the name of it's unholy master.

2: ANGELIC; angels need vessels to do certain works, this is usually less possession and more partnership, but it could be a long term thing you can't escape. Either way, angels may not be the most welcome of partners-- especially if they're angels of the lord's wrath, or death...

3: SPIRIT; perhaps you invoked Unknown Power or maybe a Loa rides you now as it's servant, asking you to honor it and gain it's bounty. Either way, it's pulling your strings as often as you are.

4: GHOST; possessed by the long dead means that you probably believe that you're that person, that their force of personality has overcome your own and now, they must mete our some revenge or perhaps, see some long forgotten work finished. Hope it's benign...

5: TECHNOLOGIC; it's not a ghost, no! You've somehow become overwritten by an AI, or perhaps you volunteered to have another personality put into your body as a means of control computers, or maybe you've becoming the ghost in the machine through a freak accident with no flesh of your own, but instead, wires and cables and the internet at your mental command.

6: WILDCARD; angels, animal spirits, elemental spirits, and other types not covered here, or figure osmething out on your own.


WHY:


1: LOVE; maybe it craves it, maybe it wants to see it live, maybe you're supposed to guide two lovers to be together-- but LOVE drives this spirit.

2: LUST; the obligatory smut prompt. The spirit craves the flesh, and all it's pleasures. Who can blame it, really?

3: HATE; this is an angry spirit - an unchecked demon or a psychopathic spirit, or a spirit who demands blood for the blood gods! Either way, you're going to be causing harm, seeking a vent for all this pent up hate.

4: GRIEF; this creature is full of sorrow; a ghost may simply want forgiveness for past sins, while a demon may wish to drive a man to suicide by ruining his life. Either way, sorrow is at the root of it's problems.

5: WORK; it's not finished! Whether it's a temple or a great piece of art, a final work is undone. Will the demon ride you until the last artifact is found and it's dread master come to earth? Or will the AI run your weak flesh to exhaustion trying to save the world?

6: JOY; it's free, it's free! Now, to dance, frolic and sing! To make merry and to bring joy! Maybe the angel that rides you exists to bring good works to mankind and create miracles? Maybe a benign spirit simply wants to make people happy has partnered with you and shared it's gifts and secrets. Either way, it's not so bad having this particular bodily roommate.

7: MISCHIEF; Peeves the Poltergeist tips his hat to your ride! They like to make trouble. Maybe a lost child that died before its' time now rides your skin and uses your body to create pranks and silliness. Maybe the loa demand that people lighten the fuck up. Who can say. They're hard to understand, those spirits.



8: IT'S COMPLICATED: some spirits are a pain in the ass, and it's hard to tell what they want. It's a wildcard option. Go for it.

That seems rather hypocritical.

[thatboyisamonster]

I never said Asgard was better. Pay attention.

computer was of the dead, sorry

[gold_titanium_man]

Then what are you comparing it to?

np

[thatboyisamonster]

What comparison is there to make?

[gold_titanium_man]

You said a planet like mine. If you're not comparing it to anything, then you've gotta stop being so idealistic.

[thatboyisamonster]

That's a strange accusation.

[gold_titanium_man]

You are, aren't you? That's the reason you do everything, you're a perfectionist and if it doesn't fit with your terms of perfect, you destroy it.

[thatboyisamonster]

I suppose that's as good a reason as any.

[gold_titanium_man]

You're an asshole, too.

[thatboyisamonster]

You could try putting more effort into your insults.

[gold_titanium_man]

Doesn't change things.

[thatboyisamonster]

By that logic, you should be unchanged.

[gold_titanium_man]

By your own logic I still haven't figured out why you're still here. You must enjoy my company or are after something.

[thatboyisamonster]

Your new found status makes me amusing for me to watch you fret. Is he going to kill me? Isn't he? What worse can he do?

[gold_titanium_man]

Well, the worse you could do would be to take my mind and turn me against the world. [yep, he actually gave that thought before] What I'm more fretting about is if you're more bag of cats or single cat.

[thatboyisamonster]

And that concerns you?

[gold_titanium_man]

Only a little.

[thatboyisamonster]

And you wonder why you're not a fan favourite.

[gold_titanium_man]

You got your facts mixed.

[thatboyisamonster]

Not quite. I don't need to kill you, Stark. You have enough enemies to do the work for me.

[gold_titanium_man]

Then perhaps you can get on with whatever you did come here for so I can get back to making machines to stop you.

[thatboyisamonster]

[ snaps his fingers and a good chunk of machines fall apart ]

I'm sorry. What machines?

[gold_titanium_man]

You're fixing all of that. [glare]

[thatboyisamonster]

Am I now.

[gold_titanium_man]

Yeah, because I don't come uninvited into your house and wreck all of your magic.
