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.

If Azula had any memories at all, she would have said that the last thing she remembered was pleading with the Spirits to take her away from the prison she'd been thrown in since her defeat. And they had obliged her request for a fresh start in every way possible--including wiping her mind completely so that she could have a fresh start.

They had taken her to another world, far far away from her homeland and the mental asylum she'd been confined to. She knew no one here, and no one here knew her. It was exactly what she'd asked for, by the letter. But that's the problem with making deals with Spirits--they give you exactly what you ask for, whether that's what you intended to happen or not.

Cold. The cold, all around him. The light is only a fracture inside the space, only a bit to look at, and what he can see is just the little bit of ice around the edges, before the blackness that rings him takes it. He closes his eyes. The cold is deep in his bones.

There's a voice, speaking low and soft. Gentle. Words, that reach through the cold and touch his mind and he thinks he knows the voice. He doesn't know the words. Maybe he knows the voice.

"Asset."

He opens his eyes. The light is all around and it feels like burning, like it's all burning away the cold. Can't burn it all. But it's bright enough to try.

He sighs, and breaths.

"Asset."

His eyes follow the voice, and there's the man. He does not know the man. But his body turns towards them, and he feels his breath turning easier, his lungs moving up and his eyes are brighter, his body a little straighter.

"Sir."

"Good." he nodded in satisfaction as the captain finally responded to him, taking a moment to inspect the newly awakened asset, studying him closely for any signs of injury or damage done by the ice, and for signs of recognition in the captain's eyes. It was a delicate balance between ensuring the asset recognised him as his commanding officer, and making sure he didn't recall anything else.

"Do you know who I am?" he asked briskly, watching closely as he waited for his answer. He knew the correct answer, and he knew the punishment for an incorrect answer, and that was all he needed to know - he might have been in charge here, but he was just as much property of Hydra as the asset standing before him.
