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.

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!

Waking up was actually a curse. Isaac's entire body seemed to burn, right under the skin. It wasn't sexy and it wasn't kind. Instead, it hurt like one would expect. A groan that rivaled a growl brought him all the way back. Panting, Isaac opened his eyes. First, he tested his fingers, then his toes, then worked his way to the middle of his body.

Speaking of, Isaac managed to sit up slightly. "Where....shirt?" He wondered, to no one in particular, because as far as he knew, he was alone.

[ When he came too he lay pinned down at the bottom of a river while his HUB warned of low oxygen levels. Instincts drove his initial actions and he abandoned the suit of armor fighting against the turbulent waters of the river to reach the surface and finally the bank where he passed out from exhaustion. This time when he came too he woke up in a hospital bed with an elderly nurse who patiently answered his frantic questions. Unfortunately, she could only tell him how he'd come into their care but not who he was or what had happened to him. After that the Chorus authorities had come in to question him and asked him questions he had no idea how to answer. They grew impatient with him until the doctors told him of the trauma to his head and the likely amnesia he was now suffering. They acknowledged the doctor's assessment of his state but they remained suspicious of him when his fingerprints, DNA, etc, came back with no match to any of their citizens. But, considering how much damage their civil war had wrought on such things as paper trails they could not pin the error on his status as a foreign invader or a simple matter of records being lost, so they released him unable to charge him with anything conclusive. After all, when they showed his picture to the other pirates they'd detained none of them recognized him proving once more that on the battlefield it was better to be paranoid. Long ago, he and Felix had wiped their records from the UNSC databanks giving them no ties back to their true identities. Their fingerprints, DNA, facial recognition - they had all been wiped giving them a clean slate from which to work with. The fact that Locus never allowed anyone but his partner to set eyes on him outside his armor had also giving him anonymity among his men and had now saved him from captivity.

The first few weeks had been difficult. He kept to himself, unsure what to do or where to go. It wasn't until months later that he carved out a decent existence living in a remote part of Chorus where he built a small cabin far away from civilization leaving him to live out his days in the silence of nature with a occasional trips into town where he traded scavenged equipment from the war torn world for credits he used to buy hardware he needed to decipher the log books he'd pulled from the suit he'd hauled out of the river and relocated to a cave system near his cabin. He was patient and slowly started to recover the logs from the damaged suit recounting his time in the UNSC when he served as a private in the Great War. And so, Locus, now going by Castille now, spent his days scavenging for equipment and his nights working on rediscovering his past through old logbooks he'd kept in the suit that remained his only link to his past. ]

Hope this works

[not_the_question]

Anyone who thought that the Doctor and River could go even a week without some kind of adventure didn't know them very well.

The Singing Towers provided quit the argument between "just the wind" and "nothing's ever just the wind." So, of course, they had to solve it scientifically. So they had gone to explore the cave systems to see who was more right. The Doctor was fairly certain he was, but he was not the sort to pass up the chance to go spelunking with his wife.

So they had gone and in their typical fashion, hadn't taken all the precautions that any normal human being would have.

Things were going along just fine. It was amazing and different to hear the sounds that the winds made when they blew through the caves. One would expect it to be very loud - since the sound could be heard all the way over at the restaurant. But it wasn't that loud.

The problem: loose rocks. As they were finishing their exploration for the day, the Doctor makes his way out of the cave, only the exit hole wasn't the same one they entered. It was about six feet off the ground and as he moved his foot to ease his way down, the loose rock moved under it.

It sent him crashing to the ground, head first.

After their last mission, Romanov's gone AWOL. Clint isn't exactly sure what happened-- there was an explosion, they were separated, and after he woke up back at the base he found out she'd never made it back to the evac spot. No sign of a body either, nothing. She'd just disappeared.

Nobody assigned him to this, but nobody was going to stop him either. As soon as he was able to roll out of bed he was out the door looking for his teammate. As the weeks rolled by he couldn't help but compare this to the first time he chased her around the globe, where he went off mission and offered her a choice. No matter what else has changed, she's still got that unnerving ability to hide, to create false leads. But now, after months of fruitless tracking, one of his tips has finally paid off. For the first time since last year he sees her again, sitting at a cafe in France like nothing ever happened.

Clint knows better than to just walk right up to her. She has her reasons for leaving, maybe, and it could be putting her in danger to draw any attention. Or she could just bolt. Better to test the waters. For twenty euros he's able to bribe the waiter to slip her a note that simply says:

'Your eleven.'

Ahead of her and slightly to her left, she'll find him leaning in the doorway of a bookshop in his black fatigues, watching her.

There were days when Claudia really didn't regret stabbing her boss. Ok, very few, because, really, having to use the dagger of Giles de Rey to exorcise the darkness etc. was no picnic, but when she drew the short straw on snags, there were times. Like this. Hell's Kitchen was an aptly named region of New York City, and she was supposed to be tracking its "devil." It didn't matter what argument she had put forth, Artie wanted to make sure that any more costumed whatevers weren't packing artifacts like that one geek calling himself Iron Shadow had been.

Still, tracking a ghost like that was hard work, and not really a priority when most of the people who saw this Daredevil were either grateful for his aid or too concussed to be reliable witnesses. That was part of why she'd drawn the short straw. Being the one agent without a badge sucked. But what really sucked was that she'd been chasing a lead when the guy she was tracking literally crashed down in front of her. Well, on a nearby pile of trash bags and boxes and things clogging the alleyway she'd been cutting through.

"Shit!" she cursed, looking up to see whether she was going to be getting more company from the rooftops. Then she moved quickly to his side, more muttered curses escaping her as she tried to figure out where to check for a pulse. "Don't be dead..."

yolo scorpius malfoy so stop it with the charms, alright?

[ryeful]

Somewhere around noontime, on Saturday, Albus Severus Potter noticed something that was awfully peculiar, near downright strange, and felt foolish for having slept in and then promptly not doing much of anything for the following few hours, so, perhaps, he could be forgiven for having not noticed his best mate had been, well, missing for much of the day.

Or, at the very least, was incredibly late for lunch.

Al fidgeted in his seat and picked at a piece of sausage with about as much enthusiasm as he could muster under the circumstances. Six years of predictability didn't mean he had a direct link into Scorpius' mind, but it should count for something. Shouldn't it?

Maybe there was traffic...really intense magical Floo congesting traffic? Or, just maybe, Scorpius was lying around in bed sick and Al hadn't even bothered to check there first before leaving for lunch.

Which would be his fault. Sighing, Al dropped his napkin on the table and stood up, paying out his bill and then left for home, where, hopefully, he'll find that Scorpius really was just running late...

There was a first time for everything.
