the betrayal/redemption meme
BETRAYAL MEME
You have done something unspeakable to the people closest to you. How did this come to be, and how will you make amends?
Instructions
Post with your character with their name, series, and whether you're the betrayer, the betrayed, or simply leave it blank! Then, either make up your own scenario to your liking, or use our prompts (RNG totally optional) and go wild!
(Example: for organization's sake, denote b3+2 where you killed someone and are trying to hide it or r5+3 for a situation where you side-hopped and now want nothing more than to make things right, so that people know at a glance whether you're betraying or being redeemed and what you did.)
betrayal; you've turned your back on everything you once stood for
1) you're innocent. it's not your fault, but they can never know. maybe you're protecting someone. maybe you're being blackmailed. whatever the case, it's your dark secret.
2) you're hiding. you've done something terrible, but no one knows it yet. how far will you go to bury what you've done for good?
3) you're uncertain. everything is in place now, but nothing's been set into motion yet. maybe it's not too late to turn back. or is it?
4) you're slipping. you thought you could change. maybe for a while you even managed to. but now you find yourself falling back to your old ways, and everyone around you is at risk.
5) you're reacting. they betrayed you first. you're not in the wrong. they deserve this. they brought this upon themselves. you're not really betraying anyone if they pushed first.
redemption; you've done something that can never be forgiven
1) you're trapped. they caught you red-handed, or maybe you turned yourself in. now those you betrayed are free to face you one by one and have their revenge.
2) you're false. this whole betrayal thing isn't working out quite the way you'd hoped. maybe if you play your cards just right, you'll be able to get your old life back.
3) you're selfless. whatever forced your hand to begin with doesn't matter anymore. you'll destroy yourself and play the role of a villain to the very end if that is what it takes to make things right.
4) you're lost. what you did was wrong, and you know that now. you can never be sorry enough, and you've lost your way. all you want to do is find home. won't anyone out there show you the way?
5) you're tortured. you have to make amends for what you've done. you have to. the thought consumes you, possesses you. you have to find them, help them. but after what you've done, will they even want to see you again?
what you've done;
1) you sold them out
2) you killed
3) you joined the other side
4) you stole
5) you lied
6) you simply are. you were never 'good' to begin with.

I THINK YOU'RE GETTING IN WITHOUT A THOUGHT AGAIN!
[He raises his hand and demon slice over here I AM LAZY SUE ME...]
no subject
[IS THAT THE SPINNY THING LMAO he looks like a tornado that's amazing. Ahem but he's hit back by that, and hard, but that only motivates him further.]
Keh! [Angel feathers already begin to start falling around him as he stands, glowing in his anger.] I'll show you what I can do when I'm serious! Divine Judgement!
[LINKS LINKS EVERYWHERE!!!]
no subject
Heh... I can't be beaten by someone who'll run away after this, afraid to face the consequences. If you can't be a hero. If you can't be a Chosen- YOU'VE GOT NO PLACE HERE.
[And then here he can have a bloodfest yuuup]
no subject
[DAMN IT... That brings him to a knee for a second, and he mutters a quick first aid spell before glaring across at Seifer. Any other battle he might be willing to die, but not one to save his sister...]
I don't need to be a hero! [He's got Lloyd... gkjfdlsjgdf He's going to get up and run at Seifer!! And I could link each if his attacks but that's lame so idk demon fang sonic thrust light spear I KNOW MY COMBOS BY HEART WHY AM I SO SAD.
The important part is he's going to try to finish it up with this
and then he's totally out of mana. Oh that end battle quote is the best yes...]no subject
Heh... Then stop tryin' to be one. Idiot.
[Weakly tossing the key to the final boss area across the floor to Zelos, ayup.]
Looks like... you played my game after all.
no subject
[He lowers his sword at that in a sort of realization all at once, expression twisting into something very upset. His foot catches the key by stepping on it lightly, and he tiredly moves to pick it up and pocket it, sheathing his sword in the process.
But he steps towards Seifer, staring down at him.]
...Looks like it. [He's so angry AT EVERYTHING EVER, but he holds out a hand, trying a healing spell or two. Whether or not that works, he'll continue.]
So what were you doin' playing mine? Idiot.
no subject
[HEALING... idek lmfao IT HELPS EASE THE PAIN???!? But like shit he's admitting to anything. Though he supposes now is the last call for requests and begging for forgiveness if he wants them.]
...You're supposed to be smirkin'. Ya know.
[JUST SO YOU KNOW... YOU'RE FUCKING UP THIS SCENE MAN...]
She's alright.
no subject
[There's another annoyed stare before he sighs, shaking his head.]
Y'know, not many people request that of me. [The smirking thing. It's a thing he does that is not wanted. Stop wanting it you're weird!! It's the last sentence that brings him relief, and he takes out a couple apple gels BECAUSE I SAY SO and tosses them sloppily on Seifer.
Doesn't know what he's talking about...Hmph. He steps away, but glances back.]
You better stay alive so I can come back here and kick your ass again. You got that? [STILL ANGRY but he's sort of sad sounding there. Don't be like him in any way Seifer it disturbs him. But his sister is alright, and he's still in as much of a hurry as before...]
