the afterlife meme

You're at the end. you've kicked the bucket. you've passed on. the point is you're dead. And however that end came out it's time for you to face the afterlife. Where will you go? Who will you meet? How old are you? What was your end like?

It's time to meet your end.


i. HEAVEN - Nirvana, Shangri La, Elysium, either way your good life has paid off and you are now paid off with eternal happiness.

1) PEACEFULLY. You died at peace, you've done all you can with your time and you came to your natural end. Now it's time to meet with those who left you behind.

2) A HERO. You died a hero. Celebrated by many. It's only fair that you get to rest.

3) TOO SOON. You died too soon, perhaps an innocent victim of some villain, or in an accident. However one thing is for certain, you shall rest peacefully here.

4) A VICTIM. A victim of a horrible circumstance, a painful death. Your end wasn't pleasant, but your afterlife will be. 

5) GUILT. You don't feel you deserve to be here. Not with all the suffering that's left behind, with your actions. Others should be here. Not you.

6) WILDCARD. Anything and everything else.


ii. HELL - Brimstone and fire. Tortured until the end of time. This is the "bad" place to end up. At least you may run into some interesting people.

1) A THE TOP. You died at the top, everyone suffering, the world at your feet. And yet look at where you are now.

2) JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS. You were just following orders. Doing what your superiors told you to do... and yet here you are.

3) DEFEATED. Unfortunately the "good guys" won, spoiling your plans. Everything you had hoped for was toppled over.

4) GUILT. Now is the best time to repent and reflect on the evil you have caused....

5) SURPRISE. No good deed goes unpunished. Perhaps what you thought was the right thing to do was really the wrong path. Maybe you had been misled. Whatever happened, you ended up here now.

6) WILDCARD. Anything and everything else.


iii. SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN - Perhaps your in purgatory.... or in the final crossroads before you and others who have passed on must part. However, you're somewhere in between...

1) FINAL GOODBYE. One last meeting between friends, enemies. Just passing spirits.

2) FIRST MEETING IN A WHILE. It's been long. Way too long.

3) I CAME TO FIND YOU. You have fought through heaven and hell to see this person. To try and find them.

4) VISITATION. Perhaps you were both allowed a visitation between two different realms

5) WILDCARD. Anything and everything else.


iv. WILDCARD - Anything and everything in between. Any scenario, afterlife, situation that you could possibly imagine. The skeleton war, perhaps.

Harry Potter and that series where I died

[isawizardcop]

[Can be the second time he dies or an extended version of the first time.]

Re: Harry Potter and that series where I died

[harpyginevra]

[Battle for Hogwarts everyone dies AU? As a side note I'm assuming that the afterlife thing is more "place of transition" and less "this is a literal train station"]

Ginny looked around. How had she ended up back home? One moment she'd been in the Great Hall, hurling hexes at Bellatrix through a curtain of tears, and now... she was by the broom shed. It was a gorgeous, brisk afternoon, perfect for flying. When she was young (well. Younger. Ginny was still young but she felt so, so old) she had often dreamed of getting on a broom and just--flying away. Sailing into the blue sky and never landing. She supposed she could now.

Instead of opening the shed or going to the house or anything else, Ginny sat down in the grass and stared at the cloudless sky.

Harry James Potter dies in his sleep.

Harry James Potter dies in his sleep, well into old age, surrounded by his family. Harry James Potter dies in his sleep and slips from one collection of family members to another. Both places, really, feel like home.

It's good, to see his parents and Sirius and all the others they'd lost over the years. It's good, to feel like he's finally resting in a way even years of caring for children instead of fighting evil hadn't let him.

There's still something nervous in him, when he's finally a moment to talk to Remus. Even all these years later; even with all his children grown and clearly happy, there's still a hint of worry that he'd not quite parented right.

It's strongest, perhaps, with the man whose son he'd started to help raise before he was little more than a child himself. He absolutely has to ask.

iii, 5 (messing with a few world mechanics, I guess)

[saevusacutus]

It looked like a train station. It always looked like a train station. Impossible and white, stretching on forever and ever, beyond the horizon, everything fading to white. It was a place he could not leave, could not move on from or escape. A place where time seemed not to matter, and flowed like the tide. People came and went, flitting in and out, passing like ghosts. Just as he could not leave, he could not maintain proper form. At least not the one he'd favored late in life. But with time, effort, and focus, he could maintain something close to a face he'd once known. Before it all began.

He'd been waiting for specific faces, watching the places where souls seemed to stay the longest. Until at long last he saw one he'd longed to see. No, not longed. That implied some manner of affection. Anticipated. That described it better. He saw Regulus seated on one of the benches. Seats arranged in rows where one might wait for their train, a mockery of a staging area, the benches barely visible but for their shadows, their edges lost to the ever present white of the space.

Slowly, he settled across from Regulus, with the sort of easy grace that seemed present only in predators. He said nothing, just staring at one of his former followers, his own face as blank and firm as stone, his gaze unwavering. He'd been older, more transformed, when the other had known him. But would he recognize him, now? In this place? Would he see more than the illusion before him?

[The first thing Remus notices as he comes to is a sense of peace unlike any he's known other than when he'd first held his infant son. Even as he remembers exactly where he'd last been, there's a sense that it's over, that there's nothing to be done. Or at least, nothing for him to do.

Remus has always been a bit too quick to be resigned, though.

So he's dead. This must be whatever comes next. He hopes Dora makes it through the fight, Teddy needs her, she has so much life ahead, and she has good family and friends to help her, he knows she could make it without him. He's always known that. Figures that after he'd come back to her, determined that she not have to, the choice is wrested from him.

He doesn't have much time to wonder where everyone is because the second he rounds a corner, he sees Lily, looking not a day older from when he'd last seen her. And why would she?]

[lunisolar]

[There's some sort of literary trope, where time slows down and your life passes before your eyes right before you die. It's a bit of bull, really. It all happened so fast, battles of war always do.

He was facing Dolohov, neither of them managing to land a hit, until a spell was fired faster than he could react, and there was a split second when he realized he wouldn't be able to throw up a shield or dodge and then-- he was in the Shrieking Shack?

At first he thinks he's been hit by some sort of transportation spell, a completely incomprehensible choice, why wouldn't Dolohov just kill him? As soon as he sees out one of the windows of the Shack to the endless nothing beyond it, he knows that's not true. He is dead.

Figures he'd get the bleeding Shack.]

There'd better be more to it than this.

[eggclipse]

[ neither heaven, hell, nor the sweet lull of limbo could stand in the way of duty. specifically, in the way of ignis' duty. if fate and the six thought that he would stand idly by while the lot of them spirited his king away to goodness-knows-where, well, they had another damn thing coming.

maybe he was a little hasty in all this. maybe he could have afforded to sit and think this through, as per his station. maybe maybe maybe. maybe he could have hung up his driving gloves and took up a career as a gossip columnist but we can't all have the things we want in life.

so he's here, in the wake of-- what was it again? was it daemons? (were they big? small? shining black like beetle shells with weapons like guillotines? or was it just his imagination, was it all just unending, unbroken darkness, like an ink spill across his vision blotting out light and with it the details of the world around him save for the cavernous groans of impending death, bracketed by prompto's sniffling and gladio's deep and shaking breaths?) does it matter?

he thinks, as he blinks away the bright spots in his eyes, it doesn't matter in the least. ]

Stardust. It's peaceful.

So that's that. The plans had been transmitted, Rogue One had done their part. Everything was up to the Rebellion now.

Jyn wonders if she'll see her father again, now. Her mother. Any of the people that she had met and died beside in the last few days. Built a stronger bond with than any of her fleeting contacts and acquaintances shes made over the years.

Something clenches in her chest when she sees Bodhi at last. If it weren't for him, none of it would have been possible in the first place. Her father had been right to place his trust in him. Jyn clasps Bodhi's shoulder, giving it a small squeeze. ]

[ heroes, he decides, are just another branch off of the classic martyr, when the end result comes down to this. heroics were for the men and women who had the time and the mind to put up with that kind of nonsense. heroics were for the kingsglaive. tales weren't told of chamberlains, songs were not composed for the king's chauffeur and personal camp cook. it's just absurd.

yet here he is. brushing off his sleeves and shoulders as if dusting away the unseen dirt of battle, the gesture both familiar and his go-to in masking the nervous jitter of fingers. ]

I would hope that if they told tales of this day, they would leave out the details regarding your idea of 'fashion'.

albus "the shitty son" potter. harry potter.

[whereagainst]

[ more like albus "makes shitty decisions" potter, right? ]

just starts crying already

[isawizardcop]

If he could come back from the dead again, he would. If he could send someone else from the dead back, he would.

It isn't fair. It isn't right, after everything he's sacrificed-- after everything so many people, including Albus himself, have sacrificed-- for his son to be killed for such an old, tired prejudice. It has Harry raging from where he watches, in the beyond. He wonders (but doesn't ask) if this is how his parents felt watching him when he went (both times.)

He's waiting for his son when Albus arrives properly. His arms are open and inviting instantly, even if there's something like tears in his eyes.

(For all the anger and hurt of this reunion happening so soon, it's so good to know he'll be able to hold his son again.)

iii-2 EIGHT MILLION YEARS LATER

[lovernotafighter]

[Okay, what Epsilon did was bullshit, and Tucker would never see it as anything other than that. Sure, it saved their lives, let them survive the fight and move on to bigger and more stupid things, but he shouldn’t have had to do it. Again and again, it was the same pattern repeated, moved on but never changed: Church always kept killing himself, some self-inflicted bullshit no matter the circumstances.

The first time, Tucker hadn’t been there. Now? Hey, at least he got a goodbye message, one he listened to again and again until he memorized each word, each inflection, had triple analyzed how it made him feel things he didn’t want to feel. His best friend… best fucking friend and there was nothing he could do about it.

It was hard to let it go.

It would take years for Tucker to die, and it wasn’t even Caboose’s fault or a predictable overdose of Viagra. It was a fucking ship crash, one that –thankfully- his son or any of the other guys hadn’t been on. Oh, Tucker would have been happy to see the outpouring of emotion (mostly from his kid, Donut, and Caboose) and the way Grif flipped off his casket before setting a bottle of whiskey down next to his headstone. No women’s panties were left there, though, and how totally disappointing was that?

But he was dead. Cool, or really not cool because he was dead and there was always the chance he’d see fuckers like Felix, but whatever; he’d deal with that shit as long as he got to see Epsilon. Church. As long as he got to punch him in his stupid face for leaving, always fucking leaving.

Selfish asshole.]
