you lied to me before.



TRUTH MEME
Sometimes, you have to tell the truth. No, I mean, you have to. Maybe it's magic, or a promise, or nanobots; who knows. But you have to tell the truth, and everyone knows it. Of course, do half-tuths count? What about lying by omission? That's up to you, and how far you want this curse, this ailment, to go. The only thing that can't be escaped is the truth, whatever form that truth takes.

What happens next?

You decide.
  • Post your character to the meme.
  • They have to tell the truth when they're asked questions.
  • What others ask is up to them. Nothing is off limits.
  • Your character has to answer... eventually.
  • Tag around and ask other characters questions!

I feel obligated to say it's The Waves by Woolf, so my mother can continue resting easy in her grave.

But I was always really fond of The Monster at the End of This Book.

What are you most afraid of?

...Huh. I'll have to pick that one out.

Eyes, I guess. Not, like, people eyes. I mean, I used to have this dream about eyes always watching me, you know? So I guess that. Which is pretty good as far as irrational fears go.

What do you want for your birthday?

That makes a lot of sense, given ... well, you know. Everything.

For my birthday? I want to spend a nice, quiet day with you. Like maybe we wake up late and do brunch, and there isn't a government entity chasing us, and after that maybe we go for a walk in the park and feed ducks or something.

( normal, boring shit. )

What were you thinking when you tried to kill yourself?
themagicman: (either it's there or not.)

I-

[ a long pause. ]

That I wanted the voices to stop. And I wanted to stop ruining other people's lives. And that I was tired. God, I was so tired of everything. Failing and trying and being a disappointment and never being enough. I just... wanted it all to stop.

Are you mad that I asked?

( maybe one day she'll stop with the all serious, all the time.

maybe. )
themagicman: (were clear)

I... [He has to take a moment to think about that.] No.

But, uh, Syd. Why did you ask?

It's hard to reconcile the you that I know with the you that I've seen in your memories. ( which isn't a bad thing, it's just. a thing. that is. ) But - I'm sure that happens to Ptonomy a lot.

What do you want for your birthday?
themagicman: (vision of a lake)

[personal profile] themagicman 2017-08-13 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
The me in my memories didn't have you. And... he had a pretty impressive drug problem, too.

[Uh.]

What you want, but maybe with one of those concert in the park things?
