BROKEN MEME

[bababooey]

broken meme

You may once have been a great hero, or a modest regular person. But something has pushed you past the limit. There's simply no going back to who you used to be. To be seen now, your friends, your family, would they even recognize you? Your savior was too late. The pain was too much. The pleasure was too intense. You've been short-circuited.

You're broken.

A. Post with the usual stuff! Note somewhere if there are any options you aren't okay with.
B. People can reply, with a roll for their characters or ask if you want to roll for yours in that thread.
C. Probably some triggers involved here. Read at your own discretion, etc.

1. Pain.
You've been pushed beyond your limits and become light-headed, 'floaty'. The sight of your own blood doesn't provoke a reaction anymore, and seeing a friend might cause you to smile, or talk strangely. You might not even recognize them. It doesn't hurt anymore. It's alright now.

2. Lust.
No, no, no became yes, yes, yes. Dignity and self-respect have faded, replaced by an insatiable and alien feeling of want. You've reached a point where shame doesn't even occur to you anymore. Your eyes seem out of focus and your smile doesn't look right. Look, I've made so many friends who like me...! Do anything to me if it feels good.

3. Shock.
What has been seen cannot be unseen. A revelation about a friend, a loved one, an enemy- something has shocked you in a way you can never reverse. It may change not only the way you look at someone or something, but also the way you see the rest of your life. I saw nothing, I saw nothing, I saw...

4. Oppressed.
What's it like outside my cage? Your spirit of rebellion or confidence has been cracked, and your rescuers might not be there in time to salvage what's left of your spirits. You've long since accepted that getting away from this oppression is impossible- Perhaps you've even become attached to it as the only way to live life. Yes, sir. No, sir. Sorry, sir.

5. Corruption.
Something has eroded you. You're not like you used to be. You're obsessive, your face is darker. You may even see who you were before as weak or useless. Whether it's a magic ring or Phazon infecting your body, you're going grimdark and it's looking a little too late to pull you out of it. This power is far greater than what I had before! To think I used to believe in justice!

6. Hysteria.
When you talk, you don't make any sense. Pure Charisma Break. Maybe you were a god stripped of your might, or you've suffered a terrible defeat. Either way your ego has snapped, leaving you a total mess and unable to function. But how could this be? How could I lose?!

7. Desperation.
Where before you were airy, confident, in control of yourself, you're now a ragged and fuming pile of hopeless anger. As a fighter you may have been careful or even graceful; now you swing wildly, strike without precision. You simply cannot accept the situation, cannot accept your own fall. It's not over! I'm still in control! I can still fix everything!

It was with great caution Setsuna approached her, calling her name softly before he got too close. "Orihime? Hey, you doing alright?" he asked, tentatively.

[The mission is over. The area, secure and swept clear of any BOWs. World saved, let's go home, that sort of deal. But as the BSAA troops pull back, there comes from the shattered ruins of a gas station a weak cough. Someone, it seems, managed to survive the entire fracas.]

[Well. Survive, yes. But not unscathed.]

[Alyssa's pretty sure that she's losing more blood than she can afford to spare. It's soaked clear through her suit jacket and is staining the concrete wall she's collapsed against. What a lousy way to go: struck flying by a BOW and skewered on a piece of rebar. She laughs, though it sounds breathless.]

[ Oliver's gone again — not dead, he can't be. No one knows anything and the press is having a ball discussing the continuous misfortune of the Queen family. First father and son, followed by the miraculous return of the son, Walter's disappearance and now Oliver's gone again and no one knows anything, her mom's back to spending all day in bed and not going out, hardly talking and this time around, Thea can't really blame her.

This time around, Thea doesn't have the strength to stand up to her mother again. Maybe this family's cursed.

She's dealing the only way she knows how: nightclubs that she's technically too young to get into (but Ollie's not here to berate her for it and now she almost wants his judgment back because at least it would mean he were here), too much alcohol and drugs, and she's blindly stumbling through the crowd. When she collides with another body, she doesn't look who it is, just tries to steady herself. ] Sorry.

jack frost / rise of the guardians

[chaosbound]

( definite no on #2 and maaaybe okay with #6 depending on the circumstances. good with everything else, and I'm fine with Jack either being the broken one, doing the breaking (for an AU or w/e idk) or a purely neutral party. )

1 - hope this is ok!

[Being the last light of the world had definitely had its advantages- he'd been responsible for saving the Guardians from the brink of hopelessness, as well as bringing back faith in them all to the children of the world. Not only that, but because of it Pitch had been defeated, and would think twice before engaging with them again.

..Of course-...that also meant that- although weakened- every last bit of the Bogeyman's energy had been focused on making the child as miserable as possible. Sure, Jamie wasn't afraid of Pitch, he had no reason to be. ...but he was still a child, and still felt fear like anyone else.

He couldn't do much with Sandy back on the scene, but he'd been doing what he could, and that had been enough. Pricking Jamie's mind with a little inkling of a nightmare here and there, just enough to shock him into awaking. Then gradually it had gotten worse...and worse- and worse. Now Jamie was nearly afraid to sleep at night, or even leave his bedroom totally dark.

One thing's for certian- Pitch knows how to hold a grudge, and a child is no exception.

So where is Jamie now? Why- he's sitting in bed, but definitely not sleeping any time soon. His arms are wrapped tightly around his legs, and his chin rests on his knees- his tired eyes glaring into the shadows as he whispers to himself.]

...I'm not afraid of you.

I'm not.

[He's an alchemist in a world that really doesn't understand alchemy, his best-friend is a fire elemental, his left eye belongs to a dragon and because of the nature of his world being a mirror of another, he's bi-polar.

Happy to play victim or rescuer. (Or breaker.)]

(OOC: I'm okay with rescuer or breaker!)

[Orihime is very quiet, and very still. The bright energy and cheer she used to carry in abundance has been washed away, eroded by long, lonely months of imprisonment. She rarely bothers to speak anymore; she doesn't lack the ability, she just knows there's nothing she can say to change her situation. She can't beg or plead for her freedom. She'd been taken, and she was never going to see her home again.]

[Occasionally she gets up and paces next to her barred window, much as she does now. But once the moonlight passes through to shine a small square patch upon the floor, she calms down, and sits, and waits.]
