bakerstreet | People die when they are killed.

the death meme

(CONTENT WARNING. This is a meme about death and may deal with suicide, depression, extreme violence, illnesses, etc.)

This is it. The final curtain. You're at the end of your life, and there's someone here you really, really need to say something to before you die.

CAUSE OF DEATH

1 - Accidental. Nobody meant for this to happen, but it doesn't matter now. Due to negligence, arrogance or just plain bad luck, you've become gravely ill or injured and are now in your last moments. This covers all kinds of accidental deaths--strangulation, drowning, car accidents, unintentional beheadings, whatever you can think of.

2 - Murder. Somebody really didn't like you. Enough to kill you, it seems. You're now dead by someone else's hand. (Maybe even the person replying to you?) As with accidental death, this covers all types of intentional, malicious murder, regardless of method--so poisoning, stabbing, shooting, etc., all work here. Same with all the below options: any possible variation you can think of on it will work!

3 - Suicide. There is no hope for you, and no way out. You've reached the absolute bottom pits of despair, and the only recourse you have is to take your own life. Someone shows up to stop you... but they're too late to help you now.

4 - Terminal illness. You have cancer, or tuberculosis, or cholera back when people got cholera. The doctors have done everything they could and it wasn't enough. The only thing to do now is give your loved ones the bad news.

5 - Starvation. So thirsty. So hungry. Maybe you've been traveling in the desert for hours, or maybe you're just really poor. Whatever the reason, it doesn't matter, because you're slowly wasting away until you're nothing but skin and bones.

6 - Death in battle. You've died a hero's death, and gone out in a blaze of glory. Or maybe you were a coward who got shot for deserting? Either way, you're now a casualty of war. Will you be honored with a parade or scorned as a traitor to your country?

7 - Natural causes. You've lived a long, happy life, and now your story is at an end. In a warm bed, surrounded by your family and friends, you peacefully drift off. Just make sure that you've made a will somewhere, or at least use your deathbed to set the record straight. Otherwise, who knows what kind of squabbles might errupt after you leave this world?

TIME LEFT

1 - A few minutes. You're fading fast and you don't have much, well, any time left. Better tell the person with you that you love -- or despise -- them with your last breath, because you'll never have the chance otherwise.

2 - A few hours. You haven't got much time left. Is there someone you still need to kill? To kiss? Better do it quick. (Note: last kisses not recommended for people dying of highly contagious illnesses.)

3 - A few days. The doctors have given you the news, and it's not very good. You've only got a couple days left to live. You should start trying to make peace with people and saying your final goodbyes with the days you have left.

4 - A few weeks. Take that vacation you've always wanted to go on but never had the chance to. Go do that thing you've never thought you'd be any good at. You've got only weeks left to live. Don't waste them.

5 - A few months. While you aren't quite on death's doorstep yet, your lifespan has still dwindled considerably from what you probably thought it would be. How are you going to spend your last few months on Earth? Making the world a better place and telling your family you love them? Or raising as much hell as possible?

RELATIONSHIP

1 - Lovers. This is your husband, wife, boyfriend, girlfriend, mistress, whatever you call them they were the person you wanted to spend your life with. Too bad you don't have much of a life to spend with them anymore.

2 - Siblings. Your beloved little or older sibling is just standing there, watching you slowly waste away before their eyes. Can you say anything to comfort them? Note that it doesn't necessarily have to be interpreted literally; adopted siblings and friends so close they might as well be siblings work too.

3 - Parent and child. Nothing is worse than a parent having to bury their child... except, maybe, a young child now alone in the world after losing their parent. As with the sibling prompt, this can be expanded to include parental figures and people who are LIKE a father/mother to you as well as actual biological parents.

4 - Co-workers, teammates or classmates. You were fighting for the same side. Or you worked together in the same office for years. Or they sat behind you in biology all semester. However you met, how do your react when you find out someone who used to be a fixture in your life is going to die?

5 - Friends. You're the best of friends! You go everywhere together, know all each other's secrets, and are never seen apart. At least, you didn't use to be. Now one of you is dying and the other one is left alone in the world. Or maybe you're dying together. Wait, is that better or worse?

6 - Bitter enemies. You hate, hate, HATE this person. In fact, maybe you killed them. Or they killed you. Or maybe nobody killed anybody and they're just bitter that Mother Nature got to you before they did. Regardless, they want to confront you one last time before you bite it, if only to rub your nose in your imminent demise and their ability to outlive you.

HOW IT WORKS:
1. Post your character and preference
2. Respond to others.
3. Tell the person what you need to tell them before you bite it.
4. Have fun!

[ ooc: i had to tho. ]

[the scent of snow hangs in the air when Gojo arrives on campus, crisp if not clean due to the dust and blood that's been shed. he crosses the distance with a heavy heart and heavier feet. part of him hoping despairingly that Yuta has finished it, so that Gojo wouldn't have to.

but no. of course not. his steps slow to a halt in front of a narrow alley where Suguru is slumped against the wall.]

[ Well, Suguru gambled – and he clearly lost. He bet on killing Yuta, assuming that as long as Gojo was out of the way, Suguru could get the upper hand. But isn't it almost so poetic that he was bested by young sorcerers working together? Maybe it's the adrenaline or the anemia, but Suguru is elated by such a defeat. Of all the undoings he could have faced in the last decade, this seems... fitting.

He feels Satoru before he sees or hears him. That cursed energy is unmistakable (and almost like a warm blanket, draped over his aching shoulders after an exhausting day), and Suguru finally turns his head to greet Satoru. ]

Took you long enough... don't you think?

[ He wheezes out a laugh, wincing as pain arcs from the stump of what once was his arm. His remaining hand clutches at the scarred, gnarled flesh, and he swallows his next sound to smile at Satoru instead. ]

[it's painful to see Suguru like this. it's been painful ever since that day in Shibuya when Geto cut all ties they had and vanished.]

Well, I was waiting for you in Shinjuku. Thought we'd make up, have a drink, and vanish into the night together. I had flowers and chocolates and everything. Your gift wasn't as considerate and now I find you here, chasing after a younger model.

Always— the romantic.

[ Suguru lets his head fall back against the stone wall, his blood-soaked hair plastered to his skin and tumbling messily in his face. ]

I guess I'm disappointing you... mmn, one last time.

What are you talking about?

[being the strongest means nothing when Suguru is around. Gojo has always been weak around the other man, weak for him. how many people got injured or died tonight just because Gojo couldn't do what was necessary ten years ago?

crouching down beside the curse user, he sighs.]

You've never disappointed me.

[ There's a different pain in Suguru's eyes when he looks over at Satoru, his smile still stretched defensively across his lips. ]

No need to lie at the end, Satoru.

[ Because what else could that moment have been years ago when Suguru defected and left Jujutsu High with a trail of blood in his wake?

Though maybe feelings of "betrayal" would be more accurate than "disappointment." ]

[an empathetic reaper, just for you c:]

OOC: i'm here for something about the vow Warren makes at the end of canon, or something silly like pretending to be dead(er) for Reasons, or someone saying what they believe are their last words before Warren intervenes. add your own ideas! he's a reasonably powerful vampire, go nuts.

[Old and new cr welcome! Let’s get shitfuck dramatic in here. Probably dying very violently, lbr. Though a slow decline of health could be interesting too.

Open to 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 for cause of death.]

People die when they are killed.
