[i am not strong enough to write proper starters on memshare week.
wherever they happen to be after their mission, they will both find themselves getting sucked into a rift where both of them will witness this memory (cw: emeto at 0:45-0:47.)]
[ anyway, guy watches this play out silently... he's been trying not to react to memories out of politeness, but this is incredibly bizarre to watch. most of it is incomprehensible, and he really wants to geek out over the person vehicle, but in between the wacky sonic hijinks is a real emotional conflict. ]
Yeah, but it's not exactly a pleasant thing to watch...
[ whew. ]
Well, I'd be lying if I said I didn't have lingering feelings about it, but... I'm fine. I just feel pathetic for still having this problem when they sacrificed themselves for me.
Hey, trauma is trauma. You ain't exactly in charge of what makes your brain sound the alarms and tell your body to go into survival mode, ya know...? There's no timeline for when you should be [air quotes] "over it."
but no, she's being a good clown and taking it easy right now. the collar she came back with is still around her neck, though she's cleaned up and changed into something more comfortable.]
[she reaches into her pocket and pulls out a whole ass bionic eye. it's pink!]
But it's, y'know, company provided. So I figured I should get used to having zero depth perception just in case it turns out the prosthetics are gonna screw us over later. I heard the senior officers are havin' trouble with their wetware lately, so...
[ he's still in the medbay, but he seems weirdly out of it. he doesn't notice harley approach, he's sitting in a pod with his hand on his head. trickles of blood are still dribbling out from his nose and eyes ]
Thanks. And sorry about before. [ he will indeed wipe his face ] That's the plan.... but I know I'm not the only one who needs it, so I can wait a bit tonight.
[ but he is not owner he is definitely gonna go back in there ]
It was... one of the Thursday "missions" that messed with our memories. Pretty sure we were in Lucien's memories, or something along those lines.

no subject
Calling it "donating" is a bit of a stretch, since it wasn't by choice...

Can I ask if you two worked it out?
no subject
I mean... We're datin' now, so you could say that.
no subject
Congratulations! Looks like her biggest fear has been disproved, then?
no subject
... Yeah. And I'll keep proving it wrong every single day. I love her.
no subject
I'm glad things worked out with the two of you. She seems like an incredible person.
[ do you want a meme back ]

Holy fuck.

... Sorry. You've probably seen so many of these shitty memories so far.

[ whew. ]
Well, I'd be lying if I said I didn't have lingering feelings about it, but... I'm fine. I just feel pathetic for still having this problem when they sacrificed themselves for me.

w4, thursday
no subject
but no, she's being a good clown and taking it easy right now. the collar she came back with is still around her neck, though she's cleaned up and changed into something more comfortable.]
Hey?
no subject
[ he is doing a once over to make sure she's not still injured ]
no subject
I'm okay. I'll do a couple more hours in the pod later.
no subject
... Alright. Get healed the rest of that taken care of as soon as you can, please.
Is the senior crew going to be able to replace your eye?
no subject
[she reaches into her pocket and pulls out a whole ass bionic eye. it's pink!]
But it's, y'know, company provided. So I figured I should get used to having zero depth perception just in case it turns out the prosthetics are gonna screw us over later. I heard the senior officers are havin' trouble with their wetware lately, so...
no subject
[ that's actually more practical than he would have thought from her. wow, rude guy ]
How's the depth perception so far?
no subject
Bad. It's, uh, it's gonna take some getting used to.
no subject
Anything I can do to help?
no subject
[HIS TITTY TATA SWEATINESS.]
no subject
Oh, that's fine. I can handle it.
But do you need to heal more first? Don't push yourself too hard.
no subject
no subject
Just make sure you're up for it.

[ also he has this cute friendship bracelet on ]
no subject
no subject
Harley...
[ well, he's not going to try to stab her anymore at least? ]
It's... an effect, I think. I'm planning on going back into the pods anyway.
[ irritably wiping at the specks. there's like very little coming out of his eyes and nose at this point, but it's such an annoyance ]
no subject
[she goes grab some tissue or, like, alcohol swabs or something? it's the medbay. there's gotta be something he can use to wipe his face.]
So, uh, I gotta ask. What happened to you guys?
no subject
[ but he is not owner he is definitely gonna go back in there ]
It was... one of the Thursday "missions" that messed with our memories. Pretty sure we were in Lucien's memories, or something along those lines.
[ so that already is so yikes ]
no subject
... Well, shit. The company needs to start paying us royalties if it's going to keep using our memories to maim the hell out of everyone.
no subject
Right. As if things weren't already bad enough. It's got to get personal.
week six, sunday.
... Great. So I hate that.
no subject
Me, too. I'd offer to cut it, but I get the feeling that won't be enough.
... But I'm happy to see you again, Harley.
no subject
[stop being so organic. please.
she offers him a small smile despite everything, though.]
Yeah, well, I'm happy to be back! I missed you guys.
