repeter | Kill For You/Die For You Meme

Death and murder plots are serious business with long-term fallout and not to be chosen lightly. But sometimes we just really want the pain that comes with another character dying for yours, or seeing them murder someone in their defense... and that's what memes are for.

A1: Kill For You: Someone has hurt your character's loved one, and that can't be allowed. There's only one way to enact revenge or to make sure they aren't hurt again. Possibly with your character's loved one watching, but that's probably not too traumatizing.

A2: Killed For: Oh god no that was traumatizing. Someone killed someone else for your sake and now you're dealing with the consequences, whether you witnessed it directly or not.

B1: Die For You: Just because people have come back in Recolle before doesn't mean your character can allow someone they care about to be hurt. If that means sacrificing their life for them and dying in their loved one's arms, so be it.

B2: Died For: Someone you love is dying in order to protect you. You never wanted this. How could your life be more important than theirs?

How to meme:
-Post your character with their name, along with your preferences about which options you'd like ('will not murder', 'would prefer dying for someone over being died for', etc.)
-Other people respond to your character.
-Angst.

[He will absolutely avoid killing someone at any cost, but hey, shit happens. Other than that, go nuts.]]

[There's so much blood. So much that it triggers a memory, of her past life and a past lover, the vision of his bullet hole riddled body sprawled on the concrete. Sora's slumped body blurs with Shinji's, until she can't tell what's in front of her anymore. Can only feel anguish and rage, and the cold loneliness of realizing the world won't be the same if he's gone.

Not again.

With a savage yell, she rockets towards the back of her cousin's attacker, not stopping until her spear has pierced through muscle and internal organs, snarling with all the viciousness of a lioness protecting her cub and continuing to shove until the spearhead emerges dripping on the other side.]

Get. Away. From Sora.

[She twists, the spearhead catching on severed flesh, and yanks back so the attacker is stumbling back towards her. Another twist and swing of the weapon sends him flying into a heap on the floor. Minako is the only one standing now, heaving with exertion.]

[Sora's vision is wavering in and out, pounding from where his head had hit the floor, the coppery taste of blood in his mouth. Vaguely, he's aware of Minako a few feet away, tussling with the guy who'd hit him, but he's not in much of a state for coherent thought at the moment. There's a throbbing in his side where he'd gotten slashed, but he's mostly sure it didn't puncture any organs or anything. Probably.

It takes a few moments for the darkness at the edges of his mind to begin ebb away, and he thinks, 'I have to help Minako'. Sora forces his eyes to open, blinking a few times to clear them, and finds that perhaps his cousin didn't need his help after all.

She's still standing in the same spot, hands and spear covered in blood, and he wonders whose blood it is, exactly. He can't see the attacker from his spot on the floor, and he doesn't dare try to lift his head to try to find him.]

Mina...?

[His voice is small and croaky, like a child who'd woken up from a bad dream. It all came on so quickly, he's not even sure what just happened. But there's blood slowly soaking his shirt and dripping down his cousins hands and he needs to do... something.]

[She doesn't answer yet, flinging her opponent away and off her spear so he tumbles away and lands with a thud to the side. She doesn't know how much damage she did, and in the moment, she couldn't care less-- only to the extent that Sora not be subjected to the sight right now.

Once that's done, though, she surges forward the few steps and then drops to her knees beside him, gathering her cousin into her arms, shaking her head and softly shushing him.]

Shhh. I've got you, sweetheart, I've got you.

[A brief crack of the Evoker, and then Horus is hovering over their heads, the golden light of its healing spell spilling over them. Minako watches Sora's reaction intently, waiting for a sign he's feeling better.]

[Everything begins to tilt dramatically as Minako picks him up, his vision darkening at the edges as the movement sets his head spinning and makes him dizzy. He can't help but make a strangled noise of pain as his side is unintentionally jarred, and the sudden explosion of pain makes Sora very suddenly aware of the fact that, oh, he just got stabbed. The throbbing from the wound makes the throbbing in his head seem like nothing.

Dazed, Sora rests his head against his cousin's shoulder and closes his eyes, silently willing the world to stay still. It's hard to tell what's happening around him, only really aware of Minako's arms around his shoulders and her soothing voice whispering reassurances, but slowly the pulse in his head begins to recede. It's enough for him to realize that the agony in his side has lessened severely, moving down the scale until it's merely a dull ache.

He cracks open his eyes again, and it seems that the world has stopped spinning for now. His vision is half squashed from where he's laying on Minako, and everything else is covered in a soothing light. He tries to shift his head a bit to see where it's coming from, but it's terribly difficult and he's exhausted from the effort.]

Wha...?

[Part of her breathes easier when she sees that the spell is working. She knew it would, her Personas wouldn't fail her, and yet noticing the lack of pain in his voice and seeing the wound close up with her own eyes reassures her all the same.

It takes a more conscious effort to uncoil the rest of her body from fear-- brushing back his hair and looking into his eyes, after she smears away the blood on her palms onto her jeans. Cupping his cheek. Feeling for the strength of his pulse as she talks to him.]

Sora? It's me. It's Mina. Talk to me now, sweetheart. I need to know you're okay.

[It takes Sora a moment to process what's going on, that Minako is talking to him, that the world is coming back into focus. The gentle hand on his face is comforting, but does little to bring back his awareness of his surroundings. Honestly, the hard, cold stone under his legs gives him more of a grounding point. He makes a noise of discomfort, then manages to shift just enough to look up at his cousin with hazy blue eyes.]

Whazzhappened...?

[His words are slurred and his voice is still croaking and weak. But at least he's able to speak, and the soothing light is giving him back his strength the longer it shines on him, bringing him slowly back to the world of the living. His mouth still tastes like blood, can still taste it on his lips, but he can deal with that. It's better than the alternative.]
