maidofmistakes: Unsure. (Well despite the fact that I'm not)

[personal profile] maidofmistakes 2018-01-07 06:06 am (UTC)(link)
...yeah. That's what I'm worried about. And I shouldn't be, it's a whole other me whose memories I'm barely starting to get back, but it feels real.
matchbreaker: (Storm King's Thunder)

No, no, why shouldn't you be worried about it? The idea that you might get a memory of a death like that is horrifying, Kara. Anyone would be scared of that.

[ Or hell, the idea that two worlds died instead of one? that too is overwhelming. ]
maidofmistakes: Hugging herself sadly. (We are all done wearing pants today)

[personal profile] maidofmistakes 2018-01-07 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess so. Thanks. ...I wonder what they were like. Other me's parents, I mean. They must have really cared, but why send me off alone? Was I supposed to go really far away?

[ . . . . ]

I'm speaking only as myself, right now. But if I had a child, and I had the means to save them, even if I couldn't save myself, that choice would be made without hesitation. Especially if everything's going wrong at once, it's easy to act on instinct.

[ For better or for worse. ]
maidofmistakes: Explaining. (then you are not really living yet.)

[personal profile] maidofmistakes 2018-01-07 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Maybe they had somewhere in mind, but didn't have the resources to take everyone when whatever happened happened.
matchbreaker: (the one below was the worse option)

[personal profile] matchbreaker 2018-01-07 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
You shouldn't assume things if you can't help it but... that does seem possible.

[ Mmm. ]

I'm sorry you got such a painful memory.
maidofmistakes: Studying. (Sorry. Not doing life today. Love to.)

[personal profile] maidofmistakes 2018-01-07 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
...It's okay. I'm sure other people have worse. Thanks.
matchbreaker: (tbh im not sure if the above is better)

[personal profile] matchbreaker 2018-01-07 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Albert... ]

Even if they have, there isn't a reason you need to front off your own hardships. It's not okay. It's grotesque that- [ "children have to experience things like this." But she holds her tongue and exhales through her teeth on the other end of the line. ] Well, that anyone needs to experience that or some of the things I've seen or heard about.

If you learn more about those circumstances, or either of learn more about the circumstances Retrospec is working with, would you talk to me again?
maidofmistakes: Drawing a horse. (My prof gave me extra credit for)

[personal profile] maidofmistakes 2018-01-08 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
[Kara exhales after a while.]

Sure. I'll come right to you if I get any information. Thanks a lot.
matchbreaker: (Notre Dame)

[personal profile] matchbreaker 2018-01-08 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Good.

[ . . . Or any other problems but mmm. ]

It's no trouble, I think I've said a dozen times.
maidofmistakes: Sadly offering something. (My neck kind of hurts.)

[personal profile] maidofmistakes 2018-01-08 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry! Seriously, I didn't mean to offend you or anything.
matchbreaker: (Is annoying!)

[personal profile] matchbreaker 2018-01-08 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
[ She actually softly tuts at that, pausing her initial response to instead say, ]

You haven't, you haven't. I just want you to feel a little less jumpy with me. That's my indulgence!
