Truth Meme
Truth Meme

Somehow, there is kirin on you.
Most likely, it is the fur of the kirin that was caught in the environment of wherever you’ve been; there is a stray hair on you because one was on the seat you sat on upon the train or because it blew onto the brim of your hat in the wind.
Or it may be because you met the kirin—a playful ungulate moose-sized spirit who prefers not to speak—and engaged with him and gave him a pat, or a scratch behind an ear. Maybe the kirin nosed or licked your hand because you made him laugh (it’s an adorable ‘keh keh keh’ sound).
Unfortunately for both you and the kirin (who had not meant to trouble your day like this, truly), this exposure to his dander has only one reaction, and it happens to 100% of Star Children: you are compelled to tell the entire truth. About what is less specific; you are compelled simply to announce things about yourself—your life, experiences, thoughts, opinions, feelings. No matter if it’s something silly and inconsequential, deep or secretive, life-altering or commonplace. Some may choose to do this by employing Foxi and their relic; others by finding people to exchange truth with to face to face.
When you have met the kirin’s subconscious desire for four hours, you will be free from the truth telling and the recipient of 24 hours of good luck. The good luck will be sometime in the next year rather than in the next day, and you may have no idea where it came from, but you’ll know a lucky day when you have it!

that's true it can def be worse [that was his timeline, after all. he's seen worse, and it's everyone dead.] i dont think a requirement of this is "helping". if that was the point she should've teleported me right into my therapist's garden
i'm so glad he's ok
i'm so glad it worked out
i think a part of me will just always wish it was because of my choice not despite it
but like you said i'm probably the only one who could do it
or would
maybe someday that won't make me feel like shit
no subject
you came back you told us what we needed to know
you helped us all the way to the end
i already said i dont think any of us could have pulled the plug at least not straight away
and if it hadnt been done wed have lost
your choice saved the world theres no 'despite' about that
i know it hurt and it still hurts and it will always hurt to think about
like i get echoes of that i hate to think about it but you were at ground zero so i know its worse
but the more time you get to see what you saved i think the more youll be ok
no subject
i didn't experience what we saved, not really
i was busy trying to finish the last real mission sensei ever gave me
maybe i had it easier in your time? the future-not-future
maybe it was easier not to think about this stuff when everything was new and shiny and now that this is my normal i get to spiral a little. (as a treat. i think thats what sensei would say)
idk. i think a part of me is worried it'll never get better
which is stupid, SO stupid, because it already has
i'm so different now from the first day i got here
brains are stupid though. i wish i could turn that part off
no subject
but it makes sense how can you KNOW about our actual home
i could tell you what you mainly did in those couple months
but spoilers?? idk if you want those and it would totally change with a year plus change of history here
but like honestly?
this place messes with us more
like we had bad guys but we never had like
forced honesty and reality slicing out from under us
i would like to think that if you can thrive in a place like THIS
youre gonna ace new york when you finally get back
and its okay not to know and its okay to run around in circles stressin about it
we loop back around to brains are stupid
i mean thats all of us right?
no subject
maybe it would help, if you don't mind? idk. if it doesn't help at least i'll know and we tried
i hope you're right though. i was pretty overwhelmed that first night but i was here too and i got used to it, so this world is like baby steps
whether it's ok or not i'm definitely going to keep running around in circles about some stuff for a while lol
no subject
i wonder if this place is kind of good as a buffer actually
like your home was all chaos and survival all the time and new york is NOT that
but here you get a mix of both
less of an adjustment??
idk
anyway yeah ill compare notes with leo and raph to cover the bases b/c they saw you more than i did
give you an update soon after?
[Notably not Donnie, but she knows Donnie came from the same time Casey did, so there's not much point. Raph, she's not sure on, actually, but she'll ask.]
no subject
good buffer for sure
that sounds good tho yeah. thanks april <3
