COLLAPSE THE WAVE MEME

Collapse the Waveform Meme

A meme for characters CRAU'd to heck and back.

How many times now have you used that journal? How many places have you played that character?

How many friends, lovers, families have they found?

Well, here's some headache-inducing news: Ultimately, they're all the same person.

And now, the wave form has collapsed, and they actually are the same person. All of those memories, plus any new abilities and scars, smashing down into a single soul, a single incarnation.

On the bright side, at least whatever universe this is, you're not alone in it. On the less bright side, good luck navigating your relationships now.

Any CRAU character can respond to this meme, though of course, it's more interesting for characters who have been to at least two games. Meet your old friends, your new friends... Your friends' friends? Whatever. Consider noting down not only what games your characters have been to, but if you're open to three-people threads, for extra juggling-of-memories fun!

Because who lives in a barn! And if there wasn't a king or a queen, then how come neither of you were king until he went all fuckfaced and you took over?! Your politics make no god damn sense, where's the leadership!

[founderinglight]

We were the leadership, Ardyn was practically worshipped for his healing and I all but built Insomnia's early infrastructure by hand!

It was the aftermath of a magical divine war, there wasn't much of anything in the way of organization left!

[motherfucking_ghost]

So one of you should've been king! Why is that hard! It's a title!

[founderinglight]

Because Ardyn was insistent on travelling around healing as much of the Scourge as he could first and then when he came back it all went to hell!

[motherfucking_ghost]

Then he's a dumbass for now going 'cool I'm king now' and then go around doing his healer schtick! There was literally nothing stopping him!

[founderinglight]

Actually, no less than eight people of various genders also tried to have a go at making themselves travelling monarchs by conquest or other means, and almost all of them died in bandit attacks because 'king' tends to mean 'money' and eventually someone desperate succeeds in killing you.

[Hey we're not kind of yelling anymore.]

Healers aren't expected to carry anything valuable and it's taboo to harm them. Not being a king was Ardyn's first line of protection travelling the country.

That is one of the dumbest things I swear to god I have ever heard! [only one of us is done yelling]

Welcome to politics, Prince-Consort Church.

[motherfucking_ghost]

Of course you kill the healer first, have none of you guys ever played a videogame in your lives?

[founderinglight]

Technically no, and also only an idiot kills the healer who is potentially saving their family. As I said, harming them was taboo, and especially Ardyn once it was more commonly known that he actually could take the Scourge from people before they became daemons.

So he would've been just fine if he called himself king, what the fuck!
