"Mini-Memoria" Plotting Post (it's a memshare player plot!)
time to d-- memshare, everyone
THE CONCEPT:
February 11th, Kuja's gonna finally attain his big furry supermode, and try to meld time & space to reach the origin of all life. Won't work. But what it WILL do is make weird, rippling auroras all over the place that will toss you into someone else's memory when you touch it! They'll appear anywhere in town, indoors and out, and can pop up very suddenly. Inside these wavering lights are vague visions of other places and times... if you get too close, you'll find yourself within that vision yourself.
They can be reasonably avoided; it's not covering the whole of town completely. These auroras vary in size, ranging from 'something you could find when you open a cabinet' to 'this is making crossing the street inconvenient.' After someone enters an aurora and experiences it, it disappears, and might reappear somewhere else.
Practically, what this is gonna look like is "Kuja turns red and more furry, makes a weird ominous magical orb in the middle of town, and is either stopped or tuckers himself out after half an hour."
The effects are going to start sometime in the evening, and end at midnight, because that's kind of the vibe in Austice, y'know? There's no obvious tell when the event starts, except... a slowly growing feeling that something is terribly wrong? Then the weird warps in reality start popping up like daisies, naturally.
The effects will last until the stroke of midnight, even with the dispersal of Kuja's.. funny pink orb. Getting rid of the orb will make it way less bad, making the auroras all much smallerand thus harder to notice. Also, that feeling of doom will be gone, which is nice.
Characters who touch an aurora will be sucked into someone else's memory along with anyone close by, vanishing from the town until their experience of it concludes. But the memory doesn't have to come from one of the characters dragged in-- instead, we'll be cherry picking memories to experience from a communal bank everybody can choose to contribute to~!
You can also choose to put up closed memories for specific characters to see, since some things you might wanna have shared from your guy's backstory.. wouldn't work out so well getting released to the general public.
Beyond just canon memories, you can share experiences from ingame, too, but give a heads up to your thread partner if you ARE sharing an Austice scene!!
The way the memories play out ICly is really up to what you personally want to do with what people put out there.. one-and-done flashback? yeah! A movie you can move around in? I've always wanted to do that. Interactive area that gives out info as you press on it? Cool as hell!
SO UH.. DEALING WITH KUJA (you can skip to the tl;dr: if you're just here for memshare):
No one technically has to, since he's going to totally burn himself out after about half an hour on his own and give up forever on... whatever the hell he was trying to do, but if you want you can come give it a shot! He's set up shop at the memorial for the lost constructed months back by Rinne and Kotetsu, and the auroras are especially dense around him - after a certain point, you can't approach without going through one. I ask that 4 characters max enter the, uh, boss aurora together, because there's a lil puzzle room inside. After they escape, the boss aurora will vanish, and anybody can get through.
Boss fight team's assembled! It's Kokichi, Wave, Vivi, and Andy.
Kuja will be very manic and threaten people that try to stop him with scary pyrotechnics, but if spoken to he will talk plenty. When has Kuja not ran his mouth at every opportunity? He's not going to stop now of all times. Maybe you can talk him down...?
I have a solid idea for what's set off his supermode, ftr - he hasn't checked on his gem since before his first death(s), and it's in pret-ty rough shape after all that. I was thinking I could have checking the gem come up in a thread with someone, so if you're interested in that, let me know! Kuja will IMMEDIATELY be fleeing the scene after he transforms, zipping off to the memorial to start the show. Kinda seems like he planned this.
TL;DR:
So, friends, let's make that memory bank!! Here's a form, and there's a header below to comment to with it. You're free to add as many as you want if you come up with more later. I'm erring on the side of 5-6 max per guy, myself.
Let's all have fun & advance or make CR in fresh exciting ways~!
Please use this post to toss ideas at each other about memories you want to share. You can find someone to experience some memories alongside, since... that gives you someone to roleplay with, unless what you want to thread out is the aftermath of experiencing it. That would be cool too!!! Go top level with your wildest dreams when the IC post goes up!!

TL;DR:
- Touch an aurora, experience a random person's memory alongside anyone nearby.
- Canon or game memories are fair game, but please ask your thread partners if you use game memories!
- Characters vanish from sight until the memory is over.
- The auroras start appearing the evening of February 11th, and all vanish at midnight.
- Please use the form below to submit memories to the collective memory bank if you're interested!
- Try to find the center of all this madness and Kuja's there, feeding power into a glowy pink orb. After the first half hour he will either be there but too tired to keep feeding it magic, or somebody's stopped him, one way or another.
- Even if you don't really have time to jump in on the event yourself, sharing memories for the bank is welcome!
- GO FORTH AND PLOT
