COUNTDOWN: I SEE YOU
The warning bells of the Nightly Curfew ring across the city. There's a faint hum from the phone this time before the icon appears. This time it displays a time: 1:00AM
The rest of the night is normal. Perhaps you've cuddled up with family, or you've gone to bed early to wait, but sure enough, time tick by right until 1 in the morning when....
You're back into that application again. A single question before you're even permitted to type anything else. And while it seems to be overwritten by something inside of you, it feels a lot more natural than before. Which is, truthfully...troubling.
But then something happens...

I SEE YOU.
What had just happened? Before you can think about it for too much, and as your heart beats faster, the screen returns to normal, and another message flashes.
Well shit. Lets try this again. Answer from the heart, the part of you that has been denied for far too long. DO IT QUICKLY!
Is your life here a lie?
Yes.
Sorry lambs, this time we can't kid around...
Is your life here a lie?
Yes.

Once you are done, you are tossed once more into the main chatroom. Is fear rising? Is your heart beating faster? There's a lot more at stake now it seems. Fortunately, your user names are the names that you wrote down in the last survey, but with all those questions it's....hard not to think of them as your own. Maybe you'll be cursing at this device, but it looks like you're already deep down the rabbit hole by now.
And now...something's might be looking right back.
[OOC: This is one of the final network post before Awakening. ALL Users will now be able to speak of who they are in their AU life without the information being blocked by the application.
Additionally, while speaking, Applenet might spazz out, like above. If this happens, a random painful memory will hit both Awakened and Unawakened (please warn if the visions are graphic for other players). They might find themselves writing down things afterwards regarding the memory (for example, getting shot, they might write down the pain they are felling, etc) and regretting it. This can happen up to 5 times per user.]

[He'd almost typed 'me too' before remembering the warning from Luci, Eligor 10, and others]
The filters are down...be careful what you share. The app might not be very secure.

[He nearly drops the phone as a memory slams into him. It's appropriate, since in the memory he's being slammed into a wall by an unseen force--his armor is glowing as it's been manipulated by someone with power over magnetism. He's confused and maybe even a little scared--though he'll never tell her that. Just as quickly as it happens he drops to the ground as she lets go. She apologizes--because of course she does--and flees. He's honestly not sure what hurts more: the physical pain of being slammed into a wall, seeing her cry, or the fact that she ran away.]
Pyrrha wait! What did I say?

It's...that wasn't supposed to happen. I didn't mean to type that.

i dont get it
Jaune Arc ⚔ Eligor
That stopped happening to me since I already answered the questions before...but I guess now things are different.
Taro Watanabe ☸ Dantalion
uh
thats not good
Jaune Arc ⚔ Eligor
[Probably because he knew what happened after that memory now. He had all the pieces, it was just like the memory made itself super real and he almost felt the pain from it all over again.
Mostly, though, he was worried about what this meant]
cw: world war ii
[It's been years and years since he's seen them. He knows where they were originally, but the war had been hard. He knows that everyone in the area had been moved, but what he hadn't expected was what had happened when he'd headed into a Japanese American society's office and asked if they had information on where they'd been sent after the war.
"You... you can't be serious."
'I'm... I'm sorry. Were they close family of yours?'
"... Cousins." A lie, but close enough to give his reaction justification. "Could you... write down the information you have? Please?"
He clutches the small piece of paper, listing their names - both died in 1944, only a few weeks apart from each other. Location of death - Camp Manzanar, Inyo County, California.]
its not fair they didnt even get to see the end of the war they were good people

There's not usually a pattern...a rhyme or reason for them.
It'll make more sense in a few days though. I know that's not a lot of comfort--but anything else I try to explain isn't going to be much help.
I'm sorry.
