Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
WHO: All residents of Dualis + special guest stars
WHAT: Strap in, kiddos, it’s a ~memshare~
WHERE: In your head. Or, you know. Everywhere you go to escape that.
WHEN: August 15-24
WARNINGS: Don’t forget these if they’re applicable!
It’s been a few months, Dualis, how are you settling in? New arrivals, we know it’s sudden, but we hope you’re making new friends already and settling in well! You’re all gonna fit in juuuust fine around here.
Things have calmed down after the supposed terrorist attacks during the Dualis Days celebration, and there’s still no news about that strange network broadcast. But maybe that’s for the best, right? See, the Head really does have everything under control.
But speaking of heads…
Over the course of these next few days, yours might be feeling a little funny. Maybe you just aren’t quite feeling like yourself. Or there’s an ache that just won’t quite go away. Or maybe you’re perfectly fine! Which is completely optimal, honestly.
Except--that memory you suddenly have. Is that really yours? And what about those fainting spells that seem to come with premonitions...or are you perhaps remembering something you repressed long ago? You’d probably remember something like this, though, wouldn’t you?
It’s perfectly natural to be concerned. However, if you approach your friendly neighborhood MedBot or clinician, they’re going to be pretty stumped. It appears there's nothing really wrong with you, but hey, here's some mild painkillers if you want them. And if you try and consult the Head, all it’ll be able to do is give you it’s most sincere condolences. It seems that there may have been some complications with the transfer process, but these should definitely wear off soon! In the meantime, why not visit your local clinic for a sedative and some painkillers?
Good luck, denizens. Looks like you’re in for a bumpy week or two...
[[As a reminder, these memory shares can happen at any point in time during the span of the event, not just when your characters are sleeping! You're also welcome to have them experience no side effects at all, all the way up to fainting spells and headaches a la Cordelia circa season 2 of Angel. Feel free to reach out to your friendly neighborhood mods if you have any questions!]]

“I understand that.” It’s almost startling how much he does - he didn’t expect to have so much in common with a human, not on this point. But replace SeeD with CyberLife and Connor might have said those words himself. Not that he has too many friends just yet - but that just takes time, and now he has as much of that as he wants. “I think now we’re here and not in our own worlds, it’ll get easier to figure ourselves out. That’s what I’ve been hoping.”
He didn’t want to come here, and he’s been frustrated that he’s not going to see a lot of the important developments that are bound to happen after the uprising. But on a purely selfish level, this time away from all of that lets him just be Connor. Not the ex-deviant hunter, not one of the faces of the revolution, which he somehow became at the very last minute. Not even a deviant. Just a person like everybody else.
“After.” He nods. “The same night. I confronted Markus while the government was in the middle of rounding up androids to put into camps and destroy them. When he decided to take a peaceful protest up to the camps, I infiltrated CyberLife headquarters where they were building new androids and freed a few hundred of them. That night, the government agreed to stand down.”
He flashes a wry sort of grimace. “I came here a couple days later.”

"Maybe you're right. My friends are here too. Maybe something can change." He hopes so. He can't bear the thought of everything being erased the moment he goes home. If a machine can deviate, why not him, right? He's already made leaps and bounds at home. It's just a matter of moving forward.
He grimaces at the mention of camps and destruction. The darker side of humans really are universal. He lets out a breath and folds his arms loosely, thoughtful.
"Your mission's done. You have a chance for a fresh start." A pause. "Like me." Again, the similarities are a little spooky. "We can't relax. There's a different fight ahead of us here, but I want to find a way that sends everyone where we want to go. With our memories in tact."
