Memory Sharicus - Oh No, not again!
About 8 am on July 15th, Rex does something stupid in his usual genius way. It was meant to be a small, simple test run of a method to scan a person and instantly gain all the data he needed to produce a Phantom.
The small field the spell was meant to spread just kept growing, until popping like a bubble with the most counterintuitive sound of all- two seconds of white noise, sounding as if it was coming from inches away. Not everyone heard it. But everyone who did...
It's a painless process, almost ticklish and instantaneous as numerous coloured orbs fly out from their chest, taking wild curving trajectories that launch them all over the academy and some of Soleil, coming to a sudden stop and hovering silently for just a few seconds.
That's when they start to slowly float towards the nearest possible recipient of the memory they contain, accelerating as they get closer as if thought and mind have a unique sort of magnetism.
It's sort of beautiful to see, really, not that Rex will notice because 60% of his mind is consumed with fear he will get into trouble and the Phantom project will be compromised. On the other hand, the Phantom project could provide the perfect scapegoat. So about six hours after the initial event, he released his latest creation- the Phantom mischief-maker, Waggery!
What a disaster.
(( ooc: The planning post is here! Be careful to warn for the nastier memories! If you already have memories planned to share, feel free to write them as a top level or just put up your character and link to the planning/make it a free for all. There'll be a post below for Waggery shenanigans and random NPC memories up for grabs. ))

[He makes a face.]
It hasn't gone great. But I don't know what to do about it. Something weird happens here every month or so but it usually clears up.
no subject
[He's the noob here, what does he know? Seems plausible.]
no subject
[He shakes his head.]
Anything's possible. Unfortunately.
no subject
[Which makes him a hypocrite, but then he did stop after only a few.]
no subject
[And some might find that hunting relatively tame.]
... But I get the feeling. I think everyone's got things they'd rather no one see. Or experience, as it were.
no subject
[Nothing tame about the hot raw meat going down your own throat...]
< I think the pink ones are happy memories. If you go out. >
no subject
[Pink. Coco's favorite. Maybe his too, some days.]
Makes sense. You've seen a few then?
no subject
[What is he even doing, this is stupid. They're not even friends. Not remotely the same age. But then, what does he have to lose? A room? He doesn't need a room.]
< I think I saw one of yours. It was nice. >
no subject
Mine?
[And something not terrible at that?]
What did you see?
no subject
[Yes, this is extremely stupid--how can he save this, make it less awkward?]
< So, yours are out there too. Not sure what you want to do about that. >
no subject
That is a rather nice one. Definitely one of the better ones.
[He shakes his head.]
There's nothing to be done. At least not that I can think of right now. I'm glad you got a better memory.
no subject
He looks back at his phone, the website about dinosaurs, unwilling to meet Héctor's eyes.]
< Me too, I guess. Weird, but maybe not all bad. >
no subject
Wierder than hawk life? Does it hold a candle?
no subject
< Weird's relative. You should know that. This is my normal. >
no subject
[Like this part of the world.]
I'll be taking "not all bad" as a compliment, by the way.
no subject
[That's all that really matters--the little girl, not the romantic half of it. So lucky...]
no subject
[As... most Dad's would say about their kids. But still.]
Sweet and kind. The brightest smile. My girl was dancing before she could walk. And she's grown up so much. Oh, I can't wait to see her again. I'm going to hug her so tight.
[And gush about it all to a roommate he just met.]
no subject
< You can't go visit her whenever you want? >
no subject
Ah, not really. This... thing of mine was worse before. I couldn't make it on most plane trips, though I tried. Couldn't phone. Letters were a problem-- some secrecy thing about them being opened up and read by the wrong person. I didn't have a lot of money anyway and private flight didn't get far. I've only been out of the outlands for just over a year and I got here a few months ago. I'm supposed to keep up a deal for them to stay and... other things have made it more complicated. [The fact there's a monster out there who could change him any time if it corners him again. The fact that he's going to disappear someday anyway.]
I don't want to hurt her. Not again. We've told her I'm sick and that this place is helping. Which means, even if I want to, I can't just take off. Not until things have... stabilized somewhat.
[And yet every part of him still just wants to run to her.]
But I'll see her soon.
no subject
< I hope you can. >
no subject
Gracias.
[Even if things get postponed again, he's still closer than he was. It's something.
He pulls on a brighter smile.]
What about you? Do you have any... hawk... family? That sounded way less stupid in my head, I swear.
no subject
[It doesn't seem to bother him. It's easy to keep his voice even. He's changed so much.]
< Not that it bothers me. I don't think I need people like a human would. >
no subject
Really? Not even being, you know, smart and all like this?
[Sentient and aware. He'd been sure even animals craved something.]
Sorry. It's hard for me to imagine. It just sounds lonely is all. Being alone could be nice sometimes-- I used to play all into the night as a kid, but... [He shrugs his shoulders.] After a while, I always wanted to see people again. But what do I know! If you're happy as you are, then that's what matters.
no subject
[Perfectly cool, not a feather out of place.]
no subject
Well, I suppose it's good that you're okay then. I hope you've been less bored here.
