video; un: saxitup | two truths, one lie

[saxsongs]

Hello! Some of you might remember me, but in case you don't - my name is Ren Jinguji. I returned during New Years and I'm resuming my work as an idol!

[With rewnewed energy, as one might notice from his annoyingly sparkling smile.]

But that's not why I'm making this post, really. I want to propose a game! Something so we can get to know each other better.

This is, two truths, one lie. Write three things about yourself, one of which is a lie. Others will have to guess which one it is. Of course, you can also reply as a video or a voice message, if that's easier.

Simple, right? Let's have fun.

Have you ever had your mind directly damaged?

[A Pause.]

Nnnnnnnno?

[abnormalizes]

That's a thing that can happen.

[sonic_wachowski]

And what does that entail?

[abnormalizes]

It depends. But with white damage weapons, it usually feels like the sudden knowledge, as sure as you know white from black and left from right, that you are nothing. Nothing you do matters. You know from the depths of your soul that everything is pointless and you might as well lay down and wait to die.

That's the most mild version I've experienced.

Yeah, okay, so very deep depression isn't a great time.

I have been informed that it's pretty bad and that using white damage to pacify panicking employees is also bad and it's bad that I'm used to this being done to me.

YES??????????????
That is a terrible thing to do to a person!

Re: cw: enforced depression??? fun white damage things

[abnormalizes]

You really do just get used to it! Which doesn't make it better, I know!

Anyway so that's why I'm surprised that the acknowledged villain has, like, standards.

[sonic_wachowski]

no it doesnt
its a bad place to be
dont let yourself think its normal or it just gets worse

Or ego, at least.

[...Pause as she processes this.]

I haven't felt that in a while. But if I did feel that way from a reason other than it being beamed into my head, there are people I could talk to.

You have people too, right?

Re: cw: enforced depression??? fun white damage things

[sonic_wachowski]

what
of course i have people
i have plenty of people
but its good you have people
because that is important
it helps get you out of that mindset a lot better than a lot of things
and you are awesome
you deserve to not be horribly depressed

Re: cw: enforced depression??? fun white damage things

[abnormalizes]

Okay, good. Because you're also awesome, and you also deserve not to be horribly depressed, but talking about feelings is something I'm not great at? So other people would be better for you there than I would.

I'm okay! I mean, I definitely do still have some trauma that I'm working through, but this isn't the source of it! ...Which isn't SUPER reassuring, I know. But I like myself, and I love my life here.
