Event Post: Never Log In

THE RUNDOWN

It sure has been a crazy few months! Or, you know. Year and some change, if you've been here for awhile. Maybe you've been through a lot, or maybe you're still carrying baggage from home that you haven't quite been able to work through. Well, the gods - Hope and Sorrow in particular, though all of them have some stake in the emotions that could be brought up - have decided to give everyone a chance to get some of this off their chests.

But who actually wants to look someone in the eye and tell them about your problems? Literally nobody. So the gods came to the most obvious conclusion, helped by the fact that they don't actually know how awful the internet is: an anon post!

That's right, all of Hadriel will be provided with an anonymous venue to let out the things that have been upsetting them. Your fears, you regrets, your guilty thoughts - whatever's been weighing you down, now's the time to let it out. And so that you aren't screaming into the void, your fellow residents will be inspired to respond and help you work through your shit - whatever 'helpful' means to them.

THE DETAILS
On February 25th, an open network post will be made. On the in-game network, all posts will be ICly anonymous. However, we ask that you post logged in and simply indicate 'anon' or something of the sort in your thread subject. This is for logistical purposes (for example, it's impossible for actual anon comments to be used for AC, since we can't know who made them). So please do not log out when posting!

ICly, characters will feel a mild compulsion to post honestly. So if your character might not normally unburden themselves anonymously, or might not even pick up their phone, they'll find themselves significantly more inclined to do so. In return, characters will also be mildly compelled to respond in a helpful way. Of course, the definition of helpful can be very different from character to character - maybe your character thinks it's very helpful to tell someone not to feel guilty about murder, because humans are awful anyway. However, as with most in-game compulsions, both of these can be resisted if you do not want your character to participate.

If your character finds someone to be really helpful, very friendly, or just super weird and interesting, they do have the option to reveal their identity. This will only happen if both parties agree - if one character switches to unanon and the other doesn't, the other won't see their identity until they switch as well. In addition, both identities will only be revealed to each other - the thread itself would still look 'anonymous' to anyone else reading it.

So now's the chance to unburden yourself in total anonymity, make new friends, and help each other out! There's no possible way for this to backfire, not even if it turns out the person giving you such great relationship advice is actually the person who killed your dad. Wow. Awkward.

So Chara will be posting to this when it goes up! They will be a bundle of vagueness and horrible jokes but they may talk about the following:

The doubles event! Mostly about how their own double was a spoiler-y brat and spilled the beans to Frisk about post-Genocide route things and showed them that photograph, killed Asriel and so on. There's also Chara's slap-fight with Sans's double, killing Frisk's double and watching the real Sans get murdered because he came to help them.

About how their LOVE has been randomly increasing and their fear that it means something bad is going to happen...even if it's just in Chara's head that this is happening.

The conflicting feelings they have about having Asgore in Hadriel, not to mention whatever is going on between Frisk and Asriel.

Murdering Alphys for finding out about her unintentional role in creating Flowey.

Finding out Flowey and Asriel are one in the same and beating themselves up for it because it was their fault that Asriel died.

Murdering all but two people back home. Genocide route is Good Times, clearly.

The fact that Chara wants to die in general. This conversation will obviously carry references to suicidal ideation and (possibly) references to child abuse so if you absolutely don't want to deal with those topics, please let me know!

Chara will also be commenting on other people's stuff and depending on the topic at hand they might be helpful but probably not. So if you want a snarky child tossed your way, they're your friend!

kid..........

i'm so sorry this garbage skeleton is The Worst but he still wants to help them even if he hates himself for wanting to ha ha ha fu k c k

[somuchlove]

Ahahhaha no it's fine don't worry about it Sans. Just let them wallow in their misery and never go unanon because future conversations will get AWKWARD afterwards.

[somuchlove]

No. Pay no attention to the friend trying to ollie themselves out of reality.

(by which I mean it is socially acceptable)

[alltozero]

oh goody TIME TO HAVE AN EXTREMELY PUBLIC BREAKDOWN RIGHT ON THE INTERNET FOR ALL TO SEE

[somuchlove]

Godspeed goatbro, and they'll hopefully figure it out and calm him down.

But the whole 'olling out of existence' may not happen because Sans is a sneaky little shit. Rejoice?
