[Wei Wuxian has dbated about sending a message ever since waking up from the dream he just had. He knows it is a memory. He can tel the difference between those and normal one by now. But this time..he wakes up feeling more frightened then he has in a long time.]

Has anyone else had a memory that showed themselves dying? Because I'm pretty sure I just did.

I've seen death in my memories before. A lot of of it actually. But never..my own.

I was just wondering if anyone else has had to deal with that kind of a memory.

[He is greatly unnerved by it. Which is why he isn't showing his face or using video like he normally would.]

Maybe I should start thinking about my costume. Since I seem to have such a gloomy super power I would have to make sure the costume is over the top flamboyant to make up for it.

[consortofalderaan]

Unfortunately, I don't htink courtesy is taken into account with our experiences.

[chenqing_player]

So it seems. I guess this means I was lucky? Because I got to get it out of the way early? Except I don't feel lucky because I could feel everything and it was unlike anything I've felt in these memories before.

[serpentinthegarden]

Sounds the way to go. And don't cover your face entirely, a small mask or none at all. It would be difficult to charm the enemy behind a full cowl.

[chenqing_player]

Of course! The mask has to be very tasteful. Or I can be one of those truly bold super villains that doesn't hide their face at all.

[serpentinthegarden]

Why cloak beauty behind a veil?

[chenqing_player]

It would be a shame to do so. Yes..I could really get behind this super villain plan.

[bearshermark]

A darkness? Like possession of some kind?

[chenqing_player]

I'm not really sure..I've never been possessed so I don't really have way to compare it.

[This had him worried. Is he starting to remember?]

Sound like you had a nightmare. There's a lot of death in mine. But I myself haven't.

[Wei Wuxian is mildly freaking out on his side of the phone. This guy...he's pretty sure he saw this guy just before his death. What if this is the one who killed him? Maybe he didn't toss himself off the side..maybe he was thrown. He tries to keep his hands steady as he answers back.]

I seem to always be a trend setter. I would have preferred to not be the first with this kind of thing.

[inquiryguqin]

[He remembered this guy from last month support meeting and he doesn't seem comfortable with his dreams. Still, he wants to lend his support]

I think some Different have dreamed of meeting an untimely end. Try to relax and look at your life now. See? You're okay. It's going to be fine.

[chenqing_player]

Nothing about these dreams is alright. Our lives are getting completely uprooted by memories, strange powers and everything else being a different seems to come with. My life is anything but alright.

[inquiryguqin]

I suppose that means having two lives at once, and sometimes the past is the key as to why we're reborn.

You're still you. You're not a killer. I think as a Different, we just need to retool and redefine our life purpose.

[chenqing_player]

I was quite content with how my one life was. I'd like to go back to that.

[inquiryguqin]

[Lan Wangji wondered if this is really the same guy his past life self has been looking for...?]

I think even if you remembered everything, life is still the same. What's wrong with your past life?

[chenqing_player]

If you had seen what I have. You wouldn't ask that. I've watched countless people die by my hand.

[inquiryguqin]

[He may have already did. He has the same dream too and saw it. However, being a professor, his sense of safety is important.]

I'm a historian, and from my studies, people did horrible things. It's the past, and who knows how long ago is that. You're you, and you're not responsible for your past self.

Try to get some sleep. Tomorrow is another day.

[chenqing_player]

I definitely want to try and sleep this away.

[inquiryguqin]

I find sleeping it away helps.

[However, a dream like that isn't easily forgotten

Try to get some sleep and sleep well.

[consortofalderaan]

That is finding one silver lining.

But feeling everything must have been difficult.

[chenqing_player]

It wasn't great. It was like some sort of darkness was taking me over and death was the only way to avoid it. Not sure why death was better then darkness but..well apparently the me of before thought so.

[consortofalderaan]

That sounds very frightening. Anything from your memories collectively that give insight into what that darkness might be?

[chenqing_player]

I think has something to do with the power I was using...apparently I could summon spirits or something in that life.

[consortofalderaan]

And that was having a negative effect on you?
