[Hymn #63] ~Pas de Deux~

Am I the only person who's observing a pattern? I think everyone's overreacting. There's no way all of us were involved in matrimony.
[Private; Unhackable.]
This is absurd! The flood of memories seems far too convenient. It's nearly Valentine's Day, and I'm certain the fact that other people are also remembering "being married" is no coincidence at all. It wouldn't make any sense for the island population to be made up almost entirely of couples; most of us don't even come from the same worlds and
...
Getting worked up over this is foolish, regardless of how convincing it might have been. It's not real. It's not. It's
...
...there's obviously something wrong with me.

[[OOC: Cue MAJOR awkward. Tear's trying to remain rational about all this, really, but she's kind of horribly failing at it.]]

Date: 2010-02-08 05:51 pm (UTC)Yes.
no subject
Date: 2010-02-08 06:14 pm (UTC)Strange, though. This marriage business really came out of left field. Its relation to Valentine's Day is distant at best.
[Filtered to X; yes, Tear does have some tact.]
Date: 2010-02-09 12:59 am (UTC)Well, perhaps not. Valentine's Day is supposedly a couple's holiday with an emphasis on romantic love. Marriage is essentially a huge binding public display of those feelings.
[Filtered]
Date: 2010-02-09 01:13 am (UTC)I know. We have to work with what we're given somehow. Maybe we can get by with only showing love we're comfortable with?
True; I didn't consider that. I didn't hear or read much about Valentine's Day being associated with marriage, so I made an unfounded assumption. I really thought we'd be getting something more benign...
[Filtered]
Date: 2010-02-09 01:51 am (UTC)Perhaps. Unfortunately it makes things awkward. This was a person I considered a friend, and I was fine with that. This, however... I don't know. It throws a wrench in things.
I did a little research, but not a great deal. We don't celebrate it on Auldrant, so I've never participated in it firsthand. I was only saying that they seem similar - Valentine's Day may be more about dating than marriage, but dating does sometimes lead to marriage. I don't know much about it.
I thought so, too.

Date: 2010-02-08 07:18 pm (UTC)I mean, it's kinda horrifying to remember all these sappy things. And it's hard to separate what I really feel and what my memories are telling me.
no subject
Date: 2010-02-08 09:30 pm (UTC)Still, I don't think we should jump to any hasty conclusions. It seems suspicious that so many people remembered similar things at once.

Date: 2010-02-09 12:53 am (UTC)I don't know... I... It's just that I was talking about this very thing a few days ago. It's not that I don't want to believe it, it's just...
I've never thought of actually being in...
It just seems very strange.
[Filtered to Tear]
Date: 2010-02-09 01:41 am (UTC)Tear, I remembered being in Memento before. But my only memory from that time was when I got married to him and...
Love or crushes or whatever this is... Yeah, it's bizarre.
... So who did you remember?

Date: 2010-02-10 03:50 am (UTC)It's kind of unsettling, isn't it?
no subject
Date: 2010-02-10 05:40 am (UTC)I'm not sure I'd go so far as to call it "unsettling", but it's definitely not something I was expecting...
Have you been doing all right?
I read it as 'bride' at first. :|
