3..2...1...CONTACT!

Who: The New Hires
What: Sudden Memory Share
Where: Their Memory Palaces
When: After "Don't Touch That Dial"
Warnings/Notes: Possible in every memory, warn in subject lines.

Contact.

It's during a pause in their day. A nap. An idle moment looking across the Top Deck. Taking a slow breath between reps in the training room.

The New Hires are connected. Mental pathways locking together, they're forced into one another's innermost beings. Thrust into one another's memory palaces where the mind collects and stores everything that makes them who they are. The core of their beings are only a few steps away and no one can help the violation.

To make matters worse, it comes with no explanation or no ability to pull out and stop. Once they're through the first memory, perhaps they can find a way out, but they're already witnessing some event from their host's past. And, if they left, who knows whether or not they'd end up accidentally invading another memory palace?

And if they were there, who was in theirs?

[[So, how this works: the memories can either be viewed in spectator mode or the guest can be experiencing everything themselves. The person whose memories are being shown, the host, can watch as their current self or take the form they had of their past self. They can talk about the memory with the "guest" that's visiting.

They cannot control the first memory shown, the player decides that, but they can control any other memories they'd like to show people after. Of course, there's also always the option of an extreme emotional reaction bringing up other memories unbidden.]]

Stacia hides a laugh behind her hand. Frankly, she's much more interested in talking about her shapeshifting abilities than she is talking the blood.

There's a lot of blood she doesn't want to talk about.

"Yeah, we can go full wolf," she says. "It's no harder than shifting to wolf-monster, or even full human." She hasn't mentioned Glabro or Hispo to anyone here yet; she'll cross that bridge when she comes to it.

"And yeah, they're all werewolves," she says, endeared by the fact Merton's worried about that. "Shield, Bulletproof, and Ace. Nicknames, obviously. And the wolf is Athena."

The one she'd pointed out as Ace takes off his coat and wads it up, tossing it at Athena and Stacia's past self. Athena pulls free long enough to retrieve it, because the remains of Stacia's dress don't qualify as clothing and being mostly naked certainly isn't helping anything.

"I'm pretty sure Ace had already decided to adopt me as his baby cousin at this point," Stacia adds for further reassurance.
