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.]]

Guts stays kneeled next to the younger Saturday, accompanying her in the ditch. The screams were sharp, and they must've felt as real as the night it happened. A brutal means of survival, one he understands quite well.
Even though many details of her journey through the city were foreign to him, he was all too familiar with how the weak and old were left to rot in the dust. Abandoned to be swallowed by the world, unless they were lucky enough to be cared for. She was kinder to them then he was, on his worst days. He hopes she never bears witness to those grim times of his life.
"Do you still prefer I call you Saturday... or?" he gives her a little hint of a smile, trying to bring a bit of levity between them. It would have been better to learn her name in a less invasive way, but what's done is done.

She gives him a little smile.
"My real name's Makoto Ramirez. You can call me what you like, but I'd rather Jorgmund only know Saturday, dig?"
