Memory: Trivial Significant Positive - Arriving in Ikebukuro (Vol 1, chapter 2 part 1)
Game: Hakuren Heart Game (played)
Game Master: Dream
Day: 151/2
Notes: Memories come in the form of little spun sugar birds in your team color. One time use.
( Please choose from the three choices: One, Kida Masaomi! Two, Kida Masaomi! and three, Kida Masaomi! )
Things we learned:
-SUDDENLY BACKSTORY INFO DUMP
-So I lived a really boring life and never left my tiny hometown
-And I moved alone to Tokyo because my friend asked
-Despite my parents being against it
-It's a prestigious school and I'll be paying my own way
-It was exciting, but now it's kind of terrifying
-LOOK AT ALL THESE PEOPLE
-People are kind of scary
-Crowds are intimidating
-My friend is lame
-I love my friend even if he's lame
-Headpats and affection, this is pretty normal then
-Gain +20 to being relaxed about physical stuff with friends
-Gain +50 to politeness and formality
-Gain +50 sarcasm at lame jokes
-Gain +100 to shyness in crowds and with strangers
What this means:
This is a huge move for Mikado, and I broke the scene into several memories. Together, coming to Ikebukuro and meeting up with Kida again basically changes Mikado's entire life. This memory is his first sight of Kida after four years, so he's surprised at his friend's changes in appearance (Kida looking like a delinquent is a surprising thing here, he's used to it later).
This memory is also a lot of BACKSTORY INFO for Shark. Not EVERYTHING important but the reflective bit at the start really basically fills in the majority of the picture: boring life in the country. Internet addict. Best friend moved to the city. Decided to follow him to a fancy private high school because he's literally never left his home town. And it's a huge step and it's scary as hell in comparison to where he came from! So now Shark knows for sure he has a really unremarkable backstory, two perfectly normal, nice parents, who are also you know, alive, and yeah. His life is so normal. This is going to make Aather more exciting and more scary.
ALSO SHYNESS AND FORMALITY. So far his memories have been in a comfort zone or just weird, except the one with Aoba, but he's lost adrift in a sea of people until Kida finds him, everything is unfamiliar and terrifying.... This may or may not suppress some of Shark's more bold independence for a while, but there is that feeling of being helpless and lost and lonely and homesick and scared at the beginning of this memory, that ends with the sheer amount of relief and overwhelming happiness when he realizes who Kida is and he has a friend and he's safe and things are exciting again and fun and comfortable, instead of scary and lonely.
This is probably going to do things to Shark's ability to be alone and scared, and make him more vulnerable until he starts getting his psycho memories back. Likely, this will increase his timidness around strangers and may make him a little quieter around his casual friends, though probably won't change much with Coral or his close CR, except for an urge to be around them more.
....I'm not sure why I labeled this triv pos at first I am re-assigning this as Sig Pos because wow. What was I thinking.
Edit: Further notes on this memory, just to observe, there ARE actually very early hints of Mikado's crazy in there if you look. Like how he decides the fluttering in his stomach must be nervousness (and not excitement) and how he goes so easily and instantly from DD= at the crowds and people to =DD at Kida without missing a beat or hanging on to any nervousness or discomfort.
