THE 'TRUE SELF' MEME(inspired by Persona 4)



"In Jungian psychology, the shadow or "shadow aspect" is a part of the unconscious mind consisting of repressed weaknesses, shortcomings, and instincts."

Everyone has another side to them that they keep hidden away, feelings they bottle up to save face or avoid conflict. But what if those feelings take a life of their own...?

Perhaps it's your best friend, a close family member, a hated enemy, or maybe it's just a complete stranger. No matter who it is, they are different now, possessing creepy yellow eyes, a distorted voice, and a disconcerting aura. Take care in what you say to them, though, because there are three little words that will set them off into an unstoppable rage...

How to:
Step 1: Post as your character with their name and canon
Step 2: Others respond stumbling onto your character
Step 3: WHOOPS. Character A has been replaced by their Shadow or Other Self!
Step 4: Play out the encounter! Will you start an epic boss fight? Have a pleasant chat? Or maybe just flat out ignore them? Run wild!

[...yea, she can. And she's not gonna let that happen. Either she'll help her father do what he was to, or she'll protect him. Either way she's not going to let anything happen to him.]

I see.

[It's weird now knowing this is a separate entity from her father, even if it reflects that which he keeps hidden. She feels like she should stay, even though she knows she shouldn't. She also feels like she should say something more and she considers for a moment. Perhaps it won't mean much to say this to him, but she will.]

I don't know what you're hiding, but I'll love you all the same.

You shouldn't promise that before you know what you're getting into, my dear, sweet daughter.
