CONFESSIONS MEME

1. Post a comment with your character spilling their confessions and innermost thoughts for all to see
2. Go around and comment to other characters ICly, expressing shock, awe, disgust, anger, etc.
3. Discuss, accuse, commiserate, threadjack, etc.

I was an engineer on the Manhattan Project. When I see what the atomic bomb has done to this world...I was a young fool. I'm sorry.

I spent the bulk of my life developing a time machine, only to nearly undo my own existence and several others more than once.

I fear all the travel has done more to Marty than I initially realized, and I hope to make things right someday.

I'm content with teaching, but sometimes I wish I had flashier abilities to make a real difference---despite the known risks.

And I'd rig up another dangerous dimensional travel machine if I needed to---I tire of losing friends.

Well, yes, that's where the road to hell always starts.

While I appreciate your caution, Emmett: Multiple roads start in the same place. They're called intersections. Occasionally just corners.

[He smiles.]

Yes. It wouldn't do to become so cautious that I forget to live either.
cantwalkwithoutit: (of course)

Now tell me more of your dangerous dimensional travel machine. Is it the car? It's the car, isn't it?
4thdimensional: (see you in the future)

[personal profile] 4thdimensional 2017-06-16 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...Not yet.
drizzle: (yeah sorry)

[personal profile] drizzle 2017-06-16 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
[Reaches for his sleeve.]

I'm glad you weren't able to successfully erase your own existence. It'd be...terrible if you did.

And I like your abilities! To control electricity is plenty cool, in my opinion. Not everyone can control something as unpredictable as that particular element.

[He smiles and lets her hold on]

I'm glad too. And my abilities with storms are well balanced by yours, I expect.
drizzle: (instinct (silly))

[personal profile] drizzle 2017-06-16 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
It does. As you may already know, the electric charge you provide helps to increase the chances for rain to be produced while increasing the strength of my weather manipulation skills. Thunder helps us keep better control of your lightning strikes doesn't accidentally strike us. Which is a good thing too because I've had a few close calls back home that I don't really wanna experience another life and death situation again....

[Yes, let's not......tempt death too much.]

I've been zapped once. Never again.

[He laughs his agreement.]

But I think we'll be just fine.
drizzle: (33)

[personal profile] drizzle 2017-06-20 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
...I'm not surprised! I can picture it.

[Sorry, gramps, she can't help easily agree with his confession.]

Me too. We have a good connection. I think it'll be very easy to mix our powers together. Actually now that I think about it I don't think I've invited you to be one of my partners, have I?
4thdimensional: (it really works!)

[personal profile] 4thdimensional 2017-06-20 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
No. It might have come up briefly, before...

[He smiles. He knows that's hard on her.]

But we never had an official partnership. I'd be honored.
drizzle: (43)

[personal profile] drizzle 2017-06-20 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Only briefly?

[Geez, other self, what were you doing?]

Okay! Next time, we'll make the partnership possible. I'm curious to see the type of weapon you may make out of me.

[personal profile] 4thdimensional 2017-06-21 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
...make you a weapon?

[He looks alarmed]

That doesn't hurt you, does it?
drizzle: (39)

[personal profile] drizzle 2017-06-22 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Not as far as I know. The transformations are painless. At least, whenever I transformed into a katana, it doesn't hurt one bit.

[Not going to mention that the getting hit park may be an issue.]
