Day 291 | afternoon
[ video ]
[Veronica looks remarkably well for someone who was violently assaulted yesterday. The magic of Warden technology. Still, while they could heal the stab wound, the emotional ones will take more time.]

Our good friends the Wardens have asked that I start a game over the network, so why don't we play one of my favorites: anonymous confessions. Got something weighing on your soul? Share it here. Our favorite Warden has made it so your voice will be distorted beyond all recognition. People can guess but no one will ever know...

[If knowledge is a weapon, secrets are the assault rifle for a private detective. Know a person's secrets, and you know that person's weaknesses. And while this may not be the most effective way of gathering them...well, everybody's gotta start somewhere.]

[ooc: Veronica got special permission from the Wardens to enable people to respond anonymously to this post. Just put "anon" in the subject line for any post that's anonymous. Voice responses will have a filter (can be a silly filter if you want), and video posts will have a silly picture and voice distortion.]

[Talking. Yeah, that's what Veronica wants to do. Talk about her problems. Like she has a problem, instead of Nathan. Like talking will change the fact that that kid is a twisted psychotic menace to society. Yes, please do pass on the talking.

As for what is actually said...Veronica is sympathetic. That could basically be the story of her life. She spent years thinking, underneath the rage and blame quite rightly directed at her mother, that if she'd been a better daughter, maybe her mom would have stayed. If she hadn't been so broken and suspicious, maybe she'd have a relationship that actually lasted. Something a little more reliable than the "epic" chaos of her love affair with Logan.

But ten years have taught her a lot.]

You can't change who you are, not in any way that counts. And you'll be stuck with that person whether you're home or not.

[It's both Buck up, kid and I understand how much this sucks.]

[She almost disagrees on the last point—the being stuck. She goes back and she's dead one way or the other. If she remembers then she phases and gets to live another few minutes until they reset the timeline. Then there will be another Kitty Pryde growing up in some kinder, gentler, better world. That girl won't be her. Not really. No more so than the other Kitty here is her. Different memories, different life. But she doesn't want to spill out things that make her even more obvious to the casual—or not so casual observer.]

I'm not sure if that makes it more or less depressing.

It is what it is. You can let it keep you in bed all day, or you can work with it.

[It's a message not so much for the other woman as it is for herself. Because it's tempting, after an assault, to hide where it's safe. Let the angst overtake you. But that's not Veronica's style. Every hurt, every scrap of pain, she takes and she throws it back at a dysfunctional, corrupt, uncaring world. Maybe it's not the healthiest way to deal with her problems, but it's worked for her so far.]

	I've always gone on. I've always fought. ...And I've always lost it all. Maybe bed is worth trying. [She doesn't really believe what she's saying, but she's worn out and as much as she knows she'll just get up again, right now part of her wants to stay down.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The only thing staying in bed will do is give you more time to think unpleasant thoughts. Seriously. I don't recommend it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You've tested this course of action before? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[There's a long hesitation before Veronica admits something honest.] Yeah. I have. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Did the other way make you feel better? [She can't imagine feeling better right now. She knows it can't be like this forever, but right now in this moment it doesn't feel like better is really on the other side. She can't imagine what it would be like. She didn't used to think like that at all. There just was no future. There was just this moment and for awhile that was easier somehow.]

	It took awhile, but yeah. It did. There aren't any quick fixes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Right. Time. But I get to decide how to spend it. Lucky me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And I wasn't even supposed to be doing that anymore. It's great to see what I'm doing with my extension. (Reply to this) (Parent)
