Who: All regular Blanks
Where: In your dorms
When: Day 155 and 156
What:

[It doesn't really happen all at once, or to every dorm at the same time. But over these two days, you might spy a tiny spider slipping under the door. It is soon followed by several others, skittering along the floor, up the common room table and small cocoons of webbing are industriously opened. Almost as quickly and efficiently they scatter, vanishing.

If you missed this event... then perhaps you simply looked over and saw six small memory berries and the traces of webbing around them, fine threads catching the torchlight.]

((OOC: Two things! FIRST! Start your dorm's threads with [Your Team Name] for the sake of organization. SECOND. When you take your memories, ping Nishi with a thread link.))

As you swallow the memory berry, you feel something in your stomach clench and your mind seems to fray at the edges for a split second as you experience the memory unfolding in your consciousness.
When you first saw her, you thought she was laughing. Running in from the fruit fields, the fair lady you'd fancied.. her face was twisted up. It wasn't until you saw that, that you dropped your pike and ran to her, realizing the sound wasn't mirth but somewhere between a hiccup, sob and a wretched start of a scream.

She flings herself on you, shoulders trembling. She'd hysterical and you can't make out a word.

"MILLI! Milli calm down, what's wrong!"

"S'just bones! The old man, all that's left are bones." You grip her shoulders, fear making you break into a cold sweat despite the heat.

"Milli... this is important... the soil, was it movin'? Were there holes?"

A fresh bout of tears wells up and she seems on the brink of hysteria again. She shudders, collapsing in your hold. Her voice is barely a whisper. "S'in m'ankle. One got in..."

As you return, the memory settles, interlaced with the rest of your recovered life, as if that was just another part of the world and people you left behind. It's hard to shake any of the conviction that it was real and it had happened to you, any more than you would a normal memory.

[There is the gentle sound of a shuttle moving through taut thread, and as the memory settles deep, your eyes open to the familiar garments of your kin on both yourself and those around you, dyed proud and bright.

Whoever thought wear like this wasn't practical never stepped more than a day of the dock, out to where the only things that changed were the wind and the swell and the dance of the sky. Long-sleeved, collared shirts in soft blue, woven from panna thread, and buttoned by carved, sturdy circles of keele shell can be rolled up or down, worn open or closed, and the accompanying spider-silk tie knotted to the wearer's style. The pants (and lone skirt) are crisp and straight-lined; the weave is thicker and more durable, clearly intended for active work. To top it all off is a sturdy bridge coat woven from badgercroc wool, wonderful stuff that turns but all the worst drenching and stays warm besides. Its buttons—and there are several of them, in two long lines down the front—are made from the same sturdy shell. Slick, practical boots finish the outfit off.

There's pride to be had in such clothing, even when adrift on the farthest seas. Even now, the faint scent of saltwater remains.]
