AS RIPPED OFF BAKERSTREET WHOLESALE

[amoray]

The C&C Support Group Meme



Per Wikipedia:

In a support group, members provide each other with various types of help, usually nonprofessional and nonmaterial, for a particular shared, usually burdensome, characteristic. The help may take the form of providing and evaluating relevant information, relating personal experiences, listening to and accepting others' experiences, providing sympathetic understanding and establishing social networks. A support group may also work to inform the public or engage in advocacy.

And now you know. And knowing's half the battle.

- Post with a character.

- Unlike most memes, you'd probably be better off by providing a general theme for people to respond to. You know, have your subject or post read "People who got turned into animals in their respective games" or "Time travelers and keeping the space/time continuum intact."

- Respond to other people and support them through their trials and tribulations.

- NOTE: While you're welcome to post whatever the hell you want, if you delve into triggery whatnot (i.e. abuse, suicide, things which tend to actually evoke real life support groups and therapy) please label your posts with a nice and blatant warning so someone who was looking for Time Travelers Anonymous doesn't accidentally stumble into your suicide thread instead.

PEOPLE PERSONALLY VICTIMIZED BY NORMAN OSBORN

[bedeviledspider]

[webline]

Welp.

[bedeviledspider]

Yeahhhhh.

[professorlionface]

Oh.

[bedeviledspider]

Let me guess, you're thinking: "That explains some things."

Am I right? Or has he just gotten to everyone?

[professorlionface]

The second.

[bedeviledspider]

Sorry to hear that, Dr. McCoy.

[professorlionface]

You and I both.

But I imagine you'll be just as hesitant to share specifics, hmm?

[bedeviledspider]

It is kind of personal...

Sorry.

[professorlionface]

As I anticipated. They usually tend to be, don't they?

[bedeviledspider]

He's good at ruining lives.

It would almost be admirable if it wasn't so awful.

[professorlionface]

I think "the best there is at what he does" is a title already claimed by someone else.

[bedeviledspider]

Good point, good point.

I wouldn't want to compare the two.

[bests]

We're going to need a bigger room.

[bedeviledspider]

Pfft, true. Something at least half the City can fit into.

[bests]

It's going to be a wonderful day when we finally get to throw him behind bars again.

[bedeviledspider]

Tell me about it.

Though I might settle for punching him in the face again.

[bests]

That is always pretty damn satisfying.

[bedeviledspider]

[ GRIN. ] Yeah.

Would've been more satisfying if he recognized me, but I'll take it.

[bests]

Heh. [ aww yes grinning about beating people up... there's nothing wrong with this at all... maybe it's time for a subject change ]

So do you want to mention whatever it was he did in true support group fashion, or would you rather keep talking about something else?

[bedeviledspider]

[ what are you talking about? grinning over beating people up is the most normal thing ever why you feel ashamed of that?

also, please pay no attention to the way his grins drops in an instant. ]

No, it's fine, it's... not that bad. Comparatively. What about you?

[bests]

There's not really a point to being here if you're not going to talk. That's how these things go.

[ but she figures avoiding the question sets a bad example if she's gonna say that, so hell. why not. ]

Long story short, he pulled some strings so I died in an almost tragically poetic way. I got better, but blowing up over Hong Kong was something I could've done without.

[bedeviledspider]

Maybe I just wanted to give other people a place to talk. It does help to know you're not alone.

[ avoiding the question forever awwwww yeahhhh ]

That's rough. I've heard he has things for explosives and using them on people, but... [ Shakes his head. ] At least he's never killed me.

[ Was that a brief frown on his face? ]

[futurebatwoman]

[ she doesn't know or she'd be here. Norman. ]

[bedeviledspider]

[ If he knew he'd share her pain. Norman. ]
