[semi-closed] hello i walk into empty
Who: jongdae lee & folks!
When: aereuer 13th.
Where: the looking-glass house + memories
What: dream a little dream catch-all!!
Warnings: violence, gore, emotional/physical abuse, trauma, death (will update if anything further).

[ for most, jongdae's mirror is just as boring and plain as all the others. its bright, silvery glass is the only thing remarkable about it but then every mirror that isn't cracked and abandoned can claim the same.
those that know him a bit better can see some of the details emerge from the frame. the delineation of two distinct halves is the most obvious and noticeable — one half is rendered in a pale, nearly white wood while the other is rich and dark like ebony. they meet in stark lines of light and dark, swirling and tangling with each other along their boundaries. it's not at all a seamless transition, like the eye is meant to be drawn to the fact that they don't meet cleanly. it's all a bit lopsided as well, perhaps infuriating to those who prefer symmetry. the ebony wood more strongly encroaches upon the light wood, to the point that it might be more accurate not to say each colour occupies a strict half at all. along the topmost part of the frame the patterns come together to clearly form the digits 2 and 0.
it might be possible detect a deeper layer beyond that where the light wood is inlaid with gold that branches out into finer and smaller fractal patterns or where the wood has been carved into flowing shapes like feathered wings. similar designs appear on the dark wood as well, although the gold has been replaced with silver and the shapes are harsh and angular, soft feathers replaced with hard bone claws. ]

( OOC : for good organisational purposes because ya boi is scattered, i am keeping all the memshare stuff in this log. i'm also not writing open prompts just because i already have A LOT and this is sure to be A LOT so i want to make sure i have the capacity! HOWEVER if you'd like a memory and we haven't already talked via the cr meme or plurk you can also find a list of memory options here and you can contact me via pm, plurk (
koutenko), or discord (koutenko#5884) and i will make for you a prompt!
i will keep adding to this as i write prompts~ )

[ he picks a pencil up off one of the desks and plays with it, having learned the sort of mindless pen tricks that look more complicated than they probably are. ]
It's my—.. what is this? A dream? Inside my head? You'd think the person it belongs to should be able to do whatever they want..
[ he pauses again, because he really does just say stuff sometimes to avoid having to say what he really should be saying. ]
It is better now, yeah. I just don't want to be an inconvenience to anyone. We're all trying to figure out why we're here and what's happening and all this monster shit too..? Like.. that's important stuff.

[ she pauses, though, at that last part. ]
You're right, it is important. But I don't think it's fair to dismiss your own struggles either! It's okay to talk about this stuff, Jongdae. I don't think it's inconveniencing anyone.

[ jongdae waves his hands a little like that's going to make the point without the words he's missing. one can assume he's referring to just going up to someone and talking about things that aren't just random, trivial things. ]
This kind of stuff's pretty heavy, so it'd be asking someone to carry it. And then I wouldn't know for sure if I know someone well enough that they'd be willing to. I mean, if someone wanted to talk to me I wouldn't mind. Just saying that's kind of how I think about it for other people..
[ enough with the awkward handwaving he shoves them in his pockets just to stop. ]
Uh.. anyway.. I don't know how this works exactly. Didn't mean to trap you here like, in my head..
