[Vaggie vibrates with discomfort. She thought about trying to channel Charlie, but the horrible rictus grin that was all she could manage in the mirror scared even her. She will instead pretend Charlie is behind her, making encouraging noises and trying to do more than two thumbs-up at a time.]

Feels like these disappearances hit in clusters lately. Maybe I'm making shit up. The pattern doesn't matter. Um.

[She's flubbing this already.]

I'm sure people do this on their own here and there, but I think we could use... a memorial wall? A garden? Someplace for names and mementos. Lots of inmates who disappear are going back to be dead with no recourse or afterlife, and, fuck, half the wardens who go aren't better off. Some of them, we might be the only people in the multiverse or whatever who remember them. Sucks if they had a lot of people. Sucks even more if they kept to themselves and disappeared in a couple months, and nobody knows their names after a couple passenger turnovers.

Plus if you come back you can take whatever shit people left for you and chuck it off the fuckin' boat.

I'm not... artsy, but I don't have a temp this round. If people are up for it I can take logistics and deal with the admiral. Support from you creative types appreciated. I don't know, I'm imagining... plaques? Keepsakes?

I started putting up memorials in that weirdly calming tree? Just paper cranes with people's names on them. But the more shit the merrier, yeah?

People dont have to grieve in just one way.

There’s a memorial room in the counselling offices. …I promise it’s not a ploy to get people into the counselling office. [An awkward laugh.] Anyway, anyone is welcome to use it. If you want to do memorial art on one of the walls, I think that’d be nice. One of my best friends from here, who’s gone now, is an artist. I think he’d appreciate an ever-evolving mural.

I feel like there's a touch of irony in your attempt to solve the problem of cultural memory and mourning in this place... in something completely novel and unrelated to any preexisting endeavor.

That seems to happen far too often for this to be a feasible idea. The ship would not have enough room for all those who disappear.

There've been shrines an' niches before, in the chapel an' the garden near it. I haven't been there since the last time it burned down, but there was some mullin' a while back 'bout makin' some stone shit so it inn't as much of an issue. Don't know if the idea was DOA.

As far as I'm aware, the stuff in the counselin' office is mostly notes fer people, but I don't go in there either.

I know that ain't all that much of a help, but maybe the chapel folk do better. Not sure who that is, at the moment, though.

Re: Audio

[personal profile] empathicfault 2025-07-03 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
The counseling office has a quiet room with a bunch of lockers in it. You can save memories or letters or whatever reminds you of the person. And when you leave, you take the key to the locker you used with you. Kiryu set it up originally, I think. That's for more private contemplation and remembrance.

But it sounds like she's looking for something more public, maybe something that anyone could contribute to? Maybe we could put something in one of the hallways. We'd have to make sure with the Admiral that it won't disappear over time.

Yeah. It can be... a lot. Even when it's someone you know will be okay back home.

I like Hanna's memorial cranes. But I'm not sure we could do anything that'd make everyone happy.
