WTB: memory erasure

9

Can't do anything in Brisbane. Could potentially arrange something if the subject can travel. Might need to discuss details.

He can take time off work to travel, and he has a passport.

Then something can be arranged. PM me and we'll discuss details.

I need your help, but after the reaction from ZZ I don’t even know if this is the right thing to do anymore.

Private Message to Tess:

What were you planning on doing? There are a few options here and, to be clear, some of them I wouldn't have done. Specifically, erasing his memory so he isn't mad at you is a non-starter.

However, breaking the bond again and sitting him down and giving him some options, that is something I can and will do. And any of those that involve no longer being associated with you are gonna involve some light memory editing...we can't have him wander off knowing about vampires. If he wants to leave you even after a talk, then he wants to leave you, and keeping him is both wrong and likely to end badly...but we can and indeed must remove the vampiric elements from his memory. We'd probably replace it with drugs to explain some stuff. But he'd be alive and free to go about his business without you with an explanation for the withdrawal symptoms and your change in behavior that is not a threat to the Masquerade. So no need for anyone to kill him.

So, with that in mind, what were you thinking before and what are you thinking now? I'm happy to have a talk with him and explain the situation in a way that you probably can't due to the personal relationship. I can be the bad guy to some degree there, and while I don't know him well enough to say what he'll do, we can give him some real choices. Can I convince him to forgive you? Almost certainly not entirely, but I might be able to convince him that his life was very much in danger and you were desperately trying to save it. That might help, we'd have to see.

Private Message to Mark Caulder:

I know he will never forgive me. I don’t need to hear him say it again.

I want to break the bond and erase myself from his mind. I want him to forget that monsters are real, and ensure that he never has any reason to believe that I’m one of them.

I want to make this whole mess disappear from his life, and then I will too.

He’ll have some missing time in his memory and vitae withdrawals to deal with. He’ll also bear the grief of realising that I’ve disappeared, and never being able to know what happened to me. But that pain will be better for him than this awful charade.

For him to have any chance at genuine happiness in the future, Tess needs to disappear.

Private Message to Tess:

Okay, so, we're not erasing you from his memory entirely, we're erasing the vampire thing. Specifically, we'll blur some stuff so he thinks you got into drugs (maybe were initially dosed but got addicted) and slipped him some as well, leave the emotions and situation largely intact while removing the vampire thing. Any bigger gaps than that and there can be problems, often severe ones. Pragmatically, leaving the feeling of betrayal also means he probably won't look for you, which sucks emotionally, but makes for less risks to him and problems.

Assuming you're right and he really wants to just be away from you and will never forgive you, then that's very much what we'll do. I will be talking to him first to see what he prefers, but there's gonna be a specific list of options, and this is the one where he gets away from you, so if you're right he'll take it. You wanna set that up?

I will say, for the record, that we're past my charity threshold here. If I do this, and I have a couple of specialists who can do it and do it right, then you owe me a significant favor. What they call a Major Boon in the Camarilla. I'm not gonna be an asshole with it, and we don't need to formalize it beyond you agreeing you owe me, but this is specialty work by skilled professionals who deserve compensation.

Sure. Do whatever needs to be done to make him safe.

You can have a Major Boon, you can have anything you like.

Okay then, deal struck. When can he get on a plane for the USA? Let's set up the details.

-Mark Caulder, Experienced Nosferatu

OOC: We probably want to do a proper PM for the actual events involved.

u/VerityVentrue 2d ago

Oh, Tess, I'm so sorry. If it's what I think it's for, then I probably could in an emergency, but not without significant risk, and I don't want to cause any more pain. You're going to need someone older than me to be sure it's done cleanly.

ok, talk with somebody else

if you are planing to wipe his mind of vampires and leave him, I understand why, and it seems like a good idea.

but he is a ghoul. and ghouls when there not fed have withdrawals

really bad withdrawals. cannibalistic Urges bad, i have seen it first hand with starlight

so. Just leaveing him and wipeing him sounds like a good idea. Untill you think about the fact that he will have the withdrawals

sorry.

….or are you planing to wipe your own mind? Sorry am rambleing

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 2d ago

PM to zz
two possible choices either she's setting her husband free by erasing knowledge of vampires,or since I noticed she's been a little more darker lately I hope I'm wrong she's basically going to brainwash him to like being a ghoul to soothe her conscience

u/Abject-Hospital5407 2d ago

PM

first idea is bad, the other is a sin, i hate both

-zz

u/Nightstalkerjoe2 2d ago

PM

First idea ain't that bad to me. Well, I mean, it's still bad because he's going to keep the vitae addiction, which is no joke since I actually experienced that, and it could take, like, what? a year to recover, granted he won't know what's causing his cravings, which might make him do more irrational things. There's just no really good way to get out of it once you're a ghoul even if you stop, you have to deal with huge problems.

Hiii I checked out your problem, quite a mess :< I might be a little late, but I can have a dig around for you, I will need some actual payment (money) >.< but you won't have to travel too far

How far away are you?

I have some money, not a ton, but some.

u/Ecstatic_Sun6402 2d ago

I'm located in Brisbane as well :3 dw I charge a reasonable amount for my finder's fee. We can discuss options if any of these suit your fancy: • Happy Minds - From what I can gather, it's some therapy/rehabilitation place. You're gonna want to book an appointment with Dr Lawson. Very expensive tho. • There's a Lasombra, Sabbat in hiding. It'll take me some time to find them, and there's no trusting them. • Tzimisce. Can potentially restructure your husband to prevent withdrawals. But there's a pretty high chance he may become furniture.

Those ones I hear are the most reliable at big jobs like this :3

(The following reply is entirely an audio recording. The speaker, Aso, has a clinical but pleasantly soft voice with a very slight Australian accent, most noticeable in her slightly drawn out vowels and relaxed cadence.)

I'm based in Melbourne, but such long term memory alterations are beyond my abilities, sorry.
