Echo Requests (retired)

[theearth]

New Echo Request page here!

Please fill out this form when requesting an Echo, then post it to this entry. The request will be dealt with as soon as possible.

When requesting an Echo induced by a past-life parallel/recurrence, please demonstrate clearly the similarity between the events, as well as the relation between the events and what is returned.

As of September 2013, Tier 2 Echoes can be granted once a month per character. Take care to specify the limitations and/or level of detail to the Echo requested! If you are unsure, suggestions will be gladly offered.

Reason for Echo: What caused the Echo, whether it be by a plot-related trigger or a canon recurrence. For the latter, this must be unusual enough to have been the first time the character has encountered it within Locke City, and strongly resemble a specific event from canon. Picking up a jug of milk from the store will not cause an Echo if it isn't any different than the times the character has done it before.
Type and tier: Physical change, power/ability, mental/memory, or item/creature. Tier 1 are the regular Echoes, and are typically a single memory/ability/item/etc. Tier 2 are essentially two regular Echoes rolled into one, such as an item and a memory or ability associated with it, or two directly-related memories, or so on. Currently only one Tier 2 Echo is allowed per month, so please be sure to note them somehow on your info posts.
What is returned: In the case of canon recurrences, these must be directly related to what has caused the Echo. Stronger recurrences = stronger Echoes.

Player: Louise
Character: Octavia Serket
Reason for Echo: Karson asking if people remember dying.
What is returned: The memory of Vriska's first death - here up until the point her quest cocoon activates. (I'm assuming only one echo per trigger, thus only remembering her first death and not the second?)

Reason for Echo: Karson telling her he died in an explosion of green light.
What is returned: The completely contextless memory of an explosion of green light. Echo-based misunderstandings are my favourite thing okay you don't understand

[enrages]

Player: linda
Character: karson valenti
Reason for Echo: octavia using vriska's quirk - http://savetheearth.dreamwidth.org/183971.html?thread=17504163#cmt17504163
What is returned: karkat's typing in CAPSLOCK AND GREY.

[schild]

Player: Jan
Character: Ryan Brown
Reason for Echo: Talking about Titan's weak spots with Ellie.
What is returned: Sensitivity in the back of his neck. A leftover from his titan form.

Player: Jan
Character: Ryan Brown
Reason for Echo: Alan mentioning that 3D Gear might be used for killing titans.
What is returned: The ability/knowledge to use 3DMG! Which is useless since he doesn't have gear of his own, but... if/when he does, he'll be a natural.

Player: Jan
Character: Ryan Brown
Reason for Echo: Bertholdt's slow, titan-like movements. (This would be a recurring thing, since they share a bed often.)
What is returned: Some vague memories of the Colossal titan. Specifically: enough so that he won't be afraid of it.

[mood2wiingiing]

Player: Kya
Character: Soren/Sollux
Reason for Echo: Karson's post about people dying
What is returned: The memory of dying the first time (from the Vast Glub).

[boredallready]

Player: Kaito
Character: Lloyd Irving
Reason for Echo: Meeting Colette in person
What is returned: A memory of a Colette-shaped hole in the wall.

[drama8om8]

Player: Louise
Character: Octavia Serket
Reason for Echo: Karson doing Karkat's quirk.
What is returned: This conversation, please!

[angelskills]

Player: kero.
Character: colette brunel.
Reason for Echo: meeting lloyd face to face for the first time!
What is returned: just an instinctive trust of him, and the feeling that he's somehow familiar.

[rota]

Player: Trap
Character: Toni/Naoto
Reason for Echo: This conversation about people witht he same face despite being possibly different people and possibly doppelgangers with connections to each other... Yeah, she's confused too.
What is returned: The knowledge that the "her" she'd seen in her first echo was in fact her Shadow. Due to her psychology education, she'll instantly make the realization that shadows are the deep, dark, unexplored parts of a person's psyche and that this is likely a manifestation of her past self's deep, dark, unexplored parts.

Reason for Echo: This conversation again, this time the comment about the bug-person. In a thread about other selves and doppelgangers.
What is returned: The knowledge of her Persona's appearance, who is very bug-like. She'll also know he's a part of her, but not that he's a "Persona" or that she can summon him or anything else.

[entertainaplanb]

Player: Jill
Character: Becky Samson
Reason for Echo: Karson's post asking if anyone remembers dying, as she starts playing network catch-up.
What is returned: A line out of context: "You know, in a way, I'm lucky. Most Warehouse agents don't live long enough to die of cancer."

[extricated]

Player: Katherine
Character: N
Reason for Echo: (planned log) Noel will be meeting Haruka while she's wearing a bandanna with a Poké Ball motif to it.
What is returned: He'll recall the function of the Poké Ball for capturing Pokémon. With it returns a whole slew of mixed feelings on whether using them is for the better or for worse, which will eventually settle on for the worst.

[gogoghostpowers]

Player: Lisa
Character: Danny Fenton
Reason for Echo: Someone giving him the mental image of being a human guinea pig in a lab.
What is returned: The mental image he gets is of something that actually happened: being strapped to an operating table in a lab and having a laser pointed threateningly in his face by some scientist woman about to dissect him. He doesn't remember the context or the exact wording of the conversation.

[enrages]

Player: linda
Character: karson valenti
Reason for Echo: mac is straight up talking about fighting imps
What is returned: karson remembering karkat fighting the shit out of imps-- basically lill black monster things

[hawaiianheir]

Player: Mon
Character: Mac The Hack Kapule
Reason for Echo: karson's dumb tooly text quirk I'M SORRY FOR ALL THESE QUIRKS BOUNCING OFF EACH OTHER
What is returned: Knowledge of talking with a dumb asshole in gray text who shouted all the time like this. No name, but a vague sense of "wow this dumb piece of shit talked to me all the time"

[unbraid]

Player: seki
Character: Homura Akemi
Reason for Echo: THIS conversation with Octavia, in particular this comment. The phrasing isn't totally similar, but the meaning definitely is.
What is returned: Homura's memory of something that happened her first day at school in Mitakihara-- specifically, just a conversation she has with Madoka about 'becoming cooler to match her name'. The backhanded but definitely well-meaning compliment will just be remembered as something someone once said to her, with no memory of Madoka's identity just yet.

[eras]

Player: Lucy!
Character: Aria/Aradia Megido!
Reason for Echo: Glancing at Karson & Tavia quirking at one another. And Karson outright trying to trigger her.
What is returned: To her utter annoyance, the memory her quirk 1.0 (i.e. alive 1.0/ghost/sprite/robot version): typing with a pr0n0unced h0ll0wness t0 y0ur w0rds 0_0. it looks so ridiculous. she'll do her utmost to avoid it if approved.

Reason for Echo: Chatting with Alan, Aria realized she hadn't updated the gdoc of echoes with anything in a while and went to do that. And saw the entry: "Her Imperious Condescension" as she did so.
What is returned: The Condesce is definitely the leader of wherever-she-was.

[soulsborderline]

Player: Nerdo
Character: Asuka Langley Soryu
Reason for Echo: Drinking the water (on purpose, in a post that will go up when my kid is not chewing on me)
What is returned: The memory of Shinji Ikari running around in one of her (female) plugsuits (the spandexy pilot suit things they wore). Also the memory that she made him wear it, but not the why or the context.

[drama8om8]

Player: Louise
Character: Octavia
Reason for Echo: Mac is going to mention that his name was John now that echo up there got approved I don't have a link yet gotta type fast
What is returned: This conversation, please!

I'm so sorry really I am oh my god

[mood2wiingiing]

Player: Kya
Character: Soren
Reason for Echo: Aria using Aradia's quirk at him
What is returned: this conversation if that's alright!

[lackinginfaith]

Player: Jisu
Character: Kari Acosta
Reason for Echo: Conversation with Hajime about transforming into something not entirely human to fight.
What is returned: The memory that she was able to transform into a magical girl and what she looked like at the time... which will probably confuse her to no end.

[dominateartimus]

Player: Joc
Character: Xander Jarle / Sandrath
Reason for Echo: Drinking the tap water by accident, if that's still plot relevant?
What is returned: A memory of Sandrath enduring some torture (his true form protecting Conleth's body from various injuries) until he's dosed with 'demon blood', which forces him aside as Conleth takes over.

[dyingtohealyou]

Player: Dani
Character: Ahito / Akito Tanabe
Reason for Echo: Also talking about being a human guinea pig in a lab
What is returned: A memory of that one time when he was a kid in a lab getting a needle stuck in his eye.

[stavros]

Player: Jisu
Character: Tessa Hart
Reason for Echo: Robot lady explaining that they've been basically drafted to fight an alien invasion.
What is returned: Memory of another robot lady summoning Kokoro and another girl (Hanafuuma) to join the G-Organization and fight Bacterians. She'll remember what Operetta and Hanafuuma looked like, but not their names, and that there were alien invaders, but not what they looked like or what they were called.

[neonnerd]

Player: Bri
Character: Benjamin Ratchet
Reason for Echo: Discussing war echoes with Xander here
What is returned: The feeling that his other self was involved in a war

[dancingonapin]

Player: Kat
Character: Aziraphale (Dr. Francis Fell)
Reason for Echo: Canon recurrence: Being shot at by a pair of muggers with blanks, the shock of which actually knocks him down. Mirrors canon where he and Crowley were shot with paintball guns and consequently knocked to the ground, believing they'd been killed when in actuality the shots were (mostly) harmless.
What is returned: Dream of a memory where he and a friend were brutally shot by a man with a paintball gun, and that his primary concern at the time was how his expensive shirt had been completely ruined and how it wouldn't be right for him to simply 'bless' the paint stains away.

[allinvein]

Player: Azi
Character: John Mitchell
Reason for Echo: During monster movie night, he roots around in Alex's fridge and checks out his collection of blood products jello.
What is returned: He remembers this one instance when he rooted around a hospital fridge filled with packaged blood products and then proceeded to pocket it for another vampire named Lauren. John will also recall the feeling of bloodlust while staring at the blood, but he won't actually regain said bloodlust just yet.
