memories

• my name was not Jamison Junkenstein.
  • "junkenstein" was just about how my last name was pronounced; i don't know if it had an O or an A or another vowel. it was very much german.
  • "jamison" was not my first name either. i think it started with an M.
    • it might've been marcel/marzell?
• i wasn't australian. why would i have been?
  • my mother was german; my father was an englishman, i believe. he was on vacation. i didn't see him much if at all as a kid, and i don't know why.
    • he either died or just left and never came back
  • i took my mother's last name
• i'd like to think i was genuinely a kind person. bad at boundaries, a little selfish, overall WEIRD, but i wasn't like a dick
  • i didn't revel in others' suffering until later
• i knew i wanted to go into science from a young age and commonly got way too close to things than i should've. particularly dead things
  • got sick Often. think i may have had some sort of disease from playing with fucking dead animals
• did legitimately have white hair, might've been vitiligo
• tinkered in my spare time, robots were correct to comics despite sciency shit; that was advanced i think
  • showed them to the king time and time again in hopes i'd get a job
• the monster was absolutely part of this; i sort of cracked after being rejected so many times after i'd slaved over so many things. he was a product of hubris and compensation
  • the monster's head was genuinely a pig head. i don't remember if i killed it but i remember touching it. was. pretty gross, gotta say!
  • i knew what shocks did (read it in a textbook i stole, i believe) and decided maybe that would work
  • ...it didn't
• the witch of the wilds had been in legends my mom had read me as a kid to stay on my best behavior; i could barely believe she was real
  • it wasn't hard to make the decision to take her power
• i fell a little in love with the monster. we don't talk about it
  • we can if you want just like oh, my god, marzell
• i was legitimately killed by the first four wanderers but was revived soon after
• being revived felt weird and electric and fake. it really disconnected me from my body
  • i couldn't feel pain as vividly as before and felt like it was hitting something that wasn't. me, like some sort of forcefield or another layer of skin
• i got really really paranoid after i was killed for the first time but i did not let that dampen my desire to commit crimes
• i did legitimately fight back against the second group of wanderers but most of it was hiding
  • mostly throwing acid in beakers; i also had a few riptires and could use electricity in a way
  • i also had "rip-tires," which were just wooden wheels with reactionary chemicals or acids tied to them. nothing very sophisticated, and most created in a hurry
• they killed the witch before they tried to kill me
• i did not die. i was injured to the point where i was incapable of getting back up but i did not die.
  • i could not die after being revived. i did not die.
  • this fucks me up more than i care to admit.
