OOC: Second "Memory" Crystal
[[OOC: This has been mod-approved. The "memory" can be viewed here.]]
Ever since he had received the crystal from Praise, Alexi decided to put off viewing it until he was at his lonesome. Previous experience suggested that memories were either really awesome or just flat out bad, and the possibility one might be somewhere in between never occurred to him.
Callused fingertips gripped the stone, and like before, the world around him faded into darkness.
Rhythmic beats met his ears, and for a fraction of a second, a smug sense of satisfaction passed through his mind. Another music relating memory. This would have to be badass, he just knew it.
But only for a half a second.
The music continued playing, and the surrounding area livened with brightness and out-of-fashion decor. This melody... wasn't remotely metal. Or brutal. A redhead that Alexi didn't recognize in the slightest shook his shoulders and hips to the tempo, singing an upbeat ballad about...
"Never gonna give you up,
Never gonna let you down,
Never gonna run around and
Desert you
Never gonna make you cry,
Never gonna say goodbye,
Never gonna tell a lie and
Hurt you"
A chill started from the back of his neck, a strong shudder running across his shoulders and all the way down his spine.
Alexi just stared, eyes wide with horror, expression shocked and utterly vacant.
As the pop song came to a close, the sounds faded as did the view, and reality came back into his sight once more.
Alexi had no doubt that music played a significant role in his previous life, but that wasn't exactly what he had in mind. After his trip in the elevator, he had been so sure he had the general idea of his life figured out, but now he had no idea.
