EVERYTHING SOUTH OF THIS POST IS A BACK-UP ARCHIVE FROM WHEN THIS JOURNAL WAS USED FOR [insanejournal.com profile] sabra_la_tau
assumedposition: (Default)
What it is:
Scene transcription(s) )

What he learned: PEPPO IS A DICKBAG :( Also is way too interested in his mother's affairs what. NO OEDIPUS COMPLEX HERE SIR \o_o/.

What this means: Not much, it's not really a personality-impacting memory.

Taken on: Day 201
assumedposition: (Default)
Name Albert Herrera (TOTALLY PRONOUNCED THE ENGLISH WAY, WITH THE T ON THE END, not the French way [Albear] like you call him in Sabra.)
Home Country ??? (Presumed by everyone including himself to be Hydra, but every once in a while SOMEONE WILL WONDER.)

PS I might have changed some things from the gdoc 83a )

ETA: THERE DONE RELATIONSHIPS CHART sorta um if I missed you or we haven't hashed details out yet or if you WANT to comment here and we'll do stuff OTHERWISE I GUESS WE WILL JUST LEAVE IT UP TO GAMEPLAY >D.

What it is:
Scene transcription )

What he learned: Nnnnnot much. Bit of a nothing memory really. More confirmation that his family is/was at the very top of society, etc.

What this means: Again, not much. Perhaps more distaste for his old life.

Taken on: Day 205
assumedposition: (never let you go)
What it is:
Note: this memory is another childhood snippet actually narrated by Franz, so I'm inserting quite a bit of headcanon conclusions drawn from whatever's implied in the series to complete the scraps of this scene that are presented but not explained from Albert's perspective.

Short scene description + transcription! )

What he learned: Not much from this memory, other than how he met Franz, and boy he was a bit callous as a kid huh. ETA: If he was a bit older I'd probably say something here about Latin and Catholicism because of the service but uh he's seven (or thereabouts) so I'm just gonna say ... not much more than a surface awareness gleaned.

What this means: No real impact in Sabra since NO FRANZ sob \o/;;;. Just a generally happy relationship memory. Someone app my gay boyfriend alreadyyyy.

Taken on: Day 205
assumedposition: (Default)
All the neg-sigs ever on the network, awwwwwwwwriiiiiiiiight.

What it is:
SUPER short memory but still fun for the whole family :'). )

What he learned:
- I'm dead...?
- MY DAD KILLED ME?! Wait what
- AND MY MOTHER??????
- BAD END

What this means:
ALL THE DADDY ISSUES IN THE WORLD EVER.

(Sort of) Explanation: so this is SUPER HILARIOUS in the context of ... the fact that Albert so far has ONLY gotten back negative memories of his father in Sabra so far and no positive ones. Prior to getting this memory back, there would have been some chance of repairing Albert's negative feelings towards his father through getting other positive memories back, but this memory kind of just negates everything and from now on there is very little chance Albert will ever be able to accept or reconcile any positive memories of his father he gets back later with ... this. Short of a heart game anyway :|a.

... Also will probably presume himself to be dead and thus the reason he came to Sabra :'D.

Taken on: Day 205

What it is:
Long transription! )

What he learned:
He didn't really learn a lot factually from this memory, it was more of an emotional one. (Although IN HINDSIGHT there is a lot of important plot backstory going on in this memory coming from the Count, but Albert doesn't have the right memories to realise that yet, just as he does not at this point in canon either.) Most importantly, how he feels about the Count... yep, this confirms it, definitely gay for him. Also yay drugs! (I'm only being slightly facetious.)

What this means:
This memory won't really have much of a noticeable effect on his personality Sabra-wise, he's already depressed from recent events, so ... yyyeah. It miiiight increase his clingyness and ... earnestness to please slightly, for the ... applicable people. This memory comes at a time when he feels like he doesn't know who to turn to or lean on in canon, and it's ... a similar kind of feeling in Sabra as well. :(

Taken on: Day 186
assumedposition: (Default)
This is a SUPER dialogue heavy scene and the exact dialogue wording is not overall THAT important so I'm not going to transcribe the whole thing. It is essentially just an introduction of various characters and Albert's parents. This is what happens (watch me do this entirely from memory for a scene spanning two separate episodes, my life is sad):

What it is:
Short description! )

What he took away from it:
* This memory very obviously takes place months before the election scandal.
* Now he knows why he owes his life to the Count, even if he doesn't recall the entire event clearly.
* Still gay for the Count. More about the Count's ~mysterious character~.
* Definitely a virgin.
* His close male friends' full names and positions.
* Art appreciation... :|a?
* MY FATHER IS A LYING LIAR FACE RRRAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR

What this means:
+ HATE DAD
+ LOVE COUNT!!
+ Mixed feelings on mother :(a...
Basically more of the same old same old.

Everyone cool was doing it! ... Also I wanted to articulate it somewhere so I could stop blathering at every single person right now.

Albert as of Day 179 )


Oops that got kinda long.

Wooooooo. Now that that's all done, you can, idk, question meme away at me! Anything is fair game, including dot points I didn't touch upon in that SOTU, relationships (UNLESS YOUR NAME IS DERA), hot or not, ms paint, idek go wild. Fic meme is veto'd though since I can't write :|b.

ETA: This has nothing to do with the post, I just thought I'd stick it on the end as a ~general notice~ type thing to apologise for my flakiness lately. Bad timezone + midterms next week mean I've only been getting a few comments in here and there every day. If you don't mind slow threading, we coooool :|b. Also if I dropped a thread you wanted to pick up, kick me. o7

Fufu, wrote a detailed summary of this scene (+ a few others) while I was writing up Albert's memory registry, so no transcribing this time.

What it is:
Albert meets Eugénie at a cafe. They make small talk and discuss her mother's condition, which seems to be fine. Eugénie changes the subject to tell him that she'll finally be making her piano concert debut in the opera house and gives him a ticket. He's genuinely excited and happy for her.

Albert then returns home happy, only to have his parents tell him that the Danglars family has called off his engagement to Eugénie. Albert is confused and alarmed, as he only just saw Eugénie and yet heard nothing about it. He returns to his room, confused, where Peppo is cleaning. She asks him why he doesn't just ask Eugénie himself what's going on, but Albert replies that the problem is probably bigger than just the two of them. He wonders what her feelings on the matter are? Peppo comments that perhaps Albert is only just beginning to understand how important she is to him now that he's lost her.

What he learned:
- His engagement to Eugénie wasn't called off because of his Father's scandal! (So... why?) Clearly this memory takes place BEFORE the piano concert memory AND the scandal one.
- Starting to understand a little where the SUDDEN FEELINGS from the piano concert memory came from.
- Peppo is DEFINITELY a maid in his household. ... Wtf how did that even happen, anyway.

What this means:
+50 ANGST OVER NOT-GIRLFRIEND :(
Albert's gotten back now a memory where he doesn't love Eugénie, a memory where he's confused over whether he does or not, and then a memory where he does love her. HOWEVER at this point, given the specific things he's remembered, he's fairly sure there's no chance they'll ever be able to get together, because she's aristocracy and he's ... not! Anymore. So he will just sit and quietly angst about how he has the shittiest luck in love. SHOULD'VE JUST STAYED FRIENDS. BAW.

Taken on: Day 197 lololo whoops taken after the others because I forgot about it.
assumedposition: (never let you go)
What it is
[Albert and Franz are about 12 or thereabouts-- definitely prepubescent, but not too young-- riding on their bicycles down a large, wide-open park in Paris as the sun sets. It seems like a generally lazy afternoon as Albert rides a few paces behind Franz. Albert breaks into casual conversation.]
Albert: Hey, who do you like? C'mon, tell me!
Albert: At least give me a hint!
[Franz keeps riding but looks back at Albert with a smile.]
Franz: You wouldn't understand.

What he learned
This is actually one of Franz's flashbacks, but ALBERT IS IN IT, SO IT COUNTS AS A MEMORY. It's just a short snippet of the time they spent together as children. SHORT AND SWEET MEMEORY, doesn't actually learn much except that Franz has someone he likes and it's a secret for some reason :O!!

What this means
No real effect, as Sabra has neither bikes nor Franz :|b.

I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO DO ANOTHER RELATIONSHIP MEME FOR ALBERT AGAIN ALREADY YOU GUYS what the shit.

So instead have one of those question meme things idk spoilers: I am too lazy to even copy+paste the meme text. You should know how it goes by now.

Also I'll give you another free question if Albert's thoughts haven't changed at all since the last meme :|a. Though for a lot of people they have. so. orz /o/;;.
