Damn it, Symphonia won't let me save the unicorn before I go to Asgard Ranch. I just want to get Resurrection for Raine as soon as possible, it makes everything so much easier... no more relying on Life Bottles....

Much better Lore - it's sort of complicated for me, as I wasn't able to do GCSE maths this year for reasons outside of my control, so I'm going to try and pull that off in a year, as well as hopefully do all of A level French in one year. This ... has been discussed at length, and I think I can do it, but I'm going to have to do a LOT of French. After that, I'm thinking both English Literature and Language, aaaand I haven't really thought any further than that. I'll end up spending three years at sixth form, I guess. Sounds complicated... Still, good luck to you! I actually had to do a couple more A-Levels myself. I didn't quite make the cut, and I can't afford to try overseas. All I need to do is get a B in Film Studies and Creative Writing...

I'm entirely free on Wednesdays this term, at least! Probably will just be used for homework, but that's okay.

That's encouraging! I really like both of those subjects so I am genuinely quite excited to do them... eventually.
My sixth form isn't technically running A level French, so I'm going to be the only one in my year doing it. So basically, I have no classes with other people. That... will be strange.

English Lit's a great subject, so I'm sure you'll love it. ^^ I don't envy you there. It sounds downright terrifying...

I did terribly in As French. I thought I was okay at it, but apparently I was not.

French is hard. Languages are kind of my Thing, but I will not dispute that they're difficult. They definitely, definitely are.

They are so precious! One of the males had opened his eyes after only 9 days. And it's been 16 days now? The rest have opened their eyes. That's cute. c: I'm glad their doing well.

Sorry again, Green!
You said that you researched a lot about PTSD, right? May I ask how someone would act when confronted by something that would trigger memories of the incident, if you know, please?

Sorry again, Green! You said that you researched a lot about PTSD, right? May I ask how someone would act when confronted by something that would trigger memories of the incident, if you know, please? This situation depends on your character. Every reaction is different, however the similarities are violent tendencies and anxiety. The first domino is anxiety, when confronted they'll react primarily with fear and anxiety which will then switch over to a violent reaction. This can either be an internal reaction where they completely shut down or external where they are locked in their head battling it out in the physical world. So far with me? Anxiety will lead to a violent reaction. After this they can be trapped for an unknown amount of time in their heads. But remember, PTSD is the past refusing to let go of the person so everything is a mental battle. Knowing this helps learn exactly how your character will react. Mental battles are the most horrifying experience and as someone with anxiety, I have personal experience with several of these reactions. The anxiety can be found in panic attacks, put of body experiences, or complete emotional cut off. The last two aren't well known due to their invisible involvement. Out of body experience with anxiety is terrifying. You don't understand anything. You can recognize them but theyre unfamiliar, your own body doesn't feel like yours. Emotional cut off is exactly that. You cannot function in that situation so you refuse to emotionally accept it to protect yourself. Also scary because this is reminiscent of depression and will lead to cold-hearted apathy and depression. Most violent reactions are either internal agony and hatred. You shut down physical and will not respond. Externally you are unable to control your reactions because your mind is trapped in the loop of the event. Your character will act out of character because of this. That's really a mild version. I can pm you the bigger picture when ever you want.

I think I get the idea. Thanks, Green! I was just asking to try and make my MC's reaction more accurate. She did have a sort of flashback to the situation, bit I wasn't sure if there was more that I needed.
I'll be sure to remember this, thank you.

Like I said, it really depends on your character. What I've written is the generalization of PTSD trigger reactions. But also don't trust movies if you're using them as a base for research. They lie for the dramatic effect
