Scenario requirements: Your character turns the corner and is suddenly greeted by an apparition of character of your choice, from either this meta OR from before it in their lives that was important to them. That character begins to talk to them, as if they were that person (just rp it out yourself for that part, as this is what your character THINKS is that character). Your character is CONVINCED that this is this person, and they are alive.
The apparition begins to accuse your character of things. They could be anywhere from "why are you making these choices" to "you did __ wrong". You feel paranoia and regret. If you are rping with multiple characters, for this part, you CANNOT see anything other than the apparition. The more they talk, the more the apparition's face, and body begins to rot, as if rapidly going through the stages of the infection. At the very end, you are left talking to an Infected version of the apparition, before it dissolves away. Their accusations never leave you
When the event is over, add +10 infection to your character's infection meter.

Frightened by the prospect of going back into the fog, Emmanuel decided to attempt being inside for a few minutes. It was hard to say if it would really help with anything...
Still, it felt better not being in the fog, and Emmanuel found some relief as he turned a corner...
Until he was faced with his mother.
Emmanuel froze in his tracks, staring, wide-eyed at the figure. He couldn't believe it. Why was she here? His eyes darted behind him and around before focusing back on the figure, finding that she wasn't going anywhere. She was here! She was here, though, and that caused Emmanuel's heart to jump into his throat. She shouldn't be here. Not here, with them, in Delta.
"Why are you here, Mom?" asked Emmanuel, frightened. "Are you okay?"
His mother tilted her head at him, and offered a smile, before a small, snide, "Oh bubbala, you were never very observant," slipped out of her lips.
Emmanuel was surprised, reeling back. He glanced down at himself, and back up at her, frowning. "Mom? Have you been here the whole time? I'm sorry I didn't come for you sooner..."
"Why didn't you come sooner, Emmanuel? Why didn't you come save me? I've been here, waiting for you!" She came closer to him, and Emmanuel instinctively backed away. Her scolding him immediately instilled guilt, and Emmanuel felt awful every time she opened her mouth. He was a failure. He had failed to help her or anyone else. All he did was stay shut away in the Apartments and he had only come out when he was left with no other option for himself. How could he forget her?
As he attempted to look at her eyes to apologize, Emmanuel found himself unable to speak. Her body no longer looked correct. Her face was ... melting. Decaying. He froze in place, perfectly still, before he started to quake, brought to his knees and hugging himself as he cried out and she continued to berate him.
"You have a lot of chutzpah showing your face around here after being such a failure, Emmanuel. Pick yourself up! Get off the ground! You never did well at anything, and you're just proving it now. Why did I ever let you go into esports? It was an absolutely absurd allowance--"
Now, her body resembled that of an infected, though her voice still seemed to echo, over and over, unrelenting in its tone or its presence. Emmanuel held back a scream, itching at his arms as it felt like his skin was crawling. She screamed and berated, and eventually, in front of his eyes, her infected body vanished into dust.
But no matter how quickly he ran, her voice still echoed in his head.
Infection Rate: +10 = 25/100
