#RAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

[officialcreepypastareheated]

Newspaper article from 2003 sourced from the evidence file.

Jewelry enthusiast, [REDACTED], uses wealth to purchase coal vein rumored to hold minerals that could make her a millionaire. Townsfolk doubt the legitimacy of these claims.

When asked what she plans to use the wealth for she responds

"Simply put, I want to put it back into the community. The town may be small but some of the minds here are far from it. I want to run for mayor and change this town into a place where we can grow the next generation of geniuses!"

She proceeds to explain how she would do so by putting the money into schools and bulding a university. She then proceeds to talk about the possibilities of diamonds in the coal vein as she shows off her collection of diamond jewelry.

Townsfolk are against the idea and show a dislike towards her. Most say she always tries some get rich quick scheme and claim its for the good of the people.

"Just last week she was goin' on and on about the concept of digital stocks with... what was it called? Cryptic currency? She's been investing in all that and is tryin' to get us in on it too, callin' it the future of money."

Despite the backlash, [REDACTED] went through with the plan and hired local men and a nearby mining company to excavate for her. Those who we know are on the team are...

[ALL REDACTED] and Tobiah Rodger, who is coming out of retirement from the mining business for his family.

childhood friend! reader who's somehow getting closer with itadori due to them being both bubbly and chatty; this obviously doesn't go unnoticed by megumi.

he can feel the resentment gradually building up within him, but how could he ever dislike itadori? sure, the pink-haired boy tends to steal the attention of his childhood friend (that megumi may or may not secretly harbor feelings for) but hey, could he blame reader for being drawn towards such a passionate and humorous guy?

(winks) i'm leaving you to decide which direction this scenario should go hehe

n. i can promise you that i understand very well which direction to write this, nonnie (winks aggressively). hope this serves justice for your req <3

fushiguro megumi had always been reserved.

a man who preferred the company of his thoughts to the noise of the world. he had grown accustomed to solitude, finding solace in the quiet corners of his mind where he could retreat from the chaos of the outside world.

but then you came along, a beam of light in his otherwise bleak life. you were his childhood friend, the only one who had managed to break the walls he had put around the core of his being. and as he saw you grow closer to itadori yuuji, a friend of both of you, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease creeping into his soul.

as you walked into the bustling classroom, your eyes immediately found their way to itadori’s infectious smile. he was chatting animatedly with you, his laughter filling the room like a burst of sunshine. you’ve been drawn to his magnetic personality, his energy infectious and his jokes never failing to bring a smile to your face.

fushiguro megumi, your childhood friend, stood off to the side, expression unreadable as he observed the interaction between you and itadori. there was a tightness in his chest, a pang of jealousy that he couldn't quite shake off. he had always been reserved, quiet, but seeing you gravitate towards someone else, someone so different from him, it stirred up a whirlwind of conflicting emotions within him.

you realized that as the days went by, you were spending an increasing amount of time with itadori because of his carefree nature and enthusiasm for life. you found yourself having fewer and fewer talks with megumi; his presence receding as itadori's charm dominated your days.

however, megumi always had a bad taste in his mouth whenever he saw you laughing with itadori. he was unable to ignore the bitterness that was boiling under the surface and the sense that someone so affectionately pleasant had taken his place. on the other hand, how could he blame you? how could he hold it against you for being drawn to someone who lit up the room with his mere presence?

one day, while you sat with itadori during lunch, megumi couldn't help but overhear snippets of your conversation. his heart clenched painfully as he heard you laugh, your voice mingling with itadori's in a way that felt like a stab to his chest. he turned away, the turmoil within him threatening to consume him whole.

later that afternoon, the man found himself alone with you for the first time in what felt like ages. the air between you was heavy with unspoken tension, a distance that seemed to grow with each passing moment.

"hey, megs," you started, breaking the silence with a hesitant smile. "i feel like we haven't talked in forever. you okay?"

his throat tightened at the concern in your voice, the guilt gnawing at him as he struggled to find the right words. "i'm fine," he muttered, his gaze flinching away from yours.

you weren't persuaded, though. "are you sure?" you pressed, your eyes searching his for any signs.

megumi swallowed hard, his chest tightening with a mixture of longing and frustration. "i just.. i miss us, you know?”

“i miss how things used to be."

your expression softened, a pang of guilt tugging at your heartstrings. "i miss that too, megumi," you admitted, reaching out to gently grasp his hand. "but things change. people change. it doesn't mean we can't still be friends, right?”

friends, he heard it right.

his heart ached at your words, the realization hitting him like a ton of bricks. “yeah, friends..” you were slipping away, drifting further and further out of reach, and there was nothing he could do to stop it.

just when the heaviness of the stillness weighed heavily on you and megumi, there came a voice from across the hallway.

"hey, [name]! come check this out!"

itadori's cheerful voice pierced through the tension, and you turned towards him with a bright smile, leaving megumi standing alone in the echoing hallway. “yuuji’s calling me. later!”

megumi watched as you pulled your hand away and hurried off to join itadori, his heart sinking as the distance between you grew wider with each step you took. already on a first-name basis? it took megumi and you some years to get used to addressing each other by your first names, but just a couple months with itadori?

thus, it was in that moment, with the sound of your laughter fading into the distance, that he realized just how much he had lost.

a sense of resignation settled over him, the bitterness in his heart mingling with a profound sadness. he had always known that he could never compete with someone like itadori, someone who effortlessly captured the attention and affection of those around him.

as he stood there, alone in the empty corridor, megumi couldn't help but wonder if this was the beginning of the end. if perhaps, despite his silent protests and unspoken desires, he had already lost you for good.

because fushiguro megumi had always been reserved.

and there’s nothing he could do about it.

[chimckenns]

I really appreciate how Redacted navigates the whole listener part of the audios

I started out in the Japanese asmr rp community and listened to those for a few years before listening to English stuff and finding Redcated. (Which is a whole nother thing - it’s very interesting how the English and Japanese rps do things differently but anyway)

So many rps try to form a story/dialogue by basically repeating what the listener “said”.

For example:

“Hmm? You were running late so you forgot to text me? Aw no worries, hun!”

“What’s up? You’re going to the shop to grab some chocolate? Ok.”

(In reality this conversation (minus the listener’s lines) will sound like: “What’s up? Oh, ok.”)

It works for the story, but takes away a lot of the immersion/real-ness imo. There’s the illusion of self-insert but in reality your response is already predetermined and stated explicitly. This sorta thing takes me out and I don’t really like listening to those.

Now redacted does this wonderful thing where he truly leaves it blank like a normal everyday conversation. He relies strictly on context AND THIS IS SO HARD TO DO WELL and I can’t stress this enough!!!

Example:

“Really! Right now? Well yeah, I’d love to see it. Have you been practicing for a while? Okay.”

(Context: Lovely wanting to show Vincent their powers they’ve been practicing)

This sounds natural and realistic. I love it. I have no idea exactly what words are said, and I can make it up myself.

But some asmr rps may do the same situation differently - smth like “You wanna show me your powers? Really? Right now? “Would you like to see it”, well yeah I’d love to see it! Have you been practicing for a while? A few hours, huh. You wanna show me here? Okay.”

The answers the listener gives are all predetermined.

“Good morning, Angel. Hi. [chuckle] Mmhmm. No, we don’t have to get out of bed quite yet.”

Might turn into

“Good morning, Angel. Hi. [chuckle] What time is it? - It’s quite early. Mmhmm. Do we need to get out of bed you ask? No, we don’t have to quite yet”

It’s a few small changes but irl you wouldn’t really hold a conversation like that.

Imagine adding the listener’s lines to the script too

Using my Vincent example:

L: I wanna show you my powers

V: you wanna show me your powers?

L: Yes!

V: Really?

L: Can I do it now?

V: Right now?

L: Would you like to see it?

V: “Would you like to see it?”, well yeah I’d love to see it! Have you been practicing for a while?

L: Yeah, a few hours

V: A few hours huh.

L: Can I show you here?

V: You wanna show me here? Okay

It drags on lol.

I found that there’s also an opposite version where some rps end up making what the listener said too vague, and it’s just confusing to listen to. And the other times it feels like I’m having the words forcefully pulled out of my mouth even though they don’t do the whole repeat what the listener said method?

It’s hard to find the balance.

…well that’s another long ass appreciation post XD

Thanks for sticking to the end if you read it all <3
