🖤 all clip links should link to google drive. these do not like to work on mobile.
🖤 [ name ] means the name has not been said in the memory. once the parenthesis is gone their name has been said. until then it's the first time they've seen something they won't know their name
🖤 Watching the clips is the best option, but I am updating to a written format which should give all needed information.
🖤 Every memory will have at minimum a hint of hearing/feeling others near him telepathically and will be elaborated on if it's more intense.
🖤 Unless otherwise talked about, please assume his name is blurred out of memories! Most of the time it is ANYWAY so if it isn't it's blurred out with just calling him Teen because that's funny.
🖤 AU Memories can be found here.

summary: billy wakes up in william's body after he dies. he doesn't remember anything more than tommy's name. but his parents worry and they're good people, so he tries to be what they need.
links: This one is probably easier to just watch | It does include the aftermaths of a car crash (death), and body dysmorphia
The first 13 seconds are for visual/viewer contexts. At that point William is dead.
-> He's younger, 13 (joe does not look 13, sorry joe)
-> Starts with coming back to life. He does get to hear the phrase, "Good night, Tommy," "Good night, Billy" in the seconds he comes back. The first word he gasps is Tommy's name.
-> When asked his name and where he is, he's unable to answer. He doesn't know who's around him.
-> When he looks into the mirror there's an immediate mental realization: This is not my body. He's scared.
-> In the hospital he seems lost and confused. For a glance the name "KAPLAN, WILLIAM" is shown on a patient bracelet.
-> His parents visit and try to be normal, his dad makes a joke. Both parents mentally get annoyed at each other, Billy hears it and tries to respond asking them not to fight. This confuses them, because they're not fighting.
-> They say that physically everything is fine, but the amnesia probably needs time to go away.
-> They say he can go home tomorrow and he's a little uncertain.
-> The next day they go home and the Kaplans are doing their best to make him feel at home, but the family dog barks at him and he's scared/lost and so similarly: Their mental thoughts are worry for their son, if the amnesia will ever go away, will he ever be the same, how can they help, they just want their son back. It gets louder and louder and overwhelms Billy who shouts at them to stop worrying.
-> He apologizes immediately and tries to smooth things out, asking to do things like see his room (his mother thought that it might help, she's confused when he says he should) and offer to make dinner.
-> In his room it's stilll... once again wholly unfamiliar. When he looks in the mirror he sees the wrong person. He tries to convince himself over and over again: I'm William Kaplan. In that moment, he decides that whoever else he was - it didn't matter. Who he needed to be was William Kaplan for the good, loving parents who just lost their son.
