[Ryu finally bolts awake, and looks distressed.] Nina!

[Looks around, and realizes he was sleeping.] It felt so real... augh! [Clutches his shoulder, and takes a deep breath.]

[He stands, and goes to the bathroom, looking at his shoulder in the mirror.] How did I get that?...

[Pulls down his shirt collar to show Matt.] This bruise.

[...?]

--What bruise? There's nothing there.

... You don't see it?

[Pulls off his shirt and points to his shoulder.] Right there. It hurts, a lot.

Can't say I do.

[actually lifts his goggles off for a moment and takes a second look at the spot anyway, but...] ...Not a thing. You sure you really see something there?

... Yeah, you can't see it? It's a huge bruise... it's... cold, but it burns. Like if you hold ice for too long.

...I think you might've been asleep a little too long, pal. Because I don't see any bruise of any kind.

... You're sure? That's... weird.

You're telling me. [pauses] Where would you have gotten a bruise like that anyway? Far as I could tell, you've been asleep the whole time.

It was hurting in the dream, too. And I'm sure I didn't have it yesterday...

The dream?

Yeah... I had this weird dream about a mansion in the snow.

I'm guessing you've never had a dream like that before, then. I heard this city has a tendency to be pretty weird, too; think it has anything to do with it?

2yoraedragon July 21 2008, 02:49:20 UTC
No, I haven't. But... maybe. I hope it's just something that the city is doing, because it'd be temporary, right?

[shrugs] I'd hope so. I know I wouldn't want creepy dreams and bruises that only I could see to stick around. Has there been stuff that never went away before?

The only things I can think of that didn't go away were... the markings, and, so far, that child who stole my dragon powers.
