[There's someone else prancing around the village in the midst of night, and his reasons are similar to her's. Dreams, dreams, and more dreams. And tonight's dream felt... twisted.

The dream he had made him feel uneasy, because it was cryptic and he couldn't grasp the concept of what was happening during it. That kind of mixture just adds onto Ragna's already irritable nature, so it just set him off into storming right out of the house in the middle of the night. He needed air.

It was all so... quick. As if it were something set on fast forward. The only things Ragna could make out was a fire, multiple unfamiliar people surrounding him, and then he could have sworn he saw his own--

... Trying to make sense of it was just irritating him more. Goddammit. Ragna was just going to wander his way into the village plaza, looking at his right hand as he tightened it and untightened it -- almost like it was to a rhythm. Then his sights will stumble upon Noel's form sitting on the fountain.

That's always an odd thing to see in the middle of the night. Especially so late into it.] Noel? That you?

[Action] bullet_dance April 26 2011, 12:21:19 UTC

[Her attention goes from the moon to the all-too-familiar voice. She's surprised to see Ragna wandering out here so late... even though she really shouldn't.]

...Ragna? What are you doing out here?

[Action] black_onslaught April 26 2011, 13:02:42 UTC

[Yeah, that's Noel. He moves from his spot so that he can get closer to the fountain, because it's late and he doesn't want to speak any louder than he has to.]

I should be the one asking you that.

[Action] bullet_dance April 26 2011, 13:12:24 UTC

[Okay, well, she doesn't exactly want to share why she's out here. Regardless of who it is. So she'll go with the bare minimum for now.]

W-Why else? I couldn't sleep, so I decided to come out here for a bit to get some fresh air.

[Action] black_onslaught April 27 2011, 04:11:18 UTC

[Why else? He doesn't always come out at night because he can't sleep. But whatever, he won't question that. That's being nitpicky.]

You too? [He's not about to start talking openly about why he can't sleep.] Must be the heat.

[Action] bullet_dance April 27 2011, 04:21:59 UTC

You couldn't sleep, either? [She has a feeling it's... you know, but she can't be sure.] I want to say it's the heat, but...

[...hrm.]

[Action] black_onslaught April 27 2011, 04:38:57 UTC

[He knows that tone. There's something else on her mind that was keeping her up -- most likely the same thing keeping him from sleeping. He takes a seat next to her on the fountain, just staring at the ground as he does.

Ragna knows her too well.] Dreams, right?

[Action] bullet_dance April 27 2011, 04:43:54 UTC

[It's like she can't hide anything from him.]

...yeah. [...] Did you have one, too, Ragna?

[Action] black_onslaught April 27 2011, 05:00:47 UTC

[He's quiet for a moment. He doesn't want to own up to it, but it's a little too late for that. Ragna just sighs, keeping his vision fixated on the ground.]

Yeah. It was a little too intense.

[Action] bullet_dance April 27 2011, 05:05:27 UTC

[And from the looks of it, he even seemed to be bothered by it, too. Just how intense are we talking? Then again, so was her own...]

Really? I-- [...well, they're on the subject of it now, anyway.] ...so were mine, a little.

[Action] black_onslaught April 27 2011, 05:08:23 UTC

[He finds his gaze concentrating on his right hand again, which just leads to him lifting it up a bit to stare at his palm. It truly felt like his arm was ripped off in that dream, even if it was only for a moment.]

Either it's one big coincidence, or a Shift is messing with us again.

[Action] bullet_dance April 27 2011, 05:13:11 UTC

[Her eyes follow his gaze, meeting his hand. Just what could he be thinking?]

First the teleporting, then these dreams, and now there's monsters roaming around. [...] You don't think this is all leading up to something big, do you...?

[Action] black_onslaught April 27 2011, 05:23:44 UTC

[He figured the monsters had nothing to do with a shift, but now that she mentions it, it is a little odd.]

No idea. Why, you think so?

[Action] bullet_dance April 27 2011, 05:27:48 UTC

[You've never seen anything like those before, have you?]

I don't know... a-and it worries me. I can't remember there ever being so many incidents so suddenly.

[Action] black_onslaught April 27 2011, 05:32:46 UTC

[Not at all.

He's silent for a moment, considering what to say. It's almost like an eerie silence.] If you think about things like that, you're gonna be worrying about way too much. [Aren't the dreams enough.]

[Action] bullet_dance April 27 2011, 05:36:26 UTC

I can't help it. The Shifts are usually once a month, but this is three times in a week. What if something really bad happens?

[Would it hurt her family? Her friends? Shikamaru? You? Sure, maybe the dreams are affecting her mood, but damn it all.]
