mister sandman, bring me a dream ...

[the9thdream]

[Today, tonight, wherever you are, you find yourself drifting ... in the dark places behind your eyes, there's something very soft ...

You're dreaming. But whose are you seeing?]

((DREAM POST! Feel free to have your own, wander into someone else's, or what-have-you.))

SOMEWHERE...

[fuckyou_chorus]

[You open your eyes-in a dream?- to see a calm summer day. Marcy is waving her tentacles from her silo and the cows are mooing softly in time with the wind. Still, you can't shake a hint of fear that crawls down your neck. You shake your head, determined: this is silly. For camp, this all looks peaceful.

You look down at the lakeshore and notice the bubbles forming around the edge of the lake, and the faint wisps of haze coming off the lake. Something beeps, slightly forlorn, in the distance.

You watch bubbles lazily form at the edge of the lake. In the distance, there’s a faint, forlorn beeping, but the depth of the water muffles it. A good thing, too; it’s peaceful down here, with no distractions but the lapping of water as it moves in slow waves above you.

After a moment, the intensity of the scene fades, slightly, but the chill is still there.]

[this totally feels safe]

[fuckyou_chorus]

[SWIMMING FOR THE SURFACE]

[fuckyou_chorus]

[you're moving in the water: you can see the waves of your movements quite clearly. but you don't seem to be going anywhere. perhaps there's something in the way the water is moving.]

[heightruled]

[looks at how much progress he's made and mentally curses]

[tries to swim horizontally now]

[fuckyou_chorus]

[as you get closer to the edge, you notice that you're getting pushed upwards, slightly.

the edges of the lake are dark, but you can see something crumbling dirt into the edges.]

[heightruled]

[tries to be sneaky and peers SNEAKILY!! at what's crumbling dirt]

[fuckyou_chorus]

[as you peer up, something hits the water, and you go surging upwards, out of the water, once. you catch a glimpse of some very worried cows as you start to sink down again.]
