I was at Uni, walking up the path up a slight rise towards anime club. There were lots of people around me and it was good.
Then my Brother turned up, claiming to be a spy, and some woman, claiming to be is psychiatrist. My Brother was only slightly unhinged, but something felt wrong.
Afterwards there was a confrontation with a new group who wanted to respec the forge for giant wheely bins, despite the fact that others were already using it. That devolved into an argument and I ended up forbidding all violence, and all speaking.
Cue a bunch of disaffected knights, and everybody else. It was getting close to dawn and one of the knights was trying to wake the others, but without speech being possible it was hard. He was saying things and numbers would fall out of his mouth and hit the sleeping person, 3, 3, 4, 5. Eventually the other person did wake up.
And then a woman was standing next to me saying that even if I'd forbidden violence in this zone and it was only 1/2 past 3am here, it was already 1/2 past 5am in the zone just over there (we were at the zone boundary) and violence worked fine there, and she opened up the zone barrier and a horde of animals came barrelling down the slope towards us. I very quickly lifted the restrictions.
I went to chat to the psych about my Brother and she took me to a warehouse and started telling me how his delusion that he was a spy was starting to break down, and that they'd found this place. It was creepy enough. One table had a neatly stacked pile of cervical discs. Human bones hung from the ceiling, all neatly grouped by type: here were some femurs, there were some right arms, still mostly strung together. Up in the corner I caught site of armour subsets, all right arms, with long pointy fingers, with young female arms still in them. Something felt very wrong here. The psych was telling me how they'd found his latest victims and we'd gotten to the end of the warehouse. Body parts were still littered around dangling from the ceiling according to some system, I kept having to brush past them. So many people had died already, and here were 2 more young women. They were encased in the armour I'd glimpsed earlier. It was very feminine armour, the tops of the legs went up rather high leading to a sharp V shape around the pelvis, the fingers were very long and sharp, and it was rather open at the chest, showing off cleavage and neck. The woman on the right looked dead, cut and bloodied, but she was still breathing, just gently, like she was trying to be still. The psych was saying that he'd killed that one last night and found the new one, but I knew this was wrong and started to run. The psych called out and both girls dropped down, grabbed me by my arms, spun me around so I was facing back towards the end of the corridor again, and slammed me down onto the ground, face down. They were fast and strong, and obviously enjoyed their role. They giggled gleefully at what was going to happen to me as the psych picked up a knurled wooden club and beat me between the shoulder blades until I was unconscious.
And then I realised that I wasn't the woman I was seeing held down and beaten mercilessly, I was somebody else and could still run.
I ran
Back at Uni I hid myself in the illusion of being somewhere else and went to find my Brother. People kept getting in my way somehow. This is why I normally didn't go invisible, people didn't know to not bump into you, but why not? ALso there was a strangely shaped person who seemed to be following me, and I got to wondering: if I can hid myself in the illusion of being someone else, can the psych do that also? I got to anime club and found my brother, but got called back to the entrance where a horde of people were baying for blood. I threw up a barrier and worried anime people were hurried inside. I found my Brother and he was a disturbed person, but basically good. Then I heard the psych calling for me. I went back to the barricade. She was telling me that my barricade wouldn't last, that they'd get me eventually, and I was just incensed! I was the person who'd forbade violence and speaking and she thinks I can't maintain a simple barrier?
