fourth dream; audio. ✖

[desomnia]

Everyone's dreams were really interesting again. We should be a little thankful to the fae..

[ Yes, Madotsuki is to the point as usual - the effects of being heavily antisocial. Also a little bit on the belated side, but that's probably another side effect of the whole antisocial thing

It was different, this time... I saw nothing that belonged to me.

[Which is a relief, in a way. Though he doesn't dwell on his darkness, it's rather considerable and tends to come up in dreams.]

My dreams? You were in one of mine, weren't you? Do you remember?

[audio]

[desomnia]

They're different each time. ... They change. [ She doesn't mention there was something familiar to her in there though. ]

And.. yes, I remember. It was a long time ago, right..?

[audio]

[trashheap_angel]

I don't like them, though, even if they are changed.

[There's a pause.]

When I had the dream, or when the dream happened?

[audio]

[desomnia]

... Why don't you like them? Don't you think it's very interesting to see all of that?

[ Mostly since nothing can compare to her own horrific dreams, and she doesn't even find those bad. ]

I meant.. when you had the dream. But when the dream happened must have been even longer ago.

[audio]

[trashheap_angel]

...They bring the past back. Sometimes that happens in dreams, but here others can see them too.

[He still harbors a bit of resentment that someone saw his other dream. He'd basically forgotten about it until this second round.]

What is a long time for humans? I don't think it was. Months and years, but not many years. Only enough time for a child to grow up.

[audio]

[desomnia]

I like it when they bring the past back. [ Because, for her, the past are her happy memories, the moments she clings to. ] It's.. nice. It doesn't happen in the real world.

... The time for a child to grow up is still pretty long. [ She's only 13, after all, so it seems like a long time to her. ]

[audio]

[trashheap_angel]

Ah...you do? Are your dreams all good ones?

To humans it may be, but I have watched many generations of humans grow up, or old. That time passes quickly for me.

...most of the time.

[audio]

[desomnia]

I think all my dreams are good dreams. Nice dreams. ... Other people don't always think so, though.

[ She's quiet for a moment. ] Are you that old..?

[audio]

[trashheap_angel]

It's more important if you think so, because they are yours. [...] Are other people in your dreams often?

[He's quiet too, thinking...] My kind don't grow old, but, I have existed a long time.

[audio]

[desomnia]

... No. Not before this place. Before this place it was just me in my dream, and the people who are always in my dream. ... I don't really mind a lot to have new people in it, though..

[audio]

[trashheap_angel]

We are different then. I want to have this place, and this time, not the ones that came before. One day I will have to go back.

[He doesn't sound upset exactly by that. After all, there are things he has to do. Still...]

For me, it is easier to be where I am.

[audio]

[desomnia]

[ Oh, this is a little interesting.. She sounds curious, at least. ]

You want to have this place..? Why?

[audio]

[trashheap_angel]

There is an important friend here. If he came to where I live, it wouldn't be safe.

...also I like this place.

[audio]

[desomnia]

... I understand.

You want to stay here with him, since this place is better for the both of you.. [ she, actually, just wants to go home. ] It must be nice to have someone like that.

[audio]

[trashheap_angel]

Yes, I do want to stay. At least for some time. Perhaps one day I can find his world--that would be safer than where I live.

Do you like it here?

[audio]

[desomnia]

I don't mind it here, but.. I'd like back home more, if I had a choice.

[ Back home, she can dream, after all. Her dreams here are different. ]
