I've become so numb || dream 05
Warnings: Spoilers for Persona 4? And tl;dr.
Effects: (optional) A feeling of emptiness and being numb.
There's caution tape lining the walls and stretching across the doorway. Posters cover the rare parts of blank space; a beautiful woman smiles, though it remains unseen thanks to a thick heavy scribble blocking out her mouth. Words litter the floor, ceiling and chipping paint along the walls-- words like 'cheat', 'liar', 'fake', 'creep', 'psycho', 'pervert'-- but those words were all hard to read. One would have to squint to see them all; the most common word in that entire room remained the word 'CAUTION'. The bright yellow took most of the attention away from the other aspects of the dream, the dark and dingy room covered in dust and dirt.
The strangest thing was the noose that lies within the room; it held several little dolls. Each one was as big as Adachi's hand, and they were all decorated differently. The first one had silver hair and black glasses-- his expression was calm and stoic, wearing a school uniform whilst holding a katana. The second had brown hair which flicked out at the end, a pair of bright orange headphones around its neck. He wore the same uniform as the first doll, but he held two kunai in his hands instead of a katana. The third was a girl- she was slightly shorter than the others, her green jacket standing out amongst the black. It had several tiny pins and her hair was just to the back of her neck. She held no weapon, but she wore tough-looking shoes with armored shins. The fourth was another girl, she wore red and her hair traveled down the length of her back. She held a fan as a weapon, though she currently used it to shield part of her face. Yet another girl sat behind the first two, and she too wore a uniform. Her hair was in bunches and she had a cheeky smile, a strange satellite dish in her hands. A boy was next to her; he looked tough and had his blond hair slicked back. He wore his uniform lazily, a large skull printed on his t-shirt and in his hands he held a metal desk. There were just two left now, a short haired someone wearing a cap and uniform much like the boys holding a gun and a strange creature that looked like a bear with sharp claws on its right hand.
Adachi did nothing but lie on his back in this dream, his arms behind his head as his eyes stared at the dolls held within the piece of rope. There was a fog sliding across the room, it seemed dangerous and ominous. Soon, shadows appeared-- small ones, some might even say they were cute. One settled on the bed and crawled under Adachi's leg, allowing him to use it as a foot stall.

And then he woke up, his hair messier than usual and his eyes slow to peer around him at the dark room he found himself in. With a dull curse word, he let himself collapse back onto the pillow, where he intended to sleep some more. It was still dark, after all.
