[ Juudai, for once, doesn't have his Hitomi on him; it's lying off to one side of the small mattress he's currently occupying. Juudai is in fact asleep right now - or just was, anyway, because the sound of voices has begun to trickle into his awareness from the other side of the room, and he rolls over, only half-awake, hand already moving in the direction of his deck, which is a few feet away on the floor.
[In a very lemming-like motion, all eight heads on the other side of the room turn in Juudai's direction when he starts stirring. Johan speaks quietly across the gap after a moment.]
[Alice honestly doesn't understand half of that dream. Because in her world, she'd yet to meet a ghost, but the monsters were very much on the real side.
But there were hunters and prey and in the course of time, she'd gone from prey to the hunter constantly hunted. So that part - that she thinks she understands.
And all that pain and anger and confusion - that part she understands all too well.
So here, have a long button up wearing Alice sitting on the countertop in the kitchen, quiet as can be otherwise that stupid seaweed head will wake up, eating an apple, softly illiminated by the fire in the stove.]
[He smiles for a moment, but then the smile sort of falters, and eventually drops away.]
...No, he died. It wasn't me, though. It was the spirits' way of returning what he did to them. I can't even call it "getting even"... it's nothing compared to his crimes.
But wait, how'd you know...?
[He's unaware of the dream being broadcasted yet... oh boy.]
[He doesn't look particularly thrilled at the idea. It's a weirdly invasive concept.]
...Guess that must be the drawback of this Hitomi thing, huh? A really big drawback... dreams are too personal to be showing to everyone else like that.
And, "apparently"? Does that mean you haven't seen it happen yet?

No, s'okay. [ He murmurs this, sits up and crosses his feet underneath him. ] Something going on?

...did you die, then? Or did you kill him?

Didn't anyone tell you? No? Well then, let me! These things show dreams and if someone is touching it while they watch, then they even feel it.
[A pause and a shrug.]
All of it, from what I can tell so... anyone can see it. Besides, apparently people just don't stay dead here, so that was a valid question!
[Another, shorter pause, then...]
I don't understand most of it anyways.
