22nd Confession [Action/Voice]

[not_a_bluesbro]

[For the past two nights, Wolfwood'd been dreaming some pretty odd things. The first night consisted of... giant robot spiders... and-Vash, what the hell are you doing in his dreams? And why are we storming a place full of bandits? And his sister, he dreamed of her as well... He's never had such vivid images pass his vision before. Not just vivid,

[ action ] ...oh yeah, this one should probably pop up idek

[ Smellerbee doesn't put much into dreams, really, because they're no big deal as far as she's concerned. People have bad ones, people have good ones, half the time she doesn't even remember them.

But she remembers these (fire and the dark and painting her face and the same armor she woke up next to a few days ago, it doesn't even make any sense). She joined however many other villagers in spending half the night painfully aware of just how well she could remember them. And the risk of repeating some of the things included in that just isn't worth trying to fall asleep again before the night's out.

So beautiful morning we have here today, Dad.

Whenever it is that she drags herself out of her room, her mood will probably reflect as much. :| ]

Re: [ action ] s-so. many. tags.

[Yeah, dad's good at catching that. He casually motions her over, having a plate of breakfast sitting at the table. With an offer of coffee. Hey, like it or not, it'd keep you up longer.]

How bad have they gotten?

[ action ] I think that I need to start writing my will x_x

[notaboy_gtfo]

[ Coffee, yes. It's nasty as hell, but she knows what it's around for. Breakfast, eh. Maybe in a minute. For now it makes for awesome vacant-staring and poking at. ]

Not better.

[ Details are for people who are awake and generally okay with being vulnerable. ] How about yours?

Re: [ action ] 3:^| /grabs the pen

[not_a_bluesbro]

.... Not better.

[He shakes his head with a sigh, sitting down with the same sort of thoughtless thoughtfulness she'd employed. It was hard to keep thinking when it was all you were doing for two nights and two groggy mornings.]

[ action ]

[notaboy_gtfo]

[ Yeah, thought so. She leans forward and rests her chin on her hand. ]

Some luck.

[ ...hnn, she'll have to check on Longshot and Jet today. Just to make sure of a couple of things. ]

Re: [ action ]

[not_a_bluesbro]

Tell me about it. [But don't really. He glances up at her, studying her posture.] ... 'Bee, was anyone from our family in your dreams, by any chance?

[ action ]

[notaboy_gtfo]

[ From the family...? It'll take her a minute to pick through the things she's actually willing to pick through, but she'll get around to it eventually. ]

... Katara and Sokka, I think. [ Her attention wasn't exactly on them too often, but they're not tough to recognize, really. ]

Re: [ action ]

[not_a_bluesbro]

[Hmmm... he sees. He doesn't say much beyond a quiet mmm, though, drinking his coffee.]

... Have some of the dreams been a little disturbing?

[Well, actually, he knows they are. But the real question is hidden in there: 'should I ask what you've been dreaming?']

[ action ]

[notaboy_gtfo]

A little.

[ A lot. The fact that they seem so real and make such little sense is what really makes it scary. ]

Re: [ action ]

[not_a_bluesbro]

[A sigh.] It's just the usual annoying shift; I won't tell you not to let it get to you, but just remember they're just dreams. [Even if he feels like something is telling him differently. Even if he feels like there's more to this than they can really know. Even if it feels like those dreams are beyond vivid, unlike all the other ones...]

[ action ]

[notaboy_gtfo]

Yeah, I know. [ But does anyone, really. They're the kind that you feel like you won't forget for the rest of your life- like they should mean something.

But maybe that's just stupid. ]
