[whether or not it was a good or bad thing that Tamaki couldn't see her dream at the moment was questionable.

because at that moment, a little bit before the end of her dream, he suddenly woke up with arms held tight around him.

...a little too tight.

it only took him a second to realize who it was and good lord did she always have such a strong grip!? what was she dreaming...!?]

Haruhi...let...let go...I can't...

[this probably hadn't helped her dream any.]

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

[she wakes slowly out of her dream, struggling to come back to reality and only gradually coming to separate the dream from waking. when she finally does come to, however, she quickly lets go of him despite the huge wave of relief one has at realising bad things in a dream haven't really happened at all.]

Ah--sorry!!

[ action ]

[spectaculaire]

[and he finally get let himself relax as he takes in a large breath.

after that, he looked at her, the concern clear in his face.]

Did you have a bad dream?

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

I guess it was, a bit.

[she's pleased to find she can speak at a normal level]

But as usual, it was only a dream.

[ action ]

[spectaculaire]

[he's kind of curious, but he just shifts just a little closer to her, a teasing little smile playing on his lips.]

Mmm, now I'm wondering what kind of dream it was to make you hug me so tight~ It was about me, wasn't it~?

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

Don't always assume things are about you. [lowering her gaze though and subtly shifting a little closer too]

[ action ]

[spectaculaire]

My dreams are always about you, though.

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

They can't always be about me.

[a pause, and then:]

You were in the dream, though.

[ action ]

[spectaculaire]

I don't see why not~ [still teasing, but at her pause and slight change of expression, he looks at her.]

I was?

[his tone had changed from his original light teasing back to something closer to concern.]

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

[even after so much time she's not used to talking about stuff like this, choosing to just keep it to herself, but there's a part of her that suddenly wants to open up about it like she does when it storms. so even though it feels stupid in some ways-]

It was because of the flood, I think. As though it had gone on so long, and we'd never found safe ground.

[ action ]

[spectaculaire]

And what happened?

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

There were a lot of people around us, and they had to have been dead. [her voice and face are calm, though she's looking down, staying close] We were floating, too... There was a boat looking for anyone who might still be alive, but they couldn't see us. I tried to yell, but I could barely speak, and I tried to tell you to get up, but you weren't moving.

And the people on the boat found me to save me, but they had to leave you behind because I think you were already...

[trailing off, getting a hold of herself]

Well, it wasn't real, but that was it.

[ action ]

[spectaculaire]

[he listened silently. that...well that really did sound rather depressing and he could see how she would feel the way that she did.

once she finished, he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close to him.]

Hopefully you won't have to any dreams like that again anytime soon. [or ever.]

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

[she lies still, resting her head against him]

When I wake up, I know it's fine, and you were here to reassure that. These dreams are just getting a little irritating, I guess.

[ action ]

[spectaculaire]

[a small laugh.]

Yeah, they've been rather dark these past few days. It's probably because of the world, though, so you shouldn't have to worry too much about them.

[ action ]

[ootorospring]

I know. I just don't want to ever see that really happen.
