Dreaming the First
Warnings: TAUNTINGS and DISNEY under the cut!
Dream Effects: Shocked surprise at first, fading to tenderness- and then a precipitous fall into miserable despair, gradually hardening to bitter determination
Note: While this is no happy dream, it's also not a Moon Cycle nightmare; no illness shall be forthcoming.

It's all right, I managed to rescue her- despite all that wicked person did to try stopping me. She won't be bothering anyone ever again, milady.
[He didn't want to be specific about WHAT kind of person she was, not to the little fairy child. No reason for her to feel guilt by association, right?]

I'm in her home right now, milady. I managed to find her but hours after I arrived in this place, and do you know?
You're part of the reason I was able to find her! [BIG cheerful smile is go, now.]

As to adjustment... Well, it certainly is a very strange place, and it takes time to learn how to deal with that strangeness. But there certainly are hot showers compensations.

Do you know, I don't believe you did? I'd like to think I would have remembered something like that... but then, the course of study was what I could do with the Dreamberry, and not what the Dreamberry could do to me.
[His fault for not asking, he supposes.] There are worse ways to find out, I suppose- but since you're here and apparently the knowledgeable one, are there any other effects this device has on its bearer?

[Kind words aside, his face changed a little at her next comment. It's that much of an issue, is it? Then, he'd best find out the rest of what he hadn't been told...]
Although if you wanted to tell me what these other three 'big things' of this place are, I'd be more than willing to learn.

Still, have a reassuring smile; he may not be there next to you, Alice, but he's still right here for you.] They sound most formidable... but surely someone has at least managed to hurt one before?
[Because let's face it, a guy who takes down a magical dragon-fairy doesn't have any truck with the term 'undefeatable.']

H-Hurt maybe, but no one has ever stopped them from hurting people.

No-one's ever so much as driven them back? They sound almost impossibly fearsome. [Oh, he's taking this seriously all right; he's got no pretense of being able to handle what others can't in battle.]

I... I don't know... they haven't been around in almost a year but... with the nightmares all coming about... it may only be a matter of time before they come back.

I see...
I'll definitely keep your warning in mind, and try to avoid them if at all possible. Do you have someone to keep you safe from them? [Because if she doesn't, he's offering; surely Aurora and Rapunzel wouldn't mind opening up another room... although he'll have to recalculate his siegey supplies.]
...And what were the other two issues?
