OOC: Memory the second (Sensation and Sight)
After a long day of guarding and patrolling, Blood got herself all settled in nice and comfy on her favorite stuffed animal. Reaching over to her candy stash, she began to happily stuff her face as she pondered her day. Stretching her arm out for another handful, her fingers wrapped around something odd.
That didn't feel like candy, her brain registered the thought before her world seemed to shift and she was suddenly in motion. Running, her small body seemingly suspended in mid-air as her fingers gripped something to keep her stable. Her view widened and she saw herself suspended from the back part of the shoulder of an incredibly large man with bells in his spiked hair. A familiar feeling of power was streaming from him, surrounding her and making her feel safe and secure. She knew, instinctively, that this man was someone she trusted and loved deeply.
She could feel the cloth of a haori beneath her fingers, clinging with all her strength to the back of someone who felt incredibly familiar. When he stopped, she knew something interesting was about to occur. The body beneath her fingers vibrated with the type of sensation caused by someone speaking, and although she couldn't hear the words she was certain they were important. As she held on she was aware of her little body moving, arms pushing herself up and over the shoulder of the man she was holding onto and landing on the shoulder of someone much shorter.
She could see herself perched there, looking around with one hand shading her eyes as she tried to see who her friend, the giant from her dreams, was speaking with. The shoulder beneath her wobbled and she glanced down into the face of the man she knew as Toushi. Her body quaked with happy giggles as she easily jumped down, landing before her giant and saying something that the giant apparently found boring. There was an undercurrent of challenge in the air, and she knew what it meant. The giant wanted to play, and she would get to watch.
As the image faded from her mind, Blood's hand raised automatically to her mouth. She happily prepared to bite down on tasty candy, only to find marbles in her mouth. She spat them back into her hand, an angry look on her face as she wiped her mouth only to notice something black on her stuffed bear-bed's head. It was the funny pajamas she was wearing in her vision!
