Dream 01 ❀ "Wishing you were somehow here again"

[purethingsonly]

Effects: A sense of longing and hopelessness that turns to a bit of anxiousness and excitement with a few moments of an unsure feeling.

[There's an odd scent in the air. Burning incense. Not a normal scent to burn either. What is it? You might not want to know. But there is a girl lighting candles in a dim little basement of a room with a hopeful

[The majority of the dream hadn't bothered him so much as who she spoke of, and seeing as there could only be one Vincent she could possibly be speaking of]

...Ada?

Why would you want to see Vincent again?

[purethingsonly]

[Oh. Um... that is a good question, isn't it? Ahaha...ha... Well...]

I... he... we...

[She fidgets a great deal.]

Oz... you don't hate the Nightray family like father does, do you?

[Maybe she can trust him, if no one else. Maybe...]

[substrictus]

Huh? Of course I don't~

Why else do you think I have Gil as my servant~?

[Spoken so easily without hesitation~]

[Video]

[purethingsonly]

[That might be just what she needs to find the confidence necessary to tell Oz the truth.]

Then...

[Even so, it doesn't stop the fidgeting entirely.]

You see... Vincent is... you could say he is... my lover...

[snapekillsedgar]

[He's staring... And staring... and...........

What. The. Hell. He couldn't even begin to voice just how wrong the whole dream seemed right from the start. First of all, was that one of the basements at Latowidge?! Some prefect she was! Incense and candles were both forbidden on the school grounds! Second--- He couldn't even---]

Why were you thinking about Vincent?!

[purethingsonly]

[Oh dear. And now Elliot had to ask questions as well and he... would not take it so well, even if they had been getting along a little better.

This... might just ruin that a little. Because for the life of her, while she pauses to try and think of some manner of excuse, it simply doesn't work. Ada can't think of anything that someone as intelligent as Elliot would believe.]

...because...he's someone important to me.

[She fidgets, wondering how he will take this.]

[snapekillsedgar]

[Hearing that just was even more incomprehensible!]

Do you even know him?! I mean... Really know him?!

[If they had been talking he would have heard about it for certain! No matter what, if anyone had seen him the gossip would never have ended! A Nightray fraternizing with one of the Vessalius family?! ... Maybe Ada was just fantasizing, but if that was the case... What the hell was he supposed to do?!]

[purethingsonly]

[Ada nods vehemently.]

Of course I do! I--

[They were lovers, so to have someone ask if she knew him was somewhat insulting. But then again... she had to remind herself that if it had not been for this place, the truth of that matter would probably have never seen the light of day.]

...It's nothing official.

[Though she doubts that would make it any better in Elliot's eyes. And after they had finally started getting along... she truly didn't want that ridiculous family nonsense ruining it, but... then... that was up to Elliot, whether or not he let her name and association negate everything else up to this point.]

[Oh, Noel knows about Ada's love life, but is unaware of how much a creeper Vincent actually was. So she'll be focusing on all those occult-related things and react in the only way someone as weak of heart as she is could:

SCREAM.]

[purethingsonly]

[Oh no... she had feared this sort of reaction - that's why she had kept it hidden for so many years. Ada feared to be judged and hated by those who she cared about the most. So now, of course there was a lump in her throat, painfully lodged there as she tried to speak - tried to think of a way to describe or explain, but really... how could she? It was exactly as it seemed.]

Ah... I'm very sorry you had to see that...

[unsureazure]

[Oh... Noel felt terrible once she saw the expression on Ada's face. She had to clear this matter up.]

Ah... No, no, you don't need to apologize, Miss Ada. It was just... really unexpected a-and I get scared easily. If there's anyone who should be sorry, it's me.

[She tries to give a reassuring smile.]

You're free to like what you like. I-I mean... That doesn't change who you are. I, um... I still want to be friends with with you. If that's okay.

[purethingsonly]

[It's some time before she feels ease, however... the more she listens to more it seems that everything will still be alright.]

Oh no! You don't need to apologize! I do realize that it's a bit... strange.

[But she smiles.]

I'm glad that you still want to be friends.

[lovesviolence]

[ ...

Well at least she's not even bothered. ]

You, performing summoning ritual? Reason, odd. If ability is true, going back, best idea. Happy end, happy end.

[purethingsonly]

[...this girl's words seem... awkward. Or perhaps simply a little jumbled up. Even so, they don't seem judgmental. In fact, they seem to be attempting to cheer her up. At least... they seem positive.]

Well... I've thought about it. It's just... there's somebody I want to see again.

[lovesviolence]

[ She wasn't judging at all, just curious. Her awkward speech is by choice as she has always spoken like this.

After a few moments of silent thinking she answers. ]

Why not attempt going home. Logical execution.

[purethingsonly]

Well I could but... there are also a lot of people here that I care about.

[Ada doesn't mind explaining like this.]

[disruptstatice]

[Well...

As interesting as the whole thing with Vincent could be, Leo is far more interested in everything else. After all, such knowledge is, to him, more interesting than whatever personal business anyone has. It's hardly something he should ask about, anyway.

But the rest...]

Miss Ada? What were you doing?

[He's inviting you to ramble all you want, Ada. Grab the chance.]

You never seemed the type...

[purethingsonly]

[And now Leo too...]

Oh! Ah...

[There was no point in trying to fool him, was there? Even if he didn't know much, she was sure he was smart enough to figure out what sort of thing it was that she had been attempting to do.]

I suppose I don't. [She laughs a bit, eyes downcast.] But then... I suppose that's why no one would have ever guessed. [And why it had been a secret all this time. At least... until now.]

[disruptstatice]

[Shrug. If you think he's judging, he's really not.]

So? What was it?

[He's honestly curious.]

[purethingsonly]

It was... just a... summoning ritual.
