[43] Hatake Kakashi {Dream}

[freshscars]

The room is dark, only the light of the moon and flashes of lightning illuminating the room through the old-fashioned paper doors leading outside. The sound of rain pounding on the roof and the ragged, dry sobs of a child are all that can be heard. Pressed up against the wall is the source of the breathing, Kakashi at eight years old, sans mask

[A dream like that... Yamato frowns to himself, then slips out of his room. Kakashi doesn't need to be alone after a horror like that.

He makes his way quietly to Kakashi's door, then taps on it lightly, offering a little flicker of chakra along with the tap so that Kakashi will know who's there. His choice whether he wants company or not, of course, but Yamato is worried...]

[Kakashi scrubs at his eyes after the rude awakening the dream forced on him, like he does every time he has that dream.

He is still unaware that the dream's been shown to everyone caring to look at their Faciliberry, so the knock at the door and Yamato's familiar chakra both startles and confuses him.

He takes a moment to pull on his mask and headband, then walks over to unlock and open the door.]

Did something happen?

[Oh. Oh hell, Kakashi's not even aware? The last thing Yamato wants is to be the bearer of bad news, but it would not be kind to hide it from Kakashi.]

It... what you were dreaming...

[How do you break to someone that a recurrent nightmare of theirs just got placed where nearly two hundred people can see it?]

[Kakashi's eye widens. How would Yamato know about that...? He hadn't yelled in his sleep since before his Sensei had died, and even if he had one of his suitemates would be pounding down his door far before Yamato heard him and came--]

What do you mean?

We should talk.

[freshscars]

You know where my room is.

[obitastic]

I have tea. Can you get hot water?

[text]

[freshscars]

It won't be boiling if it's from the bathroom and I have nothing but plastic water bottles to heat it in. Fire jutsu are out unless you can find another container.

[disco_isnt_dead]

...oh, darling...

A few hours and possible snuggles later...

[freshscars]

This experiment is going to get very annoying.

[There be no angst here. Really!]

:< Kashi, you liar...

[disco_isnt_dead]

Would you like me to take another dive into your subconscious, Kakashi? It's possibly that I did not get to finish sorting baggage...

Let alone dust for cobwebs...

He's not lying... >> Really! ....why don't you believe hiiiim.

[freshscars]

I'm fine. It's nothing I can't handle.

[It's therapy enough seeing everyone alive. That's his excuse and he's sticking to it.]

[nihonjika]

[Observing quietly in that manly way he and Kakashi do.]

[freshscars]

[Observing right back. ...Okay he's mostly just relieved to see Shikamaru there and alive.]
