Dream's Office Hours, 3/22

Mar 22, 2006 12:29

The professor is in. He appears to be modifying a map that looks very old, and isn't written in a human alphabet.

[OOC: Heading home to deal with family stuff. On SP at least some of the time until 4, gone from then until 8 or 9, and then back with a vengeance.]

"Okay, but, see, I had this dream," Angel said. "When I was sick. About this hotel I used to live in, and all this death that happened there, and about there being life in it again and... I dunno. Maybe it's related?"

"It may be," Dream agreed. "So many things end up back in the Dreaming."

"What makes you think your response to this person is related to this dream?"

"But he is here," Dream said, pointing to the spot where Logan stood, back to the wall, face neutral. "You know why."

"No," Angel said, sharply. He mounted the staircase to the second floor, taking the steps two at a time. He still didn't look in Logan's direction. "He doesn't belong here!"

In a flash, Dream was at the top of the stairs. "But he is here," Dream insisted.

He glared. "If you wish my opinion? This dream, and Logan in it, exist because you fear and desire the same things now that you feared and desired then. They will not leave you."

"This is, of course, not your greatest fear," he said. Behind him flickered a suggestion of Angel's nightmare from the detention in the fall; the wrath of a just God.

Angel fell back a step. He shook his head.

"No. None of that is true. None of it!"

Dream raised a hand, and the hotel lobby fell away, leaving Dream and Angel back by the banks of the pond. Only flickers of the dream remained "Very well, none of it is true," he said. "But all of it is, as well. My realm is made of stories, not lies."

He held out his hand. "Come. We should go back to Fandom."

Angel hesitated. Even though the landscape had changed, he looked in the direction Logan had been standing in.

He wasn't there.

Angel reached out for Dream's hand without a word.

An instant later, they were back in Dream's office. Dream had an odd smile on his face. "Did that help with your problem?" he asked quietly.

notstakedyet March 23 2006, 05:01:43 UTC

Angel looked discomforted.

"It, um, answered some questions, yeah."

game_of_you March 23 2006, 05:09:19 UTC

"A success, then," Dream said.

"Let me know if I can provide other assistance."

notstakedyet March 23 2006, 05:12:13 UTC

"Um, yeah," Angel said. He didn't make eyecontact as he gathered his things and left. "I'll do that. Thanks."

game_of_you March 23 2006, 05:15:52 UTC

"Farewell," Angel says, then turns back to his map.
