Dream ⊗ 011 ⊗ Wasteland

Feb 01, 2009 04:23

[PUBLIC // It just inherently has static and is broken up, so it's like flashes of scenes]

It had been a while since Raven actually had any real sleep, and he was finally able to catch a bit of shut-eye. But as he felt himself drift off, he knew there was something troubling that was nagging his mind...those creatures...fighting against them...

( An old soldier and creative spoilers :O )

battlefield, the great war, !dream, digging into the past, stop hating me somarium, death, getting used to this now, *type: documentary

*her voice sounds a bit tired*

Raven, this... your dream, is it...?

...I'm sorry, I shouldn't be prying.

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 10:52:18 UTC

[he's just as tired, it's okay :\ lets snuggle up then 8D]

Huh? Oh this? It's nothin', just a weird dream.

*Also, teleportation in a world not designed for it is a bit draining D: ... also okay!**

...are you sure it's just a weird dream?

Or is it a memory?

*We totally don't believe you*

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 11:06:27 UTC

[sure? always waiting and willing~

...and this would be a slight pause]

A memory? Would be a pretty bad one if it was.

But nah. S'just a dream, really!

The ancient Vikings believed that there could be no greater end to a man's life than to fall in battle, fighting until his last bitter breath. Men dreamed of dying a glorious and honorable death on the field of war, knowing that they would be taken to the undying lands of Valhalla, where they could test their skills in combat until the end of eternity.

Some say that even now, in our more "refined" era, many true warriors hope for a beautiful death on the battlefield.

...I can't help but wonder where you stand on the matter, master Raven.

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 10:53:18 UTC

Uh, just call me Raven.

And I'd prefer not ta fight if I could help it really.

undistracted February 1 2009, 10:58:39 UTC

Of course. Not everyone does.

So why did you fight, then?

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 11:06:45 UTC

Who said I was fightin'?

Raven...

I'm sorry... I didn't mean to pry.

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 11:28:23 UTC

Huh?

Oh you mean this thing? Don't worry about it, it's just a dream.

lc_whitequeen February 1 2009, 11:33:26 UTC

...

It looked more like a memory. What I am uncertain about it... is it yours?

[Have an Asch still drowning in Peony's overshirt, as no one's been able to at least locate his own shirt yet. He watches the dream with a look of mute horror, not sure what to say.]

Raven...

You all right over there, old man?

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 22:26:19 UTC

Yeah I'm--

[lol wut. Asch wtf.]

...Lost yer shirt?

x_bloody_asch_x February 1 2009, 23:48:33 UTC

[Grumbles as he pulls one of the shoulders of the shirt, only to have the opposite shoulder fall off. Bad enough this is so not our color. SIGH.]

Yeah. It's... been a hell of a week.

notjustanoldman February 2 2009, 00:00:46 UTC

[just going to try not to laugh.]

Whose is it?

[and sigh]

Tell me about it. Haven't gotten much sleep.

*Pointed observation, as if something has finally dawned on him after all this time.*

... You were a soldier, Raven.

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 22:26:45 UTC

Who? Me? A soldier?

Now do I really look like one of those?

subsisted February 1 2009, 23:05:04 UTC

It looks like you do.

Did you retire?

notjustanoldman February 1 2009, 23:08:07 UTC

...

[persistent cyborg who ruined christmas :|]

If I had been a soldier, then I would have definitely retired a while ago.
