[...It really hasn't been all that long since she's had a regular dream, but it feels like it's been forever. Derse was destroyed, after all, so by all right she shouldn't even be dreaming right now

[ given Aerith's position -- crouched low to the ground, one (freshly-licked and wet) finger hovering above it, debating on whether she wants to find out if this is really sugar or if she should heed all that common sense about not eating off the ground --
this is a very involving decision, you see. the curiosity is crippling, the common sense standing staunch, and a middleman is trying to justify that it is not really eating off the ground if she's eating the ground itself. besides, this is a dream, right?

[Nepeta wiggles her rear end in the air, mimicking the movements of a cat perfectly. She recognizes at least the form of the creature in front of her - a human, though she's only seen four humans in her lifetime.
She doesn't need her claws for this one. She doesn't want to hurt the only human that's ever been in her dreams, after all!

[ there's only a blur of green and gray in the corner of her eye -- the woman turns and is promptly knocked on her back with an "ohf!", her hands rising to push Nepeta off when she stops, staring at this person in confusion. ]
A ... cat? No ... what are you? [ she is not sure whether she should expect an answer, mind still stuck on "cat". ]
[Nepeta giggles gleefully and rolls off of her "prey." The playful glint in her eyes isn't as strong as it could be, but it's definitely there - she grins and shows sharp fangs.]
AC is a troll! But AC pawsitively adores cute kitties, so she does her best to be just like them!
[No one else is around, so surely this girl must be referring to herself, right?]
[He remembers this, the Land of Little Cubes and Tea but why he would remember or even rather, dream of it now is questionable. It's highly unlikely for him to even be dreaming, Derse has long since been gone.
He's STRONG but even he can't remember dreaming after he was knocked unconscious before. Very few can knock him down, much less out. His memories are fuzzy, not befitting of a well educated mind but he wanders through the familiar hills of sugars and sweet smelling tea.
It is a dream, he may as well allow his dream self to tell him what he wants.
Or show him, even if all the tea makes him crave a glass of milk all the more.
He should be easy for Nepeta to find, he's big, hulking, and grey as always.]
[He can't see it, but Nepeta's eyes sparkle with excitement and - relief. She's so happy, and relieved, and a whole slew of other emotions she's not entirely sure of, to see him again. She's not entirely sure how this place works yet. Their dreamselves should be dead, but here they both are, in the Land of Little Cubes and Tea, and Nepeta has no idea how or why they're here.
But they're here.
And that's all that matters.
She pounces, and doesn't bother softening her impact. She knows he won't mind.]
[Equius Zahhak goes down (and little cubes go everywhere) without a fight because it only takes him a split second to register the tacklepounce as not threatening and would only be dared by one troll in particular.
As dignified as he can, face first in broken sugar cubes:]
[Nepeta instinctively opens her mouth to retort "No I'm not!" - but instead, she clings tightly to Equius, refusing to move.
She never thought she'd be able to do this again, even in her dreams. Not with Derse destroyed and her dream self skewered like a choice cut of hornbeast.
And certainly not ever again in the Veil.
She'd been curious about the nature of this dream before, but she decides it's not important right now. She can look into that later. There are more impawtant things to do right now.]

Nepeta, you're behaving childishly.
