Bring me your nightmaaares
Okay... as explained in the other post, there are--because of two awesome villains--going to be nightmares aplenty around here for a little while.
Would you like to donate some?
Because of receivers planted in rooms, thanks to some very stealthy little robots, the horrible nightmares your characters will be having are being recorded. So...go ahead and use this post to describe exactly what those horrible nightmares are all about! OR, if you'd rather for whatever reason, you can PM them to this journal instead.
--You don't have to reply with a nightmare here, if you don't want. If your character has nightmares, and it's not recorded for whatever reason, that's fine. I'd REALLY like you to, but it's not required to play along with this little mini-plot.
--Do whatever you want on the main comm. You don't have to broadcast any part of your character having a nightmare, or mention it at all, if you don't want. If you want to broadcast the whole thing, make your character miserable over it, complain, laugh it off, whatever...you can do that to! Your level of participation is totally up to you!
--The drug will do its thing whenever your character is asleep while it's in their system. When they're awake, they might feel that something is a little 'off', maybe a tiny bit of drowsiness or general malaise, but nothing alarming or too suspicious. Not much more than a normal mopey day. One dose lasts about 18 hours. Your character can have as many doses as you want, for however many nightmares you want, during the next week. Your character use alot of kitchen food? They might have a really sucky week, then. You only have to post me one nightmare description, though. Or more. Up to you. Whatevs.
--The nightmares themselves are very intense. Used to having nightmares on a regular basis? These are WORSE. The emotion and memory centers of the brain are sent into overdrive, so the dreams will be very deep, very visceral. The whole dream doesn't need to be horrible, since the drug will cause different things in different people, but it should ultimately fall into the 'nightmare' category.
--Want to do fun dream things like lucid dream (where you know you're dreaming), sleep-walking, reliving your day, reoccurring dreams, etc? Go right ahead! I want people to have fun with this. They can be straight-up reliving memories and/or facing fears, or be anywhere in the trippier range of how dreams can get. Knock yourselves out.
--Feel free to be as brief or as ridiculously tl;dr-prosey as you want in your replies here! I'm going to enjoy reading these, however you write them up. Go ahead and post/send them whenever you want, during the next week.
--If you guys have any questions or comments or...anything, don't hesitate to hit me up on AIM (I'm LostBlueHeights) or drop a question in the other ooc post.
EDIT:
--Forgot to mention that the strength of the dose will remain the same, and the length of a 'dose' will always be around 18 hours, no matter how much they consume. So, it's more of a matter of how many times they ingest the stuff, than how much.
--Also, I'm planning for the tainted food to last about a week. It'll be mostly up to you guys to control how long people continue to find tainted food and have nightmares. You want to find some poisoned rice after that? Sure, why not. There won't be a really well-defined end.
EDIT II:
Since people keep bringing it up, I'll just say it. You're not too late to join in on this, so don't worry about it! There is tainted food laying around for at least a week, so just jump in!
