Effects: Happiness, familiarity, nostalgia, and coldness in the end.
Warnings: Slight spoilers for Pandora Hearts.
Notes: Interactive dream! Feel free to walk through the end of it or wait until she's woken up.

It's better than last year's song, at least. )

[ It was nice to see such a warm, happy setting. Morgana could only assume that this was what Vanessa's past holidays have been like.

But the dream slowly fades, and everything changes... Morgana is well aware of what it feels like to put on a show of fake cheer for others, but at least... at least Uther had treated her with love for the past few years. Though, that was only because he didn't know yet what she was.

She pauses, thinking of what to say as the dream ends. Finally, she decides against commenting on the dream altogether. If Vanessa wanted to talk about it, she could. ]

The cure. You've taken it?

[ It has been a while since the cure for that horrible virus came out. And Morgana had left a message for Vanessa in her mun's head... when she'd discovered that it existed. But it didn't hurt to make sure, regardless. ]

[It doesn't take much time past the end of the dream for her to wake from it, but the emptiness that she feels from seeing her mother's weakened face isn't the same as before. She's become more accustomed to it now, and even though it still hurts, the hurt is more easily masked. And yet totally got that message.]

I have. [She sighs in annoyance, shakes her head.]

Honestly, have they even figured out what caused it all to begin with?

Not that I know of.

[ But she smiles, because you seem to be looking better. ]

[She doesn't smile in return, but she's still trying to strike her mother's face from her mind. Still, she doesn't look horribly upset, just annoyed. Which is normal, pretty much.]

I've never been ill in a dream before. And now I'm indebted to that Vessalius boy for his part in the cure for it.

[The initial warmth of the dream was so familiar. It was inviting, and to anyone else, it would have been very comforting. Elliot, who was now standing just outside of the doorway, had barely cracked a smile upon noticing it. He couldn't help but feel nostalgic, and it was wonderful to see their old estate but he wondered if he really deserved to feel that way knowing what he did now.]

[His sister is sitting on the chair that had been displayed in the dream, holding the teacup between both hands nervously. By now, the image of the mother had faded from where it had been before, and the dream has turned cold. Even the teacup in her hands feels frozen. She leans over to put it down, catching sight of Elliot in the process.

She's never had anyone in her dream before, so she assumes that he is also a figment of her dreamstate.]

Elliot...come sit with me. [She says, listlessly.]

[He had half an instinct to try to walk off. Hopefully Vanessa would wake up soon and he'd be out of this

... No. He's never going to walk away from his sister like that. Awkwardly, he walks out, joining her, but not saying anything yet.]

[Self awareness in a dream is tricky; even when one is aware that they're dreaming, they're still trapped. But knowing that this is nothing more than a dream, she tips the frozen cup over until the tea begins to pour onto the ground. When it goes dry, she drops the cup as well.

For no other reason than the overwhelming feeling of loneliness that she feels sitting here like this in an old, half-memory.

But she really should humor the apparition of her brother for now.]

You're back from school? So early? Did you fail a final test?
