Event Log: Dreamwalker the Second

[hadrielmods]

Who: All characters participating in the event
What: The event log for the Dreamwalker part 2 event
Where: In your dreams
When: October 14th-20th (the second log will go up on Oct 23rd, please keep the two weeks of the event separate!)
Warnings: All different kinds of dreams falling under the umbrella of Delight, Rage, Sorrow, and Hope.

This time, the weird stuff doesn't happen when you're awake- as a matter of fact, your waking hours are the normal ones. That's because you're forced to sleep by some unknown entity, getting more and more exhausted by the moment as night falls. Better make sure you're always around a soft pillow.

Once asleep, it doesn't get any less weird- your dreams will be influenced by one of the four gods that make up the first week. Something to make you smile, something to make you angry- or something that reminds you of your deepest regret or most vulnerable hope, they're all things that you're dreaming about now for some reason, no matter how hard you may try to pull away from them.

To make matters more complicated, there are others intruding on your dreams who definitely don't belong there, and while they may seem like manifestations at first, it becomes clear that these others are actually the consciousness of other members of Hadriel, getting some top quality exposure to your angriest, happiest, most sorrowful moments. Hope it doesn't get awkward when you see them tomorrow...

► This log covers October 14th-20th.

► Please tag headers of threads with content warnings where they apply

Right!

[ Angus grins at her and clenches his fist in DETERMINATION! ]

I'm glad you agree! Just let me know if you get too tired, I can give you a lift!

[ Did he just wink at Alphys? More importantly, were his pupils dragon-like slits, just for a second? ]

[sciencelizard]

[Honestly, if she wasn't already dreaming, she'd be convinced she is now. What is happening. Who IS this. How has she never seen them in the cave before because omg omg omg.]

Uh!!! Okay!!!

[AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA]

Which uh, w-which way did he go???

[hellosirs]

[ Oh BOY is this ever gonna be awkward once she meets 11-year-old Angus! Cool Teen Angus holds a hand up to shade his eyes as he peers over the edge of the building... ]

... To the left! He's going for the alleyway just off Chalice street! Come on!

[ ... AND THEY'RE OFF! Angus takes a left and hops onto the neighbouring roof - luckily, the buildings are pretty close, Alphys should be able to make the jump! ]

[sciencelizard]

[Oh, the absolute worst. But Angus speaks, and she nods fervently, trying not to be afraid of falling and dying. Or worse, making a fool of herself. Priorities!]

Okay! L-Let's go!

[She follows, still nervous, but forces herself to make the jump- and because this is a happy dream, she sails right over, landing with a little hop and a tiny cheer as she follows after. Still, her eyes are looking down, trying to spot the perp.]

[hellosirs]

Yeah, you made it!

[ Angus is actually applauding, as if they're at a golf match and Alphys just landed a hole-in-one. He walks over to peer over the edge of the building, and then frowns to himself. ]

... Oh dangit, he's got a vespa. We're gonna need to speed up.

[ And because this is an awesome dream, he steps back, takes a deep breath... and with a flash of light, transforms from Cool Teen Detective to Cool Teen Silver Dragon Detective, who is big enough to take up half the roof, but is somehow still wearing dragon-sized glasses, because why the hell not! ]

We'll be losing the element of surprise like this, but at least we'll catch up to him. Hop on!

[sciencelizard]

[Alphys just. Doesn't even have an answer for what the fuck is going on right now. If someone had asked her later what this was, she'd have probably described it as a fever dream. Is this one even on her anymore? What is it with her and dragons? Why doesn't he just eat the criminal?

All that comes out of her instead is a dumb nod.]

Okay????

[So she just. Does it. At least this is gonna be sick as hell.]

Uh... onward?

[hellosirs]

[Angus whoops in joy, AND WHOOSH, OFF THEY GO. It’s just as exhilarating and majestic as you’d expect flying on top of a cool teen dragon detective to be. Luck Dragon Lady by The Aquabats is playing in the BG and everything.

(And he can’t just eat the criminal, Alphys, the law exists for a reason! Also, that would be super gross!)

Just as they swoop down on Billy the Weasel, Angus wakes up from the dream. The awesome, lingering feeling of flight will stay with him for the rest of the day. ]

[sciencelizard]

[Alphys shrieks in the most ungraceful, anxious noise as they lift up, grabbing into fistfuls of hair just to keep from dumping off. This whole thing though? Fucking killer. Before long she's whooping and hollering, laughter going from nervous to genuine. This is amazing. This is the best day of her life?? This is SO MUCH ALL IN ONE.

And then, just as soon as it looks like they've made it, she's jostled awake, looking around but seeing nothing. Still... could have been a worse dream.

... Even if she might drink a little less coffee before bed next time. Seriously. How did she come up with THAT.]
