Event Log: Dreamwalker

[hadrielmods]

Who: Everyone!
What: The Dreamwalker event
Where: In your comfy bed and your sleepy head.
When: May 16th-26th
Warnings: Good dreams, weird dreams, bad dreams, straight-up nightmares. Please remember to tag for warnings in the header if things are going to be bad!

Have you been having trouble getting a good night's sleep? Tossing and turning, unable to rest those tired eyes? Or maybe you don't sleep at all, and never have. Not to worry! For a little while, you'll have no trouble at all falling asleep - in fact, as night falls, you'll find yourself overwhelmed with exhaustion whether you want to sleep or not. Lay down and rest your weary head, friends. Everyone could use a little extra sleep.

But what will your dreams bring? Something happy, images of a perfect day? Something hopeful, something you've wanted for a long time? Maybe you'll dream of anger, of the face of your worst enemy. Or maybe - just maybe - you'll have a horrific nightmare, and wake screaming, covered in cold sweat.

Not before others have time to see it, though. As you sleep, as you dream, the other residents of Hadriel, friends and enemies and people you've only met once, might find their way into your dreams. Or you might find your way into theirs - and then have to deal with someone's else's nightmares, or hopes, or anger. For the next ten nights, you'll find yourself either a host or a visitor, and no matter how you try you won't be able to stay awake once night falls.

Sweet dreams, Hadriel. Don't let the asshole fear gods bite.

She's my boss now. But we used to apprentice at the same place. [ Jon's answer comes easily as he stamps out the cigarette and gestures towards the warehouse. ] Shall we? [ Kate just nods and steps past him, pushing open the steel door that leads to the sterile white and strangely sweet smell of a clinic. The antiseptic was doing its job, despite the unfamiliar scent of it. ]

It been quiet? [ It certainly seems that way right now, as Kate peers over the reception desk at a file sitting there. ]

For the last week, yes. Before that we had a pretty big accident involving acid sprayers. [ He talks about it matter-of-factly and Kate wrinkles her nose at the idea of that scene. Acid powers were always a nightmare.]

Mello, what do you drink? [ apparently satisfied with whatever she was looking at, Kate steps away from the desk. ] We've got water, tea, and coffee. Decaf and not.

[torrefied]

[Mello follows them after them into the clinic, and once he realizes what the building is, it sets his teeth on edge. Not what it is on the surface, but what it could mean for him. After the explosion, he'd needed to be careful to avoid clinics or hospitals, lest the police be waiting to apprehend him.]

I'm good, actually - and you seem like you have a lot of work to do here. Maybe I should leave you to it.

[He forces a small smile, taking caution not to let on that anything is wrong.]

[dedikated]

[ Kate blinks at that, but- well, didn't he spend time here too? She could understand wanting to do something more exciting than watching her recharge equipment. ] Going to explore? Have fun. [ well, Mello, your lie worked. But there never would have been any police here anyway. ]

[torrefied]

Yeah ... there's someone I should probably look up, while I'm here.

[Doesn't he have something he should be doing? Some reason why he wanted to get back to the world? It seems like there is something, but he can't quite put his finger on it. Maybe if he does wander the city for a while, it will come back to him. He gives Kate a goodbye nod and heads back toward the door.]
