 Mister Sandman, where are you hiding?

Comments

[janee]

No idea.

[ashes_ascended]

Hey honey. How're you holding up?

[janee]

I fell asleep without taking my dream suppressants. I'm sorry... It wasn't on purpose.

[ashes_ascended]

Jesus shit, Janie... are you okay? [Even now he's trying hard not to start yelling at her. Sometimes it's not an easy promise to keep]

[death_ofthe_endless]

My brother isn't taking calls right now.

[janee]

I hadn't even meant to fall asleep. It's just bits and pieces but it was bad. I just want to cry.

[ashes_ascended]

Okay.. wrong Sandman. Excuse the dumb angel for sticking his face in.

[ashes_ascended]

[It's Vahl. It's bound to be bad, and now he wants to hold her.] Come here.

[death_ofthe_endless]

No biggie. Relax.

[janee]

...

[She hesitates. She remembers some things now, that she shouldn't, but only bits and pieces]

I'll be alright.

[ashes_ascended]

I can totally relax. Just don't like offending anything more powerful than me.

[ashes_ascended]

[He doesn't force it, and is now scared to ask, but] You can remember more?

[death_ofthe_endless]

Who is offended?

[janee]

I remember Sam. He was in my dream but I'd know my son anywhere and now I can't forget him. Him and Lynn are supposed to be growing up together on Keldra right now, aren't they?

And there's other stuff now too. Dakinor.

[blue_blazes]

Bigger problems than that right now. They went after Sara in her dreams.

[ashes_ascended]

[Knowing what he does about the other universe, Phoenix can hardly bear to think of Sam.] It's further along than that, they're grown young adults now, but if the enemy gets it into his head to fuck with their timeline..

..Oh. Uhh, right. Yeah, Dakinor.

[ashes_ascended]

Nobody apparently, just saying.

[ashes_ascended]

Shit.

Why are people not taking the meds? She's the third so far! It shouldn't be fucking happening. [Never mind his little 'command decision'. He's in command so he'll choose for himself.]

[death_ofthe_endless]

I meant it though. He isn't taking calls right now.

It's been busy and you'd be waiting around forever for an answer.

[blue_blazes]

Your guess is as good as mine.... but maybe they need to be crystal clear that people are going to die if they don't start following orders. If there's something wrong with the dream suppressants that's one thing, but if they're not taking them... we need to limit who gets what information, because that compromises us all.

[ashes_ascended]

It's okay, I didn't actually mean your brother.

I guess everyone gets busy around this time of year, huh?

[death_ofthe_endless]

Tis the Season, as they say.

[ashes_ascended]

I'll make it crystal clear. Don't worry on that score.

They work. Tried and tested standard issue in the last Hell War. And that's a good idea. Restricted information, until we get Vahl back.

Uh, listen. We have another problem. I'm telling you because I think Worldmind can stop you calling it up in a dream... it can do that can't it?

[blue_blazes]

I'll leave that to you then. Between the psychic buffers and worldmind regulating my body chemistry yeah. I'm safe for a secret.

[janee]

I've been good about taking them except for that once. Do you think they'd dare go near Lynn?

...Is that what you think of me?
