Heart Game: Duality - Round 1

[idolpro]

Your sleep is restless, and it's hard to settle as your eyelids refusing to stop twitching, and you can feel an itch at the back of your mind, flashes of uncomfortable thoughts dipping in and out of your dreams, constantly interrupting your tries to relax. ... Are you even asleep?



...



Apparently you were, because you wake up with a start, cheek pressed uncomfortably to steel flooring and flickering lights overhead. Unfortunately, you don't feel very rested at all.

The one and only. Sorry for waking you.

It's... it's fine.

[he turns to stare down in his lap, pulling a hand through his hair]

I had a bad dream.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

[Kicks off his shoes before flopping back on the bed]

Yeah? What about?

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

...

Fire. Killing everyone I know.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

Definitely a nightmare then. Have that one often?

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

And others.

[Reaches over to ruffle his hair again]

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

[...squares his shoulders, but leans into that]

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

What are the others about?

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

Dying... watching my friends die. Those end faster, though.

The ones with choking is the worst ones.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

Choking?

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

I've... died from it. A few times. And the decapitation, I dream of that too. It always returns to that, and I don't understand why.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

Mm....I've had nightmares about games and my deaths. They're awful.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

I just... want to be able to handle them better. They always return.

[Reaches out to ruffle his hair]

I wish I had tips. Talon sleeps out on the balcony because of his and I usually either sleep in the living room or with Gold because of mine.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

...so sleeping with someone else helps?

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

I think so. It works for me.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

I should... ask someone.

[who, though. not that he'll remember this conversation later]

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

I can't stick around in here, but I could go get you one of the cat plushes?

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

If you want...

[which cat plushes? there are so many in his heart]

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

I'll be right back then.

[Gets up from the bed to get plushes from the cat and pillow room, having heard the combo for the door from the others]

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

[waiting patiently, then]

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

[Returning with a cat plush]

Ta-da.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[asonoficeandfire]

Ah... welcome back.

Re: DUALITY'S ROOM

[shutthefoxup]

[Handing over the plush before going to look at the knickknacks]

Thanks.
