Heart Game: Duality - Round 1

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.

[gives a squeeze]

They suck but they're not as real as a moment like this one, right?

[oh...

he curls in a little on himself, still holding B's hand]

No, they're not.

It's okay to be hurt by them and all. But don't forget we're here.

It's just... it happens all the time, and I wish I could at least sleep well one night without them.

Every night?

Yes.

[he's never mentioned this, has he]

Sometimes it's not as bad, but... I'm starting to wonder if something is wrong with me.

C has them every night too.

Oh...

[he sags slightly. it's awful to hear that, but hearing he's not alone in it is... not good, but it helps]

People ask me all the time if my potions could stop nightmares. It's really common here.

I know... I asked you once, and you told me.

So nothing is wrong with you.

...thank you, B.

No problem.

[he looks a little less pale, a little calmer, at least]

Have you been okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm glad. This place...

Mm... it's a lot.

Everything is always a lot.

Yes.

Lay down for a bit?

I can't, sorry.

Oh...

Right. You have to keep going, I know.

I wanna help as much as possible.

[a lopsided smile]

I can try to answer a question if you have one.

Where do you need me to go?

Ah...

...where did you come from...?

Cats and feelings.
