discedo | 22nd Dream [Accidental Video]

[The feed turns on to show a darkened room, the small light from the communicator showing that it was actually a bedroom, given the faint outline of a dresser and some books scattered on top of it. There was nothing unsettling about the scene but maybe someone's device had turned on by itself...otherwise someone would be greeting the network by now...

Well, there was a greeting alright: someone slightly moaning off to the side. A creaking noise followed by a body shifting followed and it didn't sound pleasant to say at least.

Quickened breathing...

More moans...

The sound of names passing through their lips.

Those who are close and who she considers her friends and family...you'll hear your name clearly as her tone turns to panic.]

Nngh...no...please...

Not me...don't want this...

Get away...hurting...so...no...stay...haaa...!!!

NO!!!!

[That last word is emphasized for a reason: she was having a terrible nightmare. Enough for the final thing the network hears is her screaming before it cuts out. Roommates...you might want to go check on her.]

[There's silence on her end for a minute until she speaks up, voice breaking.]

I can't...

You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.

[ she quickly adds that after she hears the girl speak up - Ange can hear that voice breaking, after all, so.. ]

Don't force yourself. It's okay.

...thanks.

It's...not something I usually dream about. It still scares me.

Don't nightmares always scare us? [ the dream repeating over and over again of her family leaving, and no matter how much she stretches out her hand, she can't reach them, can't stop them-- ]

But.. they're just that. Nightmares. Dreams. They can't do anything actually bad to us or our lives.

...but what if they do?

[She's shaking and trying to hold her hands together in order to stop.]

They don't. They can't. [ yes, she's being a little insistent here, don't let this nightmare get to you, Sora!! ]

There's no way.

[I don't know...it was pretty intense...and hearing that bit at the hospital meeting, it didn't ease her worry.]

...I hope so. I really do want it to stay like that...

... Don't worry about it too much, okay, Sora? You'll just be worrying over nothing, and it'll be a waste of time.

...I'll try.

[And then suddenly fail when a certain someone comes to see her later. ~~Men makes things complicated.~~]

So then I can leave you alone again now without you further yelling in pain, right?

[ she means it in the most friendly way, really. ~~also darnit, men.~~ ]

[There's a bit of noise, the woman on the other end making a 'Mmhm' sound. So yes, she'll be ok for now.

~~Stubborn men are the worst.~~]

[ well, Ange's content enough with that for now. ]

Take care. [ and she turns off the feed. ]
