Twenty-Fifth Negotiations; Dictated.

[succubitch]

Every once in a while, I'm reminded of why I moved out of the castle. It sounds like you all just had a lot of fun with the last event they decided to pull on anyone. It sounds about as fun as it was that time the Castle decided to make our rooms all a projection of our inner psyche. Good times, as usual.

I guess the whole everyone being asleep and dreaming thing explains why the town felt like something out of the Twilight Zone though.

I found it a little ... enlightening. Then again, I wasn't trapped in a nightmare of my own.

[succubitch]

That would make things more tolerable, I imagine. It's easier to see what other people fear than have people see what you do.

[howruthless]

True. And the human mind is a powerful thing.

[succubitch]

It is. I imagine some of the things people saw where impressive, if a bit alarming.

[howruthless]

I know what I saw was certainly interesting.

[succubitch]

What did you see?

[howruthless]

In one mind, there was some kind of ... siren. Trying to drown you in a lake.

Another was a cave in the Middle East somewhere building a missile.

[succubitch]

A siren? That's different. Or at least one I've never run across before.

lilah }

[howruthless]

That's what the person I was with referred to it as. I'm not sure if it would hold true for all worlds.

tess }

[succubitch]

It's possible it wouldn't. Things do seem to vary quite a bit around here.

lilah }

[howruthless]

Still. It was quite the creature. It could take the face of your greatest desire.

tess}

[succubitch]

It sounds like quite the thing to see.

lilah }

[howruthless]

It was certainly something.

tess }

[succubitch]

I can only imagine.

lilah }

[howruthless]

Did you dream?

tess }

[succubitch]

No. It seems by living in town, I was spared the experience.

lilah }

[howruthless]

Looks like you lucked out.

tess }

[succubitch]

So it would seem.

lilah }

[howruthless]

I was fortunate enough to not have a nightmare of my own. I don't think i could handle someone else interpreting them.

tess }

[succubitch]

Quite fortunate. I cannot imagine letting people into my nightmares.

lilah }

[howruthless]

And then knowing most it would have to be talked about later.

tess }

[succubitch]

Yes. Or that it could be used against you.

lilah }

[howruthless]

Especially the type of people that can be found here.

tess }

[succubitch]

Exactly. I had enough of that sort of thing when the Castle turned our rooms into manifestations of our psyche.

lilah }

[howruthless]

I'm not sure I remember that.

tess}

[succubitch]

Probably for the best.

lilah }

[howruthless]

Probably.
