IC: Dream Post

[doesnothappen]

The space you are standing in is cold and grey and very still. There is nothing beneath your feet, nowhere to go. You hang for a long moment, in this place with no place, without direction or a proper sense of time, until the light dims...

...and your feet touch ground. Your eyes are closed. When you open them, you find yourself here.

"...dream..? Are you in my dream?"

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

I think so. Maybe.

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

"I'm sorry."

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

What are you apologizing for? There's no need for that.

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

"I would never show you this."

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

I would rather be with you then have you deal with it alone.

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

He just sort of crumples, sobbing.

[appleofhiseye]

[sitting down in a heap, petting his hair and rocking him a little bit, making soft soothing noises]

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

After a minute his arms come up around you and he clings. It takes him a long time to cry himself out, jagged choking sobs trailing off into sniffs and hiccups.

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

[YOU TAKE AS LONG AS YOU NEED TO. Clinging back a little, but otherwise just keeps petting]

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

"I don't... always dream this."

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

I should hope not. That would make sleeping even harder.

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

"Why are you here..?"

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

[huff!!]

To help. Though I don't know what to do. I do know that you're tired and need rest.

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

"There's a shelter, up the beach."

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

Then shall we go there?

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

He nods and gets to his feet. It's a slow stumble along the beach to a sad makeshift shelter made of branches, and he more or less falls into it when you reach it.

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

[flopping outside of it, resting and taking a look at the shelter :|a]

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

It's pretty clear that he made it out of debris in about fifteen minutes while exhausted.

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

[makes sense...sitting for a few minutes before getting up to scour for better debris to make a stronger shelter with]

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

There is plenty of debris -- branches everywhere, though they're all sodden and coated in grey mud.

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

[that does me no good at all.

...

IS THERE DRY WOOD TO MAKE A FIRE TO DRY OFF THE WOOD let's look for that]

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

There is no dry wood anywhere, not even if you go into the forest.

Re: The Beach

[appleofhiseye]

Well, there was a wave...

[going back to the shelter and peeking inside to see how Mau is doing]

Re: The Beach

[doesnothappen]

He appears to have passed out.
