Ƹ̴Ӂ̴Ʒ Second Dream Ƹ̴Ӂ̴Ʒ Forwarded to late night

[Around the afternoon, Paprika was released from the experimental alternate universe and went back to being her cheery dream girl self. And, like most others, she thought she was spared from the continued experiments.

Oh how wrong she was.

Like on the first night she arrived in Luceti, Paprika is going to be dropping into people's dreams through teleportation. Prepare to get your dreamspace invaded citizens of Luceti. Please don't kill her for this - she really doesn't want to imagine the crazy stuff you dream of.]

You can't win every battle you fight. But, I'm sure he wouldn't want you beating yourself up like this. [She pats his arm a little.] If you don't accept what happened then these nightmares will only keep occurring.

[She looks at the two, but shrugs them off to look at Giles again.]

Do you mean Kendra and the others?

[Paprika flies away from the flames when he says that and goes back enough to change to normal, landing about a few feet from the campfire.]

Enjoying the midnight moon?

Yes. I knew them, in this life. Circumstances had just changed for the experiment.

Kendra was the Slayer who was called after Buffy's first death. She, however, was eventually killed by Drusilla. Larry was a football player with an unusual fondness for tormenting Xander. He died on Graduation Day. Oz was a werewolf who dated Willow for a while before he left Sunnydale. Tara is Willow's girlfriend.

[And then he remembers that it's one of his dreams, everyone is a hot chick.]

Considerin' how chaotic things have been these past few weeks, this is just what I need.

[Luke gives a little snort at that as he pushes his hair back - it really does get in the way often like this.] If I could tell my bad dreams to back off and let ones like this show up, I would. I guess I think about the other stuff more often... that's why these things show up, right?

[Oh Raven. Just wait until you figure out she's real.]

You mean with the experiment, right? [She walks over and takes a seat across from him by the fire.] What a frustrating couple weeks it's been. What happened to you?

[You're a lady after his heart baby.]

A bit of nostalgia I didn't want, a nasty argument that made me leave home, oh and as we're speakin', back in the real world I'm stuck in the body of another woman.

All in all? Frustratin'.

What about you magical dream lady? Tell me I'm not the only one in this headspace goin' crazy!

[identity profile] denyingreasons.livejournal.com 2010-12-02 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd be grateful. [He looks sheepish.] Pretty sure they still feel bad about it still without knowing I dream about it.

So they took the place of the people you knew in Luceti? [She can only assume as much if he said Kendra is the one she gave the clipboard to.]

[personal profile] consultmybooks 2010-12-02 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Close. They took the places of Buffy and the others. People I knew from Sunnydale.

[identity profile] byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com 2010-12-02 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I wouldn't have told them even if you said so. I keep everything that I see private as a code of ethics. It's apart of my job after all.

[identity profile] byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com 2010-12-02 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[She nods.] Exactly. Dreams come from the subconscious and sometimes things like trauma can affect the mind enough that it leaks into your sleep, when the subconscious is the most active.

Your job?

[Get in line Raven; she already has a small group of admirers in Luceti.]

Wow. That really is overkill.

[A snicker.] You know, the only one that calls me 'magical dream lady' is a little five year old girl. But, I guess you aren't. I've been teleporting into dreams all night long.

I work as a researcher in dream therapy. A psychotherapist specializing in dreams is the best way to describe my profession.

You probably got a lot of people confused. ...But I think the one who got the worst off was you in the end.

[Raven's already got someone else in mind.]

Hey! It's my dream, I'll call ya magical dream lady all if I want to. Besides, it what's you are. And ya just know I'd be the cutest five year old girl ya've ever met!

Teleportin' into dreams? Wait, are you an actual resident?

It wasn't an especially pleasant other life, no.

And mourning for people who were never here was not at all productive. But we were all dead when we weren't in Luceti, and so mourning seemed the only appropriate thing to do.

...I think I may have misinformed some people on that score, actually. When they listened at all.

[She lets out a laugh and smirks.]

Fine, fine, you're the boss. But I think being a five year old girl crosses my agreeable line.

Yes. My name is Paprika.

[identity profile] byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com 2010-12-02 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
You believed they were and that's all that mattered at the time. ...I'm sorry for calling you crazy. My head was in a different place and I wasn't myself.
fabrecation: (I'm no one special really...)

[personal profile] fabrecation 2010-12-02 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Dreams are kinda scary, huh... It's usually the first two I always see. I don't think I've been here very much. [He looks over at her with a sheepish smile.] H-Hey, I'm sorry you had to see all that. I didn't think I'd get any, uh... visitors.

[The glow of the flowers turns pink, as if to show the blush that doesn't show up on Luke's face.]

[He can't help but laugh himself, maybe that is quite a disturbing image after all.]

Paprika? Ya mean that spice used in cookin'? Don't tempt me to make 'delicious' related puns, please.

[Giles was evidently not expecting that. He stares blankly at Paprika for a second, but finally he smiles.]

Thank you.

I eventually realized that that had probably been the case [because the alternative was horrible] but, um, thank you.
