Has anyone had dreams where they were... someone else entirely? I don't mean like living a different life. I had those too. I mean ... literally being someone else. In a different body and everything. It's ...

[ Scary. A frown tugs down the corner of her mouth. ]

What about ... different places? Like ... like there were other worlds out there. Lots of them, not just one.

[ Her dreams were vague, and fragmented, but she thinks she remembers... a city in a desert. And a place that was dark, and spooky, with all these tombstones and ghosts...

But what woke her up was something else entirely. A disturbing dream about being stuck in some sort of pod in a bright white place... and a man with long silver hair and orange eyes staring at her. Why had he been there? What had he wanted with her?

Why had it hurt like that? So sharp, and suffocating...

Her dreams suggest... something. Another person. But she's almost afraid to ask. Still... ]

... Sora? Can I talk to you?

[ As soon as she finishes saying the words she feels silly for asking. What can he tell her? After all, they're just friends... not even best friends, like her and Ven are. Even if he was in her dreams.... Nnnn. Stupid Shifts... Maybe she should just go back to sleep. ]

(ooc; source for Xemnas being a creeper is here for the curious, at the section that starts with "Where am I?"

also to clarify, late, the post is only filtered from her direct maternal and paternal lines. that is, sanji, nami, hughes, alexei, brook... etc. all other relatives, aunts/uncles/cousins/siblings/whatever, are fine.)

[Hey there daughter of his sister. He sees that filter and decides to respect your privacy, your uncle is a cool secret keeper. Mostly, he's just gauging if everything is okay, though he does understand, having had some crazy dreams himself.]

Seems like weird dreams are happening a lot recently. [Based on what he's seen on the network as well as his own experience.]

[Voice | Filtered Away From Family 95%]

Yeah, I've been listening to everyone talk about it... and while the dreams were weird, they weren't-- really weird until the one I just had.

[ a beat. hay, uncle. please don't tell my mom about this. ] What about you?

[Voice | Filtered Away From Family 95%] Now that life isn't eating me

[sonatasedge]

Never had dreams like that 'bout people I've never met before.

... Do you need to talk about it? [He's referring to that mysterious dream she just had, of course. Not that they have an extremely close relationship or anything. He doesn't expect her to say yes.]

I've spoken with another villager who had dreams like that, actually. Where she was a different person entirely.

... really? Who? [ it's not just her? ]

Buffy Horner. Mixed in with the dreams about living another life.

What about somethin' else entirely?

[ A pause. ] 'sides that, though, there's definitely different places.

[ ... ] Like ... like what? [ because... she might know from that, too. but that monster couldn't have been her ... could it? ]

You really think so? I thought it was kind of strange...

[voice | filtered 90%]

[forgiatura]

A sword — I mean, 'course, he could talk and think for himself and everything, but. Whenever I dream 'bout him, it's on some kinda battlefield, or [ a pause, trying to recall what exactly ... ] a great big castle in the sky.

But even if I'm not dreamin' about him, the places I'm at otherwise don't look like anything from the valley, either. [ ... ] They've got some of the people from it, though.

[ With more than a hint of frustration: ] Man, I can't make heads or tails out of these damn dreams.

[Written | whatever filter is already in place]

[antlioncyclone.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sort of. But it was more like dreaming a dream about being different, or a memory inside the dream. And whatever world it was in, it definitely wasn't anywhere in this one.

This whole dream thing is getting a little crazy.

Mewtwo . . . you're back.

That sounds about right, though. It's so strange. I guess it has to be another Shift, but it's so soon after the last one. Isn't there usually more time between them?

Yeah, I agree. I wonder if anyone's been spared.

[Written | Filtered ]

[antlioncyclone.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and I found some neat stuff,too

That's what everyone's been saying. I can't figure out if it's just Shifts or if it's a little bit real. Guess we'll have to wait and see, huh?

I don't think so, everyone's acting funny.

I had a dream like that too. I don't know who I was, but I know that I wasn't me at all. It was kind of creepy... I mean, not just the not being me, but the not knowing who I was supposed to be instead.

[Voice/Filter]

[fourteen]

Not you too... [ a pause. ] It's ... it's creepy, isn't it?

[Voice/Filter]

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah. If this is another Shift, I don't like it at all.

Roxas... you know, you were there. In one of my dreams.

Different worlds...

[And for a moment, in his mind, there's the briefest flash of Naoki - who had disappeared in the forest some time ago - telling him about strange and wonderful things from his world and--

... then it's gone, as suddenly as it had appeared.]

Yeah... I've been dreaming I was someone else these past few days. But I don't really think it's the same as yours...

... how is it different? [ gently. ]

[vanityunbcoming.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a sign of insanity, to me.

[ oh, not you. anyone BUT you. on a groan, irritated and tired ]

Go away, Vanitas. Besides, you can't tell me it hasn't been happening to you, too.
