I can feel the madness slowly creeping in...

It is that time again, meatship.

Once again, the King of Nightmares has deigned to spread his touch to all of your dreams.

This time, however, he has decided to give them a much more personal touch, sending his very own children to visit each and every one of you, slowly sowing the seeds of madness within all of you.

Such a kind and loving king he is, isn't he?

[ooc: Alright folks, Nightmare King is ramping things up a bit. These nightmares are a good bit more dangerous now, and he's sending in his minions to make things a little more real. The nightmares will be of a much more serious nature this time, designed to start driving the crew slowly insane. Characters are more likely to run into nightmare minions in the guise of someone or something that will tug at the edges of their sanity. Also, this time, the characters can have joint dreams, as these nightmares are of a more mystical nature this time. Once again, tagging in isn't mandatory, but if you want to, go crazy (literally)!]

[Additional Note: Any injuries won't be carrying over to real life at this point in the plot but don't worry, we'll get there eventually!]

Ah, so that's how it's going to be. Well, if Sheik's not going to broach the subject, Jamie will let it go - for the moment.

He follows them down the path, not saying much of anything. Instead, he's got a hand on his sword and is glancing around, expecting the Nightmare King to throw something else at them. But...there isn't anything. And when Sheik calls back, he realizes that it is feeling a little less like a nightmare.

"Aye. It does feel a wee bit better." That's...odd.

"Perhaps it means we will awaken soon," he says quietly.

Or perhaps it's Zelda, with her vivid, prophetic, lucid dreams, remaking the world of her subconscious so that she may understand the vision she's granted.

And there's something else, too - a sense of simultaneous sleepiness and wakefulness. He doesn't question it; he merely embraces it.

The field they're walking in is misty, its edges obscured. It's easy to believe the world is simply himself, and Zelda, and Jamie.


((OOC: Want to wrap this up in a tag or two? Also, Sheik would be willing to contact Jamie the next morning and try and explain, if you're willing?))
bonnypiperlad: (whatsthat?)

"That would be verra nice," Jamie says wistfully.

As they walk, things seem to definitely be more peaceful, and Jamie starts to relax. As he does, there's that sense that he is not quite there, almost like the dream world is dissolving around him. But rather than a sudden shattering that thrusts him into true consciousness, it is a softer, gentler awareness.

I can wake up now.

Between one step and another, Jamie simply vanishes...

And back on Stacy, his eyes pop open. He sits up, rubbing absently at his temple as he tries to make some sense out of what just happened. After a short while, though, he lies back down and drifts into a thankfully dream-free slumber.

(OOC: Works for me. :) And I am certainly willing to have Sheik contact Jamie for explanations, so um, new thread?)

And over on another part of the ship, Sheik opens his eyes with a start, more reassured than he would have thought possible to see the familiar ceiling of his room.

He will have to explain to Jamie, soon - Zelda murmurs a sleepy assent, too.

But that can wait until the morning. Turning to curl up on his side, he and Zelda both drift off in to a similarly dreamless sleep.


((OOC: Up on trans_channel :) Although any threading will have to wait until tomorrow, I'm about to crash. Got less than four hours sleep last night @.@ ))
