The Last Test [closed to: Adam M., Cale, Inara, Miku, Robin, Shadow, Sheik/Zelda, and Tony Stark]
There is a traitor in your midst, meatship. A crew member working for the Nightmare King, enacting his will subtly on the crew.
This person has access to all the Nightmare King knows about their crewmates, and there's plenty the horrible being can glean from their dreams.
Today, it's time to act, to try to cripple all they can, to bring the fears of their crewmates to the forefront to make them easier prey. Today they revel in their cruelty, their soul twisting and writhing in the grips of their cruel master.
[ooc: This is your cue! Each of you, tag in making a new subthread, and set up the setting of where your character is, like you'd do for an post to the comm in general. In the OOC post please lay out the fears and insecurities you plan to exploit in your character's final nightmare to help with the messin'--they'd be bringing those fears to the forefront with their comments, to make it easier for the Nightmare King to act on them]

Turning his attention back to Leela, Cale's eyes narrowed into a glare. "Needy? I'm needy?" he shot back angrily as he pushed his way out of bed and stood up, quickly gathering the top half of his plantsuit and pulling it on.
"I'm not needy. I don't need anyone. You're the one that followed me around and mauled me in the hallway and wouldn't leave me alone, remember?"
He was pissed. But the anger was little more than a cover, a cover for what the NK was after: fear. It was happening again. Just when Cale thought he had someone who cared about him, they were ditching him, leaving him behind, just like his father had.
"I mean, do I look like I wanna be tied down? Because I don't. I've been taking care of myself all my life and I've been doing a pretty good job of it. You'd just--you'd just get in the way. So...."

Like it means nothing to her. Like it never meant anything at all.
