[Lancer never, ever, ever dismissed dreams as nothing. Few understood as well as Cú Chulainn just how real dreams and nightmares could be. They could hurt, and not just emotionally. Once had seemed a warning, and now twice was striking him as a blaring sign of Bad Things To Come.]

[Scowling, he'd left his room at the breeding center and made his way to the roof--never mind how he got up there. (Trees were involved.) It was easier to think when he was off the ground, for whatever reason. Some holdover from his scouting duty as a Servant, maybe. Who cared? The point was that his head was a jumbled mess of things and he couldn't determine the cause or reasoning. When was the last time he'd even had a nightmare to begin with?]

[Even at this ungodly hour, he knew full well somebody was likely to still be awake. Johto and its inhabitants were weird like that. Sitting on the edge of the roof with no thought to the height, Lancer took his Pokegear from his pocket and typed a quick message.]

I'm starting to think some weird shit might be going on around here. Anyone else get that feeling?

Figure of speech, Saber.

Furthermore you are taller than me.

[ Oh. ] You are upset?

[solas_ion]

I'm not upset. But I don't always sound crazy, you know.

[ex_cashcow493]

No, but you have a tendency of saying odd things around me whereas several others treat me with the respect an adult has earned.

[solas_ion]

I have no idea what you're talking about. Did I say something wrong?

text;

[ex_cashcow493]

It is unimportant for now.
You were going to talk to me about your dreams?

[solas_ion]

Yeah, sure. I'll be down in just a minute.

[Sigh. He'd just be climbing down and walking back inside, whaaaatever.]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ She means that he never talks to her about how he's feeling. Not that she's one to talk considering she keeps her emotions well-guarded...

Don't worry, she's in her office. The only place she ever is at. ]

[solas_ion]

[Knock knock, workaholic.]

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Here she just thought they were going to keep texting each other. ]

Oh, you're here in person? [ There's no way she made it to the door that quick unless she jumped over her desk. ] Great!

[solas_ion]

[saber...]

It seemed a little ridiculous to keep that up when we're in the same building, y'know?

[ex_cashcow493]

It sure did. [ Half of her desk's contents are on the ground now... ]

I was hoping you would come to sense and speak with me in person.

[solas_ion]

I can be sensible en-...did something happen to your desk?

[ex_cashcow493]

[ Looking back at it. ] I was re-arranging it.

[ WITH HER FEET. ]

[solas_ion]

Did you want some help with that?

[ex_cashcow493]

I want you to stop derailing the conversation.

[solas_ion]

I'm not derailing anything. We can talk and do other shit at the same time, you know.

[ex_cashcow493]

Did you really come down here to clean up my desk or did you have a different kind of 'shit' to do in mind?

[solas_ion]

Wh--no! It's nothing like that, don't be crazy!

[ex_cashcow493]

Nothing like what? [ Why is he suddenly acting this way? ]

[solas_ion]

Just...just nothing. Forget it, okay?

shakes do you want this eevee i just caught... if so what should i name it x(

[ex_cashcow493]

... No, I won't forget it. You are always telling me to do forget these remarks of yours, so I think this time I shall not.

maybe xC name it whatever you want doofus

[solas_ion]

I thought we were supposed to be talking about something else.

smacks... i caught it because you said on your plurk x(

[ex_cashcow493]

Then why not talk about it?

Dx ow

[solas_ion]

Look, have you been having any weird dreams lately?
