Dream - The Nightmare

[wooliefrand]

[It's dark. Somehow, darker than even Blossom's void.

As soon as you take a step though. . . there are lights. Dozens, thousands of burning, angry eyes peer down at you, and a storm of mist swarms around you.

You've entered his nightmare. There is no escape until he awakens. Comment if you're solo or beneath each other if you're in a group thread--you may end up in potentially different starting points.]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[psynchroneyes]

—Whoa.

[ She's... trying to ignore all the eyes burning glares at her. ]

This is creepy. Definitely one of the more unsettling somniums we've entered, huh...

[ SOLO FOR NOW unless anyone wants to hop in, but fair warning my schedule this week is lol lmao. ]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[wooliefrand]

[It's about to get creepier!

The infinite number of eyes narrow at her in eerie stillness. . .before they all shut, leaving her in the dark once more.

But then one massive eye opens beneath her, a bright, burning red as she begins to sink into it like a pool, an unseen force pulling her under.]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[psynchroneyes]

—Ah, shit! Already?!

[ If there's any hope of wiggling out, she will try. By god she will try. ]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[wooliefrand]

[Try so hard, but never get so far. . .

She's sucked under. Enjoy the novel(?) sensation of feeling like she's drowning, her consciousness getting harder and harder to maintain, before she unceremoniously hits the ground with a splat--still alive, but soaked, nothing broken. The floor beneath her is cold and ceramic, and the room is dim. There's a buzzing noise, like that of a freezer, and if she feels around, she'll grab on to. . .fur.

A large, black wolf. It pays no mind to her though, instead, weeping profusely in the direction of what little light is ahead of her.]

[eonsadrift]

[ He glances at the eyes and immediately looks away as he continues forward, refusing to acknowledge they exist. ]

Ooh, how scary~.

Go ahead, give me your worst. Let's see what you're capable of.

[ SOLO unless someone joins! ]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[wooliefrand]

[The eyes seem to respond to his challenge, as they get wider and wider and wider and--

Rather than the pitch black void, the room pulsates with dizzying, psychedelic colors as the eyes all converge on Zenith. And before he can take a step or even react much, he feels a thick, choking sensation in his throat, as black gunk begins to spew from his mouth.

Better get it all out before you choke.]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[eonsadrift]

[ Zenith clutches at his chest, doubling over as the black gunk starts to expel from his mouth, choking out words along with the goo. ]

Ugh... Is this it? Really?

[ It's a good thing he's alone because he is going to heave until he gets everything out of his system. The winds begin to swirl around him in an outward motion in an attempt to give him some room from the eyes. ]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare (CW body horror, gore)

[wooliefrand]

[His last heave is the hardest--as not only does the black gunk eject from his system, but also, the wet splat of an entire heart. The entrails of a wolf. And finally, a perfectly in tact, feminine, clawed hand. It's the hardest to get up, clinging to the inside of Zenith's throat, scratching at him until he forces it out his mouth, and he can finally breath proper.

The hand has a ring on it though, a golden one, and it skitters around, trapped by the wind vortex repeling the eyes. Not that he needs to keep that up though, as once the last body part is coughed up, the eyes all snap to their widest at once, leaving Zenith in an open, brightly lit white void and nothing but the contents of his stomach.


Oh, and a single, crystalline table. Something is covered on top of it.]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[failsaver]

[ well that's spooky. it'll be fine. BUSTS IN LIKE A B-MOVIE SUPERHERO ]

Alright, Frankie, let's see what you've got!

[ solo unless someone joins! ]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[wooliefrand]

[The eyes stare in mass at him, narrowing. . .

Before looking past him. It's almost a look of confusion. . .?

He doesn't have time to contemplate that though, as he may suddenly feel a knife stabbing him right in the back.

Does he sense it coming?]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[failsaver]

[ I MEAN YEAH he kinda does this shit for a living. not necessarily the weird dream stuff. the dodging lethal attacks tho? sure.

PORTS OUT OF THE WAY ]

—Hey! That's rude. I did kinda ask for it but it's still rude.

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[despair_to_live]

[solo. Comrades? The Queen of Hearts doesn't have comrades.]

[If the Queen is afraid, she isn't showing it. If the thing wants to attack her, it'll attack. If it's observing, let it observe.]

Re: Dream - The Nightmare

[wooliefrand]

[Well now

Time for dozens and dozens of oozing hands to reach up and drag her into the inky void!! It'll feel as if she's drowning, if only for a few agonizing minutes. . .

until she lands hard on her back, as if landing on glass. But there's a pleasant smell around her. . .flowers. But equally, the stench of death.

As Blossom's corpse lay next to her, in her true form, rotting, dying. Both are encased in a glass coffin.

A giant black wolf lurches over them, weeping.

what up!!]

[despair_to_live]

[she practically does snow angels as the void takes her... laughing quickly gives away to convulsing. Her mind starts to accept this could be the despair of dying alone and consumed by nothingness...]

[then, all that fun slips away, and she's next to Blossom's corpse.]

...

[time to tap on the glass]

Dream - Lullabye

[wooliefrand]

[You appear in a light void. You land on some clouds. . .it's honestly pleasant.

In the center, a massive black wolf rests on a cloud, sound asleep.

It's silent in the void. But if you speak, maybe he'll hear you.]

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[eonsadrift]

[ WELL THAT WAS... sudden. Zenith blinks several times as he crashes down in the clouds, clutching his chest like there's still a gaping wound there. But... there's nothing. The sensation fades.

And the landing wasn't even that bad.

He shoves back up to his feet, approaching the wolf in the center. ]

...oi. You need to wake up. Aren't you sick of sleeping? There are still things left for you to do.

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[failsaver]

[ he's nestled against the wolf. wolf couch. waves to Zenith as he approaches ]

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[despair_to_live]

[The Queen blinks her eyes, falls, and finds herself... there.

She immediately starts cackling, shaking with laughter. She can't help it. She can feel something. And that thing is despair. Beautiful. Glorious. Despair.]

Hail to the fucking Queen, baby!!

[The rush is tremendous. Finally, something other than boredom! Something other than muted entertainment, passing curiosity, and smug satisfaction of her own twisted perception of reality.]

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[psynchroneyes]

[ —wheeze. ]

Ack. Augh... Wait. We made it?

[ She's SOAKING WET, but here. ]

Did—he see Ceo...?

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[failsaver]

I dunno, but I hit him with a library and then we drank alcohol?

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[eonsadrift]

[ He's clawed practically to ribbons, his hands in particular. ]

I tried to convince that fool he had to live for his kids, still. I don't know if that part got through to him, but... maybe part of it did.

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[doggonemad]

— why the hell're ya wet?

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[failsaver]

[ hmmm.

plops down next to the wolf. turns his back. leans against him like a couch. comfy. ]

Re: Dream - Lullabye

[doggonemad]

[ did you know that he was here, too. because he was. in fact, he went down his own path (thanks ash my health has sucked this week).

and what is his very important contribution to all of this, might you ask? well— ]

— yo, why the fuck'd the crows have shivs.

[ clearly, this was needed. ]
