"No!" She grabs the sides of her head.
-
"What? Tara. TARA! TARA IM STILL ALIVE." [b]he speaks like he's trying to wake someone up[/b]
-
She mumbles something inaudible.
-
[b]he looks confused[/b] "He's still alive isn't he, that's like a trigger phrase to you, ya know? Those weird sayings that trigger something in the brain and take over, basically. I AM STILL ALIVE!"
-
"I don't know anymore."
-
"You should just rest, after all of that... But I do have a question, you don't have to answer if it harms you that much, but what exactly did nightmare do to all of them?"
-
"Gutted them and strung their entrails..." She trails off.
-
".... This is going to hurt you, you can freak out if you want to, But that was probably me...."
-
"I can't, not yet."
-
"Can't what?"
-
"Talk about that night..."
-
"It's okay, you should rest." [b]he starts for the door[/b]
-
"Where are you going?'
-
"No where in particular... Is there any way you can switch nightmares essence into ME instead Of you? It's kinda unbearable seeing someone tortured like this..."
-
"It's not exactly his essence it's more like...I'm suffering from PTSD almost. Or some other trauma induced condition."
-
"Is there any science magic that can transfer it to me?!"
-
"Not that doesn't switch our entire minds."
-
"You've got to be kidding me."
-
"Sorry, I guess that would be too convenient."
-
"This will sound weird, but do you want me to stay here? Kinda sucks to have to go through that shit alone, ya know?"
-
"It would be nice."
-
"Okay, I'll just be here if you need me." [b]he curls up in the corner of the room and falls asleep almost immediately[/b]
-
She giggles slightly before an intense session of contemplating on her past.
-
[b]he sleeps, not yet awoken[/b]
-
She smiles at him, sadly, regretting her absence from his life.
