⚔ // once upon a dream

[discutio]

[You all know the drill by now. Ignis and Camilla have taken over the nearest kitchen, and there's going to be food in the Pokemon Center soon enough; a warm and comforting vegetable curry. Highwind's even out now, welcoming any and all who might need a large cloud bird to hug after everything that was.]

[It's been a long night. Everyone needs a good meal and a long rest, and luckily one of those things is being seen to immediately.]

Comments

[eudaimonikos]

Mine actually wasn't that bad.

[Knowing Michael, he's probably lying at least a little. But only a little.]

I figured out it wasn't real pretty fast, so after that it didn't matter as much. The first time I met it was worse. How about you?

[takestheblame]

...it was rather bad. Darkrai messed with some things I'd rather not to experience again for as long as I live.

[He's not afraid of admitting that part, although he's hesitating about specifying]

I'd have tried to fight him, if we hadn't been on a mission to get him on our side.

[eudaimonikos]

I'm actually a little surprised more people didn't try to fight him. He made Aya cry.

[Which is evidently the criteria for being a monster around here.]

I don't think he really understood that it was wrong.

[takestheblame]

He said to me it was necessary. I don't believe that at all.

[It just seems so excessive to try to make a point through nightmares involved loved ones being hurt!]

[eudaimonikos]

Yeah, he was saying that a lot.

[Michael thinks on it for a moment.]

He isn't wrong, that knowing what people fear tells you things about them. But no, I don't think it was necessary.

[takestheblame]

Was that what he did to you, these same nightmares? Back when you first stayed at that inn?

[He doesn't envy you went through these nightmares twice, that's for sure]

[eudaimonikos]

Not...the exact same. I'd say the first one was worse, really, it didn't just fall apart like these ones...
