in my long forgotten cloistered sleep [DREAM LOG]
[ The world is asleep -- the night hangs high with their stars glittering and decorating the deep blue velvet sky. Usagi is out at the edge of the Verdant Forest and the Rolling Plains, laying on the ground with Pinky the Clefairy laying next to her. In the tree next to them preening her feathers, is Lucky the Talonflame while Turnip the Gloom is napping underneath the same tree that Lucky has taken over.
Luna the Meowstic is curled up on her chest and Kira the Carbink seems to have taken upon itself to be the camp watch -- ready to
But, Usagi's attentions are purely focused on the sky above and the giant crescent moon that's lighting the world below with its silvery light. ]
Man, you can't get this kind of view in the city, huh?
[ It's a question that's partially directed to Pinky, who coos a Fairy! in response, but, really, it's to anyone else that wants to answer. ]
[ This was the destined day! That cake shop that Usagi had seen during her shopping trips had finally opened its doors! Of course, she had been one of the first customers waiting in the long line, having heard that this store's pastries and sweets were to die for and now that she was finally inside, Pinky sitting on the chair across from her at their designated table, she couldn't wait until their treats were brought over!
A few moments pass, and a waiter (and a cute one at that) finally brings an array of cakes for Usagi, as well as a few poke puffs for the Clefairy before sliding away. ]
It looks so good! Come on, Pinky! Let's dig in!
[ Usagi's first choice just so happens to be this delicious looking Strawberry Shortcake, and forking off a piece, quickly shoves it into her mouth to taste the deliciousness!
... except what she tastes isn't a sponge cake or whipped cream or strawberries. No. What she tastes is the distinct flavor of carrots. ]
EW!
[ Odd. Usagi then tries her other cakes, only to find they all taste like carrots. Which wouldn't be such a bad thing... if she didn't hate carrots. So, there's really only one thing that Usagi can do in this situation, as Pinky just chews happily away on her own food. ]
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
[ It's something that Usagi's never had before when her dreams usually consist of bright colorful worlds or the usual first world problem dreams like all the food that she consumes tasting like carrots.
Darkness. Complete and utter black.
The only thing bright in this world is her. ]
Hello?! [ Her voice echoes through the nothingness, and unlike before when she was in the Dream World, while filled with ghost pokemon and had some sort of life energy.. this place is empty and soundless. Panic sets quickly inside of Usagi as she starts to run through this lifeless world.. hoping that she finds something... something.. anything to help her out.
But then, there's something off in the distance and instead of running aimlessly, her new goal was to see what that lonely bright object is. She notices that it's a mirror floating amidst the dark and hesitates to look into it... She does though -- and what reflects is someone that is her, but isn't. A little taller. A little older. Silver hair, but most peculiarly a golden upturned crescent mark in the middle of her forehead. ]
Woah! Is that me? No way!
[ Usagi does a few poses in the mirror, because wow the maybe her in the mirror definitely had a better figure than her (but that's just what happens when you get older right? You fill out in the places that matter?), and then leans forward to inspect the thing in the middle of her forehead. Right as she's about to touch it, she notices the reflection of a Small-sized Pumpkaboo staring straight at her.
She doesn't have enough time to react because as soon as she turns to try and face the pokemon, there's a sudden flash and the world ripples -- changes around her. Soon, it's not the black silence she had been racing through. It's a town that, by the looks of it, has been recently decimated. There are still some buildings that are smoldering from fire. Others have been razed to the ground but that's not what frightens her the most. What she sees are pokemon and humans alike, laying unmoving and unbreathing on the ground. There's no doubt about what she's seeing...
They were dead.
Usagi's mouth opens to start screaming, trying to back away from what she's seeing and feeling when she bumps back into a wall with a mostly standing glass window. There was that reflection again -- that person that was her but wasn't.. except when she looks down, she lifts up on of her long tails to watch as the pale silver strands fall between her fingers. Her hand pulls away from her hair as if it's burning her hand, and steps back until she's in the middle of what was supposed to be the main road through this small town. What was going on? Who was she? Was she alone? Why was she here? ]
W-why... I don't... I don't want this... I don't want this at all!
[ ooc: herp derp I should have mentioned this before, but dream III is meant for anyone who has history dating before the savior, so, feel free to have your characters (or past versions of them) go who the eff is this chick crying in the middle of a razed town. Other wise, dream I and dream II are ripe for the hilarious and friendly picking!
also content warning with dream III: violence and death of both human and pokemon alike. ]
no subject
. . . . . No way! I didn't know there was anything like that!
[ Pinky just face faults into the grass while the other pokemon just sigh at how... gullible their human is. Quickly, Usagi just slides over to the bush she's pretty sure is talking (actually, she's at the bush just right of where Harima is hiding) and looks at it with excited eyes. ]
What does an Ancient Bush of Love do? Do you grant wishes? Are you going to make a boyfriend for me appear?
no subject
Harima felt his face burning red underneath those sparkling blue eyes, and he had to remind himself to breathe. This was his chance!]
The Power of Love is a Magical Thing. [He replied, choking on that squeaky voice he had adopted.]
What is it that you wish for the most?
no subject
[ Usagi goes quiet as she tries to think about what she really does want the most, when it comes to matters of love. As she's distracted, Luna is just going to slink around out of sight so she can silently make her way around the bush so she can actually see who it is that's leading on her human person. ]
What I wish the most when it comes to love...
no subject
[Harima held his breath, listening to the girl's words intently under the thunderous roar of his heart. He wasn't mindful of the Meowstick at all....
But, as Luna circles around, she may encounter a Drowzee meditating quietly behind the bush.]
no subject
Usagi just hums thoughtfully, because matters of the heart is serious! ] You know, I never really thought about it!
[ She laughs sheepishly and rubs the back of her head. ] I just want a guy who loves me flaws and all!
no subject
--Instead of words, the branches of the bush shuddered violently in reply. Harima couldn't find a way to make his mouth work.
Meanwhile, the Drowzee opened an eye and watched Luna silently for a beat, before heaving a sigh and closing that eye once more.
"The answer you seek isn't here, small one," he murmured in a barely audible rumble before seemingly returning to his meditation.]
no subject
Oh, and he can't be jerk! He has to be really nice and kind and caring as well as handsome but with a little bit of mystery to him. I mean, who doesn't like a good mystery once in awhile, right?
[ Just talking about that gets Usagi to laugh in embarrassment, but more because she's trying to imagine this perfect guy she's making up on the spot.
Luna just makes thoughtful noise as the Drowzee responds to her quiet watching of him, but doesn't seem to move as she just responds back to him as softly.
"I do believe it is." Her tail flicks back and forth behind her as she glances at Harima's back before turning her attention back to the Drowzee. "I'm not here to fight you, but, I need to make sure your human has no ill intentions towards my own." Whether or not all the pokemon in her group actually listened was another story. But, she wanted amicable communications before anything else. ]
no subject
"...He is a fool," the Drowzee admitted, "and I know you will worry regardless of what is said, but you have my word that Kenji bears no ill-intent toward your friend."
...Indeed, as Luna would note, Harima was almost literally floored by Usagi's words. While he would do all of those things....
....He was still kind of a jerk.]
no subject
The cat like pokemon is still wary, as he had assumed, but, she is content enough with the answer. "Did you two come in from the overcast world? Usagi has ... explained... non stop about it." By explain, she means complain, but that wasn't necessary to explain... ]
I mean, whoever it is that I end up with will be perfect no matter what! I would just like to find him sooner than later.
[ Usagi pulls her legs underneath her and sits down in front of the bush, eyes glittering excitedly. ] Can I wish for that?
no subject
...The words were helpful. There was something about the young man that made it difficult for the Drowzee to get a proper reading on him.
Not that getting a proper reading was necessary most of the time.
Harima swallowed the ball that had formed in his throat when he was faced with Usagi's honest, heartfelt wish, and tried to find words that he could use in this kind of situation. The branches tremored faintly...]
You can, but there is no reason
[He paused, taking a breath to steel himself.]
A girl like you will always find someone like that.
no subject
You really think so? That's really nice of you to say!
[ And it was. It's the kind of thing that Usagi liked to hear once in awhile... even if it was from a(n assumed magical bush of love) random bush in the wild. ]
Only, I haven't found someone like that yet because all the guys I've met are jerks!
[ That happy expression? Quickly changes to a huff and an angry pout. ]
no subject
The word was like a bullet through Harima's heart, shot from the very hands of the girl he would jump in front of a Gengar (again) for. He stilled, staring at the girl from the safety of his hiding spot with obvious shock.
If the color seemed to drain from the depths of his very soul, it wasn't your imagination.
Huffing in exasperation, the Drowzee bid a quick farewell to Luna and, with more rustling branches, squeezed in close with the strange human with the gruff speech patterns that he had somehow befriended. By the Savior....]
no subject
It's then that she decides that she's going to just plop herself onto the ground, with her back on the grass so she can look up at the sky from through the trees. ]
Well, okay, they're not all jerks. But, it seems like all the people I've met recently are.
no subject
That girl must have had buns for brains. She really knew how to talk too much...
The Drowzee, ever the pragmatist, did the only thing that was sensible:
He reached out and yanked Harima's ponytail.
...
The resultant yelp from the bush-- totally breaking character, by the way-- should have been enough to stop Usagi's rambling in it's place.]
