Union?

[It was a rare day when Waver Velvet addressed the public of Union as a whole, but this day something about him seemed off. He seemed more bothered, more irritable than normal-- not that the little Nincada that was sitting on his head seemed to care. It drummed it's little feet happily on Waver's head, glad to be there for it's trainer in this strange time.

Heaving a sigh, Waver continued:]

Let's take a poll. Who here has been having weird dreams for the last couple of days? I need to know for academic reasons.

[...And, that was all. Waver scratched his cheek, feeling awkward and embarrassed about this entire problem that he was having.]

Don't worry about when you reply. I don't think I'll be getting to sleep any time soon.

[And, with that, the feed abruptly shut off.

Respond, Union?]

I know.

I'm not superstitious? But this has to be more than coincidence. There's no way people can just start having bad dreams for no reason-- that's why I'm trying to collect details.

[sparrowfeathered]

Yeah.

Besides... what's logical feels like it changed. Gods walking the earth and all kinda rewrites the rules, y'know?

[untalented]

It does...but I like to think the fundamentals are still the same. The gods are strong, but they can't just go rewrite scientific law on a whim.

[sparrowfeathered]

...they can't, right? That's a thing we've confirmed, not a thing we kinda hope is true?

[untalented]

It's a hypothesis based on what I've observed all ready.

[But, he's only been at this for a year...]

Though, that doesn't mean much. Anything's possible, for what good it's worth.

[sparrowfeathered]

I'll take being sure they can't break reality like an egg.

[She sighs. Even if he's not... totally sure of that.]

[untalented]

I'm sure they wouldn't, even if they could. They've left us alone for five hundred years, after all-- and I don't think they would start dictating the way the world's supposed to flow now of all times.
