[Valdis woke in a panic, to emotions not her own and she wondered briefly if this was what X had felt once the shock had worn off. But she didn't make any moves until she was sure of herself again, taking time to pick apart the dream and remove herself from it.

That hadn't been easy. The turmoil of the crew, the black, oily shadows that twisted with their own life. Far too reminiscent of darker things. Had some creature from the Death Plane managed to reach through a breach? And if so, was this some kind of warning? As someone who could not dream without some power at work, she had long since stopped discounting them.

It was still dark outside when she turned on her video stream.]

Has anyone else had strange visions tonight?

[Her voice is steady, more certain than she feels, but Valdis refuses to allow dread to overwhelm her.]

I tried to sketch what I remember, but it's more the feeling of it that I can grasp. A sense of fear and...a black, oiled shadow that seems to move on its own.

[It was that oily shadow that bothered her the most.]

And a name...Nerrin.

Huh. What happened then?

[redlightgreenlight]

A shared vision...only those brought here from the Dreaming.

[As far as she knew]

It wasn't pleasant either.

[eyeinfusion]

So...nothing to worry about, then?

[Or...wait.] Unless something happened to them? [The Dreamfolk that got the dreams last time, that is.]

A dream this ominous doesn't mean nothing, right...

[redlightgreenlight]

Aside from being a little traumatized by the vision, they were fine.

[As to whether or not it meant anything...]

Normally I would say nightmares don't mean much, but some of us had the exact same ones. There is something important here.

[eyeinfusion]

I hope everyone's fine this time, too.

[Sometimes weird dreams don't not mean anything, much less shared dreams.]

Guess there's nothing we can do now, huh? [Unless there's someone among the Dreamfolk who can manipulate dreams or something, but he assumes that someone like that would have spoken up by now.]

[redlightgreenlight]

Me too.

[Everyone seemed to be alright this time.]

There are some things we can do, but I'm afraid we cannot act until more information comes to light.

[eyeinfusion]

Yeah... Sometimes there's just a wait.

[Though—] Is that the reason for the post? More information?

[Well—obviously. But he's talking more from an emotional level. Sometimes it's hard to just wait.]

[redlightgreenlight]

Yes.

[Emotional responses were rarely helpful and she'd been rather successful at suppressing them]
