There is hope. Help is coming, yet the nightmares still come. Why? I should be estactic and yet i'm still exhausted and the fear still plagues me. Why? Nex thought as she lay in bed and soon fell asleep. Another nightmare similar to the last. She awakes when the morning sunlight creeps in to her room and rests upon her. She sighs as she doesn't bother to change and decides to roam the society before Maria comes.

((Excellent!))

Slapped out of sleep, Lewis only just managed to stifle his reflexes in time. He barely caught what Nex said, but he did hear Maria distinctly.

"Permuto interrupto, as it were," he echoed.

Nex sighed as she sat down beside Lewis. "I have to be the one."

"WHAT?!" Lizzy cried. "Nex you can't! You could die!"

"If it's so Dreamer can have a better life than so be it" Nex said standing.

"Hang on we need to think this over thoroughly" Maria said.

"I'm doing it and nothing you say can change my mind" Nex said to Maria. 'I'm meant to protect her, i only serve Dreamer' She recalled from years ago, from the sorcerer that separated them.

"I need to figure out the best way to do it so you get some rest you look awful" Maria said.

"I can't sleep" Nex muttered drawing in a breath before storming out.

"Lewis follow her and help her! I'm going to stay to help Maria" Lizzy said getting up and grabbing one of her sister's books.

He hoisted himself up stiffly and followed Nex down the hall.

((Given their difference in speeds, Nex will likely get wherever she's going before Weir can catch up to her.))

Lewis followed, eventually catching up to her once she'd settled. He remained standing, afraid that to sit would be to sleep.

"Nex," he said calmly. He stifled a yawn.

Nex sighed to tired to keep it in. "Sure, what else do i have to loose?" She said. "They are all the same thing, over and over and over again." And she explained the nightmares about the society catching on fire and she not even being able to do anything to save the people she cared for.

He listened, taking it all in. When she had finished, he mulled it over before speaking.

"It sounds like you're worried about people you care for coming to harm because of you, be it directly or indirectly. It's perfectly natural to fear losing or hurting someone you care about, Nex. It shows a perfectly healthy, human attachment to others. It's actually rather a good sign," he said with encouragement. Then another thought occurred to him, and his expression shifted to one of not just concern but alarm. He worked to cover it, but wasn't nearly as quick about it as he would've been, had he been fully rested.

"Hah, well, that's a relief," he breathed out, the words half sigh, half laughter. "Had me worried the Society was going to burn, for a moment there." He took in a breath and let it out, calming down. "If that's the case, the nightmares likely simply have a psychological issue at their core, a problem your brain is working on solving while you sleep but which it hasn't yet found a solution to."

"Typically, I'd recommend a brief course of talk therapy, combined with dream analysis, if you really want to get to the bottom of it," he explained, "but I don't wish to foist anything upon you if you don't want it. In which case, you'd probably be better off with a soporific."

"How can I be an effective helper if I don't know all the factors? You said your work life and your worries bring you bad dreams. You told me not to ask about your work on penalty of death by one of your chakrams. I'd be foolish to press the issue with someone whose name in Latin quite literally means 'slaughter', wielding weapons most often depicted with a Hindu god who mows down his enemies in an eyeblink. To top it all off, you're a Hyde, and a werecreature, and have a notoriously short temper. Whereas I am simply a man, fully--boringly human, and quite easy to kill." He shook his head. "I can't help if you won't let me in, Nex."

"That's what i'm trying to do!" She yelled finally loosing her cool tears in her eyes. "I hate being considered the monster. It's all his fault! That man!" She said head in her hands now as she fell to the ground. Tears seemed to be streaming down her face. "Do you know what it feels like to practically smell the fear off of people? To smell the hatred? It feels horrible!"

"The one that separated me and Dreamer. It was during the war" Nex started swallowing her tears. "He trained me and Dreamer how to fight and we had to fight a way through to get the Dimensional portal back. He gave us our powers. Trained me to live for Dreamer, protect her, that i was nothing. A parasite infecting my host." Nex said sitting up.

"Hm," contemplated Lewis. "I suppose the next best thing would be to simply get the Rose off, as everyone's trying to do. But I also suspect Dreamer wouldn't want you putting yourself in harm's way for her." He thought a moment, then had the flash of an idea. "You say the Rose of Repression limits powers. And that a buildup of too much emotion means death to those around her," he stated, seeking confirmation that he indeed had all the facts straight. "Anything else I should know about it, besides the fact that it prevents the two of you from joining (not that you'd wish to)?"

"Why not?" he asked with an easy, breezy air of nonchalance. "It's the perfect solution. Maria's going to try to destroy it, but if that doesn't work, I'm the ideal candidate. I've no powers to lose. No one who's been separated from me. And my skill at repression would put this dimension's Dr. Henry Jekyll to shame." A confident smile graced his lips as he regarded her. "If you don't believe me, simply ask me what my natural reflex--one I stifled, by the by--would have been when you woke me earlier."

"Does it matter?" he shrugged. "I doubt anyone else could safely volunteer. Say something goes wrong, and it's transferred to you. Let's be honest: You lose your temper on a regular basis. Think how many people would die if you bore the Rose. Heaven forbid it should happen when you're around Dreamer. You don't want to be responsible for her death. Lizzy isn't a good choice for reasons of both temperament and magic. And, while Maria might be able to keep herself in check, she'd lose her powers--poor payment indeed for willingly helping with a sister's friend's problem." He shook his head. "No, there's nothing else for it, if we want to stem the damage at all."

Lewis had asked Maria if there was anything else the Rose of Repression did or might do, aside from what Nex had already told him. She was just answering him when Nex entered.

((Lewis figured it'd be good to have a sorcerer's perspective, too, just to make sure he 100% knows what he's in for. If Maria has nothing to add, please have her say as much.))

Weir took off his blue waistcoat and set it at the opposite end of the room for safekeeping, just in case the energies involved got violent. The affair at the tavern some nights past had already destroyed his brown one; he didn't wish to lose another.

He rejoined the group and stood at the ready.

The door opened and Isabella came into the library. Seeing what was going on she stopped dead. Her eyes widened as she took in the thorns sticking out of Dreamer's hands. "Good grief.

Isabella glanced back over her shoulder still trying to get a look at what Maria is up to. Once out of the room she let herself speak, words tumbled over each other. "Sorry, I didn't know you were working in here, you left the door open. - Well. So you weren't joking the other day about having magical powers. Very pleased to meet you. What's the matter?"

By the way, please bear time zones in mind. A brief non-progressing response like that may be fine if the other player can get straight back and ask another, but that posting of yours happened long after I'd gone to bed - I'm in GMT - and when you're only likely to get a couple of exchanges in a day, it means that by the time everybody else wants to start off again the other player's still got no further. )

Lewis was caught off guard by Isabella's sudden appearance, but managed not to move from where he was standing; not wishing to bollix the ritual, he didn't say anything, either. But he did look as if he wanted to give some manner of explanation to Isabella; his brows tilted up at the center apologetically, and there was the barest hint of a regretful shrug.

Dreamer stood up shakily and began to remove the bandages slowly but surely in to there was a pile on the floor. Her white hair fell to her waist and she was looking at Maria and Nex. She then flicked her hand and a spear appeared. She smiled tears in her eyes and she turned and tackle hugged Weir crying tears of joy. Nex however soon fell. "GAAHHH!" She cried out her chest glowing.

Is it possible for more than one person to get in on a story? well, of course it is possible, look at Forgiveness, but people seem to be getting cross about that and the difficulty of keeping up with it, so I'm not sure if it's really supposed to happen or not.)

((I don't see why not. Of course, this isn't my discussion/thread, so I'd run it past Miss-Dreamerkat first, but I for one would welcome you. :-) ))

Yeah! I've taken apart in three stories at once before on this site! More than one storyline can happen on the same thread. Go ahead! Welcome!)

((Alternatively, you could potentially just join in! There's a magic ritual about to go down; maybe Isabella wanders by?))
