Leo's thread

[You find yourself in a very spacious library. The ceiling is very high, you can't even see to the other side of the place, and it looks like it's supposed to be very grand—besides all of the mess. None of the books are organized, half of them are on the floor or strewn about on study desks, and the other half are haphazardly tossed on the shelves. There are splotches of different colors over the ugly yellow wallpaper, like someone tried to repaint a million different times and gave up halfway through.

The entire left half of the library is covered in a window, showing that the sun has just set. There's a murky forest outside that doesn't look too inviting. Only half of the candles inside of the library have been lit, but there are plenty of obnoxious floating golden lights drifting around that you can still see alright.

There are other people there, but they're a little off. Some of them don't have faces or look like they're fading away into nothing. But they don't seem to be paying you any mind, so you're free to explore.]

[IT'S A DREAM AND THEREFORE DOESN'T HURT wait no it does.]

If I wake up with bruises, it's all your fault.

[gavehimhead]

That would be the point, yes. It's better if you just give up.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

Not a chance!

[gavehimhead]

...You're cheating, the armor is helping you.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

How is it cheating if you put it on me in the first place?

[gavehimhead]

I didn't put it on you, you were already in it.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

It's your dream.

[gavehimhead]

I'm not dreaming...

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

You are. It's not a bad dream.

[gavehimhead]

[looks around]

This is a terrible dream.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

What's wrong with it?

[gavehimhead]

There are dead people in the corners and books with very bad things in them and it's dark. And the wallpaper is ugly. And the stupid lights are everywhere.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

It's you. That's not a bad thing at all.

[gavehimhead]

It's still weird and ugly.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

No, it isn't. It's beautiful. You're just focusing on the wrong things.

[gavehimhead]

Fine, point out the right things.

[kepthishead.livejournal.com]

It's mysterious. Like ... like one of those adventures where it looks uninviting but really it's not.
