DREAM BUBBLE SHENANIGANS (all HS muses are welcome/separate threads please!)

[doesthewindything]

It so happens John's having a dream. And it's likely that someone else is in there having the same dream.

It's a simple dream, really. John's just re-enacting one of those scenes from Con Air with the bunny. LIKE KARKAT SAW THAT ONE TIME What's he giving the bunny to? Probably you, or just putting it on the bed. He's just being weird.

[Hey, dude. Guess who's here and bringing sexy back.

Okay no, he's just staring at you incredulously because, what the fuck is this and why is it happening.] Seriously? Of all the things you can dream, it's some shitty scene from Con Air? Jegus christ, can you stop having a Nic Cage boner for a second of your life?

[fabricates]

Vriska arched a brow, watching from her perch on the tree branch outside his window. He was such a dork, even when no one was watching.

But this is it, the face to face meeting she's been preparing for since the plan for the Scratch came around. She's been holding off because she knows he won't recognize her the way she recognizes him. What if she freaks him out? Well, she can't sit here forever. So she flits off her branch, leaning in his window.

"Egbert, no matter how many times you do that you will never be able to replicate that rugged human from your movie."

[doesthewindything]

oh hi dave! what are you doing in my dream
also what's wrong with re-enacting one of my favorite movies?

[knightime]

Dream bubble shit dude. I now know everything you ever dream about. I watch you while you sleep. Quite fucking literally.

[You can't see the eye roll.] Did we forget the part where Con Air was a shitty as fuck movie?

[doesthewindything]

oh
well that's kind of creepy but whatever
besides this scene was still really awesome and you did give me the bunny

[doesthewindything]

"I can try, at least!" Though that voice is very unfamiliar. John turns around and looks at the girl at his window. "Wait, I've never seen you before. Who are you?"

[fabricates]

"You're always going to fail at it, you really shouldn't even try."

She knows it was coming, the he wouldn't recognize her. But it still kind of hurts her in some silly way that she doesn't really understand.

"John, I'm hurt. You don't even recognize the troll responsible for all of your success?"

[godseer]

Rose was drifting through the bubble rather aimlessly. Familiar and unfamiliar memories erected themselves around her as she traveled, then collapsed just as quickly. But eventually the scene with John resolved itself. Aha.

"Hello, John. May I ask why you choose snowmen as your benefactor of choice for this particular re-enactment?"

[knightime]

That was the point. I'm glad to see my creepy irony is still intact.

I gave you the bunny out of (sincere) irony. It was a shitty movie and all of it was shitty.

[doesthewindything]

"Well, there weren't really any other people around to re-enact it with..." And then he saw Rose. Well, the voice at least was familiar, but the god tier clothing he still hadn't quite gotten used to yet. So a bit of shock crosses his expression as he sees her. "When did you get here, Rose?"

[doesthewindything]

i'm just saying
might as well use it for something i guess
it's a dream anyway

[doesthewindything]

"Troll? I don't think I've ever met any of you trolls." Come to think of it, she didn't look like a human. So she must be a troll indeed. "You're responsible for my success? What success?" Clueless is his middle name, but he really doesn't remember anyone being solely responsible for his success.

[godseer]

She shrugs. "I've been around for quite some time. It's a little difficult to keep track around here. Years become moments rather quickly."

She settled to the ground. "Incidentally, these could use some improvements. Perhaps a tentacle or two?"

[fabricates]

"Of course you haven't. Not yet anyway. But you're going to meet-" Oh right, she died. This was the only way he was going to get to see her. There was no Scratch, not for her anyway. But she can't tell John that. "You'll meet us eventually."

Her eyes search his face, before she rolls them. "Your God Tier success. Helloooooooo, did you fall and hit your head or are you naturally this oblivious?"

[knightime]

Jegus, couldn't you make your dream a little more interesting? Like add in Liv whatshername or whatever the fuck it is. Like you could totally be making out with her in your dream. Not that I would advise that, because wow, that would be all sorts of fucking creepy.

[doesthewindything]

Naturally perhaps. As if it suddenly dawned on him that she was right, he nodded. "Oh, right! My God Tier." Although currently he wasn't as used to being God Tier yet as he'd like to be. "So that means you're... Vriska?"

[doesthewindything]

um that's probably why I didn't add liv tyler to my dream
that's all kinds of weird and creepy
seriously why would you even suggest that

[knightime]

You can't make me honestly believe you're as clean as you say you are.

No little dark secrets that only the derpy Egbert knows? Because I would hate to come across the realization you might be more innocent then I thought you were.

[fabricates]

"Finally! Way to insult the girl who's done so much for you." She grins at him, showing rows of razor sharp teeth with the gesture.

"So are you going to invite me in or do I have to stay outside like this?? You're such a rude host, John!"

[doesthewindything]

well okay sure i'd like to have her in my dream
but i guess dream bubbles don't work like that? or maybe they do
i dont know

[astrometry]

John, why are you giving her the bunny. She has no need for these things! She has already had one in her lifetime!

"John, I am pretty sure that you are being incredibly silly."

[doesthewindything]

"Oh! Sorry! Come in, I guess." Wow, yeah that was definitely Vriska. Acted just like her.

[doesthewindything]

"I think we can do without the tentacles, haha." Her obsession with tentacles kind of unnerved John sometimes, but this was still one of his best friends. "You've been here for a long time? It felt like I just entered not too long ago."

[doesthewindything]

"I'm just re-enacting the scene from Con Air," protested John. But he was amused too. "Besides, it's fun to do that in a dream bubble."

[godseer]

"Time moves differently in the outer rings. As does space." She points out two fiery red tornadoes in the distance. They resemble almost exactly the ones that were attacking her house not too long ago. "It's entirely possible that you've been here for several hours already without knowing it."

[astrometry]

"Okay, well I guess I'll take a bunny then! Who am I, the daughter?"

[fabricates]

She slipped through the window, wings disappearing so as not to get caught on the frame. She looked around, despite having seen the room before from watching his timeline. Still, it was different when she was actually standing in it. She hadn't thought she'd get the chance, being in another universe and all.

"What a boring respiteblock!"

[knightime]

Dream bubbles are what they fucking sound like.

They're dreams in bubble form. Just in the land of shitty sessions and bullshit shenanigans, we can apparently go into them and harass said dreamer.
