Exploration Event: Neverwere

[lifeaftr_mods]

EXPLORATION EVENT: NEVERWERE

Who: Everyone!
What: Your wildest dreams come true!
When: May 15th to May 18th
Where: Ziziphus, those still on Ensō...and Mu
Warnings: Mark as needed!

Then Know That My Life Was Just a Killer Dream
You can find most of the information you need in the OOC info post! In the meantime, feel free to use this log as a catch-all for your dream worlds, as well as detailing your efforts to free one another. Whether they're on Ziziphus or Ensō at the time of the dreams' capture, your character is free to access as many dreams as you like, as the interlocking mental landscape allows for that sort of crossing over apropos of nothing. And time, of course, is very fluid in dreams - many days, months, and years can transpire in a matter of mere minutes.

Will you fight your way free from Ziziphus's vines or Mu's thrall, or are you content to die in your sleep?

Remember to let us know if your character dies during this event!

It'll be you and it'll be me. [He stares at Connor the way he does sometimes. Like if he all but blinks he will disappear, like Shion is trying to memorise everything about him. Here, with just the two of them. That's all that it needs to be. They don't get much studying done but here, when he is with Connor.

It's like the rest of the world falls away. Nothing else matters, not Connor's looming tests, nothing.]

I'm always shocked that someone like you even likes me. [It's a murmer, Connor is older, way more talented and generally cooler than Shion and sometimes it's hard to fight the urge to write a whole list of all the reasons Connor shouldn't let him go, to convince him he's good enough.]

[yourattention]

I mean - [Connor laughs, touching their foreheads together.] Babe, I'll give you ten thousand reasons to not let me go.

[Because - because Shion sees him for him and only him and that's. That's all Connor's wanted for longer than Shion could possibly know.]

So it can be us and only us.

[savedbyasong]

[And only us. He rests his forhead on Con's. Often it was so... Everyone was worried about Con still and so was Shion but he tried his best to not be, not when he was around Con anyways. Because that was then and if they lived in the past they would miss all of this right now.

So what came before didn't count anymore or matter, not at all.]

We can try that.

[It's not so impossible.]

[yourattention]

Nobody else but the two of us here.

[In someone else's mouth, it could be an innuendo. When Connor says it, it's more like a plea. Jared is always making fun of him for consistently not making a move, but he just -

Shion believes in him. Shion says that it's possible to have everything he thought he never would.]

You always just make the whole world disappear until you're the only one I still know how to see.

[He should kiss Shion, but he doesn't. There's a reason why he's not supposed to, but it's slipping his mind.]

[savedbyasong]

[There's a moment where it's them and only them, Shion's forhead pressed against Connor's where he felt he should lean forwards and kiss him. But something stops him. He shouldn't, it would be wrong.

Why would it be wrong to kiss his boyfriend? The moment passes, though Shion continues to stare into Con's eyes, red meeting blue. It didn't matter really, if there was a reason or not. This was all that they needed it to be.

Here, them. The rest of the world falling away around them.]

It's only us.
