Accidental voice-post
[There is silence for about fifteen, twenty seconds, and then Dan starts muttering.]

[Inaudible muttering]

Yibambe yibambe yibambe yibambe

[this trails off into more quiet mumbling for about half a minute or so]

...nothing but blood and dust...

...half... [then there is a clicking sound, like Dan is clicking his fingers]

[silence again, followed by a groan before the audio clicks off]

	Yeah. I’ve had more than a few nights like that myself. Take care of yourself. Take an aspirin or something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm okay, yeah. I spoke to Amelia. She seems nice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2018-07-18 03:45 pm UTC (link)
	She is. I am not sure if she knows what she does to us though. She's just a little girl. I think she means well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dr_sleep 2018-07-18 06:10 pm UTC (link)
	She explained things. Says I'm to think of this as a vacation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A vacation? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dr_sleep 2018-07-18 06:18 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. Being here. I'm not good at vacations. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2018-07-18 08:30 pm UTC (link)
	It's not vacation if it helps. It's your life now and it can be a good life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dr_sleep 2018-07-18 08:55 pm UTC (link)
	That's... not what I was told. I'm here until I get sent back, and no time will have passed back home. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	daddyissues_ 2018-07-18 09:04 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know. It's not what I've been told. She might just want to make you feel better. ~~Or the rules have changed.~~ (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I do remember bits of what I dreamt but I didn't want to say anything over the radio. And I honestly have no idea what I said. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What did you see? You said an African war chant, talked about blood and dust and half. It wouldn't mean much to most, just be confusing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	TEXT dr_sleep 2018-07-18 09:49 pm UTC (link)
	A lot of people on a hill, waiting. A giant shield, and strange animals throwing themselves at it. A woman with horns talking to you and a cat? An angry man in a massive suit of armor. And then a giant with gemstones and an axe in his chest snapping his fingers. And then dust everywhere. And then I woke up with a massive headache. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[there's a longer pause before the reply] What you saw was something that really happened for some of us. Do you know how you dreamt this? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[an equally long pause follows]

~~I saw it because I Shine.~~

~~You must have been thinking about it~~

My teacher called it the Shining. I used to do this sort of thing a lot more when I was a kid; this is the first time it's happened for a few years.

I'm sorry for what you went through and I'm sorry for bringing it up again. I won't keep my phone in my room any more.

	~~that's what Bruce called~~ So you...see things that we're thinking about while you sleep? It's okay. But, some of the people that you might have seen are here but haven't lived that ~~yet~~, so if you could keep it to yourself, that would be better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is anyone else hurt? I'm only asking because you mentioned blood. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	dr_sleep 2018-07-18 08:16 pm UTC (link)
	Not that I know of. I talk in my sleep, and I guess my phone thought everyone should hear it. I'm sorry to bother you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	proud_miserable 2018-07-18 08:33 pm UTC (link)
	It's no bother. I'm glad you're okay. (Reply to this) (Parent)
