I have been 28 for a week and I think that's just sunk in.

If this inspires you, might I suggest getting in contact with your friendly, neighborhood blacksmith, Drew Church? Because I can tell you from experience that his work is very good and I want to buy him chicken nuggets in a romantic setting whenever I see him with something he's made.

(You're welcome for the advertising that was devoid of all sword innuendo, Drew. I'll send you my bill.)

Sixteen more days. Baby, slow down.

Everyone should enjoy this hair, though. Those Winters genes.

FILTERED TO CATY

I have so many idea for holiday onesies. Do you have time to meet up this week?

Also, if I were considering reaching out to the others to let them know about Cersei... do you think it would be better to wait until after the new year? Or am I just making excuses to delay?

FILTERED TO GAME OF THRONES DREAMERS

Hi everyone,

If I haven't met you personally before, my name is Avery Perkins. I'm the director of Picasso art gallery and run an Etsy shop with Caty Norfolk.

I'm reaching out to all of you today to let you know that I've been sharing dreams with someone from Westeros as well- Cersei Lannister.

I hid it for a long time for a variety of reasons. The largest and most important reason being that I know just how much Cersei has hurt all of you. I thought that by keeping her from affecting you here, in this life, that I was protecting you from her in my own small way.

I recently came clean with Caty about everything and she encouraged me to reach out to the rest of you to let you know. I took some time to think about it, and realized that she was right. (She usually is.) So this is me letting you all know.

Please understand that I do not agree with any of the horrendous things that Cersei did within her life. If I could take them back or do anything at all to fix them, I would. So I hope you won't hold them against me, but I also understand if you'd rather not interact with me beyond this.

I think we all know by now, either first-hand or otherwise, that the dreams here in town can be [...] hard to deal with at times. The reasons for that, I'm sure, are just as numerous as there are residents of town. But- and not to sound overtly smarmy, here- one way or another, we get through it together.

In an effort to bolster that latter sentiment, some of the local veterans and I were discussing starting up a new support group. For those who didn't already know, there is an open and confidential support group for military veterans on the first Saturday of every month, out at Dunhaven Regional Airport. But given that this group is specifically for those of us who served in the military in our real lives, we [...] wanted to offer a way to branch out toward those who served in their dreams.

We're not asking anyone to out themselves, of course. And we're certainly not therapists or professionals. Rather, just [...] sympathetic and understanding ears. But if you're interested, please let me know, and we'll get something scheduled in December. (You can respond anonymously to this post, if you feel that you need to.) Anything shared at the meeting would remain strictly confidential. Having a safe space for those of us who are dreaming along such veins is the most important part.

DANIELLE

I have a very important question for you.

DREW, JAS, BENJY

Can we maybe do dinner tomorrow? We could do a fire in the backyard over here, maybe the last one before the weather gets too cold? I was thinking a cookout with hot dogs and s'mores and all of that. Obviously if that's okay with you too, Jas. And I know it's last minute, so I totally understand if your Saturdays are all booked! We can do it another time, too.

Annnnyway. Just let me know what you guys think.

MAX

Will you have lunch with me tomorrow? Or brunch, maybe? Whatever you might be available for.

We should have proms more often. I can't think of a single thing I would change about last night.

Who else had a very lazy post-prom Sunday? I spent most of my day lounging with my fiancé, playing games on my phone. 10/10 would recommend.

WHO: Max Winters & Danielle Drake
WHEN: Wednesday, August 7, 2019; Afternoon
WHERE: Magic Kingdom!
SUMMARY: Max schemes to propose to Danielle >:)
WARNINGS: None!

( I will marry the hell out of you. )

Hi, everyone! Another post so soon? Thanks to Naomi's brilliant idea, I'm going to put together a resource accessible to anyone dealing with the Dreams that essentially just lists who is being dreamed of and any other pertinent details you might think need to be included for others to identify that they're at least sharing dreams about the world even if they don't know the name. For example, it might look like:

Leia Organa-Solo - From Alderaan, daughter of Breha and Bail Organa
Han Solo - Made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, from Corellia

Just leave a note here, anonymously or not, letting me know the name of who you are dreaming about and anything else you want to mention. If you want YOUR name attached to it, as well, for shared dreamers to more easily get in touch with you, let me know. Otherwise, I'll attach your Anon ID so that others can filter you anonymously!

This is totally optional, but I hope you'll consider doing it, at least anonymously!

WHO: Max and Danielle
WHEN: Saturday, July 6, 2019; Early Evening
WHERE: Danielle’s apartment
SUMMARY: Max has been talking to a therapist but realizes he really needs to talk to his girlfriend
WARNINGS: Mentions of loss, GoT spoilers, grief

( It was the easiest promise he'd ever made. )

THEO, ARIA, LYLA, RHYS, KIERA

I need someone to talk me through something that's been on my mind since before this latest round of memories even became a thing. I need to know if I'm just being impulsive, or if it's a bad idea, because it really doesn't feel like a rash, or bad idea. It feels right. But I also know that I'm still in a weird place mentally so I could just really use a second opinion before I do something that isn't received well.

And that was all very vague and probably ominous, I realize. Basically, I want to ask Danielle to marry me. I just know that, whatever obstacles we still need to get through, it's easier when I'm getting through them with her. I don't want to wait until everything's perfect because nothing will ever be perfect. That's not life. I want to do this messy, imperfect, unpredictable life by her side.

So yeah. There it is. What do you think?

FRIENDS & FAMILY

This might be a bit belated, but I didn't really want to say anything until I knew that things were going to for sure happen. When Theresa and I first bought this place, it was with the intent that it would be a starter home. Any of you that have been over here know it's not the biggest of houses and with Zoe getting older and the dog not getting any smaller, we're outgrowing it. We probably actually outgrew it a few years ago, truth be told but I.

Anyway, all that to say that I've spent the summer working with a realtor and we found a place. My offer was accepted last night and Zoe has already picked out her bedroom, so we're as good as moved in. I'm going to hang onto the current house and rent it for a while, but we're hoping to close by the end of August. The place is over on Westover, so close to the Winters and the rest of the Wolfes. I liked growing up over there, so it seems fitting for Zoe to do the same. Plus, it will make it easier for Mom to do her surprise visits, which I'm sure she'll appreciate. It's a weird time of year to be doing this with school starting up and [...] everything else, but that's how it works out sometimes.

Anyway. Just wanted to let you guys know that I'll be hiring skilled box carriers in the near future. Can't promise the pay is great, though.

I am so tired.

As much as I love winter (such a cliche for so many reasons), I am all about it officially being summer. ☀️

MAX & LYLLIA

Just so you both know, I'm going camping this weekend. I don't know what reception is going to look like, but I will have my phone and stuff.

Also, I remember everything now.

[KIERA AND NIALL]

I really appreciate that you two have given up so much of the last couple of weeks to check in and care for me and bring me into your homes when I needed you the most. So I just wanted to say again that I love you both, and you were just what I needed tonight.

[MAX]
