[home sweet home] returning to your world ; meme

You wake up in your bed, maybe. Somewhere. Somewhere you know.

Familiar scents fill your nose, the scents of home. You get up and look around and you come to a stunning, breath-taking (and sickening?) realization. You're home again. Somehow, just now, you were whisked away from that strange place you were, for however long you lived there, with how many people you came to know, and plunked down in your home, your own world. The bubble popped and now you're left wondering... was that even real? Could it have been?

What do you do now?

The phone's ringing. Maybe you should answer that.

How To Play

- Comment to the thread with your character. It will be their "world" they've returned to.
- Other people comment to them, reconnecting or awakening next to them in that home world.
- The where, when, setting & that sort of thing are up to you!
- Freak out, panic, try to figure what to do next.

Bonus:

- Work in a time difference, Lake House style!
- Is something off about this home world? Is it even really yours?

	[She likes this. No, she needs this. It's not making her happy so much as it's making her feel whole instead of pulled apart at the seams.] ...You still look tired. [She noticed.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Whole is good. Sometimes whole is as good as it gets.] I'm fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Liar. [Tiny nuzzle. Maybe she was just moving.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-31 08:43 pm UTC (link)
	I've been worse. [Because that makes it alright.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Her fingers move just a little over his back.] You thought I was going to jump? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-31 08:53 pm UTC (link)
	No. [Pause.] ...I didn't know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-31 08:56 pm UTC (link)
	I've fought too hard to give up now. [Even if she was feeling as close to hopeless as she has in a long time.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-31 09:07 pm UTC (link)
	Good. It just... you scared me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-31 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	I don't feel like myself. [Which has deeper meaning than the usual.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-31 09:32 pm UTC (link)
	I know. [And this would be him tightening the embrace. It's about all he can do.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-05-31 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	But I wouldn't do that. [Not...directly. Self destructive, maybe. Full on suicidal, no.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-31 09:53 pm UTC (link)
	[He nods against her, not entirely capable of taking that in. There are no guarantees, and although he never saw her as the suicidal type... there really isn't a type. It's a matter of breaking points, and he's seen the strongest of men crumble under too much pressure. He can't afford to take it for granted that she won't.] You better not.

	[She just nods.] Couch? [This is more for him. Wanting him to rest.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-05-31 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	Okay. [He shifts out of the embrace but keeps a hand on her back. Couch it is.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She'll curl up on him once they are sitting. She still feels very low energy.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-06-01 12:23 am UTC (link)
	[Low energy is a good word for it. He was tired before but now, sitting comfortably with her curled up against him, it's an active struggle to stay awake. One he doesn't intend to lose, but in order for that to happen he needs to focus on something. Anything, really.] Hey. [Softly.] You're in my apartment. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-06-01 12:57 am UTC (link)
	So are you. [She isn't sleepy, but this is comfortable.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-06-01 01:12 am UTC (link)
	Yes, but that's not unusual. Seeing as it's my apartment. [More than the one in Marina.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-06-01 01:18 am UTC (link)
	Too weird? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-06-01 01:23 am UTC (link)
	No... I mean, it's weird. But not in a bad way. Beats waking up alone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-06-01 01:28 am UTC (link)
	[She looks up at him.] You're not alone. [She hasn't really been thinking about how this is on him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-06-01 02:34 am UTC (link)
	No... I'm not. [There's a bit of a smile, and then he leans down to press his lips against her forehead.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-06-01 03:02 am UTC (link)
	[She closes her eyes for a moment and then looks up at him.] You're good for me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2012-06-01 03:20 am UTC (link)
	...I am? [A measure of surprise.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-06-01 03:59 am UTC (link)
	You don't think so? [What is that surprise for?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
