Game 160
Who: Everyone
Where: Arena
When: Day 268, early morning
What: Haunted Game

[Childish giggling--is it male? Female? It’s impossible to tell--surrounds every blank as they heed today’s call. It’s barely audible, able to easily be ignored. But it is ever present. In the arena on the throne sits Haunted’s statue, headless as ever. Even without facial features she gives off the sense of being very pleased with herself.

Heavy mist covers the floor, giving off a strong sickly sweet scent. The smaller among the blanks may already feel themselves starting to grow woozy from its influences.]

	Perhaps worse. Hearts may have pleasant regions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's true... though whatever she did last time, what I remember people going through wasn't necessarily the worst of my usual nightmares. We could get lucky in whichever dreams we end up visiting. And there's at least less of a risk of hurting the other accidentally. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...] Edward, if that wasn't the worst of your usual nightmares, I worry about your dreams. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There's a reason I haven't been sleeping much lately. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I could try to help you with that, but it would mean staying after curfew. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...Ah? How would you do that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Fear and anxiety are mediated by chemicals in the brain. So is the urge to sleep. I don't think I could prevent you from dreaming, since it's necessary for good brain function, but maybe... if your body is calm, it will calm your dreams. I've never tried something like that, though. An ooloi would be better at it -- they tend to be naturals at soothing emotions.

Jace might be a better person to ask, also. He could go about it a different way.

	small, quiet laugh Mm, probably just being with him would be calming enough to do the trick. But for other people, that might not be a bad skill to work at, even if it would require some rulebreaking. I know I'm not the only one around here eating sleepberries every night.

	I can practice with Canis or Ursa. Also... there's no rule about sleeping in others' dorms during the day. Especially as I won't be asleep. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...Ah, that's true. You'd be able to help anyone who wouldn't mind doing that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And who didn't mind me touching them while they were asleep. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	...Right, I guess there's that too. apparently that part hadn't occurred to him (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The same problem as healing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: MINGLE clap_your_hands 2011-09-03 12:06 am UTC (link)
	Ah, right... I guess I didn't think about it, since it doesn't really bother me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: MINGLE akin2squidrats 2011-09-03 12:12 am UTC (link)
	It doesn't bother most people. Maybe because healing is in such sort supply, even when it's urgently needed. But a few people would never permit it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can probably guess who some of 'em are. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
