Julian and Alex
If it was a nightmare, Julian wasn't alone. Whether that was for the best or not was yet to be determined. Alex woke in the room next to where Julian was, alone. Being a veteran, Alex didn't hesitate to rise and investigate his surroundings.
"Is anybody here?" he asked. He wished he had a weapon, but the most defensive thing he could find was a metal ruler. He frowned, realizing he wasn't actually a veteran. That was his dream self. Well. At least his dream history seemed like it might be useful right about now.
"Hello?" he called out, poking his head into the room where Julian was.
