Lunamor Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 54 minutes ago, Weaver of Lies said: Edgar wasn’t moving. Blood was seeping through the bandages again, the wounds having reopened from his movement. Quote Is he unconscious? 45 minutes ago, The Aspiring Archivist said: Terrance turned to her. "Jenny? What is it?" Terrance wasn't sure he could do anything about that. Jenny heard talking. She couldn’t understand it, but it probably didn’t matter. It wasn’t like she could do anything about whatever people were saying. ”Don’t wake.” She mustered up every last scrap of power she had left, and magically put herself to sleep. She would be stronger in her dreams, if this stunt didn’t destroy her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunamor Posted April 26 Report Share Posted April 26 22 minutes ago, Weaver of Lies said: Jenny was faint. Why was she faint? And why was everything so dark? Where was she? She wasn’t sure if she was in pain or not. There wasn’t enough of her left for that. Maybe she was asleep. Sometimes her dreams were weird. They hadn’t been like this before. But this was still so familiar, somehow. There was a familiar presence, too. Odd. It seemed scary. Terrifying, actually. She couldn’t see it, but she knew that it was bad. She needed to run. She needed to get away, go somewhere else. Reaching out, she could faintly feel something familiar. It felt safe. She shattered the ground beneath her and fell into the other place. Jenny landed in Ed’s dream. She looked transparent, like a ghost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenny landed in Ed’s dream. She looked transparent, like a ghost. Edgar was in a small house, sitting on a bed, face streaked with tears. He was shaking uncontrollably, and his neck was slightly red. ”J…J…Jenny?” he sputtered. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Introducing yourself was always a good first step when you met someone new. ”Hello! I’m... huh. I don’t know my name.” She looked mildly puzzled for a moment. “You said Jenny? That must be me! I like that name. What’s your name?” She stuck her hand out for a handshake, smiling brightly.

She looked confused. ”Are you alright? I-“ She flickered again, her hand almost fading away from within the guy’s, but it was more like a blink than a disappearance. He seemed to help keep her anchored there. ”Oh, that’s not good.” She then squinted to inspect the guy in front of her, apparently having forgotten her worry immediately. “You look familiar. Have we met?” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She couldn’t recall knowing anyone before, though. She couldn’t remember anything about her past. Maybe she didn’t have a past. But Edgar said they knew each other, and he didn’t seem like a liar.

Briefly, the serene expression on her face flashed to terror then back. ”How’d we meet?” Perhaps she could trigger a memory based on some details of her past. Not knowing much about yourself wasn’t very fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
