1st Pounce

[trollplayer.livejournal.com]

[...It really hasn't been all that long since she's had a regular dream, but it feels like it's been forever. Derse was destroyed, after all, so by all right she shouldn't even be dreaming right now.

But that's okay. Given what's been happening lately, dreams that shouldn't be are pretty low on the list of weird stuff.

In her dream, Nepeta is the huntress. It's her. She's back in the Land of Little Cubes and Tea, where the ground is made of sugar cubes and waterfalls are made of every sort of tea imaginable. She's crouched behind a small hill of sugar cubes, watching for prey.

And should she see any living creature at all, she will pounce. Will you see her, green and gray against the white of the sugar cubes, and approach her from behind - or will she tackle you to the ground instead?]

You don't stay dead in dreams. [ But she doesn't want to think on that too much, so she looks around to the waterfalls. ] Chamomile, chamomile ...

Ah! Is it that one? [ She starts walking in that waterfall's direction.

You don't? But I'm purrty sure that's how it worked for efurryone else...

[Nepeta follows close behind her.]

Hmm, well, not for me. [ She shrugs lightly; it's dream logic, so maybe "AC" experiences it differently. At the waterfall she leans over, examining its descent. ] Okay... Got any cups?

[ ooc: and a slightly silly question - would Nepeta dream of these waterfalls as being hot to touch, or is it more lukewarm or "oh whatever heat doesn't matter in dreams"? ]

[Nepeta roots around through the sugar cubes for a few seconds and finds a cute pink teacup, which she hands over.]

Here's one!

[ooc: She'd probably dream them up as the purrfect temperature to drink, so not too hot, but definitely warm.]

And what a nice one it is. [ She holds the cup to the waterfall to fill it, looking aside to see if "AC" has her own or if she should hand hers over. The whole point is waking her up, after all. ]
