Greens do it in your dreams. [OPEN TO ALL FLIGHTS]

[theshadowkissed]

Who: Rose and YOU!
What: Accidental Dreamwalking. (prose or action)
Where: IN YOUR DREAMS! Though Rose is physically in the Emerald Sanctum, hanging out near the hollowed out tree she's claimed as her own if a flightmate wants to bother her. Or Sleeping Beauty Ysera wants to reprimand her.
When: Throughout the first half of April very, very late at night.
Warnings: will update if the dreams get too weird.

Rose still hadn't adjusted herself to non-moroi timetables. To her, midnight was still mid-day thanks to the nocturnal lifestyle she'd lived practically most of her life. She was slowly working on transitioning, but it still had her awake at what most people thought were weird. Or they might if they didn't sleep for days on end like the green dragons.

It left Rose with a lot of free time in the Sanctum. She didn't like sitting about, but it was still marginally better than the jail cell she'd been in not too long before the demons had invaded her world. She wanted to get out there and destroy the demons so she could get back home. She really missed Lissa.

Getting out of the habit of slipping into her best friend's mind to comfort herself while separated from Lissa was hard to break. It wasn't as if she could go 'check up' on the Moroi princess anymore, but the act of relaxing and opening her mind up to the possibility was something that Rose automatically did when she was bored. Unfortunately, as a Dragonsworn of the Green Flight, that meant she accidentally found herself 'checking up' on people she had no bond with at all.

Ugh, Ysera had even told her about this eventually happening. Now, if only she knew who's dream she ended up in...

Now this dream seemed so much grander and different than any of the other ones Rose had ended up in. Yet, she didn't feel like something big was going on or ridiculous (because really, dreaming about an entire herd of rhino-elephants in the middle of some citadel was just plain ridiculous). The dragon was easy to spot, though, and it made her a whole lot less cautious because at least the dragon would know what happened.

Though she hadn't thought she'd be able to visit a dragon's dream...

Coming to a stop in front of the dragon's head, Rose tilted her head and furrowed her brow. It took her a moment to figure out which dragon this one was, but once she did, she sat down in front of his snout and reached out to give him a good poke in the nose.

"Wak--" Wait a minute. Saying she wanted him to 'wake up' would be counterproductive. "Hey. You in there or are you doing Ysera's asleep-but-awakish-thing? If you ignore me, I'm going to start calling you Larry."

[mortalforged]

His eyes fluttered open, carrying a soft blue glow that was definitely familiar. "Ah," he rumbled good-naturedly, "I see you have learned how to walk through dreams." A smile graced his toothy mouth. One of the tiny birds fluttered over to Rose, alighting upon her shoulder. "This is the dream of my favorite little canary. It is very nice, I think."

[theshadowkissed]

And here she'd been hoping to start calling him Larry because... well, he wouldn't get the joke anyways.

"I sort of can do it. It's not always by choice, but some habits are hard to break, even here, so I tend to end up in someone's dream instead of my best friend's head since I can't really check up on her while here," Rose replied with a shrug. She hadn't tried to purposefully dreamwalk yet, so she wasn't sure she could call it a learned skill.

"Since you're here, I had a quest--" Wait a second. "Did you just say we're in a bird's dream?" She glanced at the bird perched on her shoulder.

[mortalforged]

"Do you need help getting back?" Morpheus was helpful, at least when he was actually paying attention. "I can lead you back to your body, if you need it." It wasn't uncommon for him to help young budding druids when they wandered a little too far away from their teachers.

"Yes. The leaves begin to look like feathers, if you watch them long enough. And the sky is much bigger for the birds than it is for me." The little bird perched on Rose's shoulder peeped cheerfully.

[theshadowkissed]

"I can get back on my own. Just need to make sure I'm not all worked up when I want to go back," Rose replied. "The getting back part I got down."

At the description of the leaves, Rose did take the time to look at them- really look at them - and they did kind of look like feathers. It was weird, so she shook her head to clear it.

"I figure the sky is probably bigger for most people than it is for you. So, since I got you hear, think you can give a girl a hand with a few things? There's a whole lack of stuff we non-dragons kinda need? Like... showers, money and, I don't know, maybe some poor-ass weapons that aren't found laying around a decimated campsite outside Silverglen. You all want us to help and kill demons. Might be a good idea to give us the tools to do so since we can't eat those little gremlins whole in one bite."

[mortalforged]

Morpheus nodded. It was good that she'd learned to master that skill so quickly. It made him a little happy, too. He rested his head atop one massive claw, watching her lazily as she spoke.

"Oh, you mean to bathe?" He paused, considering. "Do you not use the rain?" No... she probably wanted a body of water. "I think there is a lake in the sanctum, somewhere. I will clear it when I return." Oh, and weapons. "An armory! That was what we were missing. I have been trying to remember that for weeks... You will have that, too, weapons and armor, as much as you need. As for money... that is... the villagers have always bartered, so I am not sure any currency we came up with would have any real value."

So sorry, Rose.

[theshadowkissed]

Damn. Well, money had probably been too much to hope for since she'd already experienced the whole bartering thing in Silverglen already. But the others...

"Just make sure there's some privacy with the lake when you clear it. Cause as rockin' as my body is, that's something only certain people get the privilege to see." And an armory sounded awesome except...

"And are we talking medieval times weapons and armor here or, like, Kevlar and AK-47s?" Would bullets even hurt the demons?

[mortalforged]

"Right, of course." He was still unsure of how mortals viewed privacy, but watching the night elves had taught him a little bit. He would make sure. Her question about weapons made him pause, though.

"I have no idea what you are talking about," he said quite plainly. "We have swords, shields, bows and arrows, lances, javelins, axes, daggers... That sort of thing."

[theshadowkissed]

"So we're doing this D&D style. Got it." Rose tentatively reached up to see if the bird on her shoulder would let her pet its head. "I know how to use a sword, a knife, a stake - obviously - and a staff. Anything else we could probably use some training with."
