[this room is one of the stranger places to him, probably, with its circular shape and warm colors, the soft lighting. it's not bad by any means, he likes the aesthetic, but he definitely still takes a few seconds to get his bearings and take it in...
...and also to listen to the duet the two children are playing.
the scene here is one that he's less willing to interrupt than others, and when he steps closer, it's more cautious, not really wanting to put an end to that.]
[ Obviously, these are the two children. At the end of their song, Gregor can hear them laugh. One of them chides the other, telling them that they need to be more disciplined in their playing. The reaction is that isn't it about having fun?
The banter is innocent, playful. Gregor would be able to close his eyes and he'd still know that they're close. Of course with the sound of footsteps, even cautious, the owner of the dream can sense an invader no matter their entry, such is one bundled and coiled in paranoia and fear. The dream shifts eventually when one child stops engaging in conversation. "Nai?" asks one, worried.
Well, one twin stands from the stool... And in a blink he's a man. ]
I see that you were received well on the other side.
[technically i guess gregor isn't fully human after the genetic manipulation but you know, it'd be kind of novel to be hated for the human part of the genes. being human enough to suffer human racism is a positive in that sense.]
Well, what's the receiving end like? I've never been on that side either. Does it just suddenly start being a lucid dream sort of situation after we get here?

[he reaches up to rub at the back of his neck, there.]
Sorry. Didn't, ah, intend to interrupt or eavesdrop, but...

[ Considering, yeah, Vash's vibes are better. ]
It seems that our dreams have caught up to us, so communication should be more stable through this method.

[it's not like he didn't ever talk to your ass before he died. we're chill.]
It's definitely easier than I thought, for a dream. Half expected it to be-- I don't know, trying to communicate in weird metaphors or something.

[ And SO IS GREGOR. Don't think this means anything. Racism lives strong. ]
I wouldn't know what it is like. I've always been on the receiving end.

It's invasive and if I were in deeper sleep, then I may not notice right away.
[ It depends on the NPC, basically. Knives is very paranoid. ]

[yeesh.]
If I bug you again and you don't notice it's a visit like this, I'll leave. I'm not a voyeur.
no subject
I notice when people enter.
