I dreamed last month, while I was asleep. I'm sure I'm not the only one, as there seem to be vague allusions to these nightmares floating around the network, and therefore I feel that a discussion is pertinent.

Assuming, of course, that I wasn't alone in having them, but given the way things tend to happen on this ship, it seems unlikely.

Unfortunately, it was difficult to parse to whom the dreams belonged, working on the additional assumption that they belonged to someone in the first place. Remaining in the stasis tanks for an entire jump only muddled things further, I'm sure.

In the event all of my aforementioned assumptions are not, in fact, mere assumptions, it might be beneficial for us to compare notes.

It's about time.

[For the moment, Rose, he approves of you.]

We'll compare it in chronological order.

To begin with, a woman, running through corridors of the ship. Very hot, no doors. What was she carrying?

[seered]

She had a pipe. Some sort of blunt object.

[ryuuzaki]

Yes. Her name was Lotte. What was her brother's name? He was excited about something.

[seered]

Tomas. He was looking forward to the activation of the jump drive, and Lotte didn't share his sentiments.

Have I passed? Is this a discussion or a pop quiz?

[ryuuzaki]

Yes. A discussion. It seems important to document these things as much as possible, however.

I wondered something about Lotte. It may be that this was a repetition of the situation we've been experiencing for the past few months. But there were so many strange things about her state.

I had the impression that she was trying to make a mark every day, not every hour. Her behavior, and the behavior of the manticore that pursued her, seemed impossible... the only thing that lends credence to the scenario was the knowledge that many of us have also been trapped in the corridors for days in the past, seemingly without any recourse or any real ill effect.

Still, it makes me wonder... have you ever had a high fever?

[circumitus]

lost some time as well. might have shared similar nightmares.

[seered]

The content was largely a woman lost in the halls. Is that what you mean?

[circumitus]

seem to recall something like that, yes.

see her dreams as well?

[seered]

Ah, when you put it that way things make a bit more sense. I was wondering about the shifts in perspective. The jump seems to have muddled things a bit, for me.

[the_other_eight]

Could you elaborate on what you saw?

[She wasn't in the pods last month, but she wants to know.]

[seered]

Much of the content was from the perspective of someone either lost in or wandering the corridors. I believe she was being pursued, or at least, she thought she was.

[the_other_eight]

Was there ever confirmation of a peruser?

[seered]

It's difficult to say. From her perspective, there was a monster, but we can't be sure whether or not it was a hallucination.

[leaps]

Do you remember what you saw?

[seered]

Some of it. It's taken some time to sort out after the jump. The memories didn't all belong to one person, if they were memories at all.

[leaps]

You should talk to Thranduil and Galadriel. They...when they were in their tubes, they saw things too. And I...

[ a pause. ]

I dreamed last month.

[seered]

I remember them addressing the network, yes.

A woman named Lotte. Did you have the same dreams?

[askedtobe]

Too bad not nearly enough people seem interested.

[voice]

[seered]

Well, we can't all take time out of our busy schedules to talk about the latest piece in the puzzle.

[voice]

[askedtobe]

That's not what I meant. Just surprised more people aren't interested.

[seered]

As am I, to be completely truthful. I was hoping for a bit more response, but in this case I might have to take what I'm given and fit things together that way.

[withlace]

And what is it you dreamed about exactly?

[seered]

I believe I witnessed the experiences of an original crew member. She was lost in the halls and likely hallucinating.

[withlace]

Has anyone else told you they've dreamed something similar?

[seered]

Several, in fact. I have quite a few conversations going that should prove to be very productive. Were you also asleep last month?
