Twenty First Clone

[sitaronthewater]

The room is filled with faceless people, backs turned to your view. You can still make out that they are laughing, smiling, happy, and having a good time. There is someone in a long, hooded cloak walking around and through the groups. He has a bunch of cue cards in his hands, shuffling through them.

He keeps going up to the groups, trying either to make them notice him (which they don't), or glean information by observation. After a while he seems to get overly flustered and winds up tripping on his own coat, falling, and revealing himself to be Demyx. As he falls, the cue cards scatter, and he tries to gather them up a little before he seems to just stay down on the floor, having lost hope . . . or did he?

[OoC: Anyone and everyone welcome in his dream~! No prior reservations needed.]

Sounds great. (Does he sound concerned here?) Why don't ya join 'em?

[sitaronthewater.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess.

I don't think I can just join them.

[elevatorwarrior]

(Tilting his head, he gave Demyx a curious glance) Why not? Haven't ya tried?

[sitaronthewater.livejournal.com]

[And have a curious glance back, before he thinks on that] Well, they don't really notice me around them, even when I bump into them.

[elevatorwarrior]

...maybe they're trying to be polite. If ya want to be noticed, you got to get into people's faces. (It was as good advice as any)

[sitaronthewater.livejournal.com]

That's how you be polite? [He wasn't sarcastic, just genuinely asking. He'd never heard of that before.] Besides, I don't really want to be noticed, just watch.

[elevatorwarrior]

Well, yeah. Kinda not making a fuss over it. Have ya ever tried talking to them?

[sitaronthewater.livejournal.com]

Oh. I think I get it. [He's getting more and more lucid as the dream goes on, so by now he understands it more.] Well, not them, but I think they're people in general. And they kinda don't have faces.

I speak to the people in the City, though.

[elevatorwarrior]

(There's something just odd about the facelessness of the people, like it wasn't normal, but he couldn't think of why.)

But ya feel apart from them? I guess I can understand.

[sitaronthewater.livejournal.com]

Yeah. The people in the City are definitely easier to talk to.
