"Little is linear in the Dreaming. Except, perhaps, the experiences of those who reside here permanently." Dinosaurs and i-Phones could co-exist peacefully, but neither Lucienne nor Matthew nor even Dream could unwind an unkind word said between them with a mere flick of time's table. There were limits on even what the Dream King could do, or else... or else what? If he tugged at a past mistake to make it appear as though it never happened, it would be to undo reality in such a way that might unravel them all.

"I do know about it." Still, it was rude to talk for her about her dream. "Though it would not exist without your part in the exchange, either." The dream was only as meaningful, as exuberant, as the unconscious hopes and wants were behind it. "I am but a function, given form when needed." Though his all-black aesthetic when he did appear, that was admittedly because he liked it. A function of the universe could still have a personality, apparently.
"It is your dream. We may go where you wish." He hesitated a moment. "Though I'm afraid I don't have much time. I wanted to see you before... I am going away, and it may be for quite some time."
