Hrm. That makes sense, from what I understand my friend Rachel was partially responsible for helping bring Donna back. When those sorts of things happen does your sister get angry? I'd hate for her to be upset at Rachel, she's just a sixteen year old girl who doesn't understand the limits of her powers yet.
[Can you tell that Dawn is a little bit protective of her?]
I can't imagine Death getting upset at a child. Believe me, she can be quite an annoying pain when she wants to be, but she's also the most compassionate person I know. An adult purposely causing harm for selfish reasons might earn her displeasure, but a desperate bid out of love would likely earn her sympathy.
I'm pretty sure Rachel would resent being called a child but it's good to know your sister wouldn't be upset at her. She's a wonderful girl and I know for a fact she'd probably think you were "cool" if she were to ever meet you.
A demon father, you say? I can't imagine that having gone well. I understand though wanting your life settled before opening it up to others.
Flatterer. [His tone is warm though as he says it.] I should think my appreciation of you would be the highest selling point to her. A show of excellent taste.
It was very hard on her when she learned who her real father was and that her biological mother was using her but she got through it and in a way it helped her figure out who she is and what she stands for. It was less about being settled and more about having enough emotional capacity to deal with others, which I know sounds bad but it's the truth.
I'm just telling you the truth. [Her tone is just as warm.] And yes, that's also a high selling point. But the dark clothes and mysterious vibe doesn't hurt either when you're talking to a sixteen year old goth girl.
I'm sorry she had to endure such a trial, though that is indeed a silver lining. It's true that sometimes our struggles strip away parts of us, but in so doing reveal an unmovable essence at the core. And my apologies, when I said settled, I meant it in more than a physical way. Emotional stability, in a way of speaking. It's okay to make certain you're in a place to truly be a positive influence on those around you before drawing them near. I think so at least, though it's easier to say that to others than internalize.
Is that my vibe, mm? Mysterious. I do suppose not many dreams are blatantly stark.
She was certainly made stronger from it, which I guess is a necessary thing in my line of business. You don't need to apologize, I just thought that I should explain it a little more. Rachel is very dear to me but I was so distraught and messed up after Hank's death I didn't think I could be of any help to her until I had worked through my grief. And now that I have I guess I've been a bit scared to reach out and contact her again.
[She's giggling at you again, Dream.] You know very well that you can be mysterious.
Mostly it's the fear of not being receptive to contact. I left Gotham when things were pretty bad so part of me worries she'll think I was abandoning her as well.
I see. That is a fair concern, I admit. Though perhaps once you explain your reasonings, if she did feel slighted she will find some resolution to that? It is difficult though to make that first step not knowing if you will be granted that chance. If I can offer any support during that venture let me know.
[He is infinitely cooler. And taller. :D Dawn is definitely a better partner than Thess was, LOL. Like I adore her but what we know of that relationship it was a bit of a trash fire. He's better off with someone who isn't quite so much all about themselves first.]
[I can just imagine Raven eating popcorn and listing all the ways that Dream is cooler than Dick is: 'did you know he made a whole ballroom in his KINGDOM for her? And all you did was drag her to record stores and lie to her.....' Hahaha yeah Thess is awesome but that relationship was kind of on fire. XD ]
[Drag him, Rachel, LOL. He deserves it for the lying. That is a nice element so far with Dream and Dawn, them being honest. Even if it's just to say they're not up to talking about something yet.]
[The lying not to mention trying to dump Rachel on her and then taking off. Dick pulls so many dick moves in that show XD I think it's really sweet how respectful Dawn and Dream have been with one another. <3 ]
[Ooof, yeah. Nightwing is one of my favorite characters and I’m okay with him not being perfect (he certainly isn’t in the comics, either) but I do side eye some of the show’s choices, LOL. I still need to finish season 3, though.]
[I love imperfect characters it's just that in the show sometimes his decisions seem really random. Season 3 is...well half of it is good, the other half feels really thrown together. I suspect it was because of COVID and the sudden restrictions and staff getting sick and what not.]

Would she? Is it because I wear black?
no subject
Oh very much so. Because you wear all black, because you're extremely good looking and mysterious.
