I love those little flying fish, for obvious reasons.

Nice Dad joke by the way. XD

From:

shadowtruths

There is something to them, isn’t there? Not bragging, I didn’t invent the themes, but a fish flying captures many yearnings and trappings all at once. They are my youngest sister’s favorite too, by the way. She has named each one and won’t tell me a single one of them.

If you found a joke then you went hunting, and I know better than to disturb such efforts. [Admits nothing, nope.]

If you could create a dream or nightmare, what would you be inspired to make?

From:

dawn_is_breaking

Why won't she tell you? Just to bug you or because she forgot them?

Hrm that's a good question, I think if I could create a dream I would want it to be something gentle and soothing. Something that brings comfort to people when they encounter it.

From:

shadowtruths

Knowing Delirium? Either is possible.

I’m envisioning a warm cloud full of sunlight’s warmth that dispels jazz music instead of raindrops. Which is, entirely, my own preferences.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

If that's your vision then it says a lot about you, especially the jazz part.

From:

shadowtruths

I now have to inquire, what does the jazz say about me?

From:

dawn_is_breaking

I'm not sure exactly, it's more that I never had you pegged as a jazz fan.

From:

shadowtruths

No? What musical appreciation impression do I present?

From:

dawn_is_breaking

Classical. For sure.
And maaaaaaaaaaaaybe sad goth music like The Cure.

From:

shadowtruths

I knew you were going to say the latter.

Death told me the same thing once.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

I'm sorry dearest, but you do kind of look like the lead singer of an 80's goth band.

From:

shadowtruths

More people should wear easy to match colors and not bother with combs. It's sensible.

[Not at all a dramatic statement.]

I wore black before Goth was invented, you know.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

That is quite possibly the gothest thing you could have said.
You're so adorable.

From:

shadowtruths

You are committing acts of crime against my image, you know. Here I thought you a vigilante for justice.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

I am not!!

From:

shadowtruths

I might need a more convincing defense. A compliment towards my outerwear at the very least.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

I'm sorry my darling, you know I love your style and your choice in clothes. You always look amazing and sexy.

From:

shadowtruths

What I am gathering from that heartfelt sentiment is that you rather like gothic stylings. A juxtaposition to your own style?

I find you an anchor upon which memory revolves, whether you are painstakingly put together or a random slapdash effort to get into bed quickest.

One you wear to present to the world, the other to find comfort in between the sheets and solace.

I notice both. Without judging any well worn concert shirts. [If there aren't any he's just shit talking in many words.]

From:

dawn_is_breaking

I've previously admitted to my love of dark brooding types so when I tease you about being goth it's never because I don't like it.
Quite the opposite.
I love being all wrapped up inside your dark cloak.

From:

shadowtruths

Perhaps then what is needed, on both of our ends, is not to merely find that which is comfortable in our pasts but what might stand out this time from longings parted.

I am glad to wrap you in my cloak, and I am glad find someone as strong willed as steadfast. I value that you are also not quick this go around with your heart, that you are keen to listen and stern on being heard.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

Would you ever wrap me up in your cloak when we're both naked?

From:

shadowtruths

Wrap you up in that which dreams are made of, with nothing else touching your skin?

Oh yes. I very much would.

From:

dawn_is_breaking

Can you do that with me tonight?
I can't stop thinking about it since we started talking about your cloak.

From:

shadowtruths

It would be my privilege and pleasure. Where would you prefer it to take place? The Dreaming, your flat, or somewhere else?

[This is new in his relationships. Not him sharing control, he's learned to do that more with Thessaly, but there it never came as easily and honestly as it does with Dawn. If he is to wrap her in dreams, he wants it on terms that will be pleasant for her, not a nightmare, and he won't just presume where that would be.]
