[ooc: Forward-dated to the wee hours of the morning, around 3:00 or 4:00.]


[So she'd been having some problems with fire lately, and it had been rattling her nerves. That was normal, right? This was normal.]

[When the camera turned on, there was the usual firelight that indicated that Heather was, once again, sleeping out in some sheltered area of the woods on account of A) Being totally broke, and B) having a increasingly-strained relationship with those Center nurses. But this time, the fire's a fair distance away, leaving most of Heather's features in shadow.]

[Normally she was okay with fire in most situations. She could light matches without freaking out, and while campfires weren't exactly her favorite thing in the world, they were kind of necessary for, y'know, camping, and they didn't make her want to run screaming for the hills or anything. But tonight... tonight, for some reason, that fire sent vicious little shivers down her spine and she'd realized that she did not want to sit near it.]

[Even through the shadows, the glaze of sweat on her skin was visible, as was the fact that she was unusually pale. In her lap is Arty, who seems to be a little confused at being used as a squeeze-toy, but is holding abnormally still for once, whiskers twitching and black eyes glistening in the fire's light. She can tell there's something wrong.]



H-hey, um...

... That was a pretty crazy storm earlier, huh?

I can't be the only one still awake.


.... James? Uh-- ... man, what am I saying, you're probably not even awake. [Forced, awwwwkward laugh. Of course he wouldn't be awake, and anyway, he was going back to get his wife, he didn't have to hear about her fucked-up dreams. In fact, why would she even want to tell him? They were just dreams! So what if they were about...]

.....

[Nightmares like that had to be normal after everything she'd been doing, right...?]


.... SOME weather we've been having lately, huh, guys?

[ guess who was unnerved by the fog? Guess who hasn't been able to sleep? Guess who is also using Kanzeon the Furret as a stuffed animal? ]

... Heather?

[Wataru looks so, so tired. But at the same time, he looks fairly unnerved.]

Huh...?

...some weather, yeah. All this fog is kind of...weird.

[Surprise surprise Heather, James actually still awake. He hadn't exactly been able to sleep himself. The fog had been plague him much like it had in that damned town. A memory he really didn't want to think about--especially since he had Mary back...]

[Which is the funny thing, he thought he'd be so happy with her here but there was just something... Wrong. Maybe it wasn't the weird weather that was keeping him up, or the odd feelings he had been experiencing since it's arrival, but something else.]


Heather, I'm up... Are you okay? You look pale.

[James doesn't have much room to talk, he looks as though he's been without sleep for a day or two and could really use some rest.]

Problems?

The weather has been pretty bad, but I've seen worse.

Trouble sleeping?

[Like most people, Kaito's been trying to avoid sleep, particularly after the doozy of a nightmare he had the previous night. Not sleeping isn't helping things though, because now he's positive he's seeing things... which is causing him to be far jumpier than he normally is.

Heather's post to the network provides a reprieve, though he can immediately tell something is wrong with her, too]


Hey.
