[Maybe today everything is a little darker, a little fuzzier. If you squint, for a moment, it seems like things are blurring together. Sleeping or awake, do you know what you're going to find when you turn around

[Unsafe vibes]

Hello?

[the9thdream]

[the echo of his own voice, repeated so many times that it sounds a lot like an entire room of people is greeting him in turn]

[gavehimhead]

[goes quiet, listening for anything other than the echo]

[the9thdream]

[you might hear a familiar voice yelling --> that way]

[gavehimhead]

[--RUNNING IN THAT DIRECTION]

[the9thdream]

[there's also a low awful guttural voice, like the sort of voice something terrible and abysmal might have]

[gavehimhead]

[I WOULD RUN FASTER IF I WASN'T ALREADY GOING AS FAST AS I CAN]

Elliot?!

[the9thdream]

[a low rumbling laugh, the sort that probably is familiar to your own nightmares]

[gavehimhead]

[Ignoring that, it is not as important as finding Elliot]

[the9thdream]

[there is someone in front of you, back to you]

[gavehimhead]

[Slows a bit. DOES THAT BACK LOOK LIKE ELLIOT'S BACK?]

[the9thdream]

[nope; it looks a bit slimmer, more feminine]

[gavehimhead]

[slows almost to a stop, debating whether or not to go around the figure]

[the9thdream]

[as he's debating, it turns slowly; that is very much Vanessa's body, sans head]

[gavehimhead]

[Freezes for a moment, and then takes a half a step back, ready to run.]

[the9thdream]

[it turns slowly, then lifts an accusing finger, pointing at him]
