Is this a dream?

Am I dreaming?

Or perhaps that was a dream, and I am waking.

Are you a dream?

Am I a dream?

Who must I be?

You're River.

[shesagift]

Is that my name?

If this were dreaming, then I certainly would be a river.

But if that were dreaming,

and this were waking,

would they have given me my name in my dream?

[thiefshonor]

......what?

[shesagift]

What?

[screwyoubob]

Who cares?

[shesagift]

I don't know.

[screwyoubob]

I care! Who are you?

[shesagift]

I don't know. A dream, or not a dream.

[electronichound]

Hmmm.

I don't know if this is a dream or not, and I don't think that I'm a dream, because I have to exist if only to perceive this illusion.

You don't have to be anything or anyone, meimei.

[shesagift]

But would you say that if you were a dream?

Am I a sister? Are you a brother? Am I anything at all?

[electronichound]

If I were a dream, I'd say anything at all because I wouldn't be real.

And I assume you're my meimei, but if you want to be my little brother, that's fine, too.

[shesagift]

Then you could very well be saying that.

Would I be? What would I be if this were a dream? Or if this were waking?

Does it still speak?
