04 - week four
WEEK FOUR
Saturday comes to a close, and it’s time for some rest and recovery. Perhaps the TLC you deserve will come this week, or perhaps the nightmare will continue. It’s hard to say with things being so strange around you, from Wei Wuxian’s disappearance to the sudden addition of objects and places and creatures from your homes. Who knows what this week will bring? Nothing ordinary, that’s for sure.
You wake up on Sunday to an increase in those little glimpses you saw yesterday. What were snippets of songs, locations that might’ve seemed familiar, and creatures that were dormant, are now all alive and whole. When you go to the karaoke bar, the songs you once knew are there. Monsters and animals are alive and sentient. New business are abound. Vehicles are operable, and perhaps some of your old belongings are back, too.
However, some of these things aren’t even things that should exist outside of your dreams. They may be far too strange and unusual to be real, or just things you don't remember ever seeing. The only thing you remember about these things in particular is that they were, quite literally, in your dreams this week.
That being said, every few hours, all of these things from your homes and dreams fade out and get replaced by new sounds, places, beasts….only to maybe come back again at another time.
Well. At least there's one constant here: You’ve got a handful of new locations to look at, with the fog having spread once more, and they aren't going anywhere. There aren’t as many new places that are native to Estelline this time around, but that may be for the best, considering everything going on.

OOC NOTE
OOC: Details on this week can be found here!
Also, we have a lot of participants for the news activity from last week. Neat! Everyone who participated in some capacity will have a small polaroid camera delivered to their doorstep. There's limited film, though - 10 photos per camera. It doesn't seem like there's any extra film at this time, either.
Finally, there will not be any weekly tasks this week. You guys are going to be busy with memshare and dreamscape stuff; instead, enjoy the Estelline University Newspaper!

Hmm, a wish...
[ He has a few, but none that he thinks Idia should hear. Talking about his twin brother right now doesn't feel like an option, so... ]
I wish for some delicious hot chocolate.
no subject
[If he had one of those wish crystals hung up on the tree, it might question the authenticity. It had to be a wish that was meant for the thing ti light up. As it stands, though, Fai is safe from the scrutiny of the crystals and open to the judgment of the teenage boy.]
... um... the cafeteria i- isn't open to non-students either... ... sorry.
no subject
[ He hums in thought. ]
Does it have to be something harder to achieve?
[ Honestly, Fai doesn't wish for a whole lot and he really doesn't want to dampen Idia's mood by a bummer of a wish. ]
no subject
[he folds one arm over his chest, holding his other]
... it's not like it's guaranteed to be granted either, so... um...
... I hope you get your hot chocolate?...
[There wasn't really any harm in a wish like that. The harm was happening to his psyche in having to talk to a stranger while dressed up in totally un-casual clothes!!]
no subject
Thanks! What was your wish?
[ Fai knows Idia is incredibly shy, so he thinks prompting him to talk a little bit more might be helpful. ]
no subject
Eh... what, just because... some special wish... fun of...
[Eh, what, just because I'm a Stargazer am I expected to have some special wish? I refuse to let it be made fun of.]
... for everyone to be happy? [he's totally lying]
no subject
[ Does he believe that’s actually Idia’s wish? Hell no. ]
I almost feel guilty for not wishing for something like that.
