they say that death is a tragedy it comes once, and it's over

I didn't think so, but it's fine. I was just curious.

[acaseofyou]

You know, I've never tried it deliberately, but I've probably got a few songs that might do some dream-influence. Don't know that I can go in direct or anything. There's some that can go in direct, I just don't know that magic.

[noreasonneeded]

It's fine, like I said. Just curious. I wouldn't want anyone to go directly inside my mind and mess things around, anyway.

[acaseofyou]

Yeah, I don't think I'd want anyone messing things around in your mind, either.

[noreasonneeded]

Suppose that would be the price to be paid for non-shitty dreams.

[acaseofyou]

I'm sure there's other options for that. If they're shitty enough to need the service.

[noreasonneeded]

If you suggest tea, I will be offended.

[acaseofyou]

Kaz, I would never.

[noreasonneeded]

Good. In all seriousness though, I've just learned to live with it. I wouldn't be a sunny person even if I did sleep more. Too much rainy Ketterdam in my veins.

[acaseofyou]

A Sunny Kaz would certainly be an unnerving sight. But I know from nightmares, and wanting to not deal with them even if they show up anyway.

[noreasonneeded]

Yeah. I'm guessing a lot of people have them. Can't even feel special about it.

If I ever find a way around them I'll let you know. Other than sleeping as little as possible.

[acaseofyou]

You're still pretty special in my book.

I'd probably try that if I could. And if I hear of a good option that doesn't go direct into your head about it, I'll let you know, too.

[noreasonneeded]

Likewise. Probably better things to be known for than something you can't control, anyway.

Is that something a lot of vampires have? Nightmares? Been around a long time, I can't imagine not accumulating a few. Or do a lot of them after a certain point just stop getting affected like that?

[acaseofyou]

True.

Far as I've heard, it's different for all of us. Some will only have memories play out from their human life every day. Some have nightmares about that or other things. None of them are enough to really wake us, either, so we just endure them until sunset.

[noreasonneeded]

That must be rough for you. Not having an escape.

[acaseofyou]

I've gotten used to it, for the most part. It's been the norm for me for longer than night time nightmares.

[noreasonneeded]

I would imagine, given how long you've been Kindred. That still doesn't make it pleasant, so if I hear of anything that might help you, I'll pass it on your way.

[acaseofyou]

Thank you. And I will say, they've tended to be less frequent since I've been staying with you.

[noreasonneeded]

Yeah? Good. I don't skimp on other people's bed pillows.

[acaseofyou]

Well, if you think it'd help, you're welcome to one of mine.

[noreasonneeded]

Nah, I'm good. I can just not sleep. Works most of the time.

[acaseofyou]

I do worry that someday all that not-sleeping is going to catch up to you.

[noreasonneeded]

I'm too sneaky for anything to catch up to me.

[acaseofyou]

Hate to break it to you, but the sleep deprivation call is one that's coming from inside the house.

[noreasonneeded]

I bet I could swindle my needs if I wanted to. I like to put nothing past me. Except party hosting. And singing.
