Action - Evening, Dream Docks, Genessia

[ When Van wakes up from the dream docks, it's with a start. It feels like he's only been gone for a day, though his communicator has told him it's been longer than that. So much has happened that at once it feels like much longer as well.

The teenager looks around, frowning, wandering back towards Fayren. A hand remains on the sword at his hip, and although he remains wary and vigilant he also knows there might not be such reason to be that way here. In that comfort, he allows himself to be more lost in thought and not paying attention to anything that would not do him harm. ]

Voice – Late Night

[ A voice not too many might recognize is the source of a new voice post. It's hard for him to speak, that much may be obvious, but he doesn't allow himself to stop – at least, not until he asks what he needs to. ]

I have two questions to ask of all of you.

First, of the dream docks. Are those dreams truly the events of our worlds as set in stone, or is there a chance of changing them if we should return to our homes?

Second, what are the chances of those displaced in our worlds coming to this place, as those already here have?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I'm afraid I can't answer the first question. Even the name "Dream Docks" suggests unreality.

As for the second, do you mean what are the chances another native of yours could come to Genessia?

[ Helpful... ]

Yes, I do.

[Sigh]

Very slim. Usually when more than one from a place comes, it's within weeks if not days of each other. Every so often same-world inhabitants arrive, separated by a greater span of time, but it's rare. For example, recently one of my teachers, Ike, had someone arrive who was familiar with his exploits.

[aka don't hold your breath]

I see.

[ He's quiet for some time, taking it in and, though not pleased with it, having no choice but to take it as truth. He already knew, to be honest, but some vain hope of his was telling him differently, that he should at least ask.

... It's also apparent that Van isn't exactly the talkative type. ]

[~~How do you people live~~ Ted is quite the opposite, and feels compelled to say something to the crestfallen. He's inspired people before, though never under these circumstances. First time for everything. He'll start small this time.]

"What's your name?"

[ ~~His mun asks herself the same question far too often.~~ ]

... Van. And yours?

Ted. Van, is this something you'd like to talk about?

No, there is not.

[ Rude? Probably. He really doesn't care though. ]

[Hurt feelings. Be strong, Ted.]

Mm. Well, if that ever changes, or if you'd like to listen to something that might cheer instead, please make use of me." [He'd make a mental note to include Van in his prayers.]

[ He just sighs at the message he gets, because he really doesn't want to talk about what happened. There isn't really anyone he'd trust enough to talk about it.

...

But he will have to be more social than just working for himself, won't he? If he can learn from here... Maybe he can learn something else, in order to become strong enough to succeed where his 'dreams' have already led him to fail.

Unfortunately, he has no intention of continuing the conversation further with Ted on this night. ]

Those events really happen. People from my home world arrived after my first time at the dream docks and confirmed the events I experienced.

I think some worlds are more popular than others.

So there is no chance of preventing things from occurring?

[ His stomach turns at the thought. That might mean... ]

... What do you mean 'popular'?

It's highly unlikely. No one remembers what they learn here when they get home.

Many people come from Remnant. Sometimes I've seen groups from the same world.

[ He doesn't want to give definite answers because, not enough is known.]

[ The words appear on his screen and he's not happy to see them. If he doesn't remember, then he really can't change anything... ]

I fail to see what would make them popular, but I really have no choice but to take your word for it, do I?

I'm just making guesses based on my observations.

Sometimes people seem to come in groups from the same world.

[She was a bit hesitant but....]

I.... don't think there's a way to change them.... As far as I know, we don't even remember being here when we return.

Then...

[ He's stiff, silent for a long time as he takes it in. ]

... You know this for certain?

Well... unless I can somehow come back to life, than yeah...

Wait, you can't mean that.

[ Perhaps it's spoken thoughtlessly, but it really is shocking to him. He isn't expecting an answer either, considering how quickly he speaks again. ]

You make it sound as if the dead can arrive here as well.

That they can. I'm not sure how it's possible, but it is. I technically shouldn't be alive anymore myself.

I believe they are the truth that we simply cannot change.

As for the second, it seems random, but if you pay attention there are some groups who have more than others, or at least seem to know one another. Which is why I don't have much hope for seeing people I know.

Fai...

[ The familiar voice is oddly welcome, even if he hasn't exactly been on the best terms with Fai. At least, he believes he hasn't. With numerous confirmations that nothing can change and nothing stating the opposite, it's starting to put him in an even worse state than before. ]

... But there is still a chance they will appear again.

[ Why he's clinging onto that hope, he isn't sure. The girl who perhaps spawned that in him isn't there anymore, after all... And that girl is a mutual friend of theirs. ]

Always a possibility, but I'd say it's usually about... 5% chance for the most part.

[Which was mostly a giant guess to say the least anyway.]
