Bringer looked from the spirit to the burden and then to Soot, obviously puzzled. | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | Soot
Her tail puffed up a bit as she watched. This wasn't right. This wasn't what dreamwalks had been like before in her experience. She tensed and got ready to end the dream if needed. | | |

The spirit said "I can't be here. I want to but I will just hurt him, hurt everyone. I don't want to hurt anymore. I miss him. I miss Sadie."
Sadie was the name of the cat that drown. Or at least that was her human name. | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | Soot
She asks quietly, "How will you hurt him or others? What can we do to help you?" | | |

I just killed my lovely little Sadie. I sat down and petted her. I saw Herman bury her. I know I did it. Who else could have?" | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | Soot
"You are of water. Water and air breathers like Sadie and the one here don't work well together. That shouldn't be a problem here, but I don't know. Maybe you can just talk and not walk too close? You can tell him why you can't visit more." | | |

I don't want to be alone anymore. I would give anything to be done with this. I want it all to be over. No more torture, no more pain." The spirit looked to the cat and in the dream the spirit cried. | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | Soot
She lashed her tail - it wasn't in annoyance as much as confusion. Perhaps the spirit could speak more freely here. "You said you must come? That you made a deal? With whom?" | | |

I get to come here and see those I love. But I must come when called. Do things. If I don't there is pain." She shook her head that was all she could or would say. | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | Soot
"You two can talk here. Say the things you want to say and he will feel better for knowing you could talk. Then maybe you should leave. If you don't come back to look, the agreement is broken and you won't have to hurt anyone anymore?"
She wasn't sure, but if one didn't get anything from the bargain, it could be broken she thought. | | |

"I can't refuse the call. And it would hurt them. I mean him if I didn't come." | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | Soot
"Why don't you talk to him about it?" She bobbed her head in the direction of the burden. "See what he wants."
ooc I'm sorry guys, I wouldn't have made this suggestion if I'd realized it would slow things up/keep you from being able to post much. | | |

The man answers "I miss you too." The spirit snaps stock still. (OOC Don't worry you aren't. Stuff will get interesting. We are almost through this scene.  )

She looked at the spirit curiously as she tried to make out what made the spirit freeze. "What is it?"
Ooc okay, I was worrying since I initially thought more might be involved. | | |

The cat's ears and whiskers moved in what a human might interpret as a frown. Soot went closer to the spirit and circled it. Maybe bringing her into the dream world wasn't a smart move; however, it did give them a name. She hoped Bringer had marked it. | | |

The big, rumpled looking cat glared at the spirit and concentrated on the name.
Your burden needs you, Gardenia... | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | Soot
Soot spoke to the Burden, "Tell me about your love," she urged. | | |

Only Bringer's use of its name caused any sign but even that was of the faintest of twitches. Something was definitely afoot. | | | | | | Raven Unregistered | | Raven Unregistered | ooc Did the Burden respond to Soot? Can Soot hear Bringer? | | |

The old man smiled a wistful lonesome thing "we met so long ago. Two young people trying to make their own way just before the Great Depression. She was a waitress. I was a powder monkey out near what would become the Hoover Dam. We fell in love at first sight. She in her little outfit working the casino coffee shop. OOh was she something to see."
The spirit never moved. No sign that she even heard him. | | |
