It does. And hey - if it isn't, you can just lie to me. Not like I'm going to know the difference.

Anyway. I'm an Oni.

[recession]

[ That's so funny. ]

...Ditto.

[ablazement]

[HELP]

-- What.

[recession]

Ditto.

Not as in I'm also an Oni. That's the name.

[ablazement]

[HELP X2]

You scared me! Gods. [a little laugh, christ.] What's... a Ditto.

[recession]

[ HELP x3 COMBO ]

Oh, sorry. But I have no idea though. Nobody I've asked seems to know either.

[ Assigned formless blob real... ]

[ablazement]

Huh. What's it do?

[imagines a ditto with an eyepatch and a thousand yard stare]

[recession]

[ Stop but also do you want to report this to mods or should I. ]

My theory? Mimic someone else's power. I don't really get to choose though.

What about yours?

[ablazement]

[oh i threw it at them already, the mods are suffering me this week]

Oh, huh. That's sort of neat, though? Could come in handy. [...] Uhhhh.

[her tail flicks, and then:]

I can give people dreams.

[recession]

[ I FUCKIN' KNEW IT WAS YOU cries and holds Karlach in my palm. ]

Dreams...? Any kind of dream?

[ablazement]

[LAUGHS GUESS WHO ISN'T SUBTLE IN THE LEAST]

Sure. They come out mean or weird even when I try for them not to, though.

[recession]

Do you have an example...?

[ This is such an odd ability in his eyes. Eye. ]

[ablazement]

Like trying to make someone feel better about things but there's got to be, like, horror. First.

[she doesn't know what to do with it half the time so she's just like uhhh... hope you like this.]

[recession]

[ ... ]

Karlach did you dream me Tuesday two weeks ago.

Look, I tried to make it nice!

[recession]

[ Well, he doesn't look mad. Maybe just a tiiiny bit exasperated at best? But even then there's a sort of mild softness to it, in the 'what am I going to do with you...' sort of way. ]

...Thank you. It was kind of nice.

[ablazement]

[slightly pouty, but.]

You're welcome. That's all I wanted. To make the best of a shit thing I was handed.

[recession]

That's what you're best at, right?

[ablazement]

S'what I'm trying to be best at.

[she rubs at her chest, expression twitching.]

[recession]

Think you've been doing a decent job, everything considered.

I don't think most could keep trekking on as well as you do.

[ablazement]

[silence, for a little bit.]

I've got my shitty, bitter moments. [...] I want people to remember me as happy. I want to have been happy.

[recession]

If that's how you want to be known, that's how it'll be.

Even better if we really do get that heart right back in place.

[ablazement]

[well. she smiles a little, glancing at him.]

Careful, solider, that almost sounded optimistic.

[it's a very, very gentle tease. it's a nice thought.]

[recession]

What, I'm not allowed to be?

[ Come on. ]

[ablazement]

I like it when you are! Best sound in the world. Well, second best.
