Action: but you never tire of dreams

Characters: Any willing dreamers
Open? Yes
Where: In your minds
When: After the party
What: Part two of the dream plot!
Warnings:


The party went on, with the beast's head on display. A proud, twisted thing. Behind false ruby eyes, it waited. And as the music became slower and the wine less plentiful, it waited still.

Those who had gazed upon it at the ball. Those who had seen it once living in the forest. All heroes who dared to look upon its face and dream still that they would be able to live another day...

There are all sorts of ways of living. In waking. In sleep. Perhaps, now, they would find one in between.

(ooc: Feel free to keep tagging into the party post! Once your characters go home and go to sleep of their own accord, that is when the dreaming will begin. Remember, it is up to you to set up what kind of world your character is trapped in and how best to help them. Plotting post is here, make use of it!

The beast's power will wane once the bulk of the dreamers have escaped his curse. If your character was not at the party but you still want to involve them in the dream plot, that is fine! They can either help get people out or have seen the beast wandering in the woods before it was killed and have caught its attention that way.

If a unicorn could smile, the unicorn here would be doing just that.

"Thank you." Sundrop peers into her teacup, appreciating the herbal scents, and realizes that her attendance was not well-thought out.

But when was she ever one for thinking ahead?

"Is there licorice in this?" she asks, after taking a closer sniff of the tea. She thinks she can detect a hint of the root, though teas are not something she's overly familiar with.
tatra: (But what about...?)

"What is licorice?" Tarta asks, a small frown on her face. Tatra only shakes her head.

"It has beet sugar, and water and plant extracts," she explained as best she could.

Her face brightens. "Beets!" What a treat!

Have you ever seen a unicorn try to drink from a teacup designed for people? Don't mind the mess, ladies. She's bound to get at least a third of the drink where it's supposed to go.
tatra: (Sweet laugh)

Tarta makes a face and Tatra restrains a giggle. She hopes her unicorn guest enjoys the drink. It's a traditional way to extend welcome in Chizeta.
