Dreamland (round 3)

[foundationmods]

[A strange house of some sort sits in the pitch black nothingness that exists around it. For those just now wandering in, they will be drawn to the building, finding it lit up in a way that it should not be. It's as if the whole area- house, yard, fence, and giant sakura tree- all give off their own light, and the newly-arrived are drawn to it like a moth to the flame.

Inside the boundary of the yard, the familiar faces of those who have passed on already will greet them. Depending on who is asked, they might give an accurate explanation. But even if they don't, one thing is clear: you don't want to leave this place. The area outside feels Dangerous, and it is probably best to stay put.

Fortunately, the house is built in an old style, and there are many rooms to explore. One room on the second floor seems locked, but the rest are open to explore as desired. The standard rooms are easy to find: kitchen, a W.C. and a bathroom, a sitting room of some sort, and a couple bedrooms (with plenty of futons for the dead to use). There are also several tatami mat rooms with nothing in them currently, but it seems like there might be some use for those rooms.

Around the house, perches for birds can be found. No birds are on them currently, though.

Sometimes Watanuki can be found in the house, but most of the time the dead will be left to their own devices. The question is, what will they do here?]

PART 1

[foundationmods]

[Here is the first set of images! Some of them are already in albums and don't need to be placed twice, the mod was just dumb about uploading shit. The rest need to be linked to the appropriate headers.

Figure out the patterns for the albums, and sort the images!]

[excavated]

[ YEAH SORRY he's distracted because he sees something rather familiar and just kind of freezes up. ... ] Syaoran. And Sakura, too.

[anonnomnomnom]

Oh, is that what Sakura looks like?

[He's not exactly talking to Tsubasa. Maybe in general direction of his topic. Hm.]

[excavated]

[ well he's not exactly responding to Anon either, so hm ]

[anonnomnomnom]

[You have fun with your PTSD there, boyo.]

[improbablenotimpossible]

...

[His expression softens slightly, as he looks over the different albums and the images - his breath catches for a moment]

So this is what Shadow meant.

[excavated]

... Did he tell you about the scrapbooking too? [ or something else?? ]

[improbablenotimpossible]

About how things would appear here from Watanuki's subconscious...

[He clarifies. The thought of the albums, and the photos - and what Watanuki admitted last week in their secret meeting...]

[excavated]

This is his dream, after all, and... maybe this is the way his soul is trying to repair itself.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Do the colors mean something, do you suppose?

[improbablenotimpossible]

It's likely - colors tend to have symbolic meanings.

[Shadow sees the scrapbooks and the collections of photos and just

Laughs. Genuinely! ]

I can’t believe he actually did it...!

Re: PART 1

[oceanicbutterfly]

...made photo albums?

[chaoscontrol]

Scrapbooks. Of course, I figured he'd do it himself, but... he is a busy noodle man. [Shadow voips out and returns with a page of notebook paper] Let's see what we have here...

[oceanicbutterfly]

Noodle man?

[p e e r s]

Is that directions?

[chaoscontrol]

Yes. Because he's tall. And skinny. Like a noodle.

No, it's notes that I took about that cookbook I had found. Do you remember?

[improbablenotimpossible]

Your idea, I take it?

[He tucks his hands into the sleeves of his hoari]

[chaoscontrol]

[Another chuckle]

A joke, at first. But then, I realized the idea had actual merit. Of course I suspected he'd do it himself but...

[Shadow consults his notes]

[improbablenotimpossible]

Oh ho - what's that?

[excavated]

Yeah, he actually did. I saw him working on these yesterday, actually...

[ he shoots a fond smile Shadow's way ]

Thank you, by the way.

[chaoscontrol]

And this is as far as he got? Hah...

But that's ok. I think we can finish the job.

[excavated]

Yeah. I... at least have a good guess where the first photo might go.

[anonnomnomnom]

Ah. I guess it's a good thing we have you and Holmes here.

[And Tsubasa. Did he come out of the PTSD mushrooms corner yet.

Anyway he's pretty sure he's mostly useless for this, maybe he'll just popcorn and move some pictures around unhelpfully.]

[chaoscontrol]

Don't break anything.

[anonnomnomnom]

It's like you think I've never seen photos before?

[Wow, ye of little faith. He knows how to handle paper objects?? Unless putting these in the wrong albums is going to blow us all up IT'S FINE.]
