[Arthur's address to the network today is perfunctory - he's got a lot on his mind, most of which he won't be making public, but he does have one simple question to put to everyone:]

Has anyone else had any weird dreams the past couple of nights?

[BRRRRRRRM locks; 95% encryption to Ariadne and Cobb]

Eames is gone.

[Simple as that - he doesn't think he needs to elaborate. Onto the next order of business:]

I don't know what's going on, but I had a dream the other night. Not somnacin-induced. Which is even weirder, since I tested the somnacin I found on the mainland, and it seems to work normally. Aside from the dream, anyway. I'd say it's safe enough to run some other tests. We can go under together, if you want.

It's as stable as a one-level dream. [They can read into that whatever they want, as far as he's concerned.]

[ she doesn't even respond to the eames comment – there's no point – she knew there was a chance it could happen. So instead she just sighs, rubbing at the back of her neck as she works out what he said in her head. ]

How many levels did you go down?

[aloadeddie]

One level. Assuming we're already down at least one level, here, I thought it would be less stable than it actually was.

[ a faint sound of understanding slips out of her at that, before she asks: ]

What was so weird about your other dream?

[willofjustice]

Nice dreams!

[But more importantly:] Does that mean Arthur-san got to sleep?

[aloadeddie]

Nice. That's one way of putting it. [It had felt very peaceful, but that was just weird, as far as Arthur was concerned. He doesn't have peaceful dreams. Or normal dreams at all, really.]

Yeah, I must've got some sleep. That's what I mean by weird.

[willofjustice]

Does that mean you have another way to put it?

And . . . but that's good, right? That you got sleep?

[bindsthedead]

Yes... Although I can't say I disliked it. [Headache from getting a new language shoved into her skull aside.]

[aloadeddie]

Anything specific you remember about it?

[bindsthedead]

It was... peaceful. And I spoke with someone named Asti.

Good dreams or bad?

Re: text

[anything_it_takes]

[Started out bad, but Leo's not admitting to those.]

Strange.

i sa2w Asti.

[alphatar]

Weird? No. Peaceful? Definitely. Funny that you mention it. What about you?

[Giving the console's camera a wave is one very well rested Avatar with slight bedhead hair.]

I'm Korra by the way, I live in the Metal Sector.

Video

[aloadeddie]

Peaceful is weird for me. Which is sort of why I'm asking.

[He inclines his head a little, giving her a faint smile.] Arthur. We might be neighbors, then, since I'm in Metal, too.

Video

[alphatar]

[Korra’s trying to process that first sentence.] That is weird. And I mean weird-weird, not peaceful-weird. You’ve never had nice dreams, ever?

[She’s overjoyed to meet another Metal Head.] Oh whoa, I don’t see a lot of fellow foreigners in the Metal Sector. Arthur? I like it, sound foreign-y. I’m in ME-2B if you ever want to stop by for a visit. I have tea and sea prune stew! [AKA: Tea and the devil’s diarrhea.]

[epigrammatical]

"Weird"? I am not so sure of that, but curiously peaceful, I suppose.

video

[aloadeddie]

I guess for me, "peaceful" is the same thing as weird.

Maybe it's not so weird for others.

video

[epigrammatical]

I rather wish I could remember more of it; unfortunately I rarely recall my dreams in detail. [Not completely true, but who's counting.] An impression of great beauty, a suggestion of music—little more.

[candystriped]

[ Stocking did, though she's not sure she wants to talk about details. So for now she'll stick to... ]

Define "weird".

[aloadeddie]

"Weird" as in, different from the way your dreams usually are.

For instance, mine was very peaceful.

Re: video;

[candystriped]

Then... yeah.

[jirk]

I woke up craving sushi. So yeah, that counts as weird.

audio;

[aloadeddie]

Sushi? Well, that's one I haven't heard yet. I mean, I crave sushi sometimes, but after a dream?

[cynisme]

Oui m'sieur, I've had plenty of weird dreams as of late. I believe they call it sickness.

video?

[aloadeddie]

Any that were weirdly peaceful?
