42 dreams - Action

[dreamsofnoah]

[A dark, vast cavern of nothingness, no walls visible in any direction.

The very centre of it is illuminated, not by candles for once, but by an unseen source of light. A gentle creaking fills the space as an old rocking chair moves gently backwards and forwards. Seated in the chair is a large man, glasses obscuring his eyes and his mouth frozen in a gigantic grin.

And in his lap a little girl with dark gray skin and golden eyes, crosses marking her forehead. She smiles as the chair continues rocking the two of them, and over the creaking a soft melody can be heard, Road humming the tune in time to the movements of the chair.]


((ooc: open for anyone to interact (the Earl won't be speaking to anyone). I'll treat each thread as a separate incident. She's also perfectly aware that she's currently inside a dream.))

[Shinigami do have this way about coming and going- and that's how he comes to this place- suddenly, there]

I do so love that tune.

[dreamsofnoah]

[She doesn't seem surprised at all at his sudden arrival, and gives him the cute yet friendly smile she reserves for the people she's particularly fond of.]

It's the Earl's favourite. We sing it together sometimes.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

I can see why~

[and he seems at ease in a sickish sort of dream like this, smiling so wickedly]

[dreamsofnoah]

It'll be such fun when we do~ find it. The best party ever.

[She thinks it only natural that Grell be at ease in a place where she is. And even though it's not one of her usual dreams, she still has her powers, and imagines a comfortable chair for him so he can sit close to them.]

I think I should get a rocking chair for my room.

[Oh, what a dear. He takes the seat, legs crossed rather lady-like, and chin resting in his gloved hand]

It's always a good addition. So calming, hmm?

[dreamsofnoah]

[She leans towards him over the arm of the rocking chair, and the Earl reaches out to steady her so she doesn't topple over.]

Mmhmm~. Just like home.

[What a good Daddy~]

And if you ever need someone to rock you, you know who to call~~

[dreamsofnoah]

[She nods her head.]

And to sing me to sleep too~?

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Of course.

I would be a pitiful mother if I didn't.

[dreamsofnoah]

[She looks thoughtful at that, remembering the pretend family she left back home. Her father was family of course, but Tricia was just...ugh. Road didn't know why they needed her.]

Grell's so~ much better than the one I have at home.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, good.

[He giggled, uncrossing, recrossing his legs]

[dreamsofnoah]

I wonder if I could take you back home with me.

[insert mental images of putting Grell in a suitcase to haul him off home with her]

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Now wouldn't that be a fun trip?

Much more fun that being punished by William, as fun as that is.

[dreamsofnoah]

Ooh~, it would be.

I'm sure there'd be so~ many fun things for Grell to do.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, I can just imagine~ The people from your world seem just as fun.

[dreamsofnoah]

They are~. So much fun and games.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

And now my dear Sebas~chan is here to play, too.

[dreamsofnoah]

We're both ever~ so lucky to have our favourite playthings here.

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Aren't we just?

[dreamsofnoah]

Shall we make the most~ of it?

[deathbutler.livejournal.com]

Of course.
