Dreamwalking [open to multiple]

[brink]

Topher is dreamwalking. It's a trick he picked up when he came through the rift in San Francisco, and he's gotten quite good at it since then. He's not quite able to pick a specific dreamer's mind yet, but he's learnt how to visit only those who've been significantly affected by the rift, either by coming through it, or being changed by it.

He jumps from one mind to another, looking for rifties he hasn't met, at least not in dreams. These days he barely sleeps at all without jumping from mind to mind, perhaps because he's lonely. Christmas hadn't exactly helped.

Some people will barely notice he's there, but there are those who do, who recognise him as an outside element rather than a figment of their own mind. Having a certain amount of control over his avatar while in dreams, he chooses to appear as a hooded ranger, straight out of a fantasy novel. Mostly because he thinks it looks badass, and stops him from being recognised easily.

[OOC: Anyone feel free to make a thread with their character asleep and dreaming, and suddenly having Topher appear in their head. Whether they'll be lucid or not, or what they're dreaming about, is up to you.]

Daine scowls, wishing Morpheus would just leave her alone. All this talk of cages has her in a foul mood. He doesn't seem to have anything helpful to say unless you count the part about him trying to protect folk like her, and she has serious doubts about the sort of 'protection' she could expect from a dream god who can't even leave the island and thinks caging her might be a good idea.

"So long as no one tries to cage me, there won't be any ruction," she says. It's not a promise, but it's a fair prediction. Folding her arms, she adds, "Anything else you wanted to say?" She's definitely being snippy, now, but she's had enough of meddling gods for one evening.

He smiles (even if she can't see it, she can probably feel it) and gives a deep bow. "I see you are tired of my company. I bid you farewell," he answers. And then vanishes into thin air.
