So... this might be a strange question (and hopefully one that isn't in too bad a taste considering what all just happened), but... What sorts of dreams do you have? And how did you go about deciding on them?

Dreams?

Do you mean goals?

[followyourstar]

Yeah, that kind of dream. Not the kind you need to sleep for.

[nilhilistic]

I suppose it comes down to what furthers your desires or growth as a person.

[followyourstar]

Right. It's not always easy to figure out what would be, though.

What about you?

[nilhilistic]

[ his dream . . . well, that's a foregone conclusion. ]

I have no dreams currently. Only my oath. I have reparations to see to.

[endcaller]

Ah, suffering from foul dreams are we?

I fell from the roof of my habisphere once! Hit my head, haven't had a dream since.

[He knows that's not the sort of dream Dante is talking about.]

[followyourstar]

Pretty sure you've had at least one if *I've* had one here.

That's not what I meant, though.

[And they know that he knows that. Of course, whether he knows that they know that he knows...]

[endcaller]

Oh, no, I've not had a dream. A few hallucinatory evenings spent on my back? Those I suppose I've had.

....

[A lengthy pause.]

What were we talking about?

[followyourstar]

...Yeah, you're definitely messing with me.

It's about dreams--the kind that are like goals but... bigger. I think I know what at least one of your answers to the question I had is going to be, but do you have any other dreams or goals? Any at all?

I suppose any dreams one has in this world may be different from those they have at home. My main concern is the health and happiness of my family, in a way my dream is to be with them as long as possible. Which, I'm afraid, isn't realistic while trapped here.

It seems appropriate to think about after the events of last month, but I imagine there must be a reason you're asking?

[followyourstar]

Had a "visit" not long ago. Or I was the one visiting. Not sure how to put it.

Either way, I'm supposed to be setting some sort of goal for myself while I'm here, but I'm not sure where to start.

[sinningtree]

It seems as though you've met Jerry, then. For a sentencing.

Set a goal, with no set direction or ambition? Rather than ask about our priorities, you may be better served to consider where your own lie.

You don't have anything you wish to accomplish here?

[followyourstar]

Oh, well, I was just trying to get an idea of what drives others to see if anything like that would call to me too.

But to answer your question, aside from getting back home... Not really? There's making sure I get by, too, but is that even really a goal?

you've gotta be kidding me
yeah this ain't the best time to be asking that pal
or is that an assignment from that asshat too?

[followyourstar]

Um
Kinda...
I'm supposed to come up with a goal so I'm trying to get ideas...

[rebellions]

wait
you mean you don't have one?
why the fuck are you even still alive then?

[followyourstar]

[WOW]

I don't know, why are you?

@lorem_ipsum

[memori3s]

I didn't have any. Not until I met people who made me think about what I wanted to do.

[followyourstar]

First you help me out with hobbies and now this. Not that I'm complaining, but... Thanks for responding.

What did you decide on?

[memori3s]

It's okay. I don't mind helping.

To make sure everyone I knew saw spring again.

[followyourstar]

"Saw spring?"

[nuraridouman]

It's kind of anticlimactic, but I only sort-of inherited mine.

As for why.... I was feeling petty, I guess?

[followyourstar]

You inherited a dream by being petty?

[nuraridouman]

That's what I said.

Long story short, I got so pissed off at a guy that I decided to do the one thing that even this Mr. Perfect couldn't.

[followyourstar]

Well... That's not too bad a start for a dream, I guess. I wouldn't be surprised if other people's started the same way.

What did you decide to do?
