Tw/s: G0r3, bl00d, sh!pp!ng The Last Stand - 11 Hypno - Here goes nothing... Impulse - The dreamscape was wide and vast. Normally I wouldn't be here. I'd only been here a couple of times before... Once with the king and a couple of times with- with him. The air felt different from when I'd been here with the king. Lighter... Softer even. That meant it was him. It had been a while since he'd last taken me here. But then again- I hadn't been sleeping much lately. I- I was worried about Scott. And myself. But mostly Scott... Hypno - "Brother." I smiled. Impulse - His smile didn't quite reach his eyes. "... Hello Hypno." To tell the truth, yes. I was pretty nervous. It had been a while since we'd last talked and a lot had changed since then. With mostly me. Hypno had never been one for jokes. He always got straight to the point. Especially when I started coughing. Hypno - "Impulse?" He kept coughing, it seemed like he was in a lot of p@in. "Impulse say something. Please. Anything." Something fell from his mouth. A purple petal. Then a flower. Hanahaki...? "Do you have hanahaki?" He nodded, still mod-coughing fit. "Who's it from?" "Scott..." He managed weakly, still coughing. "As in Scott Smajor?" He nodded. I sighed. "Why do you like him?" The rest of the flowers he coughed up were thickly coated in his bl00d. Stained red. Crimson or scarlet even. Impulse - "Impulse..." "I-" I coughed again. "I'm fine." "You need a healer-" "I AM A HEALER- WHAT GOOD HAS THAT DONE ME?" Hypno flinched. "Just- Just leave. Alright?" I snapped. "You're not helping matters..." Hypno - "Wels?" "Wels isn't here." Jev sat next to me. "You okay?" "I- Sibling troubles." He gently kissed my cheek. "Impulse wouldn't mean anything bad he said to you. Ever." How desperately I wanted to believe those words...
