Video| In all my dreams, it's never quite as it seems

[ushahin]

[When the video opens up, Ushahin is lying once again inside his bathtub. It's about five o' clock in the morning, so at least he's only waking up the resident of Hadriel up at the crack of dawn instead of the middle of the night this time. He's considerate that way.]

Does anyone else hear it? The music? It's so lovely.

[There is, of course, no music. What he's hearing is the tune he's caught from passing through someone's mind while they sleep. It's had quite the effect on him.]

Music makes everything quiet inside.

[He starts humming to himself, tapping his fingers to keep rhythm. If that tune sounds somewhat familiar, well, it might have been your mind he was tapping into.]

Comments

[ushahin]

[The pop culture reference goes straight over his head. He does notice that she's not nearly as biting as she could be. He does appreciate that.]

Too late for regrets. All you can do is to move forward and do better. Also, I recommend having someone take away your device if you decide to drink again.

[bekommen]

Yeah, don't worry - I'm swearing off booze for a good long time after that. I'm prob'ly gettin' too old for that kinda dumb bullshit anyway.

[ushahin]

You are never too old to make mistakes, particularly of the foolish kind. I know that quite well.

[If age was supposed to help one reach a state of perfection, nobody had bothered to tell Ushahin.]

[bekommen]

I guess we all got that in common.

[ushahin]

Indeed we do.

[He stifles a yawn. They've been talking for quite some time and he hasn't even slept yet today. It should be getting light out any minute.]

Pardon. I think it is time for me to sleep.

[bekommen]

Yeah, that's not the worst idea. Talk to you later sometime, I guess.

[ushahin]

Good night, Nick. I will see you in your dreams.

And with that eerie sounding sign off, Ushahin turns off the device and snuggles down into his bathtub.]
