the nightmare meme

[toastysocks]

Your nightmares follow you like a shadow...

You're trapped in your worst nightmare and worse yet,
you've dragged someone right along in with you.
You feel like you can't escape and any fear you've ever had
is coming true or you're being forced to watch helplessly as
someone you care about is in mortal danger or pain but you can't save them.

Whatever you fear the most can and will come true.
- Post your characters, name and series in the subject.
- Others respond after going to RNG and entering 1-7.
- TRIGGER WARNING: Some prompts may be triggering (Torture, general violence, ect.) so be mindful.

1. motions. you're trapped in your worst nightmare, forced to through the horror to completion with whoever you've drawn into your dream.
2. chased. you're both being chased by something horrible, but it feels more like you're running in place.
3. tortured. held down and tortured in every way imaginable. Can whoever else is in your dream save you?
4. helpless. you're helpless, only able to watch as the person dragged into your dream is hurt, tortured, or otherwise in danger, but you can't help.
5. tormentor. the person in your dream is not there to help, but to hurt. They are not a friend... at least not right now. Maybe they're fighting against whatever is urging them to hurt you or are taking great delight in it.
6. uncontrolled. you're hurting someone you care about and taking delight in it... or at least outwardly. Inside, you might be fighting it with everything you've got.
7. other. mix and match or make your own up.

Anakin woke from a sound sleep rather abruptly. Yavin's moon was still bright and full, shining brightly behind the screen covering the windows. A glance over revealed Poe still lost in slumber, though Anakin noted his brow was furrowed and face pale and drawn, as if he were struggling for or against something in his subconscious. He almost reached out to shake the pilot awake, but refrained, not wanting to shock his lover out of whatever dream he was experiencing.

A moment of concentration proved fortuitous, as the waves of fear and pain in the Force nearly rocked the young Jedi right out of bed, so strong were they. Now, he did reach out, but gently, placing a hand on Dameron's bare shoulder and softly calling to him, encouraging him to open his eyes, to come out of whatever nightmare hounding him so frightfully.

"...Poe?" Anakin gave the shoulder under his hand a brief shake. "Poe, c'mon, wake up, it's me, Anakin."

( honestly if you like, want your character to be trapped in a towering inferno or laugh at some broad as she burns to death repeatedly, be my guest, but she probably works better as a tormentor figure, especially for... virtually any canonmate she has any level of interaction with lol. is she actually present in someone's dreams as a sentient being, or do they just have horrible unresolved trauma? is it both?? let's find out! )

( ditto this guy! only his nightmares have a lot more to do with physically falling apart, being invaded, losing autonomy and generally suffering in the exact same way he's been responsible for in the past without giving a single fuck, etc. )
