The College Years - Gone Dancing

And, as Nailah managed to focus which one she was thinking on, all of Samantha's hair went stark, snowy white.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 11:16 am

There. That's probably better for getting some rest. I hope so at least...

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 11:19 am

The ripples if anything seemed more frequent now, as Samantha's body picked up on every stray thought of her roommate's.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 11:26 am

Okay maybe not. Shoot, the one who said she negotiates between the two never told me her name... It should still work though right? Names are just words...

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:20 pm

Samantha's hair flowed into raven black, and the ripples seemed to stop.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:25 pm

That's better! she smiles and settles down again, happy to just watch the mob of now black hair spread over her shoulder as Sam sleeps.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:30 pm

And she did sleep, for awhile longer. Her form seemed rather stable now, and eventually she stirred, her eyes fluttering open.

"Mmph... good morning."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:34 pm

"Morning." she smiles. "Slept well?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:34 pm

"Aye," she said, then blinked in confusion as a lock of black hair fell in her eyes.

"...how long has it been like that?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:40 pm

"For a bit. It was kinda going all over the place for a while. Well, between red, black and white anyway."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:41 pm

"That's... odd," she mumbled as she shifted herself back into her usual shape.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:44 pm

"You might have been reacting to my thoughts. I think."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:46 pm

"Ah, well I suppose that's... harmless enough."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:50 pm

"It's the ones I saw in my dream, aren't they?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:55 pm

"I don't know. I didn't see the same things as you, remember?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:58 pm

"Well that's what it seemed like. When I was thinking about Nemain your hair turned white."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 12:59 pm

"That's one of the Morrigan's names..."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:00 pm

"Is... Badb another one?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:01 pm

"...aye. Badb, Macha, and Nemain."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:02 pm

"That must be the black haired one then. Macha. She never told me her name."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:03 pm

"And you saw them in my head, then? Well... I suppose I saw at least one of them."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:09 pm

She nods. "And last night, though that was only Badb."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:11 pm

"Aye, and she's... odd."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:15 pm

"Little intense, yes..." she says, trying to ignore the fact that she had been happily going along with it.

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:16 pm

"But we're not... reading too much into that, aye?"

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:22 pm

"It was just a crazy dream."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:25 pm

"Aye. At least you don't think I'm crazy," she said, ruffling Nailah's hair as she climbed out of bed.

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:29 pm

"So you never noticed the other two?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:31 pm

"In the first dream, there was just me, Nailah. In the second dream... well I guess it was me, but mad."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:37 pm

"Guess that's what Macha meant... That it takes the three of them to be you."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:38 pm

"Sounds... about on par with the metaphors you find in someone's mind."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:43 pm

"Makes sense. Guess it's just hard to look into your own head."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:45 pm

"Except in dreams, apparently."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:49 pm

"Well... yeah, I guess. It's weird though, it's almost like you have a set stage."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:54 pm

"Aye. 'Where the Wild Things Are,' apparently."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:56 pm

"She did mention beasties. Or... you did."

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 1:58 pm

"We... weren't really alone in that forest, I could tell."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:00 pm

"So they're part of Badb then? Or are they something else?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:07 pm

"Nailah, I don't even know."

by **Nailah Weaver** » Fri Jul 06, 2012 2:23 pm

"Right, of course. Sorry..."
