Auntie..... I really don't think that it's super important

but oh.... that's a frightening dream! it sounds like a movie we could've watched?
mine wasn't anything like that....

[erythristic]

it's okay! i was the heroine!
but what did you dream about?

[constellates]

oh that's true. no one could stand up against auntie.

umm mine was much different! I think I was backstage somewhere
and wearing this really pretty dress with a few other girls... but only one was wearing one like mine
she looked nervous so I reached out to take her hand. though I did ask in japanese and russian which I found funny?
but ah my heart was beating so fast!
I was so excited....

I don't think I've ever had a feeling like that before

[erythristic]

backstage? were you going to perform something in your lovely attire? and it sounds like even in your dreams you're making friends.

[constellates]

yes... I remember wanting to see what was on the other side of the curtain
the audience, I think? or the stage
with the girl next to me... I wanted to take that step forward with her

[erythristic]

i have faith that in your dream, you did.
did you just have this dream, or was it a little while ago?

[constellates]

[considering the fact that it's a text at 2 am]

just now

[she hasn't been able to go back to sleep since she woke up]

[erythristic]

[...hm.]

is the dream bothering you for some reason?

[constellates]

well it made me think
that I wanted to experience that kind of feeling again.....
but that would mean doing things that I've never done before
and things that I don't know if I can do at all

[erythristic]

if you've never done it before, then that simply means you know where to start - at the beginning of it all. and if you don't know if you can do it, why, it's perfectly alright to try it, isn't it? what's the worst that could happen to you if you did try?

[constellates]

[her text takes time, as if her thumb was hovering over the send button before she actually worked up the nerve to press it]

I could waste people's time if I'm not good enough...

[erythristic]

you will not waste people's time. you are certainly good enough, and if they act reluctant to give you their time, you demand it until they give it. because i know you're worthy of it, and you know that too.

[constellates]

demand?
can I really do that?

[she's inspired. she is. the words are warm - but she's just... struggling a little bit.

anya gets what she wants often, though mostly through a combination of charm and luck, rather than demanding it]

[erythristic]

you can. you're more determined than i think you know.

[constellates]

I'll try to believe that auntie...

[erythristic]

that's all i could ask.

try to sleep anya. tomorrow is coming whether we like it or not.

[constellates]

okay. I'm sorry for waking you auntie. sweet dreams
