RATHER SLEEP [ ☾ ] HALFSHADE

[Swansong]

( ☁︎ )　 Swanpaw has been drifting in and out of consciousness for longer than he can measure now. The days pass in a blur, a senseless daze of pain and delirium, dreams and reality blending into a hazy miasma.

This dream is different.

Blue eyes blink open with a clarity that's been missing for far too long. There's an ease to it, existing like this. More vivid even than his usual dreams, somehow brighter, realer, more vibrant. The landscape swims around him in strange shimmering shades. It feels just on the verge of reality, yet somehow more. It's the marsh, almost. It feels almost more alive than it does in the waking world. He knows it's a dream, this time. It doesn't change much.

He's walking. Wandering. Eyes sweeping over the dreamy landscape. It's beautiful, really. Like a good memory.

And there's someone here. He knows this, knows, who it is, in the way that one often does in a dream. That strange kind of intrinsic knowledge, almost supernatural in its presentation. His voice comes soft and warm as he calls out to her, stopping his leisurely peace. "Mama...?"

I WANNA BE HAUNTED ☁︎ I WANNA BE LOVED ! 【 10.1.23 】

  ☾ — A PALE, ELEGANT CREAM TABBY WITH PERIWINKLE BLUE EYES.
  An unusually pretty tom draped in near-white. Ghostly stripes curl across his fine-boned form, fur remaining always clean and well-groomed despite the muck of his home. Swanpaw bears a distant look to his eyes, a smile just a touch too vacant. He carries a weight far too heavy for one so young.
