Zrishra: SASHA!!! NOOO!!!!
Zrishra bolted upwards, waking from her slumber in a cold sweat.
Yatra: Good morning :D!
Zrishra, still gasping for air, gives yatra a death glare
Yatra: What the hell did I do? I was just making us some food, leave me alone.
Zrishra: I mean, you could atleast pretend to care....
Yatra hands Zrishra a bowl of what can only be generously described as "slop"
Yatra: I mean you had a bad dream, it's fine isn't it?
Zrishra: I uh, I don't know. My dreams recently have felt more real than real life, like they skip my body and go right for my soul.
Yatra: Yea whatever that means, just eat your food.
Yatra: So, what was your dream about? You screamed out Sasha... That's the dravian, isn't it?
Zrishra: Yea... I had a dream about- about Sasha. I keep having dreams where something happens to her. It's always so, viscerally upsetting. Like I just want to scream and cry and break things. I want her to be okay and... She never is...
Yatra: You really care about her huh...?
Zrishra: I guess... I mean she was with me for the last week and a half. Always there, always checking on me.
She looks up to the sky, something she was so used to when interacting with Sasha.
Zrishra: It was weird, having an almost godlike being check on me. Making sure I was okay. I was so insignificant, compared to her. And yet she...
Zrishra looks back down, empty bowl in hand, she places it to her side.
Zrishra: It was weird, it was scary. Her entire existence is terrifyingly overwhelming. But day by day, that overwhelmingness...
Zrishra pauses for a second, thinking back to Sasha, thinking back to what happened.
Zrishra: Well I can't say it ever left, but it didn't bother me nearly as much.
Yatra: Yea. I'll be honest, even after all you said. I'm really scared to ever see a dravian. Even if they're the nicest things in all of Iskhal, there's just something like, terrifying about something so large, that it can crush you by accident.
