Journal Entry 1: A Dream Walker
My name is Ghost, I am making this journal for the record, and my own way of trying to process the odd changes going on. I had started writing about it, not realizing this would be a consistent thing. My initial thoughts will be what you read from here.
----------------------
You know, I never knew I had powers. I just assumed that I am just meant to be someone that was still helpful despite not having them. But, I have slowly began to heal from a lot of the wounds that made sleep a very unpleasant experience. I do sleep, but despite being a cat of sorts, sleeping in the past has been my least favorite activity.
I have... kind of, started to get over it, and things have been getting weird. What is weird now? Well, how dreams function now, or more so, how they don't. The dreams I now see don't belong to me. For some reason, there is just a path made out of the dreams I have once had. Everything is black and white though, and I go right through every object.
The dreams I can access only seem to be my siblings's right now, since they are on either side of me. Unfortunately, it seems like day one of being a dream walker, and I have to fix their nightmares. I already hated trying to do that for me, and now I have to do their's. My god. Caine's I already knew the deal with somewhat, so got that out of the way fairly quickly. It turns out, if one of the Caines he sees looks at him, gets up, hugs him, and says they appreciate how hard he is trying, he's good. A lot more of a simple answer than I excepted, but, whatever.
Curse's was a bit harder, and I do feel bad for them. They had a rather terrifying scenario, actually. It seemed like they were just talking to the people they love from their simulation, and slowly, over time, they just... disappear. No fanfare, no explanation, they just vanish. There one moment, gone the next. I couldn't deny reality, they are some day not going to be around anymore. So, my solution had to be more about how they processed it. I guided them to a flower field and had them collect some, and had them make a base of what would be a flower crown.
Every time one of them disappeared, I'd encourage them to put one of the flowers on the crown. It was an action to show it was going to be alright, by the end, when it was just them and me, they thanked me. Well, I said just one thing: That's just what good siblings do aside from annoy each other. Maybe this isn't so bad. I can just keep both their dreams from becoming something that hurts, rather than helps with their mental state. I am hoping my optimistic thoughts that this will be fun and fulfilling for me doesn't vanish, but I also am prepared for the fact that it might become more difficult.

OOC: Time to buckle up bois! Hopefully, we can read these and get to where we are currently are at. I just feel like I have so little time to truly experience my characters as a POV, and Sedum's has been a lot of fun. He is covered because I am doing role playing, but I decided I wanted to explore Ghost as a POV as well. Part of why Ghost is happy and gentle here is all she has to do is help her siblings, and there aren't other things getting in the god damn way.
