Mission Vision -- very early in the morning of Imagination Day 6 [Video]
[ Curufin falls out of his bunk, as usual when waking from a mission vision. CRASH! He hits the floor, his blankets entangled with his legs, his right shoulder striking the floor with a thud. Luckily Elves don't break bones easily, but his shoulder is going to hurt. He scrambles to the ICP. ]
Wouldn't you know it, I've just had another prophetic dream. [ He shakes his head and drags his hand through his disordered black hair. ]
Didn't like the looks of this one, either.
I was in a jungle, and it was pleasant enough. Sun shining down through the branches, forest sounds, nice. But suddenly the light intensified, and something seemed wrong with it. I ran to the next clearing and gazed up at the sky, and what I saw was ominous. The sky had turned a glaring dark red and was getting darker by the moment. And then everything grew still, as though the world had stopped. I did not have time to react to that, or wonder what it meant. Abruptly the ground shook under my feet, and the dust rose, and there was fire everywhere, and I heard screams, screams, and more screams. And then I woke up.
Damn if this doesn't seem to me like another candidate for an aborted mission! What the hell happens to the mission world? Is it self-destructing, or is it attacked by unknown forces? Or is this some simple natural disaster?
[ Still shaking his head. He grabs for his jacket and pulls it on. ]
Did anybody else have this dream? Or any variation of this dream?

Well, some of us don't have any to begin with!
[ He's not including his connection to Naga, since that just seems.. pretty much useless here.. ]
We can't all be as fancy as you, Curufin!
no subject
Oh, who cares anyway? Time is an obsession that not everybody needs to have. Is time always on our side? Nope! Why should you be on its side?
Besides. . . [ Grin. ] That's probably a good thing, if not everybody is as fancy as me?

[ Maybe he doesn't need to go full elf, okay, Inigo thinks it'd be pretty weird to live that long, for example.. But some elf things seem to be pretty cool. ]
It's easy to start to feel like being an ordinary guy is bad when you're surrounded by so many extraordinary people like here on the train.
no subject
Oh, I dunno. I don't really think of you as being ordinary, Inigo. There's something about you that is just not ordinary. I can't pinpoint what it is, but I believe in you.
no subject
You know, maybe that's just you having a bit too much faith in me! Or just you being too nice. All I'm good at is doing my best.
