I'd noticed that I had a few PMs from
Mith regarding something that may or may not have gone on between me and
Eomer. I ignored them, partly because I had a dinner date with
the phantom's family, and I was running a bit late, and partly because I had no idea what she was talking about and figured I could sort it out later.
At
the phantom's: his mother and father look suspiciously like my aunt and uncle, though they most definitely are not, and the phantom most definitely isn't my cousin, and lo! there is an adopted baby in his household as well as theirs. While his mum cooks dinner, his dad plays with the baby in the extremely elaborate dining room (think long dark wood table, heavily ornate, with high backed chairs and oil paintings on the walls).
I wander the house and come across-
His pretty blond sister in the shower!
Mildly embarassed, I tell myself it wasn't my fault, because she was showering with the door open, and I really couldn't have avoided seeing her without her clothes on, not unless I'd stayed in the dining room or something...
After dinner - which flew by in the sort of rush only dreams can provide -
the phantom and I were upstairs. Fade to black.
Next thing I know, I'm at home (dream home, which resembles nowhere I've ever been), and I'm on the Downs and I check my PMs, and there are like 13 new ones. There are the three from
Mith about me and
Eomer, then there are two from people who want to know the truth of what happened in that fade-to-black moment, and there's one from
Morsul saying something completely unrelated to any of it, and (gasp!)
The Barrow-Wight himself sent me a PM titled 'teh Phantdom???' And some newbs have also sent me PMs that want to know things about me, and then-
I wake up.
