...again?

*Setsuna is about to say something else, but then the feed cuts off*

[Setsuna is standing on a cliff in the orange light of the setting sun as waves crash beneath him and the wind whips at his scarf - it's all very dramatic. You can hear his voice, though it doesn't seem to be coming from his mouth.] My name is Setsuna F. Seiei... a Gundam Meister of Celestial Being.

Yes, I am Gundam. [A pause] No... [From nowhere, he whips out a helmet/facemask recognizable as the GN-001 Exia.] I was Gundam!

Toh! [With a shout, he jumps into the air, lifting off with a very visible trail of GN particles and the sound of thrusters]

[From here, the dream gets a bit fuzzy - there's glimpses like Neil Dylandy bouncing back and forth next to a sunflower, Allelujah with both of his bangs in front of his face, and then the dream clears up to see Tieria... getting his head knocked off and replaced by Haro.]

[Setsuna is suddenly standing in front of Tieria.] Marry me.

[The purple-haired Meister's head once again is replaced by that of a Haro, and his voice sounds like it's coming through a filter:] 'Is it okay that I'm a robot?'

[Setsuna once more dons the Exia helmet.] I'm a Gundam myself.

[Another set of blurred, rushed images - Allelujah crying in a spotlight next to a pile of what looks like DVD cases, an angry Lockon holding a bowl of rice, A tiny cat popping out of Haro and dancing, and a little Panda with hair that is unmistakably that of Soma Peries furiously eating bamboo.]

[The last shot is of the four Meisters against the sunset, only Neil isn't leaving a shadow. And then, the dream ends.]

*Setsuna sounds more confused than tired* What was...?

(Based off of this 00 S2 promo, only the parts involving characters in Somarium)

( In which Setsuna dreams about not being able to sleep (Public) )


*quietly* Hm.

( Public (Major spoilers for Gundam 00 first season) )



His breathing is ragged, almost gasping. "W... why...?"

( Public! Open to everyone! )

-- *quiet, rhythmic breathing. Setsuna frowns, rolling over onto his side. What an odd dream.*

((OOC: Note the head))

(To Euphemia li Britannia)

Euphie.

Lockon Stratos and Allelujah Haptism have both ... somehow ... become 10 years old. Lockon does not seem to recognize me or have any knowledge of the future. I do not suspect Allelujah is any different.

What should I do?

The wind howled, whipping sand and grit across his body and face. Setsuna didn't know why he was out here in the desert, the sandstorm stretching around him in every direction, but something told him he needed to keep walking. He couldn't stop now. So he pulled the scarf tighter around his face, adjusted the goggles he wore to protect his eyes, and kept on trekking onwards.

Amidst the brown, there was a sudden flash of pink that caught Setsuna's eyes, even through the dirty goggles he wore - there it was again. Setsuna changed course, keeping an eye on the brief glimpses of color ... when he got close enough, he could tell it was a flower - from what he could see, it was solitary, without any other flowers nearby. How strange. It was a bright, cheerful pink that even the lashes of the sandstorm couldn't break, and when he found himself reaching out for it, he stopped reflexively, unwilling to touch it lest he break whatever charm kept it standing through the storm.

So, he just crouched there, watching the flower, until the sun set...

( Public Dream Time! Lol PTSD )

......

I don't understand some people.

New Years' was good.

A gunshot - it was the same dream again. The one he always had. He always missed that first shot, no matter how many times he dreamt of pulling the trigger.

The second shot ... a man groaned and slumped over. The man's voice... he could remember that final gasping moan better than he could any laugh or angry yell. Every time, the same sounds, the same events. It had been this way as long as Setsuna could remember.

Soran! ... why?

Her voice.

Why, Soran?! Why??

She... was crying. She was always crying. He hadn't cared, back when he'd had the power to pull the trigger. And now, now that he did care - would have given anything to take the tears out of her voice - he had no power over whether or not he would fire. He always fired.

The third shot.

Her crying stopped.

He was awake now, the only sound in the room his ragged breathing.

[Hesitant at first, as if he's not sure how to work this thing]

Setsuna F. Seiei, recording message.

I have discovered a small rabbit in the bushes near my temporary residence. It appears to be very young... there were other rabbits nearby, but they were all dead. I believe one to be the mother - they were all most likely killed by creatures during the last few days.

The rabbit is very small, and I have wrapped it in a scarf to keep it warm. It woke up earlier, but has not eaten anything.

Lockon Stratos, if you can hear this, what do I do? 

Hola hola!

( I-It's a Gundam...! )
