Log:

[Under the light of the full moon, the Mysterious Feathers™ begin to glow.

In the hours that follow after they sprawl out to sleep, those who had the good fortune (or at least the insatiable curiosity) to pick up one of those feathers earlier in the week will come to discover that something very strange is happening across the regions of Johto and Kanto. There's a saying about what happens when you let your mind wander; this time, though, it's a little more than just one's mind that's going wandering, as dream after dream stretches out before you like a horizon just begging to be chased.

Don't worry about getting lost, dreamers; as real and vivid as they may seem, your surroundings are really only visions and illusions, and in the end the failsafe way to escape from them is to simply wake up. If and when you do, you might feel perfectly well-rested or as on-edge as if you'd just jolted awake from a nightmare; like the dreams themselves, there's really no telling how the experience will play out for you, being different and unique to everyone.

But for now, you've got the whole night ahead of you, filled with places to go and people to see. Might as well make the most of it while it lasts...]

Snake shakes his head no. "I have only seen Snake here, says Meredith." He looks up at the armour and together with the snake on his shoulders, tilts his head, "Aren't you hot in there? asks Meredith."

[armoredsoul]

"Ah, no, I'm used to it," Al says sheepishly, rubbing the back of his helmet. "What about you two, are you doing alright?"

[silentscales]

"Snakes like the heat, says Meredith," Snake answers simply. It was a bit warm, but his scales still protected him from the sun. He might not have horns over his eyes like Meredith, but his hair was helpful enough in that regard.

[armoredsoul]

Alphonse nods, somehow managing to convey a relieved happiness with the gesture. "Hehe, alright. I knew another snake once, but she wasn't quite as resilient to this sort of heat."

[silentscales]

Snake nods sagely, "Some snakes don't like too much heat, says Meredith." The snake tastes the air in front of her. Snake glances to her as she glances to him. They pause for a moment and then ask, "Why can't I smell you? asks Meredith." They're just curious, and Snake's voice carries that far more of that than his expression does.

[armoredsoul]

He clanks for a moment out of surprise, then shifts awkwardly. He's sure that 'Meredith' doesn't mean any harm, but his body isn't something he can easily explain--especially right now, with the Stone pulsing inside of him. "Huh? Oh, I'm...um. Just sort of special like that, I guess?"

I can hear him saying the lines it is beautiful

[Neither of them seem convinced, and Meredith tries peering into the suit from Snake's shoulders. Fortunately if she does see inside, Snake wouldn't push the question. He knows too well how it is to be different. Sure he'd be curious, but just like the folk from the circus, they'll tell you when they want to. For now though he'll just be quiet while his curiosity passes.]

[armoredsoul]

O-oh, um...!

[Oh dear oh no this is so awkward. Al shifts awkwardly, but Meredith will be able to see that there's no body inside...just a red light, dull and unnervingly alive. He watches them both, nervous for what the reaction might be.]

[silentscales]

[The two look at each other for a moment and Snake tilts his head ever so slightly. He looks back to Al,] We didn't introduce ourselves. I'm Meredith and I'm Snake, says Meredith. [Snake points to his companion and then to himself.]

[armoredsoul]

[Al relaxes again and makes a sound like a quiet sigh (good, they're not freaking out...), then nods and holds out a hand to Snake.]

I'm Alphonse. It's nice to meet you both.

[silentscales]

[Snake is briefly hesitant, but takes Al's hand and shakes it gently. He's not sure what else to say now. At least the person wasn't pointing out his scales or making fun of them.

Just pointing them out he could understand. They're strange and he knows it. He'd be tempted to point out to Alphonse that he's hollow, but it seems silly when Al probably already knows that he's hollow. Snake would say he'd seen stranger, but he hasn't. Still, it isn't his place to judge. Alphonse seems kind enough, and that's what really matters, right?]
