OOM: Into the dreaming

[awesome_lilly]

It's been a while.

Lilly hasn't consciously avoided the woods. It's just that, well, for a while there was nothing back here, and then with the sceptre she found other ways to get between worlds.

But now, after talking to Coop, she's been reminded that there's a world here, and it has a Lord, and she hasn't spoken to him in some time.

Lilly passes the Caribbean inlet with a single longing look and heads straight into the woods, walking until that spot where everything blurs, for a second, and she's not in the woods anymore.

"Uh."

That'd be a no.

"Kind of? But don't you have to like, actually have power first?"

Like one of those 'spend money to make money' things. Lilly's good at those!

Dream raises his eyebrows.

"It would not be the first time that veneration of the dead resulted in a fundamental change of that sort."

"...oh," Lilly manages, after a minute of staring ahead at nothing in particular.

"Well. That'll be... interesting."

Oh god, how will she even be able to tell? Is there a rash that breaks out when you get worshipped, like with chicken pox? Or do you just suddenly develop halos and look good in white? BUT SHE ALREADY LOOKS GOOD IN WHITE OH GOD IT'S STARTING MAINTAIN YOUR COOL YOU MIGHT BE A GOD NOW.

"You know, if it happens."

"If it happens," Dream agrees. "It may not."

[awesome_lilly]

Right.

"Right."

On the bright side, maybe there's a clubhouse!

"So. Um.


More tequila?"

This sounds like a GOOD IDEA to her.

"If you like," Dream says, lifting the bottle to pour, like a good host.
