Well, there's that and the part where human minds are designed to forget things, but yes - I know what you're saying.

What was different about this one, though?

[nostabbing]

Archie got hit by a car.

[ardent]

...I don't understand.

[nostabbing]

My cat, Archie. He got hit by a car. I mean, run over by a...you know.

[She frowns a little.]

I named Archie after my dad.

[ardent]

...So you wouldn't...

[...Oh.

It takes him a moment, but he nods eventually; now she's got him thinking about this, what on earth.]

...Mine involved a person I didn't recognize tonight. There was no sense of familiarity at all, not even when I woke up, but she featured very heavily in the dream and I never really got to know her any.

That usually doesn't happen, either.

[nostabbing]

It's like...like it makes too much sense. Like there's too many steps in the "make sense" chain for it to just be a dream.

So you dreamed about somebody you don't know?

[ardent]

Something like that, yes - it was about my Misdreavus. Apparently in the dream I was having, she was someone who died because of me, before becoming a ghost here.

However, I didn't recognize the girl at all, and I don't...dream about things like that.

[nostabbing]

So we both dreamed about dead people. And purple.
