[Alice looks into the camera, looking underslept. She never did go back to sleep after waking up several hours before sunrise.

More than that, however, she's determined to tug on this thread she's been given.]


I have a question for any of the Mirrorbound who are still left: did any of you have a strange dream last night?

I ask because I did. It felt as vividly real as the other times we've been pulled into dreamscapes, but this time I was alone. I was called to a large and pulsating flower in the forest by my own voice, which promised me whatever I wanted if I just stepped into it.

And then I woke up with this.

[She shows her right hand to the camera. It's marked with a flower (a striking a crimson against her pale skin, but that detail is obfuscated by the watch's sepiatone) that looks somewhat like a pitcher plant.]

I'd like to hear from anyone else this may have happened to, and compare notes.

[ This doesn't feel like something they can ignore for long, even if they do acknowledge that it's a trap. If this flower is some kind of death sentence, at least they'll be able to look out for each other, if one of them needs to pull the other back from the brink.

Zack nods, relieved that they're not even acting like they might let this all pass by with no response. It's not in his nature, and he doesn't think it's in Alice's either. ]


Aww, I thought you'd never ask. [ He winks at her, but then his expression evens out. ] And if anyone else who got the same dream wants to come too, I'm down for that. There's probably strength in numbers, right?
