Dreaming on Prospit | Open to All Prospit Dreamers
When Jade woke to see her world bathed in gold, she smiled.
For as long as Jade could remember, she had dreamt here, in this golden fantasy land with spires and towers. She could fly through the air as long as she willed herself to, and she loved talking to the strange, paper-white people who lived here. They called her titles of royalty, like "princess" and "my lady," but Jade refused to be at all queen-like. She didn't care for power; she just wanted to have some fun while she dreamt, and if that meant dirtying up her golden dress a bit, then so be it!
There were others here - humans like her - whose faces she knew well at night, but faded from memory when she awoke. They weren't always here. Most of them lived in a separate building, apart from the boy who lived in the tower next to hers, and since he was sometimes asleep when she dropped by, she assumed the same must have been true of the others. Still, when they were awake, she enjoyed
Jade sat up and stretched out, letting feeling return to her body. She felt more powerful here, like she could spin the world at her fingertips if she wanted to. Not that she'd tried. (Yet.)
She poked her head out of the window of her tower and then jumped right out, soaring through the skies with a triumphant laugh. She couldn't wait to see what kind of adventures the golden kingdom of Prospit would give her today!
((OOC Note: please feel free to mingle with other people's opening posts here! Not everything has to be a direct response to Jade - this is just sort of a free-form catch-all for people that want Prospit adventures.))

Apparently, Jane was not content to make do with this new information at all.
"For instance, where exactly could we have met before for the two of us to be showing up in each other's recurring dreams? Strange familiarity aside, I'm sure I'd never seen you in the real world before the incident with Detective Jowd."
She paused.
"I mean the cat."
no subject
"And I guess it does raise some questions. I am also sure that I never knew you in real life either! But I am just as sure that this is a different kind of dreaming that we do here. For one it has a lot more internal consistency than most dreams. All of the structures, while being very pretty and dreamlike, show up in the same place! So I think it's possible to know somebody here without meeting them in real life. It's just an alternate reality that we can only access while sleeping. That's my theory anyways."
Jade paused, considering this for a moment. "Well, no. It's more of a hypothesis. So the logical thing to do is to come up with a test! To make sure that both of us are actually here and we are not just dream projections of the other person. I can pester you tomorrow with a special code phrase, and you can respond back with another special code phrase. Then we'll know for sure that this is real."

Said the skeptical skeptic, skeptically. After a moment, though, she breathed out through her nose.
"Though I suppose we've nothing to lose by making the attempt. Besides looking incredibly silly tomorrow if we're wrong, I guess. Or if one of us forgets the code before we wake up. How do you propose we make ourselves remember, when these dreams are so unreliable?"
no subject
"Well... we just need something to spark our memory, right? If I send you the code word that should be enough to spark your memory, if this is as real as it seems! As for me..."
She thought through to her room, and more specifically what she would be able to see immediately upon waking up. What greeted her every morning? Why, none other than the friendly, smiling faces of the clusters of tanglebuddies that took residence on her bed.
"Oh! I got it! I will ask you who your favorite Squiddle is! And you can respond with... Detective Jowd! As he is not a real Squiddle, I will know it is not a real answer, and it also references what we are talking about now. Does that sound good?"
