Sollux sighed, reassured by the contact, and closing his eyes as if that would help him focus. It was dark either way, but there was something about muscle memory that prompted his brain to get his shit in order.
"It starts out really good - me and Tav are at the park, right? Just fucking around and taking a walk. Tav likes to be out around nature and shit it's disgusting but I love him." Sollux shook his head slightly, fondly, before it faded in the chill of his nightmare.
"He'd picked me a flower, almost fell out of his chair doing it, and it blows away so I'm running after it like I'm in a black and white film going after my hat. I come back, and Vriska is standing over Tavros, shaking him."
Sollux swallowed convulsively, feeling sick to his stomach.
"She can control minds, you know? Make people do shit. And next thing I know I'm - I fucking threw him on the ground. Kicked the shit out of him. The next bit is kind of blurry, I don't know, I can't quite remember it. They were fighting for control of my brain, but I heard birds, and then Vriska screaming. She yells something, I can't remember what, I'm not sure if I could even understand it when she said it."
He took a deep breath, his stomach roiling.
"I... you ever have that moment, when you know exactly what you need to do, and it makes more sense than anything else ever has, even if it's the fucking stupidest thing you've ever thought of? It was like that.
"I break my glasses in half, and I fucking..." Sollux squeezed her, feeling like he's going to throw up, but the pressure of her touch somehow made him feel better.
"Anyways. I don't remember much of the dream after that, it gets kind of dark and blurry and I get a horrific freaking migraine. I think that's what it was actually, just got the onset of a migraine in my sleep."
