[OPEN] And I'll dream each night of some version of you
Who: Alice Dyer (
closureisformovies), Samama "Sam" Khalid (
huntingtruths) & you!
What: Alice and Sam arrive back from their canon update
When: Early May
Where: Around, locations in prompts
Warnings: Reference to gun violence; typical horror protagonist things; specifics in headers. Magnus Protocol Spoilers up to Episode 40.
Notes: Open prompts for both Alice and Sam will be down in the comments! Body of the post is meta/closed to Sam.
It's just her luck, really. Goes to talk to some spooky external— thing and don't even die because it's dangerous, oh no, that'd be too logical. She was prepared for that risk. Getting accidentally shot by her overeager bodyguard she didn't ask for? That's the level of absurdity that her life is made of, these days, so of course that's what happened instead.
(Gwen Bouchard, when she fucking sees you again...)
The memories hit when Mortanne welcomes her back and with it, the fact that Sam was here, too, the first time, so if she's here again, then surely— maybe— she almost doesn't dare to ask but she does and Mortanne says yes, and, well, after that it's all she can do not to cry with relief.
She's alone on the ferry, except for ferryman. It's the most nervewracking few minutes of travel of her life and she spends it shifting from foot to foot, scratching at her arm, pulling at her hair—nervous, scared, anxious, excited, she doesn't know. She just knows that Mortanne wouldn't lie. So she pays her fare, steps off the boat, and then stands on the dock to wait.
She's not going anywhere until he turns up. She doesn't care how long it takes.

The way Alice says it doesn't sound like he's still missing, but ...
no subject
"I mean, by us turning back up here, sure, but nah, back home he was very much still missing. Like, had apparently tumbled into a whole separate universe through a crack in reality missing." Beat. "He's fine though. We're fine. He'll be back at work tomorrow too."
It's a weird situation that was in no way fine but it is, actually, a bit better for being here.

"I wouldn't know either and I've been living it, so, yeah, it's a mess. Until we got here I wasn't sure he'd even survived the trip but yeah, he did. So—that's good! Genuinely, yeah, this is an improvement. Like, majorly. I used to think home had less supernatural bullshit going on, but that was something we like to call—"
She makes a sweeping, Spongebob-rainbow-memesque arc with her hands.
"—clinical levels of denial! And I like this job a lot better than my old one. Don't want to kill my boss on the daily, for one."
no subject
"Yeah, definitely a plus, not regularly wanting to commit ... what would you call that? Not regicide. There's got to be a word for murdering one's employer."
no subject
"Unionising?"

Alice dramatically mock bows, then snickers. "Nah, I'm not actually sure if there's a real word for it, but there's definitely an emotion. If I ever see Bougie Bouchard again I won't be responsible for my actions. It's her fault I even died again."
no subject
"If she does show up here, I'll run interference."
no subject
"My hero," Alice says with mock hand on heart. "Her name's Gwen Bouchard, she's honestly just really annoying so long as you don't let her get a modicum of power. Now, if someone called Celia Ripley turns up someone's probably gonna have to hold me back."
Does not elaborate.
