[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.

no subject
Alice sighs. "Yeah. All we've got in this place is what each other knows."
Which is more, in many ways, than she had before. No one at home knows a damn thing. Even Sam was only getting so much out of the people he met on the other side of the portal. So, on one hand, it's sort of an improvement. On the other, they can't actually investigate any of this shit.
"Thanks, though. I know uh— well I was gonna give you a hard time for indulging Sam, before, but we ran out of the luxury of ignoring this stuff months ago. I just... didn't realise in time, I guess."
probably about a good spot to wrap!
A beat, and he furrows his brows gently.
"...If he does mention anything strange he's picked up, do let me know, will you? I can only imagine with the track record he's got so far, it's only a matter of time. I just hope whatever he gets his hands on isn't too bad."
wrap!
"Christ that'd be just like him," she groans, but nods. "Yeah, yeah, I'll keep an eye out. Best I can, anyway."
There's only so much she can do to rein him in, even now. Let's hope he keeps his grubby mitts off dangerous things.
