Things will get better.

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “Okay,” he said lightly, almost reluctant to let the other end the conversation. “Enjoy it! And talk to you soon.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress Mathias couldn’t hold back a laugh. “You never fail to bounce back! Go get ‘em!” he cheered happily. “But don’t worry about ‘making me listen’, you should know that I don’t mind.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “Nervous? Now why would someone like you be nervous about a thing like that?” he chuckled lightly. “There’s no need. I’m sure he’ll take a liking to you.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “I will... at least to Seven, okay?.... I don’t know how Ray would quite take it just yet... But I’ll let you know as soon as we’re back and you can greet him yourself,” he said, his tone holding more of a warmth to the last sentence.

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress Mathias paused for an obviously hesitant moment before speaking in a slightly wavering cheerful tone. “I’m surprised that you remember those names... I only told you once....... They’re alright... Ray’s still suffering... but he seems to be getting a little better.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “Eh..? Ah.... Sorey that you were worried... Things got... a little strange for a while... But they’re looking hopeful, so we should all be back soon.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “What do you mean?” he asked warmly. “Dreams are hard to remember after all, and you don’t have to apologize for something that happened in one.... But I definitely think that you should talk to someone else about those dreams though, I’m not the best to go to with those things.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “............. It...” He tried to speak, voice coming out strained for a moment before he cleared his throat. “It.. certainly seemed that way... More recent dreams are similar, but I think the love calmed down a bit... You’d become more like family...”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “I... can’t really say.... For me, there were a lot of first meetings... But that’s how dreams go sometimes, right? Haha...”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “And I’d tease you about it sometimes,” he laughed. “Even though it was a dream, I’m sorry about that.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress He laughed a little louder at that. “You weren’t very subtle in my dreams either, every time I would stop by to see Jumin you’d mumble about how being there was too stuffy and telling me to be sure to keep Elizabeth’s hair away from you.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress He laughed along with the other, slowing down to a ln airy chuckle after a little while. “... I’ve had a few dreams like that too... Some.. just peaceful mornings with a cup of coffee before you go off to rehearsal... Sometimes it’s for a musical, others for a tv show...”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “‘Usually’ being the key word,” he teased gently.

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “Haha.. That sounds very much like you... Pretty realistic, huh...?” Mathias’s tone was softer, unbearably warm as well- just as if he were recalling a faint memory that had meant a lot.

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “Yeah, I can understand that.... I’ve had.. oddly detailed dreams before,” he chuckled weakly. “Telling someone about them helps sometimes though.”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “.... Sure.. if you don’t mind telling me things like that....” The apprehension and tension were fairly clear, though his voice remained soft and controlled. “Have... you told anyone else?”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress It took an odd pause before Mathias answered, a strangely soft smile in his tone. “No, you’re not boring at all. I think I know that feeling pretty well,” he chuckled lightly as well. “But... why are you telling me this?” A small bit of apprehension hung in his voice...

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress “Huh.? It..... That was when I first entered the chat suddenly, remember?” he asked, not sure where this was trying to lead.

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress A bit of relief eased the tension in his voice, but... it was still guarded. “Okay.... But... Something’s been bothering you?”

[✉️MC @MysMesMan]

@silveredtress Mathias stopped dead in his tracks, his voice held tension masked with more confusion. “What do you mean...? You okay?”
