March 11th - Dreamless Sleep - @wolfstarmicrofic - word count: 446
The potion stood on the beside table, a distinctive shade of purple. It was both a promise and a threat. The promise was of a dreamless sleep, the type of which Sirius found hard to come by since his time in Azakaban. The threat came in the form of Remus' words as he entered the room and saw Sirius eyeing the concoction with suspicion.
"You will drink it."
Sirius raised an eyebrow. Remus' occasional sterness, even now, could make Sirius bristle. In their youth it had lead to frequent misunderstandings. Sirius had found it a most unlikeable quality in someone he considered a friend.
But this was before... before age and experience had mellowed Sirius' temperament a little. Before Sirius had become more intimately acquainted with Remus' true nature behind the sometimes brittle facade.
"You always could be bossy," Sirius teased. Remus looked a little churlish, although his expression instantly softened when he caught the humour in Sirius voice when he continued, "I'm not sure I missed that whilst in Azkaban."
Remus sat down on the bed beside Sirius, passed a hand wearily through his hair, and said with a slight smile, "You've borne it mostly without complaint. You just don't like it when I'm right."
"Hmmmmph." Sirius made a dissatisfied noise. Just because he knew the sense in what Remus was saying didn't mean he had to like it. Although he knew it was stupid, it felt like defeat somehow; that he would need to resort to a magical intervention to chase away the nightmares. But it was becoming a problem; a problem he couldn't face down on his own. Only his pride had stopped him trying it until now. But Remus had insisted.
As if sensing all of this, Remus reached out and placed a hand on Sirius' shoulder.
"It isn't weakness to accept help when it is needed," Remus said. Sirius felt a fluttering in his stomach at the way Remus looked at him. He really did have the kindest eyes Sirius had ever seen. "If it were me or Harry, you would tell us something similar."
Sirius gave a short bark of laughter at the truth in Remus' words.
"Yes. But you forget how truly great I am at dispensing advice I don't then follow myself," Sirius said.
Remus laughed a little. Sirius sighed and stiffled a yawn. Remus went to withdraw his hand when Sirius suddenly seized it and, gripped by a vulnerability he didn't care to conceal, asked, "Stay awake when I take it until I fall asleep, will you? It helps...to know you are there."
Remus smiled, gave Sirius' hand a light squeeze, and nodded.

Prompt 11 - Dreamless Sleep
@wolfstarmicrofic March 11, word count 141
Ever since Sirius had fucked up, he’d been taking Dreamless Sleep potion. He was lucky he was such a good brewer as he didn’t think old Slughorn would hand any over to him.
Remus’s hurt, betrayed face haunted his dreams, as they rightly should do. But after a month of barely any sleep. He’d given in and taken the potion. But in the end, it didn’t matter because the image of Remus’s face began haunting his waking hours as well. 
He’d tried so many times to apologise, but Remus wouldn’t let him get the words out. He’d even hit Sirius with a silencing charm when he’d cornered him out in the courtyard. James kept telling him to give him space. But Sirius couldn’t do that because a day spent away from Remus Lupin was far worse than being ignored by him.

obviously if i talked about sun-rize i have to post about the original girlies, aka dreamLess SLEEP aka my bandori oc group
nami suzuki:
Tumblr media
leader and dj of the band, nami is reserved and often unnoticed. she isn’t used to socializing, as she lives alone and has for most of her life, as well as not really having friends. she seems detached from most things due to both depression and not wanting to become attached only to lose the things and people she loves.
kiyoko aiuchi:
Tumblr media
a free-spirited, cheerful bassist, kiyoko joined the band on a whim as a way to better her own skills. she takes it as her personal mission to get nami used to the world, but understands that it’s hard for her. she’s gay about it. insecure about her own skills and has a tendency to take this out on others. a little bossy, but only because she loves her friends and wants what’s best for them.
sayaka hitachi:
Tumblr media
vocalist and guitarist of the band, sayaka often comes off as cold and unapproachable. she pushes people anyway because she thinks she doesn’t need anyone but herself. can be controlling only because she feels like she has none in her own life, often butting heads with what kiyoko feels is best.
aoi ishikawa:
Tumblr media
warm and caring, aoi is the older sister figure slash keyboardist of the band. she clashes with sayaka a lot of the time, as the oldest two of the band, due to their opposing ideals and personalities. very well known and loved around town. deeply passionate about the band and the first one besides nami to really take it seriously.
nanako ikutsuki:
Tumblr media
drummer and resident gamer of the band, nanako is childish and often seen as immature. despite this, she’s a little short-tempered, getting angry when people don’t listen to her or treat her like a child. viewed as the band’s moral support due to her nearly unwavering positivity, though she learns that not everything is sunshine and rainbows.

Fear comes from the unknown which is Cosmic Horror, most of us can relate to being helpless.
However, we do not have an equivalent of species of sentient ants to crush accidently when we get too tilted by being weak.
People relate to be powerless, not being a god.
THIS IS WEAK SAUCE NIGHTMARES.
LIKE THE ANCIENT JUICE LEFT IN THE BACK OF THE FRIDGE THAT IS COMPLETLY UNRECONISABLE UNTIL FURTHER EXAMINATION.
THE OWL HOUSE WAS ALWAYS WAS A SLIGHTLY DARKER SHOW.
I MEAN PETRIFICATION! A CLASSIC WORSE THEN DEAD FATE/
THERE'S NOT EVEN A SINGLE MUSICAL NUMBER!!!
YA KNOW A MUSICAL SHOW SO SARRICINE SWEET AND PASTEL.
A HINT IT ALSO HAS A GOOPY HORROR CERVINE.
THAT IS 100% GRADE AAAAAAAAA!!!!!! NIGHTMARE FUEL
WITH A TRUELY DISTURBING SONG NO LESS.
"Hide all your little ones"
Tumblr media
For me, personally, this scene where the Collector describes his experiences with the Titans is the scariest scene in the entire show.
Just imagine the poor Titans watching in horror as their friends and family are plucked out of existence by a force that's beyond their knowledge and understanding.
And the only person who does understand (The Collector) can only watch helplessly as the people they've grown the love are snatched away by their manipulative, good-for-nothing siblings.
It's funny how this "kid's show" manages to be scarier than most horror movies.

Hi it’s me again! I’m obsessed with the Necromancer Hyrule, as you might tell. Do you envision this to be a two-character story? Psychological horror or otherwise?
If you can choose a title for its theme song of end score that plays when the credit rolls… what would that be?
Yep and it's definitely psychological horror with Hyrule's desperation with finding remains of whoever brother he can to revive and Legend slowly realizing the harrowing situation he's in XD
A title of a theme song when the credits roll huh? Hmmm– maybe something like "may your sleep be a dreamless one"

do the starclan angels get to taste the culinary evolutions their descendants cook up? do they ever watch their great grandkids salting something and think "damn that looks agreeable"
Sadly there are downsides to being dead. They can still eat and cook the prey in StarClan offerings, but they can't taste of the mortal plane any longer.
There is ONE exception. Sacrificial offerings can be tasted. Tasting these offerings as a spirit can sometimes have... unintended effects.
Nothing magical, but suddenly, it hits you again that the afterlife isn't the same as being alive. There's flavors you haven't experienced in years. Mass returns to your lips and paws. You realize that you aren't breathing, and for a twinge of a second, your chest surges with the warmth of a beating heart.
Angels who died young are usually alarmed and unsettled by eating such offerings, and won't partake more than once. To others it's a comfort. Many cry after their first experience, so perhaps, unknowingly for the living, it's why it's so common to make food sacrifices during droughts.
