Picrew credit

Consider this a light teaser for my next chapter of But I Am Not Done Yet. Which has, after like a month and a half, finally been drafted. It still needs an edit pass but it is finally typed!

Meet Shiyo Ubetsu, the next Dreamer that Reala's going to interact with, reworked from an absolutely ancient (circa about 2010/2011) OC of mine. 22 years old, Japanese-American California-based rave gal, though the picrew doesn't do justice to the amount of kandi she's actually wearing. (She genuinely hangs around the rave scene to vibe to the tunes and make friends, her favorite thing to do is trade kandi. She's not a Lucid, but is still a lucid dreamer.)

I genuinely enjoy writing Reala having to deal with Visitors and have to be nice about it. Meeting a new human is not the only thing Reala has happen next chapter, but Shiyo definitely derailed my original draft to show off yet another way that humans are gonna human and include Nightmaren when they can behave and be nice :P

#fic related things;#i should really get a full ref of all my dreamer ocs done at some point #i keep needing more of them for plot purposes #they're supposed to be incidental but they keep stealing the doodily darn spotlight orz #shiyo's at least a little nb she just hasn't realized it because of the lack of common usage of the term in fic era (2009)#entirely her california-based thing is because i wanted to bring up bubble tea #and when i lived in california briefly in the early 2000s bubble tea was a thing there since it wasn't always a widespread thing stateside #also her character voice takes some elements from my valley girl take on coco atarashi from twewy because it just. happened lol
