[SUBCONSCIOUS POST!]

[capthlock_rage]

[in a field lit by the rays of the sunset, beneath a rainbow, there is a signpost. The signs are attached haphazardly, and none are identical. Some are ornate, and some in shambles, but all of them point in different directions. If you look closer to read the words, you'll see not only places, but names, dates, intangible concepts... you name it, it's there.]

[at the foot of the signpost sits Prince Zuko, working intently on what appears to be an in-progress cross-stitch that reads: "HONOR, SWEET HONOR." A tiny raincloud hovers right above his head, drizzling on him. If you squint, it appears to have a face.]


((OOC: Because I missed the subconscious post, but still wanted to play. This is open to anyone!))

[oops!]

Oo, that looks like it hurts.

[capthlock_rage]

[looks up]

... it's worth it. It has to be.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

What is? The needlepoint?

[capthlock_rage]

It's symbolic.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

[wanders over to sit next to him, letting her legs dangle freely] Symbolic of what?

[capthlock_rage]

Isn't it obvious?

[shows her the "Honor, Sweet Honor" words. It's about halfway done.]

... I think the threads look kind of bumpy.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

[looks at it curiously]

Hmmmm, so you're an honorable sort of guy?

[capthlock_rage]

It's a work in progress.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

Most things like that are~ do you think you're doing well?

[capthlock_rage]

I'm getting better. It's harder than it looks, though.

[looks down at his pricked finger :/]

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

[looking too] Does it hurt a lot?

[capthlock_rage]

[shrug]

... I've heard you're supposed to get calluses after a while. They haven't shown up yet, though.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

Whenever that happens to me, my papa kisses it better for me.

[capthlock_rage]

... You're lucky.

[suddenly, it's raining a little harder]

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

Wow~ it's too bad I forgot my umbrella~ ♪

[capthlock_rage]

Sorry. It does that sometimes.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

And here, of all places! Isn't that a little sad?

[capthlock_rage]

I guess I'm used to it.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

But it's your own head! You can control it.

[capthlock_rage]

[...blank stare]

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

[pouts at] You don't know how?

[capthlock_rage]

I've never been very good at meditation.

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

I could help teach you~

[capthlock_rage]

You could?

[the9thdream.livejournal.com]

I'm ve~ry good at getting into people's minds. ♪
