What is this crap?
Literally just a few moments ago Addison was having a very nice dream; birds had been flying overhead at a park where he'd been sitting under a grand oak. He had dozed off, consequently landing him in his own personal little hell-hole. He was more confused than frightened; this sort of thing didn't usually happen. He took in his surroundings, panic pricking at the back of his mind. The oak he'd been dozing off against was still the same, however the sky was considerably darker, like nighttime without the moon and stars to illuminate the skies with their warm presence. The park was the same, everything but the sky was the exact same... except for a few minor details. Not a single sound pierced the sky except for the soft sound of wind blowing in his ears. The temperature had also dropped considerably; Addison could see his breath clouding with each exhalation. Everything seemed to be frozen in darkness.
Addison stood up, figuring that there was no point in just sitting around. Maybe he wasn't the only person here. Maybe someone knew what the hell was going on. He began to walk at a slow pace as he look to and fro at his surroundings, trying to spot even one more difference in the scenery. But he couldn't find anything, except for the lack of fake children that had been playing only moments earlier. He had noted, however, that swings were frozen in the air, as if gravity decided to take a break for the day. Other than that, however, it was almost as if nighttime had approached as normal.
After a while Addison could feel a nudge in the back of his head, a familiar feeling of his "wild side" as he called it, trying to escape from its mental prison. He decided that now would be a good time for this "person" to show himself. He sighed, holding back any restraint that he had taught himself over the years, and let his wild self take over for now. This helped him feel a little less panicked, even a little confident. This was demonstrated as he called out,"Hello? Am I the only one out here?" He stood in place as he awaited a response, hoping that the stillness of the world would help his voice be easier to here.

Can't wake up in sweat 'Cause it ain't over yet Still dancing with your demons (Victim of your own creation) Now this? Oh, this was amazing. The little Luxen had been yearning for some fun, to let herself be free, lose herself in a true nightmare. And this? Oh, this was beautiful! The dark, starless sky hung mercilessly in the air. Everything seemed frozen in time. And not just that, but frozen in general. She was right at home, minus say a bit of snow and ice. The cold air tickled her face as the wind ruffled through her hair. The blue locks swirled around her face but she didn't seem to feel a thing. The cold was pleasant to her, inviting, like it wanted to wrap it's arms around her and keep her safe. She loved it!
Luana couldn't help but wonder whose nightmare this was. It was such a gorgeous nightmare and she loved it! But she would love it so much more if she could find the toy who owned it. She kept her footfalls silent as she moved through the park, her eyes wandering about, looking for any signs of life. But there was nothing. At leadt there wasn't until she saw the swings.
The little Luxenbris grinned at the sight of them. They might be frozen but maybe with a little nudge, she could make them unfreeze so she could play on at least one. No, she wouldn't do that. Instead, she moved silently over to them and climbed onto the highest frozen one before posing as if she had been frozen there as well. Her eyes, however, shifted until she noticed the boy and heard him call out. Well, well, well, wasn't he a cutie! "Hello? Am i the only one out here?" she echoed before freezing in her spot.

What was that?
Addison froze in place at the female voice that echoed his own. At first he thought he was hearing things, maybe the voice was the product of this nightmare. He thought that maybe the nightmare had changed his gender and looked down at his hands. They were still the same, so he moved them to his chest; flat. If it weren't for the situation he was in he would've chuckled at himself, however a sudden familiar feeling began to bother him instead. It was one he'd felt only a few times in his entire life, but he knew it well. If he didn't know better he would've blamed it on the nightmare, but it was undoubtedly the dread that only Luxenbris could bring. He turned to try and find the source of the dreadful cloud that seemed to choke him, but the only person he saw was a girl sitting on one of the frozen swings he had passed moments ago.
Wait a minute... was she there earlier? Addison's oddly-colored eyes narrowed in suspicion as he studied the girl. No, he totally would have noticed her if she was there... right? Addison spoke in a hesitant but accusing tone,"Nice one. You had me going for a second there." He gave a nervous smile, hoping that the Luxen wouldn't be able to sense his uneasiness. Although he'd found a way to cover up his previous Markings, he still didn't want another one. If the Luxen got too close, he was unsure of what he'd do, but it wouldn't be very pretty. For him, anyway.
ooc: nope, i don't mind! also, i went and changed it, hopefully it's easier to read now c:

Can't wake up in sweat 'Cause it ain't over yet Still dancing with your demons (Victim of your own creation) Luana remained frozen there for a moment, trying to keep her body in just the right pose, make it look like she had been frozen in the middle of swinging. Though those brilliant blue eyes stayed on him, a smile of almost child-like innocence was plastered on her face. For once, she wasn't here in a dream to gain trust, for once she wasn't here to try and play nice, no, for once she was here to play dirty! To have some real fun, Luxen style! Even if pretending for a few minutes that she wasn't so bad was necessary.
When he spoke to her finally, she relaxed her body, giggling as she did so. Her fingers curled around the cold metal of the frozen swing. She wanted to actually will it to move again but didn't. No manipulating the dream, not yet. She kicked her legs freely, smiling over at the boy though her smile had went from childish to twisted in no time. "You shoulda seen the look on your face! You had no idea whether i.had always been here or just appeared at first, did ya?" she asked coyly. Was she making him uneasy? Good! Just how she liked it. She glanced around her surroundings a moment, a low whistle escaping her before she fixed her eyes back on him. "You know, usually my style is to go for dreamy wonderlands before making everything all dark and morbid but this? Or this is a masterpiece. But i bet we can make it worse, can't we?" she asked. "All of this darkness inside your own dreams? You must hate yourself to imagine such a dreary hell. Or is this paradise for you? Seems to be a messed up paradise."

Addison watched the Luxen for a few moments. He had almost convinced himself that he really had just missed her, that maybe the dreadful feeling really was a product of the nightmare; until she started to talk. He was silent as she spoke, doing his best to make it seem like her words had no effect on him. He had learned that just simply ignoring Luxenbris was the best way to get them to leave you alone, however this one was difficult to ignore. Besides the fact that she was speaking directly to him, she seemed to have a stronger presence than any other Luxen he'd met. This also may have just been because of the nightmare, though. He waited until she was finished, then replied in a steadier tone than earlier,"This is hardly a masterpiece. More like a shittier version of the sweet dream I was having earlier." He paused, thinking about what she said. He honestly had no idea what was even going on. He had thought that maybe this was indeed the workings of a Luxen, however the more he though about it the more it didn't seem so. At least, this Luxen didn't seem to have anything to do with it. Or she was lying; he couldn't tell with these devious characters. He chose his words carefully before asking,"What, exactly, do you want? I hope you don't think I want you to touch me." He shuddered at his last sentence, unable to maintain his calm exposure at the thought of being Marked yet again. For him it was humiliating, even though one wouldn't be able to tell right off the bat if he was marked or not. Being ostracized wasn't much of a concern of his. More like, he hated the thought of being ... property.
ooc: no problem! and you don't have to if you don't want to. i don't mind using this table haha
