Movie Dream Trailer
Sender: (Tianyou) Zhao
To: Everyone
Subject: Passive dream recording
[It's been said with the advent of movies and television that dreams have altered forever in people. Zhao appears to be no exception as there's some pretty groovy music playing. It's like a trailer for an epic movie and you can't help but get hyped for what this could possibly be about.
The dream trailer seems to be divided in separate sections moving at the same time. There's action in the foreground, a stylized repeating graphic of someone doing flips down stairs that's all in black and then some black and white grainy footage up in a corner of maybe other characters in this movie? The graphic of the figure flipping down the stairs doesn't succeed all the time. Sometimes it stumbles, but always tries again.
Over this scene is a voice over befitting what you're now realizing is some martial arts movie.]
Motivation! Have the desire to succeed. Confidence! Believe in yourself!
[The foreground footage is of Zhao being surrounded by a ring of foes and he's busting out some incredible kung fu to keep everyone away. Not a soul can touch this man!
Occasionally the repeating graphic is of a smaller figure who fails the flip challenge more often but that makes sense if this is a dream about a hero's journey to get stronger over time. The black and white grainy footage then must be past obstacles the hero overcame to be the amazing man he became. Hot damn, this dream is great! There seems to be a lot of men in various forms and battle poses, so there promises to be a lot of fighting in this movie.]
Discipline! Follow directions.
[A sinister figure wearing a white suit and holding a giant curved spear is snarling and points at Zhao.]
I will crush your spirit and make you fall!
[It seems a little tense now, as Zhao keeps fighting off endless waves of bad guys. He's even injured now, wiping blood off his lips. But he's grinning, ready for the epic battle yet to come. Even the voice over guy agrees.]
Perseverance! Keep working for what you believe in despite hardship.
[Zhao seems amped up and holds up his saber, waving it in deceptively lazy patterns. Which for people who HAVE watched him fight, is just the preamble for when he is ready to throw down.]
You can't steal my dreams, Mabuchi. I learned to fall with grace thanks to my father, so what do you think you can do against me?
[Holy shit this is gonna be so damn good, you're so excited!
Except there's just something about that last line...
Then the entire dream trailer freezes as though paused and it goes very weird and wobbly. Thanks to the voices of the characters, the next voiceover is from the man called Mabuchi:]
No one's going to come and save you, Zhao.
[And the dream trailer abruptly ends like a TV being turned off.]

[Toge only really knows about gangs and stuff from movies and media, so he’s wondering how it was like for Zhao. How much of the movie magic was based in reality and all.]
Sounds like that Kasuga guy really came in clutch, huh?
[He’s keeping it a little light, but based on what he saw, it looks like those shadows had helped Zhao out.]
no subject
And yeah, Kasuga-kun did come in out of nowhere. Didn't even know he would do that, but it was all because I did him one solid. Funny how life works sometimes.
no subject
Well, that's how some people are. You show them kindness or do them a favour, they repay it back in kind. More people should be like that, if you ask me.
no subject
What a fucking waste.
Yeah, Kasuga-kun is pretty goddamn great for returning favors. Probably why he gathered such a group of weirdos.
no subject
Sounds like you admire this Kasuga guy. He seems like a cool dude, at least.
