Salutations, ladies and gentlemen! Thank you for tuning in to 666 AM with me, your host and local Radio Demon, Alastor!

Apologies once again for missing out on our usual time together last week! I took a rather unexpected and deep nap! Quite a fascinating one, too! In my dreams I returned to Hell! How was it you might ask? Well, it's Hell, of course! Just the usual eternal damnation and endless suffering! But the truly fascinating part was I woke up in my bed there as if no time at all had passed while I was here...not that I remembered our little dream world, of course! A bit disorienting when I woke up here after a week while a far more significant amount of time had passed there!

Speaking of naps, I ended up not being the only one! Who could've seen that coming?! I hope you all enjoyed your alternate lives while they lasted! Anyone hoping to have ammunition for future blackmail or at least teasing, well, I hope you took notes! Ha ha ha ha!

And as always tends to happen once these particularly strange events occur, we have some new dreamers to add to our little town! Those of you that can hear my voice at this moment, congratulations! You've been randomly selected to spend Creator-knows-how-long in this lovely shared dream we call "Reverein"! Not everything is a dire emergency, I assure you! Why, sometimes the worst you need to worry about are odd weather patterns like raining starfish!

I myself have had the pleasure of being here for two and a half years if you can believe it! Came in with the first batch back when this was all just overgrown woods and the Dreambucks. Ah, simpler times! Now look at us living in the fast lane with other towns to visit and our very own radio station!

Speaking of which, enjoy the music!

oh i fell asleep too!! or woke up? i dont know i disappeared appaprently but i came back

how long was it for you?? it was about a month and a half or maybe a bit longer for me

[lonelysmiles]

Six months! However I didn't actually disappear here. Very strange!

[amnesiadragon]

thats weird.. i know joshua was looking for me

but im sorry you were suffering

[lonelysmiles]

Oh, it wasn't anything I wasn't expecting! It's Hell, after all! I more than earned it!

[amnesiadragon]

you still shouldnt have to suffer

even if the people i dont like were horrible i dont want them to suffer forever

[lonelysmiles]

[Alastor gives a bemused chuckle even if you can't hear it. Time to disabuse someone of the silly notion that he shouldn't have had to suffer.]

I was what is referred to nowadays as a serial killer when I was alive. The way I disposed of the bodies was particularly abhorrent to any civilized person.

Believe me, I most certainly did deserve my fate.

[amnesiadragon]

rasso hurt children

[And it still makes him mad to think about it. That said...]

i think killing him hurt enough

i wouldnt want him to suffer forever

I honestly can’t believe that I have been in this place for two and a half years as well. You are definitely right with Reverein’s first iteration: most of this town was indeed overgrown trees, deserted buildings and just Dreambucks. Quite fascinating to see how much Reverein has grown within this time frame.

[lonelysmiles]

Time truly does fly! It seems like it wasn't all that long ago when you stop and think about it.

[grandduchess_anya]

On absolutely. Haven’t forgotten about that for this long. I couldn’t forget about how rough it was to live in a town that doesn’t have a lot ongoing and have very little amenities.

[lonelysmiles]

Oh it wasn't that bad! The house I lived in my whole life went without most of the modern conveniences! It was rather nostalgic!

[grandduchess_anya]

Hm. That is a fair point. I did had to deal with sharing some things with plenty of orphaned children in the orphanage I stayed in.

Whoever decided my 'alternate life' certainly had a sense of humor.

My role was to lay in repose until I was found by a hero. Cursed in sleep, only to be cursed to sleep.
