WHIRLING F2 DREAM 5 - 1198

G 0 START 1 input 0->1 24 Limbic System: Like a deftly cast fishing net, sleep pulls you out of the world and into its dark shore. The rough mesh chafes, then, tightening around you, it digs into your brain. 1->24 2 Ancient Reptilian Brain: We're trying to help you. All these processes -- these tortures, voices and tremors -- are all just *distractions*. Flares and countermeasures. To keep you from the *last dream*. The worst of them all. 4 You: The... last dream? 2->4 3 You: Her face forms in summertime... 26 Ancient Reptilian Brain: ...in hell and ancient sadness, brother. Ten thousand years later -- in front of the video rental. There is a warm breath on your face again. Everything is *okay* again. 3->26 6 Limbic System: The last dream will be total annihilation. Cinders peeling off the fuselage. We won't be there to help you anymore, Harry. We will be dormant. You will be naked and alone. 4->6 5 Volition: They're right. This is their function. To keep you from *it*. 28 You: Why are you doing this? I just want to sleep. I can almost see the dark. 5->28 22 Untitled hub (02) 6->22 7 Limbic System: Your eyelids flutter open for a moment. When you close them again, you sense the light of the room around you -- you're back. In two seconds the alarm will ring. 10 Variable["church.stained_greeting_done"] 7->10 8 Untitled hub 18 You: Shut up, I just want to sleep. 8->18 20 You: I don't care. That doesn't scare me. 8->20 39 You: Okay, so I'm a murderer and that's *bad*. 8->39 9 You: Doesn't sound like it will be okay. 9->7 11 Variable["church.stained_greeting_done"] 10->11 12 !(Variable["church.stained_greeting_done"]) 10->12 15 Inland Empire: The last thought in your head before waking is: maybe you shouldn't have seen that stained glass window? In the church.... 11->15 42 Inland Empire: The last thought in your head before waking is: you need to go to the church... 12->42 13 You: [Open your eyes.] 14 Ancient Reptilian Brain: Of hell and ancient sadness, brother. Ten thousand years later -- in front of the video rental. There is a warm breath on your face again. Everything is *okay* again. 33 Limbic System: Everything is *so* okay. 14->33 15->13 16 Limbic System: Hear that? He doesn't even flinch. Ice-man doesn't care about killing people. That's *nothing* to him. Black water under the bridge. The thing he's *really* scared of... 30 Limbic System: ...is much, *much* worse than that. 16->30 17 You: Great. This is gonna be really chill. 21 Ancient Reptilian Brain: How've things been going for you out there? Helped anyone lately? Saved anyone lately? *Murdered* anyone lately? 17->21 40 Limbic System: Hear that? Ice-man wants to sleep, he doesn't care about killing people. That's *nothing* to him. Black water under the bridge. The thing he's *really* scared of... 18->40 19 You: And the air will smell of apricots... 19->14 38 Limbic System: Hear that? You were *naive* to think he's afraid of his bloodied hands, soul brother. Oh no, I see inside his amygdala and his hippocampus. The thing he's *really* scared of... 20->38 37 Rhetoric: This bastard isn't even listening to you! 21->37 22->3 22->19 29 You: I don't *want to* anymore. I don't want to think either one of those things. 22->29 23 Ancient Reptilian Brain: Don't tell him, sister. It's too bad. 23->5 27 Untitled hub 24->27 25 Ancient Reptilian Brain: Because, you know, you *are* a murderer. A disco music listening psycho-killer who offs poor people -- and then *forgets* about it. 25->8 26->33 27->17 31 You: Yeah-yeah, just let me sleep... 27->31 36 You: Dark shore, my ass. I know what this is. 27->36 28->2 32 Ancient Reptilian Brain: Oh, but you *will*. You're already *going* there. Slipping. How long can we keep you from the precipice? *One* more dream? Two max, baby. Then it's... 29->32 30->28 35 You: What is it? 30->35 31->21 32->3 32->19 33->9 41 You: I can't wait. I can't wait... 33->41 35->23 36->21 37->25 38->30 39->16 40->30 41->7 42->13
