milliways_bar - OOM dream the eighth, ninth... you get the idea
[OOC: Though it plays as one dream, it covers a series of days - about a week or so - and is oddly linear, but still, mostly a dream...]
Van Helsing is asleep in yet another borrowed room... this one at the Vatican where he gets some much-needed sleep as he awaits his new assignment.
As he sleeps...
...he begins to dream...

He'd seen this place before; he and Lestat had snuck in in the dead of night, once, and he still thought it was the most beautiful place he'd ever seen in his life.
It was quiet, except for the sound of some distant chanting, and he could smell incense burning and hear the flames flicker in the candelabra.
He added nothing to the noise, stealing quietly to the back of the chapel.
no subject
But still, he sleeps.
no subject
The room he finds is unlocked, and so he steps inside, still not knowing why.

He touches the shoulder that's turned to him, ready for an attack if needs be.

"What are you doing here?" he hears himself asking.
no subject
"I believe," he growls, "that I should be asking that question."
no subject
"I don't know why I'm here."
no subject
no subject
"Yes, you do. I'm sorry to have startled you, Master Van Helsing."
no subject
no subject
"I have as much knowledge on this situation as you do, my good Sir monster hunter."
no subject
no subject
"You don't know why I'm here, then?"
no subject
"How would I know that?"
no subject
"There has to be a reason for me being here, hasn't there?"
He kneels.
"And not just, 'to keep you from sleeping'."
no subject
"I'm tired. You figure it out."
He rolls away again.
no subject
"If I'm not allowed to sleep, then you aren't, either. Now get back here and help me figure this out, won't you?"
no subject
He mumbles, "Not that I was sleeping all that well anyway."
no subject
"Anything at all. You're a master of the supernatural. Ignoring my presence, do you feel anything unusual in this place?"
no subject
"Only thing I 'sense' is Carl moving around in the lab."
Then he looks into David's eyes - not on purpose, that just happens to be where his gaze lands after he blinks - and his breath catches for the briefest of moments, nearly imperceptible.
no subject
"Nothing else?"
no subject
no subject
"I don't know."
But perhaps there shouldn't be... that.
