katikat"The Star Rover" by veritas-nescio | Arthur/Eames | When the next generation of Somnacin compound gets released, people start experiencing odd side effects; they dream about their past lives. The next time Arthur & Eames share a dream, they come across a startling revelation - they've been lovers in every single incarnation of their past selves, finding each other no matter what their form, no matter what obstacles had stood in their way. | ~10.000 words
Wonderful story. But also veritas-nescio's last. After this, the author went off the net. It's too bad because her/his stories pushed all my buttons...
Arthur runs wild and free in his dreams.
He's never been one to indulge in escapism. He was born – in this life, at least – with feet firmly planted on the ground, trained to value stability, pragmatism, reliability.
Dreams, natural or PASIV-induced, are not built to be reliable. Becoming enraptured with dream-share was Arthur's first step off the straight and narrow.
Delving back through time is his second.
Wonderful story. But also veritas-nescio's last. After this, the author went off the net. It's too bad because her/his stories pushed all my buttons...
