[canihelpyou]

I don't sleep.

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

I do and you did volunteer to be a pillow.

[canihelpyou]

But then, shouldn't I be the one telling the story to you?

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

...I'm surprised you know the normal logistics of bedtime stories.

[canihelpyou]

I-I know things! I... I-I learned about them from Dahlia.

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

Ah, guess Dahlia would know.

Just didn't seem to be a thing that'd come up much with a park full of non-sleepers.

[canihelpyou]

S-Sometimes we talk about things... I-I heard about, um, dreams? B-But I don't really know much about them.

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

...they're not as amazing as they can be made out to be. Mostly it's just our brains processing how our day went.

[canihelpyou]

...

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

You know memories, right? How you can picture them in your mind?

[canihelpyou]

Yes, I know that.

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

Dreams are like that, but usually a lot more nonsense.

[canihelpyou]

Nonsense like the weird things in the park?

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

Nonsense like you think if you fail to turn in the fish to your English teacher, you'll end up killing the Queen of Spain.

[canihelpyou]

Ferris wheel! Wh-What's Spain?

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

It's a country. A really big mass of land.

[canihelpyou]

Ohhh.

...I-If humans see things like that all the time when they sleep, then, wh-why do you find all this stuff so weird? A-Aren't you used to it?

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

Because they're just dreams and visualizations. They're not real, we're used to them always being fake.

[canihelpyou]

Hmmm... [I'm not sure I get it :x]

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

...let's say you imagined Karl dancing in a pretty princess dress everyday.

Wouldn't it still seem weird if he ACTUALLY did it?

[canihelpyou]

I don't know what a princess dress looks like.

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

It's an especially frilly and pink dress.

[canihelpyou]

[...I thought it...]

[whocanhelpinthebigbadwolf]

It'd be weirder if he really did it, wouldn't it?

[canihelpyou]

Y-Yes. Yes that would be weird.
