*Mystina hugged Tac* There has to be some way for you to get rest, you could always visit faerie and let us make you sleep for a while.. and being time runs differently there... Well.. you never know, it could change things.
I guess everything seems much more slow when you've lived for a very long time...
Is there anyone you could go to, to request rest? *She tilted her head, trying to think of something, she hated seeing anyone unhappy or sad, especially Tacitus.*

Tac shook his head, "Its not like that...I've slept for three days on end and woke up exhausted Its not how long I've lived...everything literally runs slower for me...its like I'm a cheap imitation of an expensive watch...I keep running slow. I'm broken, Mysti."

*Mystina hugged him tightly and rubbed his back* Tac, you're not broken. Time seems to run slow for you because I think you have so much of it...
You'll get to rest at some point, we all get to rest in the end. Like I said, there should be someone who'd agree to let you rest... Real rest... not like sleep... There should be a God you can call a favor in on...
Abundance makes time seem slower. When you have too much of something you see things differently.
There should be a way that you could speed things up... I mean... look at who you are! *She grinned a little* Cheer up Tac... Things will be fine... You'll get what you want, I know it's hard waiting... *She smiled a little sadly* But things will be fine.

He shook his head and pulled away from her to rest his head in his hands, supported by his elbows on his knees, "You don't get it, Mysti. There is no one and nothing that can help me. There are no gods that owe me anything, and none that will heed my call. No rest in any form will help...I can't rest my soul unless I die, and if I die I'll just come back. I'm a shadow of who I once was. Hell, I can't even look upon some of the happiness of my past life with a smile anymore...and no matter how long I wait, there isn't going to be anything there for me. She prefers the b*****d."

*Mystina shook her head and ran her hands through her hair* Tac, you were once FATE... If things are meant to be, they will be. You know this... *She smiled* When you're meant to rest, you will... Things will happen as they are supposed to, you know they will... As hard as it is waiting for them to happen, they're out of your hands. You're here, right now, going through this for a reason. There's a reason you're still living, you have to hold onto that.
There's a reason you haven't started resting yet. It'll come when it's meant to.

Tac let out a sigh, "If only I could write my own fate as I did so long ago, but even then it was only a minimal control. Little more than the control one already has to fill the gaps between divine providence." He looked up to her, "Heh...its funny, so many seek a way to attain immortality, and here I am trying to cast off the sembleance I have of it."

*Mystina leaned over and gave Tac a kiss on the lips, soft, not like a lover, but the kind that says "Hush and listen!", then pulled away, holding his head in her hands*
Tac, No matter how long we're lost in the dreamworld, or trapped in a cage surrounded by nightmares, we always awaken... The reverse has to be true... Given time, your soul will simply be unable to continue, and you will find the sleep you desire...
*She kissed his forehead, in the middle where his third eye would be*

Tac's face scrunched up and he blinked at her after she kissed him, and then long after she had spoken, "...Rape!"
Yes, he yelled rape in her face, and yes, he was accusing her of rape. Well, not really. He blinked a few more times before he couldn't keep a straight face anymore, "Ok, so maybe not rape." He let out a brief sigh, "I guess you're right though..."

*Mystina blinked and fell over laughing* You're crazy, Tac. And yes, you know I am. *She snickered and hugged him again* Things will work out for you, Tac. Either way. I know they will.
*She faded out right as she finished that sentance*

In time, Tac faded as well, but it wasn't anywhere nearly as funny or odd. He wished he could have faded out rolling on the floor laughing, but he also knew the Brink wouldn't do it, just to spite him.
It did, even if it didn't mean to/couldn't.

::Sato faded into the room in mid conversation. She stopped and looked about, then headed to the bar and began to rummage through the bottles::

**Enter Melliandra**
*Melliandra fades in, seated, as she sharpens the blade of her sword. Her appearance, which had been altered, reverts back as it usually does . . . except, strangely enough, for her hair, which stays brown.*
*Upon realizing where she is, she quickly pulls a lock of it in front of her eyes, then lets out a triumphant bark of laughter* Ha! Now we're getting somewhere ...

Hey. Wanna drink?

*Melli smiles, sheathing her sword as she rises* Why certainly, darling.
