Sven couldn't remember the last time he slept alone in his dorm room. Myrran being gone still left a dull ache in his chest when he thought about it for too long, but he was starting to think that being in bed without either Ellie or Emily was even worse. It irritated him if only because it was yet another weakness, something to be taken advantage of.

Still, he managed to get comfortable at last. His arms were folded over his chest and a scowl was on his face, but he still couldn't help feeling at ease with his black comforter under and around him. It didn't take long for him to drift off, and it was a sure bet he wouldn't move from that spot until morning.

Sebastian stood outside the door to Sven's dorm, hands clenched into fists. It was time to show Sven just how he did things. He could sense that Sven was sleeping and a twisted smile crept its way onto the Frenchman's face. Now Sven was just as vulnerable as Sebastian had been, and he was going to be just as unforgiving. "Ah, monsieur Kivela...let us see what you've got going on in zere. I'm sure it will be interesting no?"

He put his back against the wall and slumped down to the floor, head falling down towards his lap. Sebastian wasn't worried about being spotted at this time of night, and people were accustomed to seeing him sleeping in odd places around SIN due to situations like these and from passing out from sheer exhaustion. He closed his eyes and projected himself onto Sven's subconscious, curious to see how the boy dreamed.

[Warning: The dream sequences in this thread, while not graphic, may still disturb some readers.]

Sven's dreams weren't very pretty. That wasn't to say they were always violent or particularly dismal. The colors in them were never bright although not quite all grey, and an ever present feeling that he was being watched.

This particular dream was no different in those aspects. It did, however, leave an immediate impression. After all, it wasn't as if Sebastian would ever get to see Sven with his hands cuffed behind his back and walking around the city in the waking world.

Sven didn't seem to be in any real pain. In fact, he looked quite comfortable despite the way the metal dug into his skin, and his sense of movement wasn't inhibited in any way. The latter was no doubt the benefit of being in a dream. As for the former, it wasn't all that surprising given the games that he and Emily usually played.

As for where he was going, it was hard to say. Sven seemed to do little more than wander, but the further he went into the city, the more broken it seemed to be. Windows went from merely cracked to completely shattered, and the pavement was broken with the concrete having buckled beneath a car or even a building. To put an apt description to it, the city looked as if a bomb had gone off.

Sebastian felt eyes on him...wary of his presence in this dream. Anything out of place and Sven's find would kick into defense mode and Sebastian would be ousted. It probably helped that he was incredibly angry. He was going to to tear Sven apart from the inside out and he was going to enjoy it oh so much.

As he crept through the barren dream-scape looking for Sven, a piece of a building fell frighteningly close to Sebastian, covering him in dust and rubble. He let out a frustrated sigh and was soon clean again. The layout of Sven's dream really wasn't surprising to Sebastian, the kid was really messed up and it only got worse as he wandered deeper into Sven's subconscious.

Sebastian peeked from a building and saw Sven wandering in handcuffs and blinked a few times. He was even in bondage in his dreams...almost a pitiable sight...almost. Staying out of sight, Sebastian traversed the ruins to get out in front of Sven. Using some of his power, Sebastian created what appeared to be a couple embracing in the distance.

Sven didn't notice anything out of place just yet, but nothing unusual had really happened. As far as the punk knew, he was searching for something, but it had nothing to do with Sebastian. He was over that.

He was about to call out when he spotted the couple on the horizon.

The young man paused while the handcuffs twisted and dug deeper into his skin. It was as if his gut was telling him to just ignore the couple, but his mind was already made up. He was going to see who it was over the hill. Unfortunately, the hill was made up of the bits of broken concrete and contorted metal of the city, and with his hands bound behind him, Sven was struggling to keep upright.

However, even in his dreams, he was full of determination and ambition. No matter how long it took, he would fight his way up the wreckage one way or another. What was a little sweat?

Sebastian sat crouched behind a broken storefront window, watching as Sven made his way up the hill, struggling to reach this couple. It was all he could muster to keep from laughing out loud at what was about to happen, the most twisted and malevolent of grins on his face. All that work to get up that hill, only to be crushed on top of it. This was going to be marvelous...was it this feeling that the Professor spoke of? This feeling that you are in control of someone's demise? To be at the forefront of your enemies destruction? It was exhilarating.

Once Sven got closer to the couple, he could see that the girl in the couple was Ellie and that she was making out with a strange man whose face Sebastian left blank so that Sven's own mind could put it there. By the looks of it, she was really enjoying it too.

Once Sven could make out Ellie's face, the rubble under him threatened to give way. He held on through force of will, but he still struggled to get up the last stretch.

"Ellie."

The name fell like a stone in a pond. It sank quickly, but in saying it, a series of events were bound to happen. First in quick succession and then fewer and far between. Regardless of how the dream went, it would soon become a nightmare.

Sven's mind could have picked any number of possible suitors. He could have went with Vance or Dio, and it wasn't so long ago that he might have put Myrran there in his place. However, this was a dream, and dreams were hardly logical at the best of times. For someone as emotionally hardwired as Sven, though, they took on a much more irrational direction.

Ellie was making out with Arco.

Sigma? That was who Sven's mind to put on the stranger's face? Sebastian watched on in exquisite delight, noticing the change in stability of the dream...he would have to use some of his energy to keep it stable. The look on his face was priceless...and it was only going to get better from her.

Ellie didn't even look at him, and neither of them acknowledged his presence. It was almost as if he wasn't even there, that they were too occupied with lip locking to notice him in his own dream. That had to be devastating.

The broken road and buildings under Sven buckled, a sign of how his own mind crumbled at the mere thought. He tried to cry out Ellie's name again, but it was drowned out by the sound of groaning metal beams and concrete being smashed into dust. The pair vanished from his sight, still perched on their pedestal above the ruins.

Sven fell in mid-air, his hands still bound behind him. He legs were slightly above his head, and when he struggled to keep himself from falling on his back, he was thrown head over heels in the rushing wind. When he did land, he was only dazed. After all, this was still a dream.

However, it felt as if the dream was starting to bleed into another, possibly darker, dream.

Sebastian watched as Sven tumbled about, looking so frail. This is definitely what the Professor spoke of...this was his potential. He looked to the darkening sky in the dream and moved from the window to follow Sven.

More debris fell around the Frenchman and a new figure appeared in front of Sven in what seemed to be a prone stance, as if the figure were sleeping.

Did Sebastian always have these devious tendencies?
