[Wally's voice is rough and obviously sleep-sluggish, and the picture is just someone's fucked up ginger hair on a pillow.]

Dude.

I had the craziest dream last night.

So I'm walking down the boardwalk down in Florida, right? The one were all the tourists show up because they wanna see heroes in uniform? Except all the tourists are balloons and these superheros are walking around holding onto bunches of 'em so they don't float away. They're still taking pictures and eating cotton candy and corndogs and stuff, they're just doing it up in the air.

And then freakin' Tony Stark shows up and he goes "Just be free, let it go" and he starts cutting strings so the tourists start floating up into the sky. And Superman is flying around gathering up the tourists, but instead of bringing them back down he takes them into the atmosphere and they go off into space. Nobody really seems upset about any of this so I'm like whatever.

So I'm back down on the ground- like I'm just showing up, but I could see what was happening before but now I'm there there, and like everybody -like everybody from home, and Jaime and Annie and Lydia, and Karebear and CK and- and that one dude I talked to like once? What's your name? Thomas? Or Stiles. -hey, are you guys twins?

-anyway everybody was there, but you're all on the dock because you're all making up the planks that people are walking on. And people are walking on your faces and I'm shoving them off the docks, because they're walking on my buddies, right? And I try to pull you guys up off the docks but you keep going, "No, no, we're happy here," and keep lying back down when I pull you up.

I get on someone's bike and then I'm in Bulgaria... -And I'm riding through the museum in Sofia and it's on fire, but Alfred is a security guard and he's like "Get off the bike" and I told him I don't...I don't understand Bulgarian even though I did, but he was speaking English? But it was...Bulgarian...in my dream...

[Wally drifts off for a second before waking back up to continue.]

And then the bike turns into a dragon, and I fly up into outer space and all the tourists are there and Supes is there and Tony Stark is there and Tony Stark looks at me and whispers, "Freedom" before he drifts into the sun, and the sun explodes but it's not bad, it's nice and warm like a campfire. And Superman says, "I brought marshmallows, neato," like he actually says neato and then we all have s'mores, the end.

[Another, more lengthy pause before Wally grabs his comm and yawns.] G'morning. Oh, it's video.

[And it cuts.]

[runningstart]

Yeah don't do that.

[givetheslip]

Had you been drinking the evening before?

[immuno]

That was maybe better suited for your dream diary than for the imPort network.

[runningstart]

Sharing is caring, Lydia.

[isaytheeneigh]

[Midway through listening because wow why does he keep talking:]

Why did you think we'd care?

video.

[runningstart]

Totally didn't do this because I thought you cared, dude. Shocking, I know.

video

[teaspectre]

I'm surprised you remembered that much. I never remember my dreams.

[ That's because you put off sleeping until you're unconscious, Annie. ]

video

[runningstart]

Yeah it doesn't happen a lot, so I kinda wanted to document it. Just meant to do voice though.

[lyingheart]

I think the good morning would have been more than enough.

Nice hair.

[This is private purely because Hal was the genius who introduced himself on the network as Green Lantern and now he's limited to what he can do when he sees people he knows out of costume.]

Are you on drugs?

[Did no one learn anything from Roy? And yes, this is the greater concern than having a smaller Flash.]

[It takes Wally a minute, squinting at the video before he checks out the name and finally, finally, it clicks. He shoves himself up onto an elbow and grabs his comm.]

Whoa dude, Uncle Hal? Is that you?! When- when the heck did you get here?

[boobwindow]

[ WHAT. ]

2/2 video

[boobwindow]

[ ID reads Karen Starr. ]

Have you been drinking? And I told you not to call me that.

[bioshift]

Remind me not to hang around when you're sleeping. I feel like that sort of interference would give me weird dreams.

[runningstart]

Crazy dreams are good every once in a while. [He yawns.] Builds character. Or something.

[yatagarasu]

...

That is a crazy dream. And you were able to remember everything?

[runningstart]

There's probably some stuff I forgot, but it's not like I'm writing a book so I'm okay with it. And it's not like this totally nutso dream I had like a month ago; that one was crazy, it was like four dreams in one.

[ex_question191]

Wow, buddy, that is some spectacular overshare, thank you.

But yeah. We're definitely twins.

[runningstart]

Well clutch my pearls and call me Sister Clara. That's not even the worst overshare I can do.

[khajidont]

What I'm seeing here is that dream-Tony Stark has this real thing about freedom. What a true blue American.

audio

[runningstart]

I know, right? So patriotic. He wants everyone to be free right into the sun.

video

[vaccination]

... what the hell, dude.

video

[runningstart]

I know, it's pretty weird. [Wow. He...hasn't talked to Ellie in a long time.]

Unrelated but still important: Christmas-theme Oreos are out now that Thanksgiving's come and gone.

[standsproud]

Probably doesn't mean anything. [And at least you don't have a dream assassin working there.]

[runningstart]

How could you say that? Every thought my brain produces means something.

[bratziska]

Just what in the world did you eat last night?

video;

[runningstart]

Fifteen turkey sandwiches.
