Scene Sunday #54

A purple sky stretched out above her, triangle stars scattered in thick bands between the clouds. She frowned slightly in concentration as she swept a hand upwards, pulling the bands gently until they became a swirl. Much more pleasing.

Satisfied now with the sky, her attention moved downwards, focusing next on the horizon. Distant hills shifted and grew, forming new peaks. A little snow on the highest ones gave it a nice touch.

She moved onwards to the terrain closer to her, shifting the shapes subtly here and there until they were to her liking, and pausing only when she felt a strange sensation. A familiar sensation.

"...Lulo... Lulo..!"

Lulo stirred, heavy eyesockets opening slowly. Her vision was still blurry, but she could make out Cambria looking down at her.

"C'mon sleepy, we're almost ready to go."

Lulo blinked, lifting her skull slightly. Right, they were all heading out tonight, and everyone was probably waiting on her. "...mm... kay..."

Seemingly satisfied with this, Cambria hurried off to finish her own preparation. Lulo sighed, sitting up and rubbing her skull, immediately wishing she could go back to her dream. Her movements felt so sluggish today by comparison, like she was stuck moving through water, and her head felt fuzzy and slow.

Maybe it would clear up if she got moving.

Probably not, she decided, but she grabbed her backpack with her notebook and mp3 player and headed for the door anyways. Maybe she could catch a nap later, and at least finish her terraforming project.
