(( Kristi is prescribed skeletons ))
Dreams of treachery, carnal diversions, so many murders, so many negative thoughts about so many people, and one trillion violin notes. At least one thing was perfect... Then suddenly, it started to die down - and Trevor would have died with it, but he saw an opportunity to rise through the tumult, to experience a moment of clarity... and daysickness. Santi- "Are your eyes... open? Theodore- "Mm, nyum, I'm going to sleep, thank you. Rest..."
Trevor understood every word perfectly and easily. But he also felt the weight of the day, and of something else just wiping out his mental and physical resources. He was sooo weary, but he was, at least for the moment, himself. Did he try to stay awake?

Among the resurfacing elements of character was Trevor's willingness to deride discomfort. It was time to rise.

Theo disappeared just the same, but Santi remained, waiting to hear what Trevor had to say.

Trevor - "Those dreams were something. I guess..." Trevor paused for a moment. He was so used to fumbling through possible vocabulary and grammar when speaking Glennish that it was startling to come across his words so easily. "That was 'trying something new'?"

Santi was clearly pleased, which bothered Trevor in an ambiguous way.
Santi- "Yesss, no more language barrier. Interesting, do you think daysickness has quelled her personality some?"

Trevor - "Sorry if this is naive, but what do you mean?"

Santi- "Not at all. This is a new experience, one we could scarcely prepare you for with the limitations we were under. Let me see...
You have taken on the ghost of a more powerful vampire, and in doing so gained some of her power. Unfortunately, until you have mastered your new self, you must also contend with what remains of her mind, her feelings.
Now, when I took Marchese, I slept through the first days and did not notice a difference, but you seem surprisingly alert right now. Do you suppose the coming of dawn has quieted your headmate?"

Trevor thinks on it for a moment.
Trevor - "I can't be sure, but that does seem likely. So, are these the residual feelings and memories of that Circle member I'm experiencing, or is she still technically living within my mind? Or do we not know for certain?"

Santi- "I think a ghost is the best analogy. Her will is no more. You may not be sure at times, but you really are the only true consciousness within."

Trevor looks decidedly pleased.
Trevor - "I'm glad to hear that. I believe you'll sympathize when I say the world around us is bettered with less of this Dragomir."
"Albeit she's a bit much, even as a ghost."

Santi- "I'm stuck with memories of the pleasure of abusing myself for decades. But it's worth it. I cannot wait!"

Trevor - "Hearing that, I honestly have nothing to complain about."
Trevor - He bites his bottom lip and lets it go. "I'm not very experienced with emotional baggage, but... That is, if you ever need anything..."
Improved Glennish didn't make social navigation any easier, unfortunately.

The shadow of feeling Santi shot him in the face doesn't help Trevor with this either. Such is life.
Santi- "It is fine. We should rest. Unless there's anything you'd like to discuss, now that you are more able?"

Trevor didn't hold any strong resentment towards the bloke that struck him at the bar, as he was clearly asking for it. A shot to the face hardly differed, by Trevor's uncommon logic.
Trevor - "If there's nothing more you think needs to be said, I agree with that sentiment."
Even so, Trevor would like a quick check in with the spirits before said rest, if that was possible in his wobbly state.

Santi- "Then sogni d'oro, friend. I'm off."
Santi retired for the day. It took Trevor an actual summoning circle to get in touch with Miss Bunny, but he was able to get her help in convincing the other spirits to help him through his convalescence...
