And the wind smells slow and sour when it blows

What: Nightmares
When: Friday
Where: HIS MIND
Rating: Uh PG/PG13.


[You'd be forgiven for thinking you've entered a pleasant dream, rather than a horrific nightmare here. You've arrived in Truffula Valley, a peaceful, wonderful place that almost puts Paradisa's created beauty to shame. Forest creatures are scurrying about, singing and playing and generally going about their business.

The sky is bright blue, the sun is shining and the waters of the nearby river and pond are crystal clear. And most importantly there are miles upon miles upon miles of Truffula trees. For anyone the Once-ler described these trees to, he wasn't kidding. The touch of their tufts really is softer than silk and that comforting, wonderful smell? Fresh butterfly milk baby.

Nothing good lasts forever, and there's a general unease about the place. A disjointed sort of feel, like someone's putting on a play and you've already been told everyone dies at the end]

They won't be gone, will you listen? You're worse than the Lorax. It'll be fine. I've got it all under control.

[He's outright refusing to listen to reason; Mufasa can tell he's a lost cause. He narrows his eyes; the man's annoying, but Mufasa's not one to resort to violence unless necessary.

This man-- he has absolute power over this land, that was for sure. By himself, he couldn't hope to do anything, so there was only one option, and that was to find the animals a permanent home where they could rest in peace.

But that doesn't mean he won't leave without some biting words.]

You are a fool, and your greed will be your downfall.

[Even if you're still blabbing, Once, this lion king's done with you, and he's already off to look for the animals.]

Yeah, yeah. Preach it to someone who cares, furball.
