>Check the time.
>Does Rinoa seem to be asleep?
>You stretch you arms and sit up, the Goddess Orb rolling into your lap. It seems you were sleeping with it in your arms.
>The sun is rising. Maybe... 7am?
>She does seem to be doing so. But you don't know if she's just pretending to do it, because you aren't sure if ghosts CAN sleep.
> "Wow... that was not enjoyable..."
>To clarify, since it really wasn't clear previously, experiences of UNKNOWN GIRL are... well, unknown. Sleepytime is just a convenient place to fit in her parts of the story.
>The dream you DID have was rather interesting, however. In your dream... you woke up just like any normal day. Rinoa hadn't been there, your doorknob wasn't crystalline, your father wasn't gone... but the first thing you did when you "woke up" was pull something out of your pocket and do something with it. It seemed like it was... kind of like those cell phone things. Except this one was small and convenient, instead of like a brick. In your dream, you know that most people had one.
>The dream continued to differ slightly from real life, as you went downstairs and turned on the television; it was in color! And in the corner of the room, there was a small little computer with a color screen too! And it could do all kinds of fascinating things, unlike the computers you know in real life.
>Similar differences occurred throughout the rest of your dream as you went through a relatively normal day. Cars were faster and more gas efficient, and put out less exhaust. Music could be carried around in little plastic things and played to yourself with things that went in your ears. With television and "Internet", people could see stuff from all over the world.
>But, even though everything seemed so wonderful compared to the world you know... something was missing. People acted different. Personal values were more... well, not in a good way, really. You felt like the most important things were slowly being forgotten about, or pushed under the rug. It just didn't feel quite right.
>Of course, it was only a dream.
