"It was one of those odd moments, where the edges were funny and I couldn't see around the back, he was just standing there looking at me. He does that sometimes, where he makes the sun go "pop" and suddenly he's mister dark and gloomy. I didn't like him like that very much. I suddenly realized that my hair was purple and hanging to my waist, and that my hands had turned into fishes again. Maybe that was what annoyed Dream the most about me. I pulled myself together, I almost hoped he would laugh… he didn't.
"I am the youngest, though we are eternal I am still the youngest, except now… The new Dream is funnier, he isn't as cranky and he has more patience with me, I remember how awkward it was with the new Despair, but she settled in quickly. But Dream, he's changed so much, he always has the shiny green…ummm…..Emerald, yes, that's the word. He always carries it with him, Matthew seemed a little bit annoyed when Morpheus left, but now he follows Dream, giving him advice, Lucien also likes him… "Ooh Lucien lent me a book a few days ago, it was all crispy and he told me that on no account was I to eat it, it had pretty pictures of kitties and… sorry I'm going off topic aren't I?
"Well, anyway, oh look, butterflies, umm, ok sorry I'll continue my story. Well there was a little girl, and she had a little curl, right in the middle of her fore- sorry, maybe I should stop now."
With that Delirium stands and walks away, her rainbow colored hair changing in the fading light, her ripped clothes blowing around her in a gentle breeze, you can't help but feel a shiver run down your spine, as if you just entered a place you can never return from. She turns around, her miss-matched eyes glimmering, her smile wide. She waves slightly and turns back, walking into the distance, a large dog pads up to her and she squeals in delight… yes, she may be Delirium, but somewhere, deep inside, is a flicker of the young innocent Delight that once was. The childish giggles reach your ears.
Welcome to Deliriums Realm.
