    Summary

    He remembers, eyes squeezed shut against the swell of nausea and vertigo that claws through him, being not-quite-thirteen, and listening eagerly to Mr. Clarke explain the science behind dreams.

    “Dreams,” he’d said, “are often seen as these sacred experiences, something that has to have a deeper meaning. We have centuries of examples of dream interpretation, the art of examining commonalities between different dreams to find a single interpretation.”

    “The thing is,” he’d continued, “dreams are just your brain’s way of processing and regurgitating information; a fruit-salad of information, so-to-speak. Sure, it can mean something, but it’s more likely to be a random grab-bag of facts and feelings that you’ve come across in life.”

    A fruit-salad of information. Here, in the dark bathroom at a little past three in the morning, Mike breathes carefully, and tries to dissect where the supposed ingredients of his fucked-up dream salad actually came from.

    Vecna is weak. Injured. He's still strong enough to hit the Party where it hurts.

    having not read the linked tweet before reading the fic, i loved figuring out what was going on as the story went. and there’s something about mikes friends seeing him better when he’s not even in his own body.

    Summary

    "...Mr. Grace?"

    Colt froze.

    He had turned instinctively at the voice - and for a single moment he saw three or four kids crowding the doorframe of the classroom, and one of them, a girl in a bright yellow jacket, had her hand over her mouth in shock.

    "Mr. Grace!"

    Or - Colt Seavers visits Grover Cleveland Middle School.
