[ Maruki doesn't know him, not really– but he does. In the way that no one is truly a stranger in dreams, and– something else.
That would be strange enough, and then there's the fact that he hasn't dreamt since he regained Azathoth's abilities and was able to leave that facsimile of an office. He relives recent memories when he sleeps, sometimes, but that's the extent of it.
Either Somnius is fucking with him, or his subconscious is beginning to break in new and exciting ways. Perhaps both.
His own pantlegs are similarly rolled. The water is cool, laps at his shins. It's– peaceful, he thinks, though he's on edge by design.
Maybe they're sharing dreams again. Maybe he's new. Maruki keeps his voice soft so as not to scare him as he announces his presence. ]
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to intrude. Are you... lost out here?
