[It's late at night, and Arthur is sitting at the bar, a glass of scotch beside him. He has something in his hand, but it isn't visible, so it's clearly something quite small.]

I've got a question for... anyone who feels like indulging me. [He drops the object in his hand down on the bar, just out of the shot.] What do you dream about?

What I'm wondering is... [He takes a sip of his drink, frowning a little.] After a breach, do you dream as the person you were, or the person you are? [Arthur can't answer that question, himself, since he doesn't dream at all without the PASIV. SUCKS TO BE HIM.]

[Private to Iris]
I found a few articles relevant to our last conversation. Thought they might interest you:

[And attached will be a very brief list of articles about dream sharing technology and how it can be used in psychotherapy and military training. All the good, legal stuff. Nothing about extraction, naturally.]

[OOC: So I changed my mind for the millionth time; let's say for reference thta Arthur was one of the nicer soldiers working in the facility during the breach. So folks are free to remember him being sort of not a jerk.]

Dreaming as another species... I have to say, that's a new concept for me.

Thanks.

It was to me, too. I actually wasn't sure that they weren't mine at first- they were very vivid and unfamiliar. Then I realized it was dreaming with me, as well.

How much can you communicate with it?

Have you ever jokingly referred to a part of your own body as a separate entity? "My stomach says that I need to eat more." "My head is arguing with my heart."

Imagine it something like that. There's a constant awareness of each other's wants and needs.

Got it. Thanks for answering my questions.
