[ as soon as the vision starts the tentacles all ease their grip, as if, like her, memorized by the nightmare. she takes shuddering breath after shuddering breath, her mouth dropping open as she tries to make sense of what the fuck. ]
[ there's a strange disconnect between reality right now, because that could happen, should happen, and... would be happening if raven wasn't standing five feet away, right? right?! ]
[ she opens her mouth, but for a moment she can't speak. or maybe that's just because her brain has yet to catch up with her. ] Raven, watch me, watch us, please.
[shit, he wants to. he's tempted to close the distance and kiss her again, kiss her through whatever must be going through her mind right now, but he needs to get a grip on himself. with a hard swallow, he takes another step back and reaches for the door]
...a- alright, good, [ she stumbles a few steps back until she hits the adjacent wall, her stance widening as one of the tentacles disappears beneath her skirt. ] becaahahhhah. [ her face scrunches for a moment, gaze hitting the floor after a moment as she starts panting. ]
Raven.
I'm trying. I swear I'm trying.
[ she paws at her uniform until her fingers catch one of the tears from earlier, and then she's pulling at the fabric until it's peeling away from her body to reveal her bare, scaled chest. ]
...just feel like I'm, ah, like I'm going to burst.
[ if she were in her right mind she probably wouldn't blame him. though, honestly... she can't blame him now either... mostly because she barely realizes what's going on. the kiss is amazing, not that she expected any less, and it leaves her lightheaded enough that when she "comes to" he's gone. she'd make a comment, but the tentacles keep her preoccupied, fully intending to see just what her limits are, ... ]
[ good-bye raven. sorry it had to end like this. ]

I know. I...
[his resolve crumbles and he quickly strides over to her, just long enough to kneel down and kiss her deeply]
I wish I was stronger. But I'm not.

[lets go of her and practically runs out of the building]
