Characters: Futomimi and you!
Setting: Room 1-18 to begin with, moving to floor 10 afterwards
Format: Either
Summary: Futomimi discovers sleep paralysis and fishes. Not together.
Warnings: None so far.

Sleep paralysis would not be so bad without the impression of something terrible looming over him. After ten extremely long minutes, Futomimi can finally sit up in his unknown bed, looking around the room with wide eyes, his heart thumping and his hair askew.

After having found his usual clothes in the trunk at the foot of his bed and changed, Futomimi set off to explore this strange new world whose rules allowed him, a Manikin, to live. On his way down the Tower, the sight and sound of water caught his attention, and he entered Floor 10. There was indeed water there, but it was suspended by some kind of magic and full of living creatures swimming peacefully. Futomimi was so fascinated by the sight he forgot to look where he was going.

"Is that you, Naoki?" Futomimi called again, getting closer still. The Demi-Fiend seemed more feral than usual, but he still had his heart, he was sure of it.

The fish continued to slash until it was able to move itself right back into the floating blocks of water and it flew away swiftly. That was alright...Naoki didn't feel as hungry anymore. In fact he felt a pit to his stomach and a strange amount of shame as he realize what he'd been doing lately. His eyes darted to the floor for a second before he answered.

"Yeah..."

Futomimi stood before him without fear, even smiling just a little bit, so great was his joy to have found a familiar face in this unsettling building. "It's very good to see you. Are you well?"
