[ Wash's nightmares have been worse since the Null, and he isn't really sure why. They're not all about the Null and it's not like that's the only reminder he's had lately of other beings in his head. Maybe he's just stressed that it'll happen again, that they haven't found a way to prevent it yet, and it's just manifesting in more bad dreams? But tonight's not an exception. It's a bad one. He went to sleep with Kyna in his arms and wakes up tangled in the sheet, breathless and panicked. There's no real sense of "nighttime" anymore with the double suns, but he hopes he didn't scream and wake a neighbor.
Kyna's peering at him worriedly and he scrubs at his face, feeling sick and guilty. He needs to stop doing this to her. ]
