[... Sonic, half the game is going to wring your neck for that read alone, c'mon. Why else would Zeke be so intent on getting them all to therapy?? Hanako, on his end, just opts to pull a face at that response, crossing his arms behind his head as he lounges back a little in mid-air.]

Boooo... you say all of that, and you're still the same guy you are back in the real world? Lame. You said you can be whoever you wanna be, right?

[Not that Hanako can recognize somebody who's absolutely and wholly confident in themselves and who they are. Couldn't be him!!

His eyes travel back out to the gathering, Dreamers and regular folk alike milling about the field, his expression tempering to something a bit more pensive. If only it were as easy as leaving all of your troubles behind in the real world...]

... anyway, it's not as simple as all of that. Sure, we get to be the people we wanna be here, but that doesn't mean all our problems are gone when we're awake. Most Dreamers Awaken 'cos of Nightmares, don't they? And happy, content people don't exactly generate those things on their own. Sure, being a Dreamer means we can protect the rest of the people here from them, but... it's not like we immediately eliminated those problems from reality just because we can fight a bunch of monsters or anything.
