Question of the Day!
Does your WoL/OC have any irrational fears?
Fear can be a rational thing, and there are plenty of times that I feel rational fear. The creeping dread before a battle. The anxiety in waiting for a friend outside the medicus office. The absolute nervousness that existed in awaiting a deployment. These were all rational fears, and very real. That moment where you wonder if your parachute will deploy after jumping from a perfectly good airship.
Irrational fears though, those certainly do exist. I do have them. Being unconscious during surgery. Being restrained. I hate it, I can't stand it, and I feel like I need to scream and wail and fight with every ounce of my being to get out from it. I love the moonlight. I love the stars. I love a dimly lit room. I am petrified of the dark. I don't mean night time in a room, with just faint ambient light coming in from under the door or through the window, or the subtle illumination from a clock. I mean the dark. Truly dark. The dark inside a place with no light. The dark when you are twenty fulm under the water at night where true darkness exists. The darkness inside a cave with no light source. Dark where no matter how much time you give your eyes, the light will not avail you. I am petrified of the dark.
