Aramis was unable to keep it to himself. He'd had those odd dreams again, and since Carmen was both sort of IN them, and the only person he could easily talk to, it was Carmen he was looking for. He held a notebook that was now nearly full of various dream journals/stories, as well as a few sketches with minor skill. They were recognizable as sketches of two different people, at least, as well as some giant spiders and a few other things.
Now to see if he could get even Carmen to believe that he honestly wasn't making this up. Looking around, he finally spotted his friend and walked over quietly, sitting across from Carmen with his notebook and sketch pages set to the side. "Hey, Carmen? Any chance I could have a... few minutes?" he asked softly.

When Carmen heard footsteps he threw some notebook paper over his sketchbook and tried to look like he cared about education. When he realized it was Aramis he rolled his eyes and flipped the paper away from his sketchbook, going back to what he was doing.
He looked up again at Aramis' voice, casting a glance from his face to the notebook he was carrying with him. He was silent for a moment looking quizzically at boy across from him. After a minute he shrugged indicating for Aramis to continue speaking.

Aramis noticed what Carmen was really doing and grinned, then pulled his notebook over. "Alright... I can't really talk to anyone else who might be able to help me or just listen, and you're kind of involved so..."
He paused, then glanced at his notebook and continued, "I've been having a lot of really strange dreams. I mean, I'm dreaming of elves, and even IN elvish, and I don't even know any. My parents do, but I kinda refused to learn on principle... Anyway, at first I thought it was because I was reading the Tolkien novels for class, but now I've been reading Asimov and I'm still dreaming of elves. Except it's two specific elves, that look sort of like you and me. I've only seen the one really, except the other in reflections. All they ever call each other is Car and Ara... like we first called each other. But the dreams almost never seem to have anything to do with me or my day outside of that. And it feels like sometimes there are like years between each dream... I've been writing them down, and I tried to do a sketch because the images won't go away. It's worse than getting a song stuck in my head. Mostly though, it's the fights that stick. And there's another person... tall and dark and I think he wants to kill the elves. I really don't like him, and nothing I do keeps me from dreaming about this. Sometimes they're nightmares... in one I even got hurt in the shoulder, like the Fae, except it was a giant spider..."
He sighed, looking at the notebook again. "I have another of these in my room, and it's just as full. I've been drawing so much I'm actually starting to get some sort of talent, and I used to be completely unable to draw... It's really weird."
Looking at Carmen with a slightly confused expression, Aramis sighed. "You don't think I've gone completely insane, do you?"
