[ tony has been at the mercy of nightmares all throughout his life. manifestations of his own guilt, trauma and fears, they haunt him relentlessly, making sleep something he tries to avoid most days. there is always a sense of awareness that he's caught in a dream, but sometimes, even with that prevailing knowledge, everything still feels so incredibly real.
he hates it.
there is no rhyme or reason to dreams, yet they somehow manage to force someone into confronting what they so desperately attempt to ignore during the day. he doesn't know what this one has in store for him, but he can already feel the effects it's having on him — an increase in heart rate and blood pressure, muscles tensing in anticipation, senses alert to even the slightest of sounds. his body tells him to run and hide, to get ready, yet his brain tells him that there is nothing to fear.
it doesn't stop him from keeping his path close to the trees, a source of concealment. of course, it could all be futile. something is coming after him and he has a pretty decent idea that he won't be able to outrun it for long. he probably won't be able to beat it in a fight either. not without his suit on him.
and if he really thinks on it, he might not even be able to outsmart it. after all, this is his dream, right...? ]
