Regarding The Dream Catcher RP (mine):
Dawn didn't fall down screaming. She actually admitted to being a puppet of the Dream Catcher, but apologized and showed emotion. When she fell, she fell like how a puppet does when their strings are cut -- lifeless and unable to move. After that, her form changed drastically, which I would think would freak me out.
Besides, it helps to explain the series of events, rather than jumping into the one you think you will react most to. I have (or had -- it diminished) a slight headache (then), so it took some effort to write that.
