Dream | Lucid | Commentary ƒ, "False Awakening" | ø, "Reality Check" | Ħ, "Aware of Dream and Real Stimuli" A group of influential political figures along and I were cornered on a platform connected to a massive structure of catwalks suspended 50 feet over water in the middle of a bay. Armed combatants blocked every exit, keeping a firm perimeter above our stage. Plunging into the ocean was the only escape at this point, but everyone was dressed too well for that. Stepping "outside" the desperate scene, I turned to a table piled high with blank notebook paper and began folding paper airplanes, which I then threw back into the scene, trying to land them on the platform so we would have some means to fly away. A few flew between the catwalks and dived into the sea, but the politicians managed to catch one and board it. Almost like a play-within-a-play, I could step outside the current situation and give myself help from the outside, like a meddling narrator. Unfortunately, I don't remember if using the paper planes to escape actually worked.
