    1. Dream - Training At Disney Castle

      Date of Dream: FRI 17 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 689 - Training At Disney Castle


      The dream started with my at my house; the surroundings outside seeming like it was very early, like it was still night time but I could see. Back to what was going on in the house; my aunty had come over for a visit. Both my parents were at home but only my mum was seemingly around at the time. My aunty was talking to us about an opportunity she had for me as some sort of work experience, it had something to do with all these photos that were now all of sudden lying on the floor. I thought the project was a bit corny and so I didn’t like the idea of it. However, my mum got angry and in-fact, both my parents as a collective were angry (my aunty was just disappointed), so I realised I had to get out of there as fast as I could.

      I only had a little bit of a head-start to scramble out of the house once I then realised that my parents were chasing me! I rushed out the back door and then scampered around the house to try and get to the front. Though I realised though that if I exited through the streets, my parents would detect me and be likely to get me. So instead, I flew what felt freakishly high, and went over the roof, escaping from the back blocks of my group of houses. As I then went back down towards the streets and started walking again, I called for Dreamy WB but she didn’t respond. I then tried for 18-Volt, no response from him either but there was this energy suggesting that he was still angry with me. I thought I had run out of options, so although I couldn’t get help, I had to keep moving or my parents would catch up with me.

      However, as I started walking up the hill towards the milk-bar, I saw Riku casually walking on the other side of the road (in his KH3 appearance) that the milk-bar was on. I then remembered that Riku was my third option and so yelled out to him so he could hear me across the street. It took quite a lot of tries but he eventually noticed me, quickly turning his head sideways to see me and then he crossed the road to come to my side.

      Riku looked at me like he could tell I was anxious from my parents, so he came and hugged me. However, when he put his arms around me, both he and I ascended into the air and I realised he wanted to take me somewhere. For a while, it just seemed like he was transporting me casually within my area, but then he paused while in mid-air and told me to make sure I was holding onto him tightly. I realised that he wanted to fly me to Kingdom Hearts. So then I made sure I was holding onto him for dear life; my arms around his neck, my body pressed into his chest, and my head perched over one of Riku’s shoulders.

      However, Riku seemed to hesitate his next move, as if he noticed some sort of risk. He gently pushed my head off his shoulder and put it ‘behind his’ in regards to the direction we were supposed to be facing for this action to work. Once he made sure I was secure and ‘out of harms way’, he flew extremely fast with his head slightly backwards, however swinging it forward at the last minute in order to have enough impact to bash the sky open, forming an inter-dimensional hole. At first, the hole seemed to be nothing but ‘darkness’, but as he flew back and put me back into a normal position, we could actually see into the other world. It was at that point that I realised he not only wanted to take me to Kingdom Hearts, but ultimately to Disney Castle which was a sub-dimension of Kingdom Hearts, so he had to take me through yet another ‘rift’.

      Once Riku had taken me through all the necessary ‘holes’, I realised we were finally at the Disney world, but it didn’t look cartoony; rather it was quite a realistic setting. The grounds looked the setting in the Lord of The Rings / The Hobbit movies where they’d have the major battles; the grass was a very lush green, the field being wide and mountains being seen in the distance. As we were going across the field, I noticed Riku’s altitude getting lower and lower until eventually, he landed us right in front of Disney Castle (which did look like the actual Disney Castle but smaller) and released me.

      I realised that there was an event going on at Disney Castle in which Riku wanted to utilise to help train me for how I could deal with my parents. It was something called ‘Ninja Battles’, even though it had absolutely nothing to do with Ninjas. It was some sort of physical game but I cannot describe the specific actions. First it was just me and Riku and although we were battling each other, I didn’t mind as it was only for training and no one was actually going to hurt the other.

      I was stopped though with the realisation that my parents had found their way into this realm. I ran in a panic to see my mum walking down a now visible road in the distance while looking down at her phone (suspecting she was in contact with my dad). I ran back to Riku and was talking at him like at motormouth, asking him what on Earth I should do with the knowledge of my parents finding their way in. However, Riku’s calm response and unique perspective surprised me. He said that they may also have come here to improve themselves and to just leave them be.

      We were than able to get back into the ‘Ninja Battles' and I told Riku that although I was going up against him, I found it fun as I knew we were only training. He gave a slight smile and then we got back into it. However this time, others also seemed to join us and it was now between 6 people rather than just the 2 of us. The other 4 were random, unidentified Disney characters. After continuing to playfully feud for awhile, the dream ended and I woke up to an early time at dawn.

    2. Dream - Insult Competition

      by , 07-20-2020 at 02:55 PM
      Date of Dream: THU 16 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 688 - Insult Competition


      I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, I came into some sort of very large theatre, with groups of people I have interacted with throughout all stages of my life; the majority though, were those from my high school. I remember we were going to watch some sort of movie but I have forgotten what the movie was about. There was all this time before the movie and I noticed people were moving around the large room, with lots of floor space, and interacting with each other.

      Lea/Axel from Kingdom Hearts approached me and he said that I was going to be facing him for Round 1 of this competition where we had to try and insult each other as brutally as we could. The winner was obviously who affected the other the most, and Lea said that the winner would then face the final boss, Riku. I had my wits about me and knew the dream was manipulating them, so even though I lost against Lea, I was glad that I wouldn’t have to go and face my otherwise influenced dream guide.

      Later on in the dream, I was in another scene; on the ‘lakeside’ boardwalks again that seems to be a recurring area across my dreams. This time, I seemed to have a concern about my brother and so decided to call out for Dreamy WB to come and help me. She wasn’t coming at all though. Eventually, I saw Riku (KH3 appearance) and so called for him, but he actually didn’t stop. Rather he kept walking on and so I actually had to chase after him. In-fact, he left the scene and that’s when I realised that although it looked like Riku, it actually wasn’t in; the dream brought in a fake to trick me. After that, I woke up.

    3. Dream - The Dream's Unethical Employment

      by , 07-20-2020 at 02:53 PM
      Date of Dream: TUE 14 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 687 - The Dream's Unethical Employment


      I can’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, it seemed a cold rainy night but then the sky was lit so I could still see from natural light. Along with my brother in the car, I had to drive my grandma to the seemingly local hospital for her to get some tests done. Compared to real life, the hospital grounds were a complex maze of roads and roundabouts and it was hard to find where the right building was.

      The dream did a weird shift with time. I was still driving the car but now my grandma seemed to be in the hospital. I ended up for some reason slowly driving past the hospital and through the windows, I could see nothing but elevators everywhere and all there doors were open, all the elevators large and having a very ominous look about them. As I was driving past, I had the passing thought of ‘guess I need Riku again’ but the thought was nowhere near strong enough to warrant a scene change or an appearance from Riku himself; the dream continued its course but I wasn’t disappointed.

      I was then seen to be leaving the hopsital grounds and I had to find a way to get back onto the correct side of the freeway to get back home, which in the dream was a completely different suburb to IRL. This was the part of the dream where my brother seemed to be very bossy in the car and so he was telling what to do but not helping me. Eventually, I didn’t manage to find my way onto the freeway and ended up in this unknown suburb.

      I then seemed to be by myself and that’s when Riku appeared in his KH3 appearance. He didn’t come to help me with anything specifically; rather he came to share something with me as a friend, in-fact it’s like he was hoping I could help. He looked disgusted as he told me “the dream’s making me work for a strip club!”. Instead of trying to help Riku find a way out, I thought it’d be easier just to cooperate with the dream, so I reassured him that I would go and work at the strip club as well. Riku still wasn’t impressed with the idea of his forced employment but his energy was suggesting he felt better about it with having me for support.

      However, after this, the dream quickly moved me on to another scene and it was said that to prove I have what it takes to work at the strip club, I needed to work at KFC first. I was indeed shown in a KFC uniform and I was approaching the oven full of chickens. As I picked up a pair of tongs, I was shown flipping all the individual pieces of chicken over, one by one. That scene then ended.

      There was then a scene with my mum and we seemed to be on this odd looking flying ship and was flying through this really cool dark cave with occasional glowing crystals of blue light. As we got deeper in though, it became just an empty black void and in-fact, everything outside the ship felt empty, even myself inside the ship felt weightless. I was freaked out, but at the same time, because my mum was with me, I felt fascinated and like the experience was so surreal.

      I was then on a beach and I was working at a seaside restaurant. My job was to serve the customers on the tables but in a weird way. I had to purchase the food and then give it to them. I asked a staff member how to do it but they weren’t helpful and were telling me things I already knew. As I paid for apple juice and then took a bottle out of the fridge, about to give it to a customer, I asked; “and how am I supposed to make money from this?”. I suddenly noticed Australian singer Taylor Henderson sitting at a table and he piped up and said to me, “the money they give you is what you make”. I can’t remember what else he said and I can’t remember anymore of the dream.

    4. Dream - Reality Is Believing

      Date of Dream: MON 13 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 686 - Reality Is Believing


      I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, my family and I were just finishing up at our beach-side holiday destination. On the way back home, I seemed to end up by myself but at another accommodation complex, somewhere within the Dandenong Ranges. It was an entire group of people and I heard that it was supposed to split up between males and females. I was a special case though; the person told me that I was going to be in the mens’ cabin to be with Riku. As the announcement was being made, a short sub-scene was playing with Riku, supposedly in the cabin, in his KH2 appearance, wearing his Organisation XIII coat, but he looked happy and had this fatherly energy about him like he was ready to care for me. I was now so excited and couldn’t wait until we got to be in our cabins.

      The next scene felt like we were finally getting access to the cabins, but the scene actually took place at my other grandparents’ house. Apparently there was still the females cabin and the males cabin, but then I also heard that there was a now a third group made called the Dream Eaters cabin (Dream Eaters IRL is the Kingdom Hearts interpretation of Dream Guide) and apparently I was going to be with the Dream Eaters. I then found out that it would consist of 2 men and 2 ladies.

      I went in the back room behind my grandparents’ garage and there were 4 laminated pieces of paper in there, who were supposedly going to be my Dream Eaters. One of them was Riku, and another one of them was WBD… I can’t remember the other man and woman. I felt more excited than in the last scene and I realised that I had to awaken them. I went up to the couch which the 4 pieces of paper were laying on and I recited a repetitive prayer over them to awaken them.

      Three of the Dream Eaters had awaken, but I was notably struggling with Riku. However, Master Yen Sid appeared, supposedly walking in from the garage and he caught my attention. I turned towards him and he spoke to me, saying something like “you might be struggling because you think he’s not real but in order to awaken him, you need to think he’s real”. As Master Yen Sid walked off again I felt this new, confident energy within me as I recited something very short and indeed Riku became human, once again in his KH2, Organisation XIII appearance but again without the blindfold.

      I was excited to see the other Dream Eaters but I was most excited to see him and almost screamed in excitement when he got up off the couch. Riku didn’t hesitate and went outside into the backyard with me. Once we were outside, we were talking with each other and he was laughing as he then did cartwheels on the grass in an attempt to entertain me but I could tell he was having fun while doing them too. However, the fun couldn’t last forever and the dream scene changed again.

      I was now by myself and was apparently getting ready to see Edward (Ed) B at a convention. There was a sub-scene of him talking to me. He said that he’d only allow two people in the room at a time because there was going to be no one around to protect him; from this, there was this grave feeling that I would miss out and that I had travelled to the con for nothing. My surrounding energy was projecting the thought of ‘he seems to care more about himself than any of his fans. Why can’t he take alternative measures to make sure everyone gets their turn?’. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.



      Dream No. 686

      Dream Guide: Riku, WBD, (+1 man), (+1 woman)
      Lucid?: No



      I was unpleasantly shocked to see that WBD was portrayed as a dream guide in this dream, because IRL, she's one of my online community members that has mistreated me in the past. In contrast though, I was pleasantly surprised and honoured to see Master Yen Sid, and the fact that he seemed to already have an awareness of the connection between me and Riku. Also, my dreams seem to use the term 'Dream Eaters', but that's basically KH-DDD's interpretation of 'Dream Guides'.

      Dream No. 685 - Ice-Cream At The Cinemas


      I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, the whole family were shopping in the main area of Ferntree Gully at the large Woolworths store. I forgot specifically what we bought there but I can remember it was all things pleasant, seeing as though we were on a family outing. On the way back home, there was talk between me and my mum that we wanted to stop by this cinema, not to watch the movies but because apparently they sold the best homemade ice-cream there and we wanted to stock up enough to take home for the Coronavirus lockdown.

      Once we got to the cinema complex, we thought it was shut completely and was disappointed that we couldn’t get our ice-cream. My mum and I still decided to go into the shop and we managed to convince the staff to give us a tub. I ended up choosing the strawberry ice-cream. The rest of the scene showed a scene of mum and I back at home trying to make another one of their flavours ourselves; a mix of chocolate fudge brownie and cookies and cream. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

    6. Dream - The Other Plant Nursery

      by , 07-12-2020 at 03:37 PM
      Date of Dream: SAT 11 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 684 - The Other Plant Nursery


      I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, my mum, brother and I had pre-booked tickets to see a movie. I was the one driving us to an old styled cinema in a small town. I had an idea of where I wanted to park, but either my mum or my brother (I’ve forgotten which one) told me to park where ‘The Brass’ would normally park. I ended parking in their area, though I was relieved because there also seemed to be other public patrons parked there as well.

      We then ended up inside the cinema and my dad was with us well. I can recall that were waiting to see a film that was sort of a cross between Ice Age and Star Wars. As were waiting to go inside the theatre, there was a lady that seemed to catch my attention. She seemed like a very nice person and was asking me to do something for her; to sing something or learn something to sing for her. Before we were going to leave the area, I recalled that I had to see that person (her name was stated in dream but I have forgotten it). The dream then changed scenes.

      For the second scene, I was at my house and was trying to invite people over to a party that I was hosting. First of all, on my brother’s phone, I managed to contact someone with the identity of ‘Farting Tart’, we ended up having a small conversation but I forgot what it was about. I then scrolled down my brother’s contacts to see who else he had on his phone and I was surprised to see that he had Riku’s number. Even though it felt strange that Riku was more connected to my brother in this instance, I decided to send him what seemed to be an awkwardly short text to invite him to the party. When the text was sent though, this energy descended upon me, hinting that Riku was actually likely to make an appearance later in the dream.

      I was then at a familiar shopping centre with my family, but then it was distorted enough so it felt like an unfamiliar shopping centre. I forgot what we were specially doing at the time, but I remember we went into Target and we saw a set of elevators in the store. My brother said that in order to see his friends, we had to go down them. I was wondering why we had to go down when we were pretty much already on the ground floor, but then I figured this could have been a way to enter into another dimension.

      The dream skipped showing us going down the elevator but it felt like we were in this so called ‘dimension’ when the dream shifted scenes. It was just me and my brother as we were the only ones that supposedly went down. We ended up in this large but beautifully antique area of shops, almost like Sovereign Hill. We ended up walking past the local Lindt Cafe and went inside to see what we could snag.

      Inside the shop, the lady at the counter seemed to be normal, but also to be very cold and somewhat scheming. I found a hot chocolate whisk that I liked and brought it to the counter. When the lady calculated it, with my brother standing beside me, she said that the item would cost $41.63 and I immediately stopped her, claiming that it a rip-off. I then turned to my brother as I said that the one we got from an IRL chocolate shop (which is actually a true story) was only $5.00. The lady said that she would reconsider and charge us as if were buying 2 for 1; however, the price ended up not being cheaper, but rather more expensive, showing $56.58 on the computer. I was outraged.

      Through feeling, I noticed that I had screwed up my face at the lady. As I held the whisk to my brother, it showed pieces of chocolate falling of it; as if the chocolate had already melted, the actual fault is hard to describe. I then let the lady have it; I told her that she was going against consumer law. I specifically stated that goods to be abiding by consumer law, they had to be fit for purpose, as well as that they had also to match the description. I then pointed vigorously at the collapsing chocolate whisk as I said to the lady “this does not match the description”. I then stormed out of the shop as I was then on my own but bumped into my university friend RV and told her about what nonsense I had just experienced, explaining the principles of consumer law to her as well.

      By myself again, I entered this nursery shop which sold all these plants and other gardening supplies and there I seemed to join up with my old high school friend JSa. It felt just like the old days in real life, we walked around, looking at all the different plants while we spoke and I tried to make her laugh. At one point though, something caught my eye. On a high counter in a corner, there was a small green hologram of Riku’s face, suggesting that he was somewhere present in the dream. I left JSa where she was and went by myself to investigate.

      It didn’t take long before I saw a middle aged man wondering around the nursery, he was a large build and was wearing a black short-sleeved t-shirt and medium washed denim jeans. Although this looked, and sounded, like a completely different person, there was this energy always pulsating from him to tell me that this was in-fact Riku. From my end of the store, I yelled out “Riku!”, numerous times, but the man kept on ignoring me. The man, however, started walking away and so I had to walk quickly to catch up to him. As he kept walking, I tried to grab his attention; “Riku, please! Wait!”; he kept on going. I knew what was going on. He didn’t know who I was or what my intention was, so he was probably thinking, in-fact hoping that I’d just go away and leave him alone.

      I realised that he was about to enter into a ‘parallel’ version of the nursery as I was supposedly in the ‘real life’ version of the nursery and we was going to enter back to where he was, being the ‘dream’ version of the nursery. Before he went into the other one, I ran as fast as I could, saying with urgency, “Riku, I’m your dreamer, I’m here to help you” as I then finally caught him, hugging him from behind, putting my hands on gently his sides and so he was forced to stand still but had an energy radiating off him like he was annoyed, and like he was still doubtful to trust me, like anyone would want to help him. Once I let go of him, he crossed to ‘the other side’ and so I had to make a decision, whether I’d stay where I was, or go to Riku’s version of the nursery but that meant I had to leave JSa behind and perhaps wouldn’t be able to return.

      I carefully made my choice and ended up going to pursue Riku. I caught him in the back corner of the ‘other’ nursery and he grumbled something at me, I forgot what he said, but it was in this deep, overly Southern, hunter like voice. But I kept deflecting what he said and kept reassuring him about who I was and that I was there for him. Eventually he stopped babbling but still didn’t sound happy. He did say though that I had to work for him and it sounded like he was going to put me through a tough slog.

      Reluctantly, I agreed but then also told him as a dreamer that I wanted him to carry me and I taught him how he could do it, telling him that ‘the laws don’t exist’ (meaning the laws of gravity and other physics). He took a deep sigh and then stood slightly bent over, with his back to me, insinuating that I climb onto his back. Once I secured myself, he lifted to stand up straight again, and although he wasn’t holding me at all (and neither was I holding onto him him), I didn’t fall off. Still with a subtle energy of annoyance, he walked over to where the supposed ‘work’ was.

      When we got to the bench, Crash Bandicoot also appeared, in his wacky crazy demeanour just as he’s portrayed in the IRL games; also, Crash was not distorted in appearance, unlike Riku who heavily was. However, the distorted Riku didn’t seem to be too happy with his companion at all; in-fact it felt as if Crash Bandicoot was with him as a replacement because Sora was still missing in Kingdom Hearts. As Riku was giving me instructions on what to do, Crash kept making these manic noises and ‘spun’ himself into the distance. Catching Riku’s attention, he looked over at Crash and said to me in his weird Southern voice, something like “that bandicoot’s done nothing at all”.

      There were three ‘trays’, one on each side of the bench, and Riku told me that I was to fill them with the fertiliser that was in the bag on the bench. There was barely any fertiliser in the trays and that was supposedly what Crash had already done. I thought Riku was being a bit harsh towards me and still wasn’t convinced that he was being a good dream guide; so I said I’d do it, but that he had to still carry me. He tried complaining but I quickly interrupted him and told him he could carry me between trays. So using the same method as he did before, he got me on his back and moved me between the trays. However, I realised I could do my job properly as the fertiliser in the bad had turned into some sort of cut up capsicum and tomato salad mix, but I filled the tray with this to show that I was trying.

      When I finished the last try, I told Riku that I was done. He didn’t look impressed but then as his dreamer, I politely told him that I did the best I could. He went over to look in the fertiliser bag and he seemed to have a slight change of heart when he saw that I had indeed emptied it. He sighed and said, “let’s just leave it to someone who knows what they’re doing”, insinuating that the distorted Riku felt at fault for the group’s project failure.

      However, he brought a try full of water and told me that he wanted to drain it. Without enough time to say anything, he put it on my dress, so now my dress would get dirty. As he was lowering the try, I panicked as fast as I could, like “Riku what are you doing!? You’re going to make my dress wet!”. but as I said, he just put it there without a second thought. I sighed as I realised and told him, “It’s okay Riku, remember the laws don’t exist and so my dress should be try in no time (rather than staying dirty and wet)”, and indeed, the dream camera showed my dress and it dried immediately, with no stains left behind either. I saw that I was wearing a teal and white chequered design.

      After that, Riku prompted me to come with him as he was supposedly going to jump through the huge portal on the wall to go to Kindgom Hearts. Although his distorting was still making him nasty and sour, I felt an energy from Riku like he now appreciated me as his dreamer, like I had finally showed him that I was enough. He still wasn’t happy with Crash though and as Riku was helping me through the portal, Crash was skipping towards it himself, still making his stupid ‘hannah montana’ noises. I had a feeling within me that as soon as we got to the other side, Riku’s distortion would lift off. However, before we could even touch the portal, the dream ended.

      Dream No. 683 - Bad Dad


      I don’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember, I was washing up in the bathroom of my old house when my dad came in and started yelling at me for no reason. This is the only thing I could remember about this dream.

      Dream No. 682 - Change My Chair


      I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I can remember, it was the last scene of my dream and I was down in my brother’s bedroom. There was a holographic sub-scene within the scene which showed a bench, like a shop counter, and behind it were three chairs; a big one in the middle and two little ones beside it. Riku (in his KH3 appearance) appeared to sit in the middle chair and then Mickey appeared to sit in the right (left to the viewer’s POV) chair. I soon figured that the left (right to the viewer’s POV) chair was for me. However, I didn’t like how my chair was furnished and Riku looked over as I complained about wanting a more colourful weaving for my chair. That’s all I can remember about this dream.

    9. Dream - The Wrong Elevator

      by , 07-12-2020 at 03:08 PM
      Date of Dream: SUN 5 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 681 - The Wrong Elevator


      I don’t remember how this started. From where I do remember, I seemed to be outside my Chisholm 311 campus and four girls from my high school were; I can remember who one of them was but not the other three. I then ended up at a distorted version of Knox Shopping Centre where I came to Hungry Jacks in the food court. The same four girls were there but as if they were acting like bodyguards and wouldn’t let me near the ordering counter.

      The dream camera changed perspectives to third-person mode and Riku (in his KH3 appearance) was seen to be ordering at the counter. He was seen talking to the girl at the counter, as she asked him which Fanta he wanted, he pointed at the machine and said he wanted the pink one (there was orange and pink (raspberry)). He had also ordered a chicken burger which he was seen to take a bite of. Back to me; I was trying to get through the girls to the counter when all of sudden, Riku finished his order, got his drink, and came and told them they didn’t need to be there guarding the counter. As Riku than walked over to find a table; I felt cut that he bought himself a pink Fanta but didn’t get one for me. However, I felt like I shouldn’t say anything in fear of sounding rude and so I just quietly accepted my fate of getting nothing.

      Once Riku had finished his lunch, the dream had showed us just outside the food court and Riku began to speak to me. He seemed to make an observation that if I was to return to my university campus for a new semester, my familiarity with the elevator my have washed and so my fear could return, so he specifically came as he said he wanted to take me for elevator practise. We discussed that we’d attempt usage of the elevator at MYER.

      He then seemed to give me this entire preparatory speech. He put his hands on my shoulders and looked me right in the eyes, starting off with an endearment as he said “Angel, can you take control of your fears or will you let them take control of you?”. I didn’t necessarily answer as I knew it was a rhetorical question but Riku seemed to gauge from my energy that I was willing, so he directed me to go towards MYER. I ended up waiting for him at the entrance as I had gotten ahead a little bit and he needed to catch up to me.

      Once Riku caught up, he and walked into MYER, which looked significantly different than in real life. Rather than being one large floor space, the second floor we entered on just seemed to be a narrow corridor with an eventual dead end. There were two young ladies working at the counter in the entryway, in which Riku had stopped to speak to one of them. He said something to the lady like “excuse me, do you know where the lift is? I’m just taking her for some practise because she’s scared of them”. The lady was very friendly and understanding and she pointed out to Riku where the lift was. Riku signalled for me to follow him to the elevator and so I did.

      Just before we walked in, he once again asked me if I was ready. At the sight of the doors, my fear seemed to be present again but then I did say to Riku that I was going to do it. As the doors opened, Riku escorted me in and as they shut, realising I was still uneasy, he ended up encasing me in a surprisingly tight hug for him, as I peered over his left shoulder to remain true to facing my returning fear rather than hiding entirely. However, the surroundings in the lift became extremely distorted and started to look nothing like one in real life and it was actually me that told Riku that the surroundings were incorrect.

      Riku looked around and he too realised that the environment was a dud. He was now thinking about which other elevator he would take me in. He thought about ones more in the middle of the shopping centre but then he decided that the interiors of them may be too dark and therefore look ominous to me. Eventually, he decided and told me that he would take me to the elevator at the opposite end of the shopping centre as he believed this would be the next best environment to my university one.

      As he and I walked out of MYER, the same way we came in, we now past by two ladies working at the front register. An African lady was talking to another customer and the lady that Riku had spoken to before seemed to be preoccupied with her own task. However, at the last minute, the lady ended stopping us and asked Riku how we went. He told her that the attempt was a disappointment and that he’d be taking me to the one at the opposite end of the shopping centre. Just as we were about to exit MYER all together and walk to the other end, the dream ended.

    10. Dream - School Spies & Riku Out Of Reach

      by , 07-12-2020 at 12:44 PM
      Date of Dream: SAT 4 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 680 - Separated Sections


      Dream 680 A - School Spies

      I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, I was at this completely unknown place. Apparently, Dreamy WB was supposed to come and join me and she was going to be doing a primary school visit and talking to some of the children about something; I don’t remember what she was going to teach specifically. I also can’t remember how she appeared but as after she and I walked into the classroom, I started to interact with the kids while she set up for her teaching.

      In-fact, I seemed to give myself the role of being the ‘fun’ person with the children and making sure they were entertained and engaged. However, Dreamy WB and I noticed an odd device in the classroom and she realised and pointed out that this was a device set up by Kingdom Hearts’ Organization XIII to spy on us. She said that if I removed the top layer which was this brass-like coating, then they could no longer spy on us. So we went over to the cylinder-like device on between two metal posts and she helped me lift the top layer off and throw it out of the classroom like a piece of junk. However, we were mistaken as only the red centre portion of left but ANY remnants of the device in the room meant they could still spy on us, which Dreamy WB told me when she regretfully realised.

      I gestured to Dreamy WB, suggesting she should and continue her lesson while I deal with the remaining problem. So as Dreamy WB got back in her chair and started talking to the kids on the floor, I picked up the entire device and marched it out of the room. Once I got rid of the device, I noticed all these men were after me, but they weren’t necessarily in the KH black coats; still, they were bad guys, so I ended up staying outside, running around the place, and kicking every one of them in the pants like Chuck Norris in Texas Ranger. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

      Dream 680 B - Riku Out Of Reach
      I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, my family and I were coming back from a domestic holiday. It was a gray day (but not raining) and my parents seem to have a hard time finding the normal way to return home; so they deviated through all these suburbs I had never seen before. However, really close to home, the surroundings became familiar as we finished on the Monash Freeway and I was really excited to return home.

      I entered the house by myself and I was more ecstatic than anything, like I hadn’t been home in forever. I said to myself that it was time to see my ‘dreamers’ or perhaps me ‘ex-dreamers’, but then I decided that I wanted to see Riku. I remember calling for him twice as I then felt an energy calling me into my bedroom. As I hesitantly walked in, I saw a big ‘lump’ under messy bed sheets which were light blue in the dream (but currently green IRL). I realised that indeed Riku was lying in my bed under my sheets and that when I got in with him, he would wrap me in a hug; however, right as I took a step next to the bed, the stupid dream forced me awake.

    11. Dream - The Remorseful Teacher

      Date of Dream: WED 1 JUL - 2020



      Dream No. 679 - The Remorseful Teacher


      I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, I was at my primary school and I was a part of the student group again, which consisted of various people from my primary school and high school. There seemed to be a whole school assembly at the time, and the teachers that were speaking had really nasty looks on their faces, and not of a normal person either. I’ve forgotten what they said but it seemed to be a massive plot against the students; something about not letting them leave the grounds at all, like not even at the dismissal time. I knew I had to get away and fast, before someone would find out.

      So I made a run for it as soon as I could. However, I felt that a teacher did notice and so was hot on my tail, I could not afford to slow down and catch a break. As I was running towards the basketball courts though, the teacher had caught up even though I had never slowed down; it’s like the dream gave her a teleportation boost to get closer to me. Right at the other end of the oval, next to the fence, I was afraid she caught me and that I was doomed; however, all of a sudden, she seemed to undergo a powerful transformation.

      The dream camera went into a close up of her and she looked like a combination of Dreamy WB and someone I know in real life who does not have a dream guide counterpart. But then also, she seemed to have Riku’s eyes in both shape and colour. It felt somewhat scary to see an African person with green, cat-shaped eyes but at the same time, this external energy was putting me at ease, telling me I had nothing to worry about.

      Back to what the lady was doing now. She had the most shocked look ever on her face, like she realised how horrible she was acting and she could not make a clear sentence because she was in so much disbelief. However, I became assertive and asked her questions like “was your behaviour worth it?” and “Do you realise now what the others would have lead you into?”. She nodded, with her eyes still wide open and was trying to utter ‘sorry’ what seemed a million times. I could tell she wanted to help me even though she would be going against her job if she did and would likely be ratted out by the other teachers. She pointed to where I could escape and she urged me to go quickly. As I headed for the gate, the dream ended.

      Date of Dream: TUE 30 JUN - 2020



      Dream No. 678 - The Clingy Parent


      I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, I was in a distorted version of my grandparents’ plant nursery in their backyard. Like in other dreams though, this area seemed to connect to their entire outer-scape of the dream rather than just an isolated space of backyard. When I was outside, I ended up with this group of people, some I knew slightly and some I didn’t know at all. However this lady came out of nowhere; she was seemingly the mum one of my US friends. As soon as I said hi to her, she not only said hi back but she was literally acting like a stage-5 clinger to me. I literally cannot describe the ridiculousness of her actions and she was stuck with me for awhile, making the the walk in this scene feel like utter torture rather than it being enjoyable.

      The dream eventually changed scenes and I was at some sort of garden centre; but not with my mum like IRL, I was just by myself. However, I seemed to bump into one of my mum’s old school friends there and we were talking about something. My mum’s school friend ended up with me as I ended up looking at all the rest of the gardening structures in the area. Eventually, I came across these heart shaped stones which seemed to radiate really special energy off them, like they were from Kingdom Hearts in some way. They were all different designs but I could not get them all of they would be too expensive, so I had to choose carefully. That’s all I can remember about this dream.

      I don’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember; somebody who treats badly on an online community in real life found there way onto my personal server in the dream. By the time I caught that they were joined, they had taken all these screenshots of things that were posted in my server so that they could supposedly share it around. I did not hesitate to go to the commands list and hit not just the ‘kick’ button, but the ‘ban’ button.

      I was taken to this area that does not exist IRL on discord to confirm if I wanted to permanently ban this user and once again, I did not hesitate to say yes. A picture of a ‘ban-hammer’ then appeared and it felt like the most epic ban ever. It felt good to get rid of some who I knew was going to otherwise cause me great problems in the dream. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

    14. Dream - Mystery Of The Possessed Kingdom Hearts Characters

      by , 07-12-2020 at 12:27 PM
      Date of Dream: SUN 28 JUN - 2020



      Dream No. 676 - Mystery Of The Possessed Kingdom Hearts Characters


      I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, it was a simulation of Kingdom Hearts and for some time, the first-person entity in the dream was Sora (in his KH3 appearance; in-fact, all characters were in their KH3 appearance). He was in this world which seemed to be like a forest with ancient ruins scattered throughout it. The King (Mickey) was instructing him throughout a mission which seemed to, though, have some dark, creepy and somewhat psychotic vibe about it. Sora had to collect these red coins (120 of them) and the later the coins, they were harder to find and some even triggered weird events for Sora.

      The dream seemed to change scenes but it was regarding the same situation. I was now amongst Riku as well as Aqua and Terra in a different, seemingly more peaceful part of the forest. The King wasn’t there, but through his energy, we knew that Sora was in trouble. In-fact, Riku, Terra and Aqua spoke to me, wanting me to go on a scouting mission for them. Ventus was with them but he didn’t really say anything and was rather hiding being Terra and Aqua as if he was their child. I realised that the reason they wanted me to go is because as I am not an official member of Kingdom Hearts; Organisation XIII would not recognise me and so I could do whatever I wanted without being caught.

      The dream now split into two different scenes of what each party was doing. Firstly, the dream went to Riku, Ventus, Terra and Aqua who now seemed to set up base under a great big majestic tree and they were there waiting for me. Terra and Aqua were sitting on an additional stump on the side and were casually conversing with each other (though there was no sound from them, just visual) as Ventus seemed to be eating a bowl of porridge, but not by himself. Riku was spoon-feeding Ventus and I believed Riku was practising his feeding technique as a dream guide for when I would return. As Terra and Aqua had a calm, casual energy, there was a nervous energy coming off Riku like he was extremely worried that I wouldn’t make it back safely.

      Now the dream went to my scene. I was walking to this more open area and I saw these characters glowing with some light-greenish data shield around them; they were recognisable Disney characters from Kingdom Hearts. In the real life games, Donald and Goofy are Sora’s main companions but in this dream, they were his closest, nastiest prison guards. Sora didn’t have any obvious restrictions but if he moved from in-between Donald and Goofy, the possessed characters would hurt him very badly (any characters with the shields moulded around them).

      Even though the characters were extremely nasty and creepy when possessed, I walked around without a care as I recalled I would not be recognised by any of them; though my energy was that of sheer nervousness. Upon assessing the group, I shockingly noticed that Kairi was also possessed and so could also very well hurt Sora. The dream camera then went to a close-up of Sora, Donald and Goofy. Whoever was possessed would be able to say some of the nastiest, most horrible things in somewhat of a deep robotic tone; and this was Goofy at the moment, threatening Sora… Sora did dare not move or say a word. However, Goofy’s shield seemed to switch off and he was trying to cram as much in as he could naturally. However, it wasn’t long before his shield came back on and he was as psychotic as ever. Donald just stood there all the time, looking like he could hit Sora with a baseball bat.

      Goofy seemed to now be giving the ultimate speech of sheer terror and Donald now looked so violent like he was ready to pounce. I even felt Riku’s energy of sheer terror from afar, being worried sick about his dreamer. The speech did it; as Donald and Goofy remained on the hill to bar Sora; the rest of the possessed characters, including Kairi, got violent with each other. The dream camera even ended up doing a close up on the Pirates of the Caribbean group who were punching each other in the face while laughing in their faces like drunkards. I had seen enough and I figured it was time to head back to the group at the great tree before something would indeed happen to me too.

      As I quickly but quietly slipped away, I started off with a little dash and propelled myself into the air. I gained the best feeling inside me as I was to fly across the forest to return ‘home’, this energy of sheer joy and excitement to see my Kingdom Hearts family again. Flying felt so much fun as I went up and down and then straight forward, but making a slight left curve to steer towards the great tree, and now this triumphant sounding music was playing as I continued towards the great tree.

      Now as I was flying straight again, as soon as I caught sight of the great tree, Aqua and Terra smiled and started waving at me. However, Riku seemed to have his back turned and was still doing something with Ventus. Terra took a quick second to tap Riku on the back and had a look like ‘told you she’d make it’. Riku turned around quickly in a flustered manner and had the most surprised look on his face, like he was gasping in astonishment, as he then smiled and waved to welcome me back along with Terra and Aqua. While I was still at full speed, just before I entered under the shade of the tree; the dream ended and I woke up.

      I also ended up discussing this dream, so I'm also going to share here what I said about it on my Tumblr account:

      I’ve treated Kingdom Hearts differently compared to the past video game worlds I’ve incorporated in my dreams. Because Kingdom Hearts is such a large group and they all seem to be ‘friends’ with each other, I felt bad about using only Riku and therefore perhaps taking him away from the rest of them; so I’ve devised a 3 Level system in which the whole KH group can contribute. As Riku is my dream guide; he’s the only one on Level 3. Those that are not dream guides but I think still have a strong competence are on Level 2; they are Aqua, Terra, Roxas and Sora; they can act as substitutes if my dreams were to impair Riku in any way. The rest are on Level 1 which are those who are... Casual players; they are Kairi, Axel, Xion, Ventus and Namine. For those shocked about Kairi; I MAY promote her to Level 2 depending on how she performs IRL in Melody of Memory. It’s funny because I think the Level system was really demonstrated in Dream No. 676, but I’ll get to that recap eventually.

      So, since Riku was maintaining significant weakness as a dream guide; I decided to write a letter to Aqua and Terra in my IRL task journal, asking them to ‘speak to him’ about some points I as a dreamer wanted to address. I wrote to Terra because he’s Riku’s predecessor in their world; and then I included Aqua because I creatively thought ‘what if Terra gets another spell of darkness or some kind of rage?’. It was amazing to actually see results, but I was not expecting Dream No. 676.

      I’ll give the actual full dream recap in another post, but here’s some discussion on it. In Dream No. 676, Riku, Terra and Aqua appeared to me (after the first scene was about Sora rather than me). Ventus was also there, but he seemed to be ‘hiding’ behind Terra and Aqua like a kid; so that there emphasises my Subconscious’ (SubC’s) assertion that I had put Ventus on Level 1; whereas Terra and Aqua’s Level 2 was demonstrated by them ‘outlining the mission’ to me; and in this dream, it also seemed that they were teaching Riku about being a dream guide. In-fact it felt like the Wayfinder Trio were the main ones featured but Riku was brought along as that link between me and them.

      In a sub-scene, while I was gone; Aqua and Terra were sitting at the side on a stump and were talking with each other. Then there was Riku and Ventus at a table; Ventus had a bowl of porridge and Riku was spoon-feeding it to him. I feel like Aqua and Terra had asked Ventus to be a ‘practise dummy’ for Riku and Ventus had agreed. Riku may never spoon-feed me a meal in a subsequent dream, but it was just a metaphor at least of general caring conduct as a ‘dream guide’ in my universe.

      Like Riku still has a way to go to be a fully-fledged dream guide in my universe (he still has to master hugging and carrying), but he tried so damn hard in Dream No. 676. In-fact, Riku was the sole one to have the fear of God in him that I wouldn’t make it back alive (like a parent, he was worried sick for my safety), whereas the energies from Aqua and Terra showed that they were always confident I’d make it back to them safely. In-fact when I was returning, it was Terra that tapped Riku on the back and Riku was absolutely shocked. Ventus just continued to twiddle around at his end of the table. So with our group, it felt like a family of 3 ‘adults’ (Riku, Terra and Aqua) and 2 ‘children’ (me and Ventus).

      I loved the interaction I had with these guys in Dream No. 676, so I decided afterwards to draw us. I’m the one in-between Riku and Terra. My outfit is consistent; I devised this to be my Kingdom Hearts OC outfit; I thought my usual school uniform would not suit, so this is my new get-up. The background is externally sourced from a wallpaper image but this is similar to what the environment was like in the dream. As I said; I’ll put the actual dream recap in a separate post. Don’t hesitate if you want to ask me about any of my ‘universe laws’ and/or my various interactions.

      Congratulations if you made it to the end of this post!!

    15. Dream - Cemetery Plot Panic

      Date of Dream: SAT 27 JUN - 2020



      Dream No. 675 - Cemetery Plot Panic

      A note before reading this dream; it contains a lot of mature themes. If you are not comfortable with the concepts of diarrhoea (para. 1 and 2) and death (para. 3 and 4), then please avoid reading this dream for your sanity. You have been warned.

      I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, I ended up getting a really nasty spell of diarrhoea that lasted constantly for the rest of the scene; which was a while.

      The dream then changed scenes, like it almost a repeat in regards to time but with different events. I went into some sort of old-style cinema complex and there was someone who looked like Xehanort from Kingdom Hearts but spoke in the tone of dark Ansem. He said something about light but I forgot what exactly it was. Though my answer prompted him to ask next if I would accept the darkness. The fact that I said no to this meant that Xehanort clicked his fingers and I ended up in a bathroom with a really bad spell of never ending diarrhoea. However, I sensed a familiar energy and Riku came almost straight away (in his KH3 appearance), gently putting his hands on each of my sides (hips) and the diarrhoea stopped immediately. The next scene was completely different.

      I now seemed to be at a distorted version of a walking track near my house. On the side, there were five large holes which we apparently burial sites, as if this was a small cemetery though not officially listed as one. As I was there, I realised that I had to act quickly as most of the burial plots were already taken, and I was going to order one for me and another one for Riku. A fourth one became taken and I freaked out because there was only one left. However, the man said that Riku and I could be in the same plot, and so I booked it.

      As I walked off, thinking I was successful, Riku suddenly appeared on the track (in his KH3 appearance again) and stopped me. He said that his site would not be accepted with his Kingdom Hearts details because we were in a different world. He said that we had to use his non-Kingdom Hearts name which was Firan. He then also added that we had to provide the people with a contact detail such as his phone number. As I stood having a nervous breakdown, Riku approached the man himself and started talking to him. As a warm energy fell upon me, with the feeling that my final resting place would be with my dream guide, the dream ended.
