In Medias Res

I woke from a non-lucid dream, and tried to go back to sleep. I did so and became instantly lucid. I examined my hands, rubbed them together and said, "Stabilize lucidity NOW!" and "I am lucid, the world is vivid." I didn't yell it (until later). It seemed to work. I walked out of the room I was in, along the corridors, and realized a horde of zombies was coming at me from across the hallway. With a sweep of my hand I said, "Make this place a nice place." Everything turned nice - the grey/crimson-ish walls became green and pink, even though the zombie-turned-nice-people were still hunched and going "Groar".

I turned and walked away, looked at my hands and YELLED, "Stabilize lucidity now - I mean NOW!" I remember worrying if I was actually yelling this while sleeping, and if my parents could hear me. I remember someone in a red shirt, then the dream began to close in. I tried to see my hands, but it was darkness coming from the top and bottom of my vision. I lost lucidity but I struggled and it came back. I went down to the lobby of the hotel. Sex with Syn in mind, I told myself to go to a beach, and fell backwards while imagining a beach dreamscape. But when I hit the floor, a blue error screen with the black pixelated words "The Rev wants you to end this" appeared. I got up, and the black hotel lobby guy also told me it was time to end.

I was shocked and ran out of the lobby into a skiing place. I ran around the hills yelling, "The Rev! Where are you?" Then I saw, at the front gate, my classmates and strangers surrounding the squirrel in a carriage that I knew was the Rev's reincarnation (from the previous dream). A stranger said, "Don't move!", but I think we let him escape.

Later I walked up a hill to an exit of the ski park with Victor and a Nathan-like guide, telling them about what had happened. On my way I saw a suspicious-looking guy in a red shirt whose head looked like it was cut out of cardboard. Nathan said that on his way here there was also someone who told him he should "start over". He shrugged.

Then I had a false awakening in the hotel room where the dream had started. I remember picking up my dream journal and seeing it shared with my math notebook. There were so many interjected math notes between the dreams that I tried to find a new DJ. Then I actually woke up and realized I didn't share my DJ with any other notebook.

Not dream Non lucid Lucid
4:30-10:00 PM
While trying to do a MILD during a nap, I successfully slipped from half-wake to dream state. First accidental WILD. I was relaxing and had a hypnagogic hallucination that I was hovering just above my bed. Then a dream scene enveloped me and I was instantly lucid without dreamsigns/RC's. Little to no rush. I was in a small dark beige-colored room with a door in front of me. It lasted 5 seconds before I turned to face another wall and slowly realized the wall was my bedroom ceiling.

Reading web news about Syn making a choice to leave A7X. "My Quit or ??? Departure". Talking about them moving base between 2 cities and Syn's difficulty with that.

1:00-4:00 AM
I learned about stabilization on DVChat and vowed to try it in my next LD.

4:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Longest LD I've ever had to date - felt like around an hour. I don't remember much of the plot, only fragments of the whole dream, which I'm sure is 1 dream. I got lucid in a walled area, but forgot how (no RC's or dreamsigns, and no rush.) When I became lucid, I realized I had to stabilize and maniacally touched the walls and floor. It worked! The dream felt stable. I spun around to make sure the dream lasted and it did. (I went on touching floors and walls in the rest of the dream to prolong it. At one point I remember yelling "Stabiliiiiize~~!!" when I reached an indoor room and started pawing the walls.) I left the building into an open field and started successfully doing control. I made the ground turquoise and the clouds red. (Though I thought "sky: red", only the clouds turned red.) I did many more color changes that I can't remember. Most amazingly though was telekinesis. I could make small objects rise with mind command, and with what I now call a "finger flick" (a flick of my left index), make them fly in the pointed direction.
Next bits are bits and pieces of what I did in the dream in no plot order.
- I succeeded summoning Gates! I was in a computer lab of some sort and used passive control. I believed and knew he was sitting in the row behind me. I turned and there he was. (In the attire of the purple lazer pic) I went to him and tried to think of a good opening line, and told him I was looking for someone named Synyster Gates. Crafty bitch pointed to a midget bent old lady and said she was Synyster Gates. I had no idea what to say. He took me to her and we were brought out of the room. I later brought her back but Gates was gone.

-A game show where people had some cards in front of them. I turned invisible and used telekinesis and the finger flick to chuck the cards around.

-I teleported myself backstage to an A7X concert.

-I showed off telekinesis/finger-flick skills to Wong Lee and others. Victoria wasn't too impressed. I remember walking on an expansive field and walking onto a construction site on a gigantic red squishy tomato where Ivy was working. I left and worried if I should wake up, since I thought I was asleep at school during lunchtime and was probably missing some classes. But I thought it would be a waste, so I spun and continued. Victoria came over and I told her I was in a dream and showed telekinesis (failed on large objects, succeeded on small). She asked me about the major project and I said "Later" but felt bad for procrastinating. I went into an apartment bottom with her and used the finger flick to make a fan on the ceiling spin so quickly it lighted up. Lotty was there too and warned that it was releasing sparks. While exclaiming, I got hit with the falling sparks - it stung.

-A domestic helper I didn't recognize talked about a new bra. My mom told me she'd bought a new pushup. I used passive control to make my boobs bigger and wore the new grey pushup.

Wake.

Notes:
Longest, best-control LD to date (b/c of stabilization techniques). First attempt at and success at stabilization.
Dream accomplishments: Stabilization, significant passive control, summoning person, large-scale color change, telekinesis.
