Hyu's Adventures

I'm hanging out in Haven with Yuya and Liv, but the dream isn't very vivid and I feel groggy.
We're standing at some table, and I don't really know what's going on. How did I get here again?
I'm not feeling adventurous at all, which is weird.

Yuya notices this and approaches me.
I feel uneasy and nervous as she is standing very close to me.

She gives me a kiss on my cheek.
Suddenly, I feel the urge to breathe, as if I had forgotten to do so for the past few minutes.
As I breathe in, I get a massive shock of vividness and awareness.
Colors become vibrant and burn into my eyes. I start to hear what is going on around me.
It feels like every nerve in my body just turned on, I can feel everything!
As if I was in a coma, and somebody just woke me up.
I knew I was in Haven, I knew I was with Yuya and Liv, but it is only know that I truly realize what this means.
I've experienced this sensation a few times, but it remains as impressive as the first time.

"Holy shit!"
"Indeed."

Yuya laughs.
I look at my hands, I can feel every single tiny hair on my hand and fingers, as the wind gently brushes through them.
I quickly investigate my surroundings because I'm hearing music.
The 3 of us are standing at a table with different drinks on it. There are other tables with other people as well, it appears that we're at some kind of party or celebration.
There's a band playing many different string instruments, so that's where the music is coming from.
I really like the music, it's mostly cinematic music, very dramatic, but also full of energy and very pleasant.

Yuya hands both Liv and me drinks, they look like shots.
Liv doesn't seem to trust her drink, she's investigating it carefully.
Yuya and I pour ours down. It burns a bit in my throat, the drinks are very strong.
But they're very good. Liv finally drinks a shot as well and seems quite surprised.

"What wonderful liquid is this?"

Yuya and I have to laugh, and we continue having a good time and having drinks. Liv is such an innocent girl.
I clearly feel that I'm getting drunk, and I do so faster than I should.
After just 3 shots I can already clearly feel the effect, but the dream remains extremely vivid.

"Yuya... how come dreams feel more real than waking life?"

She smiles.

"In waking life, it feels like I'm on autopilot the whole time. I do not see the beauty of my everyday life, everything seems boring and normal even though it really isn't."
"Why does it feel like I'm asleep in waking life and awake in my dreams... awake right now?"

After some thinking Yuya replies.

"In waking life, you are busy thinking about a million things at the same time."
"You might not realize most of what's going on, but you subconscious continuously tries to solve all the problems of your life."
"There is simply not enough room to think about your surroundings the way you do right now."

As always, Yuya's explanation makes a lot of sense, but I still feel like I'm missing something.

"Well... I simplified it quite a bit... it is quite complex, I don't know how to put it in words..."

She puts her drink down and puts her hands around my neck. She then presses her forehead against mine an closes her eyes.
Our thoughts merge for a second and I catch a glimpse of the proper explanation.
But I can't understand it, it feels like it goes beyond the limits of my imagination.
I do understand the conclusion though, and I feel like it makes more sense now.

As Yuya opens her eyes I get lost in their beauty.
I'll never get used to such beauty, to such infinite detail.
Usually, I'd start feeling insecure and look away, because I know I'm streaming my thoughts towards Yuya, and she'll immediately realize that I'm thinking about how beautiful she is.
But I'm drunk, and I keep looking for a bit as she smiles...

"I feel funny!"

Both of us look back at Liv, she seems to have had quite a few shots while we were distracted.

"Liv, are you drunk?"
"Huh? I don't know."
"Have you never had any alcohol?"
"Uuuuuh, I don't think so?"

You can tell by the way she moves that she's really drunk.
I have trouble avoiding to laugh out loud, but I got a funny idea.

"Liv, tell us a funny story!"

Yuya is about to crack up.

"I'm way too insecure to tell you anything shameful!!!"

But she continues anyways.

"So... you know how I seduce people in their dreams to leech some of their energy?"
"Well... see, when a succubus seduces someone, she awakens the natural sexual urges within that person, but blocks out the thought of having sex..."
"This way you get lost in a state where you're extremely aroused, but you won't do anything..."
"But err... apparently not everyone is... interested in the same things?"
"There was this guy, about a year ago... he casually started to get his dick out... I thought I had forgotten to block his sex thoughts at first... but I didn't!"
"He proceeded to try to FUCKING PEE ON ME. I mean, can you believe this shit?"
"What is wrong with people???"

This is too much.
Yuya and I burst out laughing. We both have to hold on to the table to avoid falling to the ground.
Liv, the shy succubus, that fact alone is funny enough as it is, but hearing her tell this story because she's drunk, it's just too funny.
All three of us can't stop laughing... I can feel the dream fade away, but I can't stop.

non dream - lucid - non lucid

I'm on Teraluna with Yuya and Liv.
Liv is here for the first time.
The gates would usually prevent any demons from getting into the city, but they let her through because
she has no dark thoughts.

Even though everyone is super nice to her she's still extremely shy and clearly feels out of place.
But she's happy to be here.
We're sitting at the table in front of Yuya's place talking about all kinds of things.
There's a bowl with sweets on the table, and I keep sneaking stuff from it because everything is so delicious.
Lemon marzipan surrounded by black chocolate, yum!

During the conversation I notice that something is on Liv's mind.
There's something bothering her, she wants to ask something, but she's too shy.
I offer her a cookie from the bowl.
Yuya realizes that there's quite a bit of stuff missing from it.

"Hyu...?"
"Yeeeees?"

I chuckle as she throws something at me. (I think it was a hairpin)
Liv realizes what's going on and laughs out loud.
There we go, loose some of that shyness.

"So Liv, what is it you want to ask?"

She turns red.
It takes some time to actually convince her to tell me.
She finally ends up explaining that she is going to a ball.
She has to for some reason, and her sisters will be there.
But she's very uncomfortable going there, because it is common for succubi to seduce someone
rich or powerful to go with them. She doesn't want to do that though.
She's known for being shy, which is a bit ridiculous since she's a succubus, and she'll be laughed at if she comes without a 'date'.

"I don't really see where the problem is."
"But... I don't..."
"You could just ask someone to go with you, you know."
"Nobody would go with me..."

She's not biting, but I can clearly see it in her face.
She wants to ask me to go with her.

"You could ask me for example."
"But..."
"..."
"Would you.... go with me? ..."
"Yes, absolutely."

Yuya says: "See, that wasn't so hard, was it?"

"So, where is this ball anyways?"
"..."
"... it's in hell."

Wait, what?
I look at Yuya. She doesn't seem concerned, so it probably isn't as dangerous as it sounds.
Whatever, it'll be an adventure, it's probably going to be awesome...


... Liv and I are standing in line... to get into hell I suppose?
I'm wearing a red and white kimono, as is tradition for dragons according to Yuya.
Liv's dress reminds me a bit of a prom dress, it's cute, it looks nice on her.
We're at the entrance... it says "Club Hades".
I ask Liv:

"Seriously? Hades?"
"You know him?"
"No... he... what?"
"The club is named after it's owner, he's called Hades."

I find it funny, but Liv obviously doesn't know about Greek mythology.

The inside of the club is actually quite awesome. It's in a huge cave, and the place is lit up by pools and fountains of lava.
I hide my energy at first, because there's a lot of demons here, but that quickly attracts the attention of some predators.
Some bird-like creature looks at me with an appetite.
I quickly change my aura and emit some energy to show that I'm a dragon.
The creature quickly looks away.
I decide to act confident, as if I have nothing to fear here.

There are all sorts of creatures here, most of them look humanoid.
Not all of them appear to be demons though, some clearly aren't and some may very well be human.
During a conversation Liv explains that this club is some sort of a neutral zone.
Hades is insanely powerful, nobody would dare to cause any kind of trouble here.

At some point she introduces my to her sisters.
There's 3 of them, they're all older than Liv, and clearly not as nice as she is.
They seduced some men to come with them. The men aren't even aware where they are, they're under complete mind control.
Her sisters are extremely surprised that she's with a dragon.
The oldest of them asks how she managed to seduce a dragon.
I say in a serious and dark voice:

"She didn't have to."

That's gonna leave an impression.

...I'm a bit surprised that nobody's causing trouble, some creatures look quite aggressive.
I suppose this place is quite safe indeed.
Liv is still very shy, but she doesn't show it to the other guests.
I ask her for a dance. She's quite happy and we go to the dance floor...

Couldn't write this one down after waking up because I had to attend an exam. :/



I'm somewhere with Yuya, following a path crossing a forest, I forgot why.
I feel a familiar presence hiding behind a tree, it's the succubus.
She's following me out of curiosity, but she's quite scared.

I stop.
"Hello, young one."

She's a bit ashamed that she got caught following us and comes out, undisguised.
Yuya doesn't seem concerned that a demon is approaching us, she just says hi.
This gives me the final confirmation that this succubus is not evil.

I make the introductions and ask the succubus what her name is.
She says she's called Liv and she seems extremely relieved that we're friendly.
She joins us with what it was we were doing.

I'm curios as to why she wants to hang out with us, so I direct the conversation that way.
It becomes clear that Liv doesn't seem to have many friends.
She's very friendly and respectful though, and Yuya does seem to enjoy her company as much as I do.

At the end of the dream, after accomplishing some sort of thing, I touch Liv's face with my left hand and
transfer a small amount of energy to her.
It's a small amount for me, but a huge amount for her.
She's very grateful that she doesn't have to 'leech' for a few weeks and asks if she can hang out with us more often.
Yuya tells her that she's welcome to join us on our adventures, but notes that they can be dangerous at times.
Liv is very excited, she can't wait to hang out with us again.

non dream - lucid - non lucid

It's late in the evening, I'm super tired because I studied for an exam all day long.
I can't think clearly anymore and take a break listening to "Two steps from hell".
I lean my chair all the way back and close my eyes for a few minutes.
I'm just really tired, I don't even think much.
At some point I notice HI. I didn't even try to WILD, but I certainly didn't move either.
I decide to just keep going, like I'm too tired to open my eyes and do something else.
I don't try to visualize anything, I don't try to go somewhere specific...

I feel odd, like I'm not alone in the room. I assume this is related to SP.
But then I hear someone moving VERY close to me and it scares me quite a bit, even though I know I don't need to worry.
Still, I'm uncomfortable and I open my eyes.
Everything is wrong. My pc monitor is filled with void and the corners glow in a purple color.
Even though everything on my desk seems to be where I left it, I cannot see the walls of my room.
My desk is properly lit, but the further things are away from it, the darker they are.
And then I see her, right to my left, a girl from e previous dream: Encounter with a Succubus
She's wearing some sort of corset and long gloves, it's a rather seductive outfit.

I do not feel any immediate danger so I decide to wait and see what happens.
She pushes my chair back a bit and sits on my lap facing me.
Her face is very close.
She starts inhaling my energy. It moves slowly from my mouth into hers.
I notice that the amount energy she's absorbing is ridiculously small though.
It isn't dangerous whatsoever, she isn't hurting me.
However, I do want answers.

I put my arms around her, so she can't get away, and interrupt the energy transfer.

"We meet again, young succubus."

She's scared, but she doesn't try to escape.
Her disguise vanishes. I can see small wings on her back now, and some sort of horns on her head. (Not the pointy devil's kind, more like animal horns)
She's young, I'm guessing about 16-18, assuming she ages the same way we do.

"I don't understand... why do you know?"
"Because I'm a dreamer, obviously."
"... but... even dreamers don't know..."
"That you are a succubus?"
"That I am a succubi, that I charm them... everything..."

So I was right, she is a succubus... but what exactly is a succubus?
I don't think she's actually trying to hurt me, so I keep my voice calm and try to keep the conversation going.

"Why do you steal my energy, young one?"
"What do you mean? ... I need it ..."
"What for?"
"To live? ... I don't understand... why would you not know..."

She's about to cry, I believe she thinks that I'm about to kill her.
I look deep into her eyes, feeling her thoughts to see if she's telling the truth.

"Calm down. Explain to me what exactly it is you're doing.
You steal energy because you need it to survive, but you seem to take very little?"
"Of course!!! If I took more I could hurt people."
"Wait... what? I thought you were a demon?"
"That doesn't mean that I'm a bad person!
Not all demons are evil!"
"Oh..."

She's being absolutely honest, I can feel it.
I can sense that she's never hurt anyone.
She cannot regenerate her own energy the way I do, so she needs to take small amounts from other people.
The amount of energy she absorbs could never hurt anyone.
I let her go.
She is very surprised.

"You're telling the truth, so I shall let you go.
Next time instead of sneaking up on me, just ask alright?"
"Yes... sorry... thank you..."

non dream - lucid - non lucid

I’m at a hotel, with my parents. (The hotel has some resemblance to a place an Italy and to a cruise ship I’ve been on in waking life. Most of it is random though)
A few things happen… there’s a discussion with my parents… (the dream skips a few minutes ahead)
I’m following my parents downstairs. The stairs have an odd flow to them. We seem to be leaving the hotel.
I notice my parents are dressed for a fancy dinner, but I’m wearing shorts and a t-shirt. I ask my dad if I should be dressed. He says yes.
I’m annoyed that no one told me and I decide to go back to my hotel room to get changed.
On my way back I end up in some kind of a 2 floor high lobby room connecting different hotel rooms together. The structure makes little sense.
I want to go to the second floor, but the only way up is to jump onto some kind of indoor sunshade which is attached to the edge of the second floor.
I try to pull myself up but I notice the thing can barely carry my weight, I risk breaking it. Some people enter the lobby.
I feel like I look stupid and could get into trouble for breaking the thing, so I let go and push it back in its original position.

I'm confused, and look around for another way to get to the second floor.
There's a small bench in the middle of the room I'm currently in, and a young women is sitting there reading a book.
I want to ask her how to get to the second floor and approach her.
One of the hotel rooms on the current floor opens, 2 girls run our, and they leave the door wide open.
Why did they do that?
The girl from the bench gets up and looks at me: "follow me"
She starts approaching the room where the door was left open.

I follow her into the room, but I'm not really sure why.
She tells me to sit on the bed. I suddenly become aroused, but it feels weird. Something is wrong but I can't tell what it is.
She sits on my lap, just looking at me and smiling. I try to focus on figuring out what's currently happening, and suddenly I can think clearly.

I can feel my energy being drained, she's absorbing it, and judging by the look on her face, she's enjoying it quite a bit. A succubus?
I'm not amused. I send a sudden surge of energy her way. She can't absorb it this fast and jumps up in pain.
I stand up and get into a defensive position.

"How the hell did you do that? Nobody can do this, there is no way you know!"

I think I understand what she's saying. She's never met a lucid dreamer, she doesn't know that you can resist when you're lucid.
Feeling superior, I decide to play mind games with her.

"You're quite young, aren't you?"

"Screw you! This is impossible!"

I act amused and laugh at her, like she's a little child not fully understanding how the world she's in is working.
Obviously I have nearly no idea myself, but I don't show this to her.
She's pissed, and I can clearly feel her projecting thoughts my way.
She's trying to make me fall in love with her, and let her do whatever she wants to me.
The feeling is strong, she grows more attractive every second.

But I know what's happening, and manage to focus.

"Kiss me!" she says, absolutely certain that she managed to control me.

"No."

She jumps back furious and confused.
I laugh at her again.

"You better not try this again in the future young one."

She's scared. She draws a portal, gives me another quick look and flees through it.
I contemplate following her for a second but the portal closes behind her.

The dream fades away...
