      Sounds like the dreamer was not lucid enough. To understand where you were coming from. Hope you took a nice and peaceful aproch. Or you could have caused a nightmare for them.
      You really need to be carfull when try to enter another's dream. We should try to not become the monster. We want to be apart and f the solution. Not the problem. Not saying you did such thing I just wonder if you kept you cool from thier perspective when you got irritated. Even your own emotions will effect the other person's dream. I wonder if you were really entered another's dream. This is all in theory, if so. I admire you awareness abilities.

      Basically a hub world, yeah. The desert look might have to do with a sense of emptiness - like it's less a place and more sort of a blank slate where dreams happen. Or maybe it's just because the type of dreams happening there didn't seem particularly pleasant, that might explain the barren wasteland appearance.

      They come out of the tunnels into a place that I think of as a certain type of dream, a sort of desert-like place, barren brown rock, with various dreamers here and there like landmarks.
      So... like a sort of hub world where shared dreaming might take place. And also the place is persistent to the point you think of it as a certain type of dream whenever you arrive there. Interesting. I wonder why the place is a barren wasteland of brown rock with landmarks and dreamers/dream characters scattered about.

      Explain to me the working of your color code. Is lighter blue more lucid fading to black that is nonlucid?

      Love love love DA! And "The Fade" is a great way to conceptualize the dream state.

      Heeeee, cool dream man. Your description is kind of short but it seems pretty epic, I like it!

      Then I'm looking forward to seeing how narrating works out for you.

      I admit I haven't gotten very far with it yet... the first step is remembering to do the experiment. Somehow there are tasks that I can easily remember in my LDs, and others that I almost never think to do. My initial ideas were to take a character that I've already RPed extensively in waking life and see what happens when I try to do so in the dream. The hard part is that the surroundings might not be conducive to getting in character--I've not yet mastered the art of altering my whole environment, and for some reason I'm terrible at summoning specific DCs. But maybe your "narrative" technique could even be useful here... such as narrating things about the character I'm trying to transform into.

      That's interesting! How are you working on that? The person I am when lucid is sort of its own beast, not exactly my IRL self but not something I deliberately created either - like you said, switching non-lucid personas is easy, but I'm not sure how I'd go about altering a lucid persona deliberately.

      "Accidentally" as in, I never made a deliberate plan that my dream persona would be a vampire, but I was thinking about some characters and plots along those lines when I first started LDing in earnest, it's been a recurring theme ever since. As an RPer I'm really interested in the possibilities of playing another character in a dream while lucid -- I often dream non-lucidly that I'm another person entirely, but my LD persona is still mostly modeled on my waking self. Something to work on!

      Accidentally a vampire?

      Yeah, I kind of default to vampire, I blame my terrible taste in television - but I actually wasn't one in these scenes, just an unspecified looks-human-but-isn't immortal thing.

      This "narrative versus command" approach sounds really promising, I'll have to give it a try!

      Is your dream character a vampire too? Mine came about sort of accidentally.

      I'm also aware that this is the moment when he started to doubt whether he wanted to leave at all - so of course his immediate reaction was to become even more determined to get out as soon as possible.
      I love it when that happens. You have such entertaining dreams; you have moments like these sprinkled all through your DJ. When finding one it feels like discovering an Easter egg filled with chocolate. It's enjoyable, ya know?

      Fictional characters. Those last scenes were based on a movie, Lost Boys - really, really loosely based in that second scene. And yeah, the flying was great - really fantastic views.

      Who are David, Michael and Star?

      The part about the flying carpet sounds like a lot of fun!
