T.O.T.M. (Task of the Mouth) Bonus Task

Note: This is a collection of dreams of the past one or two weeks, and I didn't know when they happened because I didn't have time to write in my real DJ or this one. However, Dreams #4 and #5 happened today with true clarity.

~ Dream #1 ~
40% Lucidity

Approximate Real Life Time: About one minute

Approximate Dream Time: Around thirty minutes

Backstory:
I played Wizard101 when I was little, and I guess one of my favorite Greek Mythology houses in that game appeared as the setting.

Story:
I used a portal to get into Pandora's room, and she was there. (I was on the ceiling) Well, it's going to be awkward taking it from her. Oh well. I took it from her using the force even though she said, "No!" a few times. I took it from her, and went back through my portal into that beautiful setting I described in the Backstory section. Then I placed down a small Greek Column Pedestal, and carefully placed Pandora's box on it. I got a new net from out of nowhere, and I decided that it would be useful to catch evil spirits that come out of the box. I placed the net on top of the box, and I opened the box using the force. A lot of evil spirits came out, and all of them were caught in the net, I sealed the net, so nothing can ever come out of it. The last item in the box was hope, and I let it go free into the world.

Dream End.

Story:
I decided to go directly finish my task. I found the Nemean Lion and it was very fierce and mean when I met it. I decided to make it into my pet. So I shrank the huge lion into a cute, adorable cat. I also asked Aphrodite to make it as cute as possible, and as lovable as possible. I went to a kitty cat contest, and all the other ugly cats lost against mine. We won first place, but I don't think I fixed the deadly, golden fur problem, yet. Anyways we won, and we both became good friends.

Approximate Dream Time: About a few years

Backstory:
No Backstory Needed.

Story:
I was Paris, but here's a twist: I'm the Paris of the modern world. I didn't live in the old times, and there were still Greek Gods (i.e. like the Percy Jackson Series). I had to choose one of the Greek Gods for being the fairest, and I chose Athena because I wanted to be a smart person. In the dream, I went to Harvard, and many places. I was smart and I became what I wanted to be, and I know more than the people around me. It was a thrilling experience. I didn't get anymore detail other than that.

Dream End.

Approximate Real Life Time: About ten minutes

Approximate Dream Time: Around a few hours

Backstory:
Dream Background: I was on a battleship / ship training for element controlling.
Well, this one happened today, so I know it's a WILD, because I just woke up a few minutes ago naturally.

Story:
I dreamt of 4 sections that each contained the elements in this order from left to right: Earth, Air, Water, and Fire. These four sections are for me to perform the Task of the Month. The Earth section contained stones, leaves, tree parts, and many objects that will help me build a mountain. The Air Section had a huge boulder for me to lift into the air, and fly it to a chalked circle target. The Water Section had a huge lake, which I had to drain. On the Fire Section, there was a huge, large pine forest that I had to burn. All the sections had dark, grey clouds over them, except the Air Section which had white mist like if it were on a tall mountain. I started from the left then to the right.

I started the Task of the Month. On the Earth Section, I used the power of the Earth to lift all those boulders, leaves, trees, and rocks to make a mountain. After all of the materials came together, there it was, a huge mountain. On the Air Section, I lifted the huge boulder using air, and placed it on the designated spot for where it was supposed to be. For the water section, I saw the lake and I spun it into the sky. The water drained through slinky-like shape into the sky. Moments later, the entire section started to rain. I was onto the Fire Section. I started a fire in the center of the section, and moments later, almost the whole section was on fire. Since I was finished with the Task of the Month, I decided to explore the dream world a little bit.

I walked through a dark, metallic corridor like those in a ship. Each door had those circle-ly, wheel handles that are required to open doors. At the end of the corridor, I can only go right, and I noticed some light towards the end. I turned right, and a door was open. Inside was a man, and it seemed like he was in an apartment building because in the window, I can see what I see when I look out of my real life apartment window. It was night, and I think everyone was asleep except for the man and me. He talked to me about some stuff (I lost some lucidity during this part). Later, I walked out of his door, and there was another side of the corridor that led to the outside of ship towards the right of the door. I asked him what's outside of the ship. And he said it was a surprise.

As I reached the end of the corridor, he closed his door, and I noticed the rainy, cloudy weather outside. I also saw a Pegasus outside the door, and I climbed on it, and asked it to take me to Mount Olympus! Except, we were in the middle of the ocean. I opened a portal to Mount Olympus instead. When Pegasus landed through the portal and we reached Zeus's Throne, we see his Master Lightning Bolt just lying there for free. So, I decided I'll get it and tip-toe away. I climbed onto Pegasus again and we flew all the way to a far away Island. I relaxed on this island, and I have finally escaped from Zeus without him knowing, I was in a 5-star hotel's beach asking a servant for a tropical drink for me and Pegasus. We both drank it and felt accomplished. The dream soon faded away.

Dream End.

~ Dream #5 ~
100% Lucidity

Approximate Real Life Time: Around ten minutes

Approximate Dream Time: Around a few hours

Backstory:
Dream Background: I started this adventure thing on doodles last year, and I thought it would make a good lucid dream adventure. I also made a ranking system for it. I would start at Level 1, and every level would have 15 more experience points than the last level up requirement. A Level 1 Player would need 5 EXP (Experience Points) to become Level 2. A Level 2 Player would need 15 EXP (5 + 10) to be Level 3. There is a certain map for the world, and I was in the Midnight City. It was at night, and the city is mainly filled with blue, glowing skyscrapers.

Story:
I was on a bridge from the Fields (an urban town with large fields next to Midnight City) to Midnight City, and after I crossed it, I met a man whom ran really quickly. I seemed like he was going to rob me. I decided to battle him. He attacked me, and I attacked him. We both had swords, but he had a gun, too. He used his sword when he was near me and used his gun when he was further away. Eventually, we battled at the Bridge. I jumped into the water under the bridge, and he came after me. I used my water bending powers, and drained the whole lake to push him into the sky while he was falling.. Now, he was is the dark grey, and nearly black clouds. He probably is going to die from fall damage rather than my water pressure. I decided to go under the bridge, so he will have no chance of landing on me. He fell on the bridge, and nearly cracked it. Later, it started to rain. I think it was because of the whole lake of water still in the sky. This dream also slowly faded away.

Dream End.

Date: 16 May

Wbtb

I fall asleep and have a brief non-ld where I am with family members in this unfamiliar house. It's dark in the room and I am trying to fall asleep but they keep on talking so loud. At some point everybody leaves and I find myself in a large movie room with big screen TV and loud bass systems. I think to myself that I find it really weird people are so obsessed with these things. A large TV, so what? Now, it would be much cooler if actually you were making this whole TV into existence, if you were the cause of all the music - ie. if you are dreaming all this. Then this will give a whole new meaning to the experience. I take a moment to imagine how it would feel.

Memory gap. I end up in another room where I feel my awareness come into focus and I realize that I made it to the dream. My mom is also here for a bit. I remember a few goals and also the advanced task of doing an in-dream wild and briefly consider trying it. However, this is not among the goals I reviewed during the wbtb and now I can't remember (also irl at the time of journalling) whether this is still the current month's task or already last month's. I decide I don't want to end up doing an old task and drop it altogether. There is a large earth globe in the completely empty now narrow room and I do a mix of telekinesis and wind blowing it around wondering if that would count towards air bending. After I have enough fun with levitating it around, I recall the other basic task - become friends with the monster under your bed.

I move forward and cautiously open the door to the next room, hoping this will work to reveal something handy. It opens into a dark room, which I disregard and continue forward. There is a bed just ahead of me and I lean down and look to see what's below. There is a ton of junk piled up. While I try to think of a monster being there I get a flash of disappearing transparent eyes. I decide to stare in the stuff below in the hopes that something will show up. After a while, I begin to see a movement under some rags and follow it. It stops and then starts at another place. I dig a bit to finally find the monster - a grey mouse! The little beast is so hyperactive it is hard to keep it in one place and as I try to hold it and make friends it even bites me! I think about the task again taking mental notes of what is going on. Ok, it has to calm down so I start caressing it. I do so for a bit until it finally calms down, I make another mental note about this and conclude that we are now friends.

The dream seems to end but it's actually an FA. I find myself journalling a page and a half worth of dreams with a lot of details and also noting my goals for the next dream. The tablet then malfunctions and keeps giving me a gaming radar with the bad guys as red dots coming near. I'm getting really confused about this since I think I have solved all my problems for the moment. It then switches to a cool 16 bit game with characters unknown to me. I decide to play it for a bit and it actually works like a normal game - very complex and thoroughly thought out. Yet I can't comprehend how this game self installed on my tablet. Why do I have this game? And then it hits me! This is an FA and I just wrote a ton of dreams for nothing. But the game - well that was pretty awesome, I think to myself, I played quite a bit of a dream game. I'm super amazed at this. The dream soon ends.

Vivd, Non-Lucid Dream ::: The Everlasting Endless Loop

90% Vividness

Approximate Real Life Time: Around ten to twenty minutes

Approximate Dream Time: A few decades to few millennia

Backstory:
This was the last dream I had for the day. I swear it was the best non-lucid dream I ever had. This is also the first time I also saw IRL (in real life) people in my dreams. This the first looping dream that I also had. Okay, time for the story...wait. I am also a woman in this dream, but IRL I'm a guy. Okay, now continue

Story:
I lived in an endless simulation, and at the end of the simulation, there would be a laptop computer that appears that allows you to log off from the endless looping simulation to an afterlife and leave the simulation loop. However, if an AI gets there before you, the simulation resets and the whole story loops around again. You cannot leave the simulation: if you are already dead in the simulation, if you are about to die in the simulation, or severely wounded. I would always make the same choice, and without knowing it, I would never be able to log off.

My original choices started with me lying with a boy whom is the only human other than me. He then became my boyfriend later on the simulation. I lived on happily without knowing about the computer, and anything else. One day, there was something different about him. He told me about logging off, which he never did in the other simulations on this day. He became sentient. During the simulation loops, we are the most sentient during the end of the loop, and least sentient during the beginning,

We treated every loop like it was life, and never thought about logging off. As we became more sentient on this one loop, we agreed to change our decisions to change the outcome of the story. Towards the end of loop, we stood above a green, windy hill while the sun was setting. There it was the log off computer. We knew what it was because of many years of a gut feeling. We agreed to both leave this world. As I was going to log off, we were both killed by an AI NPC (Non-Playable Character) which then went to the computer, and reset the storyline.

As many more loops passed, I tried many new, and different ways to get out of the loop with him, but I couldn't. This time I decided to not lay with him, and not to be his boyfriend in this loop. That was the most horrible loop I have ever experienced without him.

Then it finally happened, it was going to be our last loop. After many decades to millennia of pain and suffering in this world, we can finally go, and the computer already loaded 90%. Then one AI NPC came out of no where, and shot at us. My boyfriend was severely wounded, and then the screen for logging off appeared. "Are you sure you want to log off? I didn't click anything, but my finger was on the touchpad for the laptop. I was going to click "Submit / Yes" but I can't because I would leave him behind. His finger reached out and clicked "Submit / Yes" for me. The screen said, "Loading for transport...", and I looked at him for one last time. He was going to stay here forever, and I won't be able to help him realize anything about this endless loop. I zipped out of the simulation, and server. I zoomed through the whole server room, and boom!

I'm awake.

The first dream had something to do with me and my mom living with these monks in china. Being with them was nice and they lived in this monastery in the woods. They all wore orange robes and they didn't speak much English. They only knew a few basic words.

The dream was very long, but many of the details escape me. I only recall the ending where we decided we should go home, but one day come back to the monastery. I was walking around. I remember looking at the woodland around the monastery and thinking how beautiful it all was. I was thinking about how it would be nice to see something like that in a lucid dream.

I remember one of the monks said he would be happy to drive us to the train station and say goodbye. He drove us in this old white van, and he was a really reckless driver.

-WBTB-

The second dream was absurdly long. It had something to do with me being asked to design a cafeteria building for a college campus then build it. Building it was something akin to Minecraft. I spent what felt like hours putting the structure together.

There was this big party to celebrate the opening of the new building. Edward and Alphonse were there, and ed was eating tons of food and got fat. Then king Bradley showed up and started attacking.

I somehow found myself in the basement of the building I had designed. I had become one of the military characters from FMA and I was trying to escape, but my leg was pinned under a wooden beam. I remember struggling for several minutes trying to get free before someone helped me by lifting the beam up.

I had to disguise myself during the attack by changing into a female and running out of the crowd. From there I was able to get into my car and drive away. I eventually got lost and found myself driving to the top of this hill with a radio station on top. The bad guys had followed me there and captured me.

The entire dream then repeated all the way up to the part where I had to escape. This time I didn't change into a female, I just ran for my car. I drove the same route again but things were different. The hill was covered in rich vegetation and there was no radio station, just a concrete platform.

I became lucid here and decided that if I wanted to get back to my home, I should just teleport home.

"Tesser-home"

I woke up in my bed. I didn't actually expect my teleportation to work- wait a second... Rats.

New Family

I was inside a car and was being driven by a old woman or a older woman to a spot on the road where her children (I don't think they were blood relatives) stayed in hiding. I was now apart of their new family and was told to keep watch of the youngest girl. I thought about how I wouldn't mind taking care of such a cute happy little girl. She actually made me feel at home. But than we were told that we had to leave. We got in a line and were told to take our bicycles with us. I didn't know which to take since I didn't have one but than chose any and began walking. That is when an older somewhat transparent man walked passed me with his bicycle shaking in fear. " Your going to show them your bike? I wouldn't want anyone seeing my bike and taking it away from me." He said in fear and in shock. I acknowledged he was right, also because i was afraid he would go nuts, than told him I would not show them my bike.

We kept walking in the line till we arrived in a building with stair like mazes. I started to notice that some of those with me looked like co workers. One of them mentioned how we needed to find our way to the bottom in order to win the game. I wanted to win so i walked faster down the mini, forming stairs. Got a bit confused/stuck at a point but managed to get down to a big room filled with fluffy items. I think pillows and blankets. Our next task was shouted by the same co worker and it was to find a fluffy cube hidden in a room. I wanted to go inside a room but felt like there would probably be a bad surprise so i decided to not play and watch what the girl known to be a witch of the room would do. I think she went on a bathroom break and that's when a big version of the VA for Finn from Adventure time appeared on a wall in a room.

He started mentioning how he likes unique voices and how a girl in the building was in the unique category. I pretty much figured he was stuck to the wall and observed small cartoon like dogs walking around the room. I felt like they were henchmen working for someone. After that somehow I arrived inside a basement where a man had all his inventions hidden from the world. I got the feeling he was my science teacher though. I walked up to one of his project that had small candy canes and he said" Sorry, the project you gave me sort of failed..." I tried fixing the candy canes and told him " Its okay. Not everyone is meant to be a scientist. Am I right?" He said "yeah" and than i let go of the candy canes.I looked at him than around the place and started getting the feeling that the man had a crush on me.

"I have to go now. Its getting late." I told him but he told me to wait. That's when I picked up this metal pole staff which I thought to be his and twirled it around with both my hands. He still approached me though than his look changed to my father."Ew! Dad!?" I said in shock than ran also grabbing a phone to call his boss who was also mine in the dream. He tried to stop me but i managed to run out. The only thing is that the dream shifted and I ended up inside a car with him and my mom. My mom took the phone from me and made fun of me for calling the boss who was supposedly named Ashley. I shouted for her not to make fun of me and told her what had happened was unacceptable. Than after being inside the car for a bit, I woke up.

Nate

So in this dream I was non lucid in a school i think or somewhere and ended up realizing it was a dream when something i don't remember happened. I think it was a shadow that made me lucid.Anyways my goal was to look for a dream character named Nate. Nate is the name I got from a mini dream episode when i was thinking of the character i wanted to be my DG in the dream. So anyways, I realized that I could call Nate into the dream by shouting his name and hoped he would come around the corner. Someone appeared, he didn't give me the feeling of Nate all that much, but I decided to just go on an adventure with him. "Where do I want to go?..." I thought. Than it hit me. " Lets go to the beach!" I said.

I started thinking of a small portal opening on a wall and went through it. I was being sucked into a shiny water portal that was narrow and apparently long. I was in there for a while than started thinking what if a shark appears. I decided that before that could happen I would float up than land onto sand. I floated up and could see the sand but i was blocked from reaching the ground. I managed to get through it though by pushing a little and thinking about getting through. To my surprise the beach had a little bit of the mountain area to it. There were people around a campfire singing and than I interrupted them by shouting hey. They looked at me confused than i think that's when i was told to leave because they were going to do a contest or something like that.

I annoyed the man a little by saying random stuff. I also forgot to mention the part when i used wind and made a small tornado appear on the island.(Just remembered it now) Than I left to find Nate. I went through another portal through a wall than the dream shifted and I was in my room. I called for Nate again and he appeared. He had medium length wavy black hair,was light skin and had a doctor's coat on.He had brought a pump device into the room and mentioned how he was going to pup me with it on my back. " Wait No!" I told him but he just did it anyways. I let him and than I reappeared on the bed. I Nate was gone so I called him again and he came back with a big needle. "Fine, you can give me a shot but you can give it to me on the bottom of my feet" I said showing him my feet. There was a purple mark on my feet so i thought it would be best if he did it there.

After that he took my hand and started dancing with me."What are you doing?" I asked him. But than I just went with it since I like doing the ballroom dance in dreams. After that he kissed me and I kissed him back thinking "What the heck am i doing kissing Nate?" After that Images started to appear than the scene changed and I was in an abandoned cemented area near an abandoned house. Two little kids ran past me into a part of the house. I got inside and had the feeling this had to deal with my fear of demons. "Nate is not a demon." I said out loud. The little girl laughed and than i followed them to the front of the house. It was a yellow house and was slowly breaking apart. " There are no demons in this dream". I said as i saw hands starting to come out of the house and voices too.

The more i said it though the more things began to fade. The dreams scene changed and i thought I was going to wake up but could still feel myself in the dream. I was now looking at a mall rack filled with hanging necklaces with symbols. They were shiny and green and one sort of looked like Jadegreen's lucid symbol. They were slowly changing though and than small shiny blue glittery boxes appeared on the rack after the necklaces disappeared. I had a FA after looking at them for a while but realized it was a dream. I was staring at a face on the wall as I was trying to open my eyes fully. I was thinking about bringing Nate back but than decided to wake myself up because I was okay with what I had lucid dreamed already and didn't feel like exploring my mind anymore.

I'm going scuba diving with some people from a recent Hawaii retreat and we descend into a library that has been flooded with water. I know that one knowledgeable diver is in the group (Don). As I go down there is a hammerhead shark that comes up to me and puts his mouth on my crossed arms and presses down as if to bite. I stay still and this goes on for a little bit until he leaves. I felt for sure he would bite my entire midsection out! I come to the surface to regroup with my scuba buddies. I ask if anyone knows scuba hand signals and Karen makes some hand motions that are not really signals at all.
------
Then I am in a large building with which fluorescent lights. I think I'm trying to get a threesome going with a blonde girl and my husband, but something keeps interrupting us. I'm semi-lucid, but not quite in this dream. As interruptions pop up I think "If this were a dream this is what I'd do" and then do them. For example a man keeps walking over to talk to me as I'm trying to disrobe this woman and I tell him "There is a woman crying in the hallway over there" and give him eyes that say "she needs your help." He wanders back over saying he can't find her and I specify "She's there, go back and then make a left." I have the woman to myself now and start to touch her only to realize my physical body in bed is moving around. I realize I'm dreaming and go back to sleep, but don't return to this fantasy.
-----
I'm on a subway or tram that is very reminiscent of the Atlanta airport tram except there are bench seats to sit on. I'm looking out the window for my next stop. I say something like “I'm getting off at my next stop” in the car full of people. What I think is the next stop turns out not to be a stop at all. I say something like “I thought there was a stop here, did they pass it?” to which the dream man next to me says “maybe you're dreaming.” I look down at my silicone bracelet and instead of the square box pattern there is the picture of a ladybug instead. Excitedly I say “I AM dreaming!” as I shake the man's right shoulder. Then I remember there were digital messages across the tram's message board that were weird and I hadn't been paying attention to like “It's all cool. It's good.” I remember in my dreams I want to ask people who they are and what they represent, but as I look around the subway car I get the impression they are not important. In hindsight I should have tried anyway. Throughout the rest of the dream I remind myself in my head “I'm DREAMING!”
I think the man asks me what I'm going to do now that I'm dreaming. I say I want to get off at a stop I was meaning to. It's actually a place I had just had a non-lucid dream just a little bit earlier than this one. Something-ville. I can't remember the name. It's a swampy/watery town and there is a tiny boardwalk across swamp in which to get to a wooden planked city hall. I get off with another girl from the subway. We go into a house together that she is moving into. She ends up being Shoshanna from HBO Girls and Hannah and Adam are in there as well. We are in a dimly lit parlor/dining room and I am eating a huge plate of something delicious like vegan french toast. I don't know if that's what this is, but I'm shoveling it into my face. Shoshanna is talking about how she's gotten furniture from people for her apartment and that she is going to invite a lot of high school friends over and cook brunch for them. For some reason Adam gets upset and wanders into the living room in which there is a beautiful nude woman who he starts to make out with. This distresses Shoshanna and she goes into the kitchen. When he comes back over he says he just needed to do that to work out his emotions and Hannah says she does things to get back to the center of attention when she feels upset.

Cold, cloudy afternoon. I was walking on the sidewalk, getting close to a school and some kind of a stadium. When I was getting close to the stadium someone called my name and asked "What are you looking for here?" I quickly responded "Troubles."
