1. Invisible (LD)
I pass the group of boys in the room which resembles a restaurant. I make my way a bit further into the room, suddenly realize I'm dreaming, and I'm happy about it. There are several booths with people in them spread throughout the room and a wall in front of me which seems to block the passageway which leads out of the building. I think about what I want to do and decide against teleporting; I feel it's best to enjoy the current dream. I decide to simply head around the wall and leave the building. I enter an outdoor area in daylight which somewhat resembles a sidewalk in a city type area. There are tall builds to my left, a fairly busy street to my right, and a wide cream colored concrete pathway leading down the area. I begin thinking about some dream goals, and figure I'll play around with transformation for a bit. I decide to transform into crow form, and suddenly my body shrinks down to roughly twelve inches or so. I decide to look at my dream body to see how accurate the transformation is. I see that I have some human features including shoes and think it looks silly. I begin walking again and suddenly return to human size. I begin to see some shining lights which emanate from the buildings. There's also a small metal structure which resembles a bus stop of sorts. I walk a bit further and notice a female police officer. For some reason, I get the feeling she may be looking for me, so I decide to transform into a mouse and rapidly make the transformation, shrinking down to several inches and feeling my body take the shape of a mouse. I see two large metallic structures to my left, against the side of the large buildings, which are shaped similar to an electric razor and have several convex pods on the end. She seems not to notice me and I skid past her, moving slightly underneath one of the metallic structures. I suddenly remember invisibility from dreamviews competitions and decide to try it. I talk a few steps forward and revert to human form in the process. As I approach the officer, I imagine myself becoming invisible. I hear an interesting, loud decrescendo of a low pitched electronics, and I easily move past her without her noticing. As this happens, the dream begins to fade and I transition to a dream where I spend a solid three to four minutes dream journaling most of the lucid.

2. The Emerald Tree (LD)
I suddenly become lucid in the second story of a building which resembles a large house. There are several windows to the outside as well as an opening to the room to my right. I transition into this room and simply fly out of the house. Once outside, I look down and see a group of people in roughly their thirties looking up at me from a table. There are about five of them eating a meal together and they're smiling at me with interest. It appears that they're having a barbeque out on the deck of the house. I want to have fun and play around and say in a playful voice that I'm flying and ask if they know how. I find the interaction really funny, and they ask me how I'm doing it, staring in wonder. I tell them that I just meditate a lot, and I fly forward and to the right, past the group. I descend a slight bit, and in mid-air, and think about what I want to do for a moment. The group says something to the effect that I have a lot of skills and I'm good at what I'm doing. I turn to my right and see a massive tree in the distance. It's roughly twenty to thirty stories tall with a straight vertical tree trunk leading to a massive spherical top filled with green foliage. It seems to be emanating emerald hues, and I find the scene beautiful. I think back to the portion right before I came lucid where H was telling me what things in life are best for me. I find that this would be an interesting thing to ask the dream, so I turn to my right and ask something close to "Dream... what is best for me"? I don't get a response. I try once again, and move fly a bit in the direction of the response. I don't get a response yet again, and I see the group at the table smiling at me with amusement. I look at one of the guys and say to him in a funny playful way, "Don't say anything, guy!" I find the interaction really funny as I think he's going to mess around with me playfully. I think about what I want to do next and fly in the direction of the green foliage in the distance in an expansive area. I continue to think about where I'd like to travel to, then wake up.

Mechanics Realms (NLD) 08.10.2023

I don't know if I was lucid because I would have gone with the plot either way. I was the creator of a video game that is very similar to minecraft creative mode except the voxels are 1 decimeter and there is mechanics that allows for non grid snapped creations that work with physics simulations. The map is an infinite fractal where each voxel just has a color. Players move out from the center and claim voxels that they can then color and manipulate. Most voxels are smooth but you can instead choose to have a little stud which is like a lego stud and the voxels can rotate around them. I think it was called "mechanics realms" or something like that because the physics simulations let you make advanced physical mechanisms like zeplins and such.

When the game started out, the player base was claiming the area immediately around 0,0,0. I could see a map of the players progress sort of like r/pixel. People seemed to like the game but it wasn't catching on right away. This is where I started alternating with another plot line. Outside the game I was one of the friends of the teenage aged kids from Stranger Things. I tried to get them to play the game but they lost interest quickly. Lucas had a big basketball game coming up and I really didn't like some of the players on the other team. They were bullies. Luckily the other team sucked so Lucas won the game.

Back in the game, I added a mechanic similar to the nether in minecraft where there is a plane you can teleport to to travel faster relative to the overworld. When I came back to the overworld I was in a complex and colorful fractal like cave!

Back in the "real" world I tried to tell them about the game while hanging out. I think there was some dialogue but I suck at remembering dialogue. Then I woke up to my alarm.

W2/3: City Skiing
DO there are people skiing on city streets. The streets are very steep, like in San Francisco. There steep hill sections between intersections are broken up by level areas where the cross streets go across the steep vertical streets, so the steep sections are not continuous hills but have flat areas every block. There are cars also driving on the streets and I'm sort of amazed that the skiers are able to share the streets with the cars.

W2/3: Burning Building
[Some longer part of the dream, forgotten] In the distance I see a large building with smoke coming from it, it is probably on fire.

W2/3: Mega Theater/DMV near epic
Entering the Theater

I'm with a male friend and we're in line for a major performance in a theater. As we approach the main entrance, the usher stops the line and blocks the entrance with a ribbon, right in front of us. I think "what bad luck, we almost made it in." There is a huge crowd still in the lobby/entry way in front of us. I think there is space for us still in the line. The crowd surges forwards, and now there is room for us and they remove the ribbon and let us in. We join the crowd surging forwards to hurry in to the theater. We enter it, it is cavernous, a huge theater with many levels and many different seating sections. We're in the back right corner of the theater, either ground level or 2nd level. The theater extends very far in front of us and to the left, it is really huge.

Finding our seats

Everyone is rushing to find their seats before the performance starts, because once they lower the lights it will be impossible to find the seats and we'll have to leave the theater. We've moved to the left hand side of the theater, it's really confusing, I'm trying to figure out where we're sitting. The seat is marked by a combination of section, (then row and seat #?), but I can't figure out where our section is. I figure that I can bisect the search by finding the sections larger than our and less than our and then ours will be in the middle. There are sections full of seated people all around us.
[A lot more, really long dream, forgotten]
S/A meeting w/ people in a central area?

Enter the DMV

There is a really large indoor lobby, this is the (DMV?) we're here to do some administrative tasks. We enter the large area and descend to the ground floor, we need to get through a turnstyle/gate, some people (my friend?) is let through, but I'm detained and brought to an administrator. The admin says that I am denied service because of a violation, and shows a video of me at some automated robot kiosk where I supposedly was earlier, the kiosk (robot? clown?) asked me a question and I gave a flagrantly false answer. And because of this lie, they are denying me service.
