NLD #1

Some game and/or tv show and/or soap opera adds a character named after "Luis van Guido" and they have just revamped his character portrait sprite. He has X confirmed kills (or 4 hours to first confirmed kill). My "grandmother" is excited about the news since it's something the hip young ones would also be interested in and is trying to pull up his sprite on her phone to show us but is only getting the old one. I go on the internet to find it myself. He is a handsome looking man with short dark hair and a beard.

NLD #2

Some guy is streaming painting some plushies which each represent various internet people. Before he starts, he takes pics from an old flip phone to show chat. This includes an artist I follow. At some point he also video calls someone who cheekily answers while in the middle of driving which is alarming. During one point in the call they turn around in the driver's seat briefly and we're like "please watch the road!"

LD

FA? I'm in my bedroom and become lucid, nose RC to confirm. With some effort I get out of bed and leave through the window. But before I do, I figure I should look around since I rarely do that. My bedroom is an older style bedroom this time with dark wooden panel wainscoting and frames hanging on the walls. The dream is pretty fuzzy, not very vivid, but I don't think to try and fix this first.

I head out and try to remember what I need to do for the LD comp. I end up on the roof of some building in daytime wracking my brain for some memories. I eventually remember about teleporting. I try to find a door nearby, going down to street level in this dingy alleyway, and see a door that's more like a wooden closet door. Briefly, I consider making my own door/portal because that would count as a personal goal but I figure I should start simple instead.

I open the door and crawl inside. It's empty, there's a shelf near the top, and it's cramped. I close the door behind me and first imagine the outside changing, but then I figure this could be like Narnia instead. I imagine the back of the closet receding and feel around for a second door. I don't have a specific destination in mind, so I open it and end up in what looks like a Muji, with products on display and all.

I am a little disappointed. I try to think of a specific setting and decide on Harry Potter. I find a properly sized door and go through. I find myself on this flight of dark wooden stairs. I squint (everything is still fuzzy and dreamlike) and try to reason if this place could be related to Hogwarts but it looks more like a regular university, like a old New England-style building. I vaguely imagine an auditorium-like setting in my head and keep moving. I don't remember what Hogwarts actually looks like, which doesn't help.

I end up in a dollar store or bookstore with aisles of items on shelves. Instead of worrying about it further, I look around for some magic wands on the shelves and at first see something that might be it, but turns out to be some plastic toy bubble maker. Screw it, I'll make my own wand. I hold both my hands out and mimic "pulling" a long piece of wood out of thin air between pinched fingers, like stretching taffy, until I get a long wand. The surface of it is bumpy and uneven. I try to Wingardium Leviosa something nearby but it doesn't work at first. I remember I need to actually "craft" a magic tool for the competition and try "enchanting" it by imagining a dark spiral pattern onto it and pressing some purple symbols into the wood. There is an older woman behind the front desk that reminds me of McGonagall who gives me some advice about the gesture (down and up).

(after this point I'm not 100% sure I'm still dreaming, though I don't think I feel my physical body in bed?)

I feel a wave of something that might mean I'm waking up at this point and am ""daydreaming"" instead. Feeling a sense of urgency/doubt, I follow the woman's advice and try to levitate a product on the counter and it works (? unclear)

I go outside after and think about what else I can do. I'm not sure if I'm actually dreaming or imagining things right now. I call out for A. just for the hell of it as I walk past a dimly lit construction site through an underpass, the right side of me blocked off by a blue wall. He actually appears around the corner, holding a plate with a slice of cake and a strange two-piece umbrella where the handle detaches. I'm surprised and glad that he's there. I feel the pulse of "something" again. I ask him about the umbrella and he says something about needing to allow or not allow some other people from using it? Unclear, but it's a mischievous vibe. I realize the cake is gone. I want to ask more but then I'm 100% awake.

Summer Competition 2024 - Night 5
1. Castle (LD)
I’m in bed in a dim room. Something feels off. I stand up, feel gravity and become lucid. I quickly make my way to the main upper hallway and begin flying over the banister toward the central upper window. I gently get pulled down, yet I grab the sill and yank myself up and continue to soar through the glass and into the front yard. I look around a bit and see the front brick walls. I hookshot to the top and zoom to the wall. I pick a farther point to the left as the building extends quite far. I hookshot higher up and zoom once again to a farther distance. I see another very large building even farther to the left with several terraces on the top of each portion which seem to have a lounge area - there’s a small glass barrier and people outside on what appear to be lounge chairs toward the edge. I fly around quickly just beyond the buildings, then zoom over. I land on an upper terrace and approach a seating area to the back. I see many people gathered and look to see if I recognize any. I smile and give one a high five and they smile back at me. I head back even farther and notice a dim room in the back that seems to be a mix between a theater and a bar. I look around and see a large wall unit in the back. I go for TK but it doesn’t move right away. I then turn toward a massive red couch in the center. I extend my arm and begin to lift it - midway at first, then right to the ceiling before dropping it back down. I finally decide to teleport. I explore toward the back and lower my right sleeve, looking for the gravity bracelet. I see the beads appearing around my wrist and begin to cast into the wall. I only see a faint outline of a portal appear. I turn to the left wall to cast, yet only see a slight undulating effect in the brick. I decide to simply phase in and walk straight into the wall. Once inside, I begin jogging in place to stabilize. I remember Silvermoon and briefly visualize it before a scene begins forming. I see a stack of massive as well as small stones stacked vertically to my left in the early dawn hours on a grass field. A castle looms in the back and a figure in what seems to be leather armor is in front of me - I think of Link. We begin to walk toward the castle which has blue, pastel type walls. It looks almost like it’s a cell-shaded type look. I enter the castle walls and begin to float up in the central area between spires. The dream begins to dim and I wake up.


2. Phoenix Leaves (LD)
I continue to walk toward the driveway of a house in Meadow and as I reach it, I become lucid. I walk toward the bottom and become curious as to how the DCs perceive things.
“How many of you know this is a dream?”
One in the back raises their hand, tentatively, seemingly unsure if they should be telling me or not.
Yeah okay I think, not really sure if there answer meant anything. I continue toward the bottom. I stop for a moment, and look at my hands, slowing down and focusing. My ring isn’t there as usual. I turn for flight and quickly lift upward, carve to the right, and float in front of the mailbox. I consider hookshot. I just did that…I don’t want to spam it. I lower back down and go for super strength up. I pick one of the DCs up with one arm and chuck him toward the driveway. I then go for teleport, thinking of Silvermoon. I raise my right arm but don’t see the portal bracelet. I go to cast portal into the mailbox, but don’t see much. I turn away and go to summon a phoenix. I imagine a red gauntlet, but don’t see one. I wave my arm toward a tree. I don’t see anything fly, but notice all the leaves of the tree seem to be an orange red, and quite long. I approach the tree and notice that on the ends of each branch, phoenix-bee hybrid type creatures are situated - almost as though they are leaves. I go to pick one up off of a branch. Soon I feel a sharp pain on the center of my nose. Is that from waking life? That actually hurts. I feel as though the skin on my nose is actually peeling. I should probably wake up to check on that. I wake up. Everything is fine.

Finally, some good Jamie dreams!

Jamie 1

I'm driving down a street in a red car with Jamie. It's a nice sports car with stripes down the middle. It's not like that one car I've seen her in with the not quite red and not quite brown color. She's saying to me, " when we are talking again in person I'm going to make you my boyfriend." I guess that's how she already thinks of me in relation to dreams and possibly head voice... She means when we finally talk in person it's going to be For real fr.

Jamie 2

Jamie is telling someone, maybe praying... She's saying, "Make sure Robert gets lots of reassurance." I guess reassurance that she's coming in eventually.

I guess both of us, with our emotional problems.. we both going to need a lot of reassurance. Already experienced a phase of this with the head voice relationship. She was constantly checking in and so was I. And we both equally were able to provide. What others might consider too clingy or toxic, we both feel that level of giving and receiving attention good for us, which is why I think we are the best together. Nowadays we mostly check in at night and seem to be happy with that.

Jamie 3

I see her camping and making out with some guy by a fire. . .
That better have just been a dream.

Jamie 4

Standing by Jamie in a kitchen by a stove. From a pot she grabs a large spoonful of gravy and feeds it to me. She just was smiling while doing so.

Did she know I had roast, potatoes and gravy last night?

Dream #1
I’m driving with a couple in a black car, driven by some sort of butler. We enter a rundown warehouse area, long buildings made of white aged brick and sheet metal. It is a bright day with blue sky. The couple had bought a house that used to belong to a millionaire and near the warehouses. The house is on the right and is mostly white brick, and covered in some graffiti. There is gravel all over the ground and I can hear it crunch under the car wheels. A church is across from the house and it has largely open walls so you can easily see the people inside. It looks like some sort of mass is in progress. The couple want to engage in 'private' activities in their house, but it would mean in full view by the Mass, so they don’t. There’s an old lady playing the organ off to the left of the church. As I look around I notice there is also an Antique store in one of the other warehouses, which I’m excited to check out.

Fragment:
I'm hosting a party with my girlfriend's family. There is water saturating the carpet and I'm concerned that something is wrong.

Odd Pressure:
I hear my alarm go off and I reset it to snooze for 20 more minutes.
I wake up again and I notice that there is something wet on the floor. I go back to sleep again.
My alarm goes off again and this time I get up.
I go through my normal routine, and start brushing my teeth.
I feel an odd pressure on my left side. I realize that it is actually my girlfriend's body up against me on the bed.
I realize that I'm dreaming, and I don't feel the pressure anymore.
I quickly grab some toothpaste and swallow it, realizing that I could get competition points for that.
The taste is close to how it normally should be, but somehow drier. Blueberry-ish flavor.
The dream fades quickly, but I'm satisfied that I managed to do something before then.

Tot Gym:
I'm at the gym with some people from my 'Tots' friend group. H is there and also M.
The gym resembles the Crunch Fitness I visited some weeks ago.
There is a high-tech looking machine that requires a top-level membership to operate.
I'm worried that my friends are going to be lifting heavier than me.

This time I was crawling through cramped mechanical rooms with pipes and cobwebs, so I transformed the area to be similar but in the pr. The space turned into a tight cave and the pipes turned into roots. Once I got above ground, I was in a massive hollow tree with strands and vines hanging down. As I walked within the tree a spider with a body the size of a car jumped onto me and bit down through my armor. It began spinning webs and I could feel the armor imploding down into me. My book fell out and it opened to the page with the fire spell, so I molded the fire that came out to attack the spider and surround it in flames.

The flames spread to its webs which used to be hidden in the darkness. As one entire orb web was lit, it exploded and released acid that melted huge chunks of the tree and my armor. I gave myself invulnerability to survive the wave of acid and tore through one of the arms of my armor to crush one of the spider’s arms. Jumping back it spoke in scratchy noises but I used mind reading to understand and speak with it. It believed I was one of the Alliance due to my armor but it understood who I was from seeing my skeletal arm rip out.

The poison from its jaws missed my body in the armor but the acid from the web was extremely destructive so I asked it about its webs. It explained that there was nothing stored in the webs, but they were made in the shape of magic circles. It taught me the circles it knew including one it used to crush my armor. I found out the spiders in the area did not identify themselves as part of the Horde but they completely aligned with it against the Alliance. As we spoke I ended up meeting insect-like monsters who gave all kinds of information on the land, war, fighting styles, magic, and weapons. As we were talking, a party from the Alliance came walking through.

Seeing that we had to fight, the first spider I met then carved a glyph onto my arm so I could produce its silk which was useful for instantly creating spells. I wanted to fight alone to test my new knowledge and they agreed to it. As I jumped down I spun magic circles on myself to lighten my fall and silk to patch up the holes in my armor. I tried talking but the party instantly aimed all their weapons at me and the fight began.

They all came at me at once and I fought back with the ice sword in one hand and the broken sword swinging on a thread in the other. One in the back got slashed by the broken sword as the closest enemy got stabbed and instantly frozen. I was then able to use spells by having them written on myself and my armor instead of opening the grimoire to a specific page. I used that magic to teleport around the party attacking each one before they could react. I combined that with extreme speed to completely disorientate them. When only one was left, they used a spell to throw my weapons out of my hands and a magical circle appeared in the air in front of them. I recognised it as the acid spell and my hand through the circle and into their chest, both disrupting the spell and ending the fight.

After the fight I looked through all that they had including their spells, better armor, maps, and extra weapons. I was able to understand the enchantments on the broken swords thanks to the knowledge the spiders and monsters gave, so I left it there. All that I could not carry such as extra armor and weapons was analyzed for their enchantments but left behind. Using their map, I decided to move on towards more allies of the Horde.

1. Construction
I become aware as a scene of an outdoor area with large orange shelves on either side of me forms. The central, concrete walkway is quite wide and about one hundred meters long with people bustling in the center. I need to engage. I pick up momentum, running into the scene and the dream soon feels more stable. I notice that the shelves are made of metal bars, similar to what you'd see in a construction store. Hmm...dream control time. I go to fly up, but the dream resists. Strange... I go once again and drift up to an upper shelf to the right. I then float across the upper shelves a couple more times before noticing a figure in the central walkway. I should interact. I float down to him.
"Hey! What's going on"
He looks at me and give a big smile and a nod. I just decide to move on. I look down at my hand, breathing and grounding.
I float farther down to the right and notice that there's some type of outdoor shop, which open up even farther down to the right. I notice many stuffed items around, as though a portion is for kids. I notice safari-type stuffed animals on a small round table in the center. I extend my arm to turn one of the animals to life. It doesn't respond. I float forward and begin to wake up.


2. Enfeeble
I'm aware as a scene forms in a dim room. I'm sitting at some type of conference table and some type of important, yet ominous business man is sitting to my right. I need to engage. I feel as though I can't begin engaging yet. I continue to listen to the man talk and feel like I need to distract him. I turn to my left, look at a worker and set the intent to make him weak and collapse. The man hunches over, and falls to the floor. The boss seems to be concerned and focuses on the worker. I begin to wake up.

3. Sink
I'm aware in Meadow main house, toward the top of the stairs. I begin walking down, ready to begin some control. I begin flying toward the upper window, yet the dream gently pulls me down. I decide to just phase through the thick glass of the front door and walk out into the dark night. It's a bit dark here...I could just teleport, but I don't feel like going to void right now... I simply turn and phase back in, where there's more light. Once inside, I go for full transformation into a phoenix as I make my way through the central hallway, yet it doesn't click accurately. I decide to go for some basic summoning and eating before moving on. I'll get some ice cream - I've been having a lot of chocolate in dreams lately. I open the freezer and bright light comes out. I reflect on the quality of my awareness, gazing into the bottom of the freezer. This isn't too different from waking life...it feels so stable... I don't want to engage any other DCs, so I decide to do it quietly. I notice a large tub of strawberry ice cream on the bottom, so I pull it out and place it on the counter. As I look more closely, the container seems to morph: it's now a plastic container and as I scrutinize the contents it seems as though the package inside becomes smaller and simply white. I'll just get something else. I look back in the freezer and see a round cake to the right and half of a long, narrow cake to the left. It looks like it's chocolate and custard, so I gab that. I take a big chunk into my hand as I walk across the room, considering what control to do next. I could do mass TK, but I should do something else...turn some music on?I take a bite of the cake, yet a very strong taste of garlicy, buttery salmon explodes in my mouth. Whoa!! It's unexpected and I feel like I need to get the taste out immediately. I spit it out into the sink, but it persists. I begin rinsing my mouth out. I stop for a moment and look at my hand, stabilizing. I reflect once again on how stable and focused my awareness feels. I turn away from the sink to continue. I wake up.

Dream #1
Get dropped off at airport gate by van driver who’s doing individual rides. Get to security and realize I’m traveling with a bunch of paraphernalia that I need to sort. There are a bundle of wood wands from my childhood that had been cut at the ‘handles’ and separated. I also spent a long time anxiously trying to put out a variety of incense that wouldn’t stop burning. I was worried that security would catch the smoke.

Dream #2
At the Japan airport gate. My sister is trying to change her seat from Red 9 to the lounge because she missed her connection last time she sat in red 9. She points to confiscated items under the help desk, picking up a lighter, to show her ask is reasonable but it’s denied by old Russian man behind desk. We board the plane.

Dream fragment #3
I’m hiding under some slatted stairs and a friend is teasing me with realistic stuffed animals that he had made.

Dream fragment #4
On top of moving train. In some sort of hammock and trying not to lose my keys or other things out of my pocket through the hammock netting.

Death and Pterry

I'm in some classroom with bluish lighting, either playing a game or actually physically there. I see a couple of small black bunny statues on top of the hanging fluorescent lights and remember I'm supposed to click/collect them to get points. Between some of the bunnies I see a miniature Death from Discworld talking with a mini Pterry - I accidentally make both of them decade or two younger because I use something like a magnifying glass on them. Someone comments that they've never seen that before. I guess Death isn't a skeleton in this case? I get concerned and try to reverse it but it eventually doesn't matter.

There's more to this but I don't remember.

FA Chain LD

(some of this might be out of order because there were quite a few FAs but should be roughly correct.)

I wake up sometime in the night and try to WILD. Eventually I do the nose check and yup I'm dreaming. I get out of bed and open the window and leave. As usual the window is accessible compared to IRL where I have a desk in front of it. The window slides upwards instead of to the side.

Somehow I find myself indoors in some vast shifting building. I try to remember my DV LD competition goals and recall one about hobbies. I find a whiteboard on a wall and take one of the dry erase markers nearby and start drawing. There's already a bunch of writing and some doodles on it shifting around. I see a doodle of an anime face on it and try to do the same. It's difficult because with every stroke the dry erase marker changes color and the drawing "wiggles", turning into something almost but not quite the same. I manage to finish a very unimpressive drawing. I think it's the face of a girl with two small hair buns.

At some point I try to fly but gravity gets in the way as usual and I slowly fall down, though this time I'm decently bouyant.

Next I look around and think about trying climbing. I try to manifest some climbing walls as I scale upwards but all I get are sections of mall-like areas / food courts, dark blue and orangish. I'm pulling myself up the walls that I can reach -- they're made of some soft netlike material and are not quite vertical. Some sections are more like stairs. The indoors is more like an escher painting with nonsensical architecture than a regular building. I don't get anything more done when I wake up.

I'm disappointed that my LD was short as usual. I decide to write down my dream on my phone before I forget in my usual notetaking app, which is correctly in dark mode with purple highlights, but there are weird outlined blocks of text that keep reappearing in my notes even after I delete them and I can't make much progress writing it down. I think this is a bit weird. Shortly after, I try RCing and it's actually an FA. I pull myself out of bed and exit through the window.

I decide to make my way through the city like Spiderman. I make the web shooting sign with my hand and shoot webs to swing around a couple of buildings/skyscrapers and remember possibly talking to a friend about being able to do so in an LD. It's pretty fun though not as vivid as it could be. Eventually I find myself in some city streets.

I call out in the street for A. (one of my characters), and some stocky latino guy with a buzzcut comes around the corner. He asks for my name first and I tell him. He says his name is Emilio [something]. I ask if he knows if A. is around and he says no, unfortunately not (with the implication that he's not in the dream world at all). I say it would be nice to get to chat with him. As we talk, I spiderman up a building and he follows, hauling himself up a metal awning with pure physical strength. I'm about to ask him further, but I wake up.

I do the nose check again, realize it's an FA, roll out of bed. This time I grab the handset of a corded phone on a desk next to the window, or pretend to do so with the phone hand sign up at my ear. I don't call anyone specific, but an older woman responds. I ask for A. as I leave through the window and she says, one moment, can you put yourself on mute? I pretend to do so by "pressing" a button on my fake phone and making a "beep" sound. I have no idea if it works. It occurs to me (absurdly) that if I take a corded phone outside, the cord would get caught on the window and have a distance limit, so I switch to pretending to hold a smartphone instead. I walk around while waiting for the woman, ducking under some scaffolding. It's nighttime. I wake up again before I get an answer.

it's another FA. I try to pause this time before leaving to try and stabilize the dream. I don't think it really helps but I look outside the window and it's a busy city street at night, with a bunch of residential brownstones across the street. There's an ambulance traveling backwards, possibly floating. The air is cool against my skin. I glance to my left and right -- I'm a couple stories up in some red brick apartment building. I half expect some other person to be leaning out their own windows at the same time, but there's no one in the adjoining apartments. I call out for both A. and E. (another character) but don't get any response. A group of people pass by below me and one of them is N. (an IRL friend) with longer hair than usual, his hair half up. I hop down and talk to him and say that I like his new hairstyle. He's about to respond when I wake up for real.

* Applying to work at McDonald's. Lots of people in a room are filling out forms/applying. There is a hiring manager there. I say that I was the most productive chef/cook (saying this so that they should definitely hire me), the manager says "yeah, but we do things differently now, and we don't diss Apple", apparently I was constantly ragging on apple before, (and they're a new partner now). Enter a waiting room with several people I'm helping them, I'm carrying something for them, I'm going past a guy (room attendant/guard) who I who in the past has disapproved of me/blocked me [DS], there is a tray on a counter with little bits of food/bread, and I'm putting down the stuff I'm carrying in this tray. He guard doesn't seem to notice me.

* Elevator [DS]. A guy is trying to get on to a coin-op elevator, to call the elevator you need $0.15, he was struggling to find the coins for this, I was digging in to my pocket to find them, I'm ready to give them to him. The the doors open. (Circular, not flat), there're people on the elevator, it was hard for him to get on, the doors closed, and I stick my arms/legs in the door to try to pry/hold them open.

* Camera. I'm trying to figure out how to configure some feature of a camcorder. I'm holding the device before my face and and manipulating the controls, and looking at the viewfinder with the controls overlay. I'm twisting a swivel, manipulating controls, using a 3D setup screen, eventually I conclude that this model does not have the function I was trying to enable. It's fairly small, I look at it while holding it in my hands, about the size of a small book.

* Meeting groups of people outdoors -- one was setting up a picnic in an outdoor area, on a dry grassy field along a road/path. I had a yoga mat and was thinking of laying it down but wasn't sure I wanted to lay it down right on the ground, I decided to lay it down and people lay out food and drinks.

* (f) people were zipping around in the snow on helmet "unicycles". There were standing in upside down motorcycle helmets and "driving" around in the paths in the snow, one of them went around me to avoid me and then rejoined the path in front of me, they make a little high-pitched fast gas-motor sound, like a gas model/toy boat.

* Food: I'm at a party in the JTyn (DT) house, I'm in the kitchen, looking at the trays and containers of food. The first one I'm looking at is little crunchy crust bowls (edible) of some white substance like maybe mashed potatoes. Some people were swirling their tongues (or I was imagining doing this) around inside the bowls. Then I see a plate of dark brown/black gingerbread cookies, and I pick one up and take a bite, feeling a little sheepish about eating stuff from their kitchen

* Bus ride: around the McDonald's interview, I realize I'm late and I need to get back before I miss the bus, I'm panicking, my hands are shaking, and I'm rushing around to get ready to leave, I get on the bus and there's a woman standing with a clipboard on the bus as a tour/group organizer, I know that she had disapproved of me before, I'm looking at the driver out the front of the bus, this woman is with her, and they are consulting the manual for the bus while driving fast on the road, I'm getting nervous because she's spending long moments consulting the manual instead of keeping her eyes on the road.

* (f) There's a guy trying to get somewhere on the bus and he has a big, heavy box with him.

* (f) I'm wearing jeans and the jeans are wet. I feel the wetness on the front of my quads. I'm thinking I'll stick them in the dryer over night (wherever I'm staying).

* There are some people sitting down at outdoor picnic tables [DS] there is a woman who wants to sit down on the bench, but the bench is dirty and she's waiting for a gentleman to pull out a handkerchief so she can sit on it, one guy to the right pulls out one and puts it down and it is half dirty, then the guy on the left of the woman does the same, it's more the size of a towel, I'm standing right in front of this and looking down and seeing it all, and the right side of the towel is streaked black with grime, and I wonder if the woman who sits there will be able to avoid it and only sit on the clean part.

* Driving at night in a city (B?) taking a shortcut, up a slight hill, reach a stop sign at a fairly major street, I need to wait for traffic to clear in order to cross, finally I drive, and up ahead up a hill after crossing the street some people are stopped in the road on the left side and are waving frantically and pointing to somebody or a crashed car in the right hand side of the street, I couldn't quite see what was there, but I did stop, then it becomes clear, like a motorcycle had crashed, and was lying on the road, but if I had accelerated and ran into him it would have been bad.

1.Gunblade (LD)
I’m lucid in the kitchen in Meadow main house. Hmm… I may as well grab something to eat something before I begin…a basic summon then eat… I go into the left cabinet, looking for a bar of chocolate. I don’t find it and pick up the pace to find one quickly. I head to the right cabinet, find a small packet at first, then a larger item at the top. I grab it, notice it’s what I’m looking for, and begin to eat it as I walk toward the family room. I reach the center and look and look around for some ideas. Super strength time. I grab a huge section of the couch and chuck it to the far side of the room. I for a moment to stabilize my awareness. I look at my left hand, breathing slow…grounding. I notice the the bookshelf come into view in front of me quite vividly. I ignore it for the time being and set my mind to mass TK. I turn toward the large sofa to my left, extend my right arm and notice it seemingly building off the ground. I then see it raise considerably, soon reaching toward the ceiling. I simply let it drop and decide to move on. I should look for…a warglaive…or at least find a weapon for the theme. I head through the double doors, imagining a large blade in the room beyond. I soon notice a large lance looking object laying up against a window, hilt exposed. I approach, expecting it to be a sword. I grab the hilt, lift it and notice that it’s a massive gunblade - like from Final Fantasy VIII. I notice the considerable heft in my hands and begin to brandish it. I look in the mirror and notice the intricate design toward the hilt, resembling an assault rile somewhat. Beyond the hilt, the sword resembles a greatsword, about five feet long.
I pull the trigger as I walk to the entryway, going for a fireblast. Nothing happens. I continue to look at the awesome reflection of the sword in the mirror to my right. I should summon a phoenix now. I turn toward the doors, open them, and notice a tropical type setting in the front yard: the dense foliage has deep maroon as well some green leaves and the rainfall is fairly heavy. The car is in a strange spot in the yard…this looks a bit different than Meadow usually looks. I extend the gunblade, attempting to summon a phoenix. Nothing appears. I run through a list of potential dream controls from the competition in my mind. Gravity time. At first, I try to outright flip gravity 90 degrees as I’ve done before, but the dream resists a bit. I then simply walk up the side of the house and I soon find myself standing on the side of the building, gravity rotated. I then land back down, considering where to explore. I feel the dream beginning to dim. Silvermoon. I begin visualizing Silvermoon City and hearing the music playing. I rub the concrete intensely with my hands in circular patterns. I soon wake up.

2. Car Throw (LD)
I park the car alongside the curb and look at the dashboard. I’m lucid. Calm, steady…engage. I calmly look around the vivid scene. I open the car door, step out, and consider what to do next. I look at my hand, remind myself I'm dreaming, and take in the moment. I may as well do some control with the car as it’s right here… I could engage some of the buttons for “use electronics”. I sit back down, hit the brake and touch the push button start. The engine revs and I touch the ‘drive’ button to shift from park. I hit the gas and begin steering the car, driving down the road. The dream begins to feel that it’s dimming a bit, so I stop and get out of the car as it’s still moving. I turn, then grab the car and chuck it. As the dream begins to fade even more, I fly upward, then begin turn slowly as I visualize Silvermoon City, fully transitioning to void. I stop spinning and wake up.

8.7 - clubbing with grandma
- me, my grandma and my sister all climbed the facade of this building to get into a rooftop club for free, i have a memory (it was a memory in the dream) of watching someone else climb up and say they'll never find out since it is dark outside, i started talking to a dude on the terrace because he seemed familiar, then i saw my friends and a random dude started offering me molly, i declined but he convinced me eventually, we went to a table in the corner and i watched him do a line and he said its my turn, i realised i cant do this since my grandma could see me so i left him and started looking for my friends, i couldnt find anyone and went to this birthday party deeper in the club, i was still on edge because i didnt have a ticket and i didnt know anyone, the girls celebrating did a little parade and i found my friends eventually, they were still talking to someone and i tried to convince them to leave, it took a long time but we eventualy started leaving (it was bright outside now), i said i need to get back to the terrace because i may have forgoten something (i planned to leave there because i didnt want to go trough the front), my friend had keys from pretty much every door and we took a big detour trough many rooms including a room looking like an ikea with mirrors which lead outside, i said i dont need to go to the terrace since i have everything, i noticed i have my headphones twice so i did an rc (+1) and became lucid, remembered i need to fly so i asked for wings (+5) and flew (+5) up to this rock wall which had shoes on it, i then read a billboard advertiding bananas, my flight was not the best, but i kept trying to fly to space because it is my 3step task, then it started to rain and became windy, there was a mom with a son and they were struggling to hold onto this parachute, so i flew there and took it from them (+2) hoping it would help my flight, it didnt and i woke up soon after

edit: i just remembered more infor from the second dream.
- once i was outside and lucid, i kept thinking about where i am sleeping irl, the nightclub part was really long so i assumed that was real and i was considering that i just fell asleep inside, this made me worry for my wallet and phone so i eventually gave up and woke myself up on purpose

My dream begins in a home I vaguely remember from childhood, it's situated in my small hometown on a side street, corner lot. There are several people in the home when I enter, I'm following behind my soon-to-be ex-husband. The home is dark and closed off, it smells of old wood and mildewing books. I can hear a man and woman discussing family matters, referring to me as "the girl" As I look around and draw in my surroundings and try to acclimate to the dark, I notice 5 other people who I'm not familiar with, they're younger like me, early to mid 30's, we're all dressed in clothing that looks to be from the 30's maybe the 40's. The "parents" (referred to by others in the home as mother & father) are dressed in what I consider their best dress, what you would see at a gathering. My soon-to-be ex-husband has now come to sit next to me after having disappeared momentarily. He reaches over and places his hand on my knee, tells me "Mother will prove it to you, just wait, I promise". After a moment of garbled conversation among the other people in the home "Mother" calls for us to come to her, we stand and walk to her, I'm lagging behind him, I'm not feeling very safe and I don't want to go with him but I follow anyway. He leads me down a hall into what looks like a study, the man & woman at the front of the room are almost regal, there are 2 other people beside them who I don't know, they're only standing, never speaking. She begins to speak, I can see her face, her mouth is moving, but I can't hear her words, I feel myself nod my head in agreeance but I have no clue what is being discussed. Everything flashes and suddenly we're outside on the porch of the home my ex and I are sitting on the steps discussing our next choices, I tell him I'm leaving and he won't change my mind, fear and sadness come over his face and I remind him that this is what he chose. As I stand to walk away there's another flash and I'm down the road, nearly to the main road in our town and he is begging me to hear him out. But the scenery is different, there are more trees, fewer homes, and the roads are more narrow. I can still see the businesses in the distance, but the residential area is somehow more serene. I yell as loud as I can and tell him I don't want his excuses, that I love him and I'm terrified of what is going to happen, but I can't stay anymore. He is no longer there, time passes and I find myself back at that house, there are different people in the home now & Mother and Father aren't there, everyone is sad, crying, mourning and I can't figure out who they are mourning. Finally, a small black dog makes its way in the door and I reach down to pet it, he's friendly and loving, I call him by name, although I can't recall it, and the dog stands up and says "He's gone but that's ok, you can bring him back, all you need to do is love me". Suddenly I'm awake....

This dream has eaten at my psyche since I woke up from it, I've racked my brain trying to interpret it to no avail...

Dream #1:
It’s night and I’m in childhood valley near where I grew up. I’m invisible and sneaking into my “animal senses” in order to wake them up. This was done by entering a bush on the side of the valley road without the cars headlights noticing as they drive past. I would then change into different animals? I’m doing pretty well first in a big cat form, but get a premonition that something big is going to go wrong. A massive train made of beaten up blue retro vans bursts destructively from my best friend's old house and into the valley. It careens up the road, and towards the hill that leads to my childhood home. I know I need to stop it, so I turn into a wolf with “earth powers” to try and cut it off. Scene goes third person, and as the wolf runs it creates a trail of earthquakes/earth walls behind it to block the “train’s” path as it tries to go up the valley hill.

Dream fragment #2:
Cleaning a large empty pool. There are leaves strewn on the bottom. I find metal skewers in pool (one with blue and one with red handles), which seems kind of dangerous. There is some sort of substitute teacher trying to direct operations of our group, but she realizes she’s redundant and that we already know what we’re doing.

Dream fragment #3:
I’m with a couple others learning how to summon “curses” or “spells” of some sort using intention. I think we’re in some sort of Buddhist monastery. I’m walking up some stairs and focused on my intention when I feel a shift inside of me. A couple metal “skewers” begin to fly around me and into the open chamber at the top of the stairs. Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche is our teacher and I can see him smiling as he follows me up the stairs. He says I’ve started to figure it out.

Escape Mom's House

I was playing a game where the main character was the Isaac from The Binding of Isaac. I found myself walking around a building going from room to room. The game was more of a 2D platformer like Mario rather than The Binding of Isaac.

I found a hole in front of me and sort of just walked into it on accident. I thought I died, but then the screen scrolled down revealing that there was a floor below me that I could now explore. I eventually found a way out and when I exited the home the game changed to 3D. I could now see Isaac desperately running on all fours to get away as fast as he could.

*Thinking back I don't know why I thought I died, in The Binding of Isaac that's how you go from level to level.*

Forest Recon

*This felt like one of those dreams that was close to being lucid but just ended up being extremely vivid and fun instead.*

I was with a group of soldiers in the forest. We spotted in the distance a large group of enemies and we were now at a standstill. We both knew each other were here and the only option now was to wait for something to happen.

Taking initiative I climbed up a tree and began throwing myself from tree to tree like an ape. I was swinging at high speeds to get behind the enemies for intel. A hill, probably about 100 feet tall, stood in front of me. To get around, I had to climb it. So, I did.

When I reached the top I found what appeared to be a wooden deck. I started walking down the wooden path when I discovered that it was connected to a trail. There were a lot of people walking it so I tried to play it cool, like I was always just around the corner enjoying the view and didn't climb the 100-foot drop. No one suspected me and I walked the trail long enough to finally find the enemies.

*Beyond this point I don't remember too much.*

I found one of my brothers with the enemies asking me to fix something for them. I was guessing the distance for a measurement saying something about it being 35 feet.
