    Fragment of Dreams

    1. Ahri Mystérique

      by , 05-01-2012 at 01:20 PM (Adventures in Dreamland)
      Something about Movie Gallery, there's a mirror world you can get to using a cannon-portal? There's a very starry dreamscape. It's very pretty.

      ----------------

      I'm a detective assigned to a missing person case. The person who was missing was a girl named Ahri. (I'm not sure if it was just a girl that looked a lot like Ahri from LoL or if I subconsciously translated what she would look like irl. Either way, it wasn't the same character.)

      I head off and do some investigating. I learn that she had been seen by someone some time ago, doing something that I can't remember.

      I'm getting off of a sort of pseudo-subway train, heading to a club. I get in somehow (probably just telling who I was,) and I get a lot of nasty looks from the club's members, as if I was there to arrest every single one of them. Everyone in the club is dressed up very nice. I go into a room in the back. I explain to everyone that I am a detective, and asked nicely if they would all line up against the wall so I could ask questions. I go around just looking at everyone, passing by Ahri without much thought. One guy starts trash-talking me, saying that he would beat the shit out of me and such. I just ignore him and continue. After I get about 3/4 of the way through, I go back to Ahri and look at her closely.

      "What's your name?" I ask her, squinting my eyes to get a better look at her. Everything is so blurry.

      "Ahri," she responds cooperatively.

      "No she's not!" the man beside her blurts out, looking worried. The man was involved in the case somehow. His name had Nine in it, but I don't remember his full name so I'll just call him Nine. I nod and put my hand on her back, leading her out of the room.

      "If you would come with me..." I say politely, and she cooperates. Once we get outside, I decide that I can probably get Nine to come with us too.

      "You can get your 'Anon' friend to come with us, too, if you'd like," I mention. Ahri opens the door and motions for someone to follow. The guy who threatened me walks out, and I shoot Ahri a glare.

      "Very funny," I say to Ahri, then turn to the man. "I'm sorry for wasting your time, sir." Ahri and I get on the subway-train-thing.

      I ask her if she knows who Nine is, and she says that he's her friend. I ask if she knows how he got his name and she says no. I explain that the government was experimenting using certain drugs, and that the one that they used on him killed him. Nine months later, he 'woke up' as if he had only gone to sleep. I tell her that any time he is knocked out or goes to sleep, he actually dies for a little while.

      A good bit of stuff happens. I don't really remember what, but I think that I started assisting Ahri. I do know that I took her to the detective's office place, but after that the mystery plot just kinda flopped. I took Ahri to my house, and we were running from something.

      Timeskip, Ahri and I are married. My memory is fuzzy about this part.

      Timeskip again, Ahri and I have kids. I'm teaching one of my kids how to use one of his powers that he apparently got from me.

    2. At my Uncle's House looking for my shoes

      by , 05-01-2012 at 07:32 AM
      I'm sure the dream is longer, but this is all I remember:
      I'm at my uncle's house and working on a project (I don't know which project this maybe explained in the earlier part of the dream), because I've a deadline. My parents are also here talking to my aunt and uncle (I'm in another room). I finish my work and tell my parents that we can go now (It is late and already night time) I just need to get my shoes. So I search for my shoes and can't find them. I'm asking my parents and my uncle says that he has put them to the ... (Don't remember where). He says that there are probably spiderwebs. So I go looking for them. The rooms are looking unusual. They have green tiled walls which I never saw in the house. They remind me of my dead grandmother's kitchen (RC fail #1). It also seems like I'm in a maze, because regardless where I go I keep ending up in the same room. Suddenly my cousin appears and suggest that I should go down the ladder and look there for my shoes. What? A ladder where should be a ladder -my cousin points right- oh. Yep there is a ladder in a dark corner surrounded by a little fence (about 10cm high) (Also RC fail#2, because the ladder wasn't there before). My cousin goes to the ladder and wants to climb down when a white mouse appears. It looks like a laboratory mouse. Wondering whether I should catch it or not the mouse runs away. Then my brother's girlfriend is there and wants me to help her collecting the Lego Duplo pieces. I don't know how the Lego pieces appeared, but whatever I help her (RC fail#3). My uncle makes an entrance and asks whether we now what are our Lego pieces and what are his boys. I don't quite get him, because his boys are way past the Lego Duplo stage...

      So, that's the extend of my dream recall. I don't know whether I've gotten my shoes or not or if we've managed to drive home. Also I remember something about not meeting the deadline.

    3. 4/26 - 4/30

      by , 05-01-2012 at 01:42 AM (Sea of the Unconscious)
      4/26 Fragments:
      Something about being in war with the Nazis. Robots were involved. I had a discussion with a sentient robot about war and the civilians that died. Then I had to prove to some lady that I was engaged.
      Note: I didn't sleep well, so my recall was terrible.

      4/27 Fragments:
      I was at my grandparents house with a bunch of my friends. I found a friend of mine to chat with, N. I took N by the hand and tried to find a private place for us to talk. I wanted to explain to N that I was very fond of flirting, and that I didn't mean to lead her on. The entire house and hard was swarmed with people, so I gave up on talking privately. I apologized to N twice without explaining why I was apologizing. Then I ignored N to play with another friend's hair.

      I was in class, and I realized that my final grade was 43%. I was informed that I could redo an essay to bring my grade up. I tried to calculate how my final grade would be affected by rewriting the essay, but found it impossible to do the math in my head.

      4/28 Fragments:
      My grandparents were dead, yet I could see their spirits. My sister and I stood in my grandparents' house, and my grandmother was standing by us. My grandfather was giving my family gifts to remember him by, and my sister was getting the house.

      My sister and I walked to a park, then went out to dinner with our father. My grandfather followed us, but I was the only one who could see him. My father wandered off in a trance, and began eating an invisible object. He was eating one of my grandmom's cookies, apparently his gift from my grandfather. Shortly after, my grandfather approached me and informed me that he didn't know what to give me, so I would not receive a gift. I sulked for the rest of the dream and thought about gifts I would have enjoyed.

      4/29 Settlers of Lion King Catan:
      I purchased a couple of birthday presents for my friend E, namely a game that was a mix between the Lion King and Settlers of Catan. E opened the game for us to play, and suddenly my vision was sucked into the game.
      In Lion King Catan, a small hippo decides how to gain access to the throne. His father is king, but the king is dying. Someone else, C, is vying for the throne though, and is much more experienced than the year-old hippo. I have no idea what sort of animal C is. C bribed someone to have the ailing king brought out before the hippo. The king was a fish, and looked pale and lifeless. C took out a knife and cut open the fish king along his spine. C spread open the fish king, and began scraping out the meat inside the king fish. C ate the meat he carved out, the king fish still alive. The king slowly died an agonizing death. The hippo was too traumatized and frightened to lash out at C.

      4/30 Heavy Rain and more war:
      This dream reminded me of the game Heavy Rain because of the colors and scenes. The beginning of the dream was pretty fragmenty, with people running around a dark building trying to not die.

      The next part I was in a class. I was waiting for a professor so I could take the final exam. The professor entered the room and announced that the test was cancelled, we were being taken to become soldiers for the war. We suited up and were driven out to a battle field, watching the destruction pass by as we approached the action. The truck arrived at the center of the battlefield, and I was handed a metal detector and flamethrower. We were given metal detectors so that when we ran out of fuel for our flame thrower, we could search for more fuel cylinders or a new weapon among the dead in the field. I swiped two extra fuel cylinders, and walked into battle.

    5. Fragments 03 - 25.06.09

      by , 04-30-2012 at 06:28 PM (Dream Tales)
      #1
      I was with David Tennant (who kept alternating between himself and the Doctor) and John Barrowman (whom I don’t know whether he was himself or Jack Harkness). David had had something happen to him to make him lose his memories. John/Jack and I kept him company and for some reason I held his hand a lot.

      #2
      David pointed to a house under siege from Cybermen.

      “There’s some people in there that I don’t remember who are in trouble!” he yelled.

      #3
      Me, the Doctor, John/Jack and Jackie Tyler were trying to escape from the house. We were going to shimmy down the drainpipe but there was a tiny microchip with a red flashing light on it attached to the pipe that would alert the Cybermen if we did.

      #4
      David had his memories back but couldn’t recall anything that had happened whilst he’d lost them. John/Jack had now lost his memories and we all walked down the street together chatting.

      #5
      I was back home and felt nauseous. I ran into the back garden and threw up in mum’s vegetable patch.

    6. Fragment Collection 17

      by , 04-30-2012 at 06:11 PM (The Erratic dreams of StaySharp)
      Sky bridge:
      I was assigned onto some kind of journey, and for some reason wasn't happy about it at first. I had to go up a long bridge-like structure, it was going up the entire time just to end in a dead end, some 50m above the ground. Before I arived there I went through some rural way with fences on both sides, leading straight to the bridge. The construction allowed to look outside but it would've taken dedication to jump out. The ground and the stairs were soft with some cables and other complexions all around the place.
      It seems I only needed to get to that bridge, not the top of it but decided along the way could go up anyway. When I arived at the top I took a look at the end and then slid down the entire way which took me way to short and even made me a tiny bit suspicious.

      Space bite and the strange complex:
      I was watching a story about a captain (he looked a bit like Dilan[Andromeda]) of a ship. The ship looked like it was from star trek. He started with a story of a sentient space life form biting half of his former ship off, nearly killing him in the process. Later when he had an ship (either looking like the Andromeda, or the Andromeda itself) I got to see it from the inside and he showed something to a woman. It looked really weird from the inside, everything was very dark and there were a bunch of Jeffrey tubes, which suddenly started to light up in red.

      Power enhancement with "Problems"
      I am watching some dude and a girl in a room, everything has an pretty ambient brown-orange light and they are sitting on a couch. I'm not actually present, only observing what's going on.
      They are talking about some kind of power enhancement the girl should perform on the dude, and like she suddenly remembered something slightly scary and very embarassing she asked him something like:
      Spoiler for Explicit Sexual Language:

      to which he just nodded along with a supporting "hm" sound (apparently because he'll lose some control), then he picked her up and made things more comfortable for her by putting her on a blanket on the ground.

    7. Ramblings of a Madman Entry 01

      by , 04-30-2012 at 03:29 PM
      Last night/this morning, I had yet another dream of someone from my past.

      In the dream, I return to a house she used to live in when we were younger. We have gone back there to meet for some strange reason. I do not know this reason, but I know that when I am here now, I do not want to leave without her. I get the feeling in this dream that we have been away from each other for too long, and I am relieved to be with her now. I go to find her in her room and we talk for a bit. The first thing I notice when I enter this room is there are many beds, stacked vertically, one on top of the other as far as I can see. I also notice that the blankets covering every one of these beds are a lush, red color. The dream shifts at this point to a completely different place (another house, where some parts I remember from other recurring dreams) and she takes my hand to lead me to her room. Her face has changed, to someone else from my past that I know, a completely different person, but I know it is still her? I notice that I am in nothing but shorts/boxers, and I have a coat on that I used to wear when I was a child. I use it to cover myself, embarrased, but it seems too tight or small. She asks me if I would like to take two paths to get to her room, her words aren't clear; but I know what she is saying. I choose a path, and it turns out to be a wooden stairwell. I look down at my feet as I walk up the stairs as they are suddenly unstable, so I have to watch where I walk, I can feel them move beneath my weight, but nothing actually happens. The stairs are very steep, and narrow, length-wise. We get to the top and enter her room, which is occupied by a bunch of people. There are about five random people in there hanging out, they are all in their pajamas. She kicks them out and lays down on an air mattress in the middle of the floor. I go to join her and we talk for a bit. At this point the dream turns erotic for a brief moment, and I wake up shortly after.

      Notes:

      This person is an old friend that I grew up with and at one time in our lives, we had a very strong friendship. Everytime I have this dream it seems to start this way; we meet, and I go to find her in her room, which is vastly different than it actually was in real life. This dream always starts with the beginning, then always shifts to a completely new dream. The last time I talked with this person was last year, shortly before she got married. I have not spoke with her since, even after making attempts to contact her. She is like a sister to me, and we love each other as such. The second room I was taken to reminded me of an elaborate tree house. Small inside, but very comfortable. I enjoy being in places such as this. The unstable stairwell is a reference to my job; I have delivered large appliances to people who have front decks that are poorly built, and move sometimes when I carry the weight across it. I do not know why the beds in this dream have red blankets. But I will note that the wood these beds are made of, is dark in color, and in the second part of the dream, the wood is lightly-colored.
    8. Nolte is a bad guy

      by , 04-30-2012 at 03:26 PM
      I was on my parent's room. I had to go out with my friends but it was dark and rainy and a bit late. My options were going walking or in bicycle but none of them were good since my friends live on the other side of the city. Besides I had to escape.
      A french woman, Claire, comes to me and hands me a card, keys and papers. She says something (which I don't remember) that if I could do a favor to her (which implied going out of the house) like encouraging me to escape.

      After that scene I appeared on the center of the city. There was a lot of mess due to political things, which I couldn't understand. [Many things happened there but the images are now a bit distorted so I rather don't tell.] I went back walking from the center to my house and in the path I saw the daughter of the french woman with Nick Nolte. This french woman is married but Nick was harassing her saying that he was a plastic surgeon. She is very naive so she believed him but I went there very angry and started punching him. Then he started grabbing my face and I did the same. While we were doing that I saw how our face got twisted and I even talked to him about that, and how this happens only in dreams but I couldn't realize I was dreaming...

      Didn't have a very good night's rest last night. I don't really remember any of my dreams, either. I did, however, have a lucid dream. All I remember is doing the noseplug reality check, being surprised that I was actually dreaming, and waking up almost immediately. I didn't even have enough time to stabilize. I also think that I was a lot calmer than usual, so I must be getting used to it. I'm getting closer and closer~

    10. 4-30-12

      by , 04-30-2012 at 01:43 PM
      Well, now it's my turn to have a stomach bug. Thankfully my daughter's sickness only lasted a day, so I'm hoping mine will be gone by tonight as well On the downside, I was up until 3 am sick, then I got to bed, but woke back up around 7 and couldn't go back to sleep yet. On the bright side, the belly ache is sort of helping with getting lucid. I think the pain was waking me up enough to get lucid but not enough to actually wake me up, if that makes sense. I'm typing up my lonely fragment from those three hours, and when my husband gets home in half an hour or so I'm going back to bed. Hopefully I'll have more to add to this entry when I wake up. I'm feeling like I'm on a real roll right now. After going over a month with no lucidity, I've suddenly been lucid to some degree for three nights in a row. I don't want it to ever end! lol

      Dream One (Fragment): Through out the whole dream I hover between lucid and non lucid. I can't remember what happened during the non lucid parts because it's my first dream of the night. I can remember realizing, I'm dreaming. I'm lucid! Then I see a puppet version of an old man. It looks like a cross between that ventriloquist dummy on tv and the old men from the Muppet movie I watched last night. He starts talking about neighbors like Mr. Rogers and I feel lucidity slipping. I literally feel like I'm fighting to stay lucid, but I end up drifting off anyways. I get another wave of lucidity as someone offers me his hand. I realize I'm dreaming. I look first at the room, it's a ball room similar to the one in beauty and the beast. It feels very romantic, and I can recall being lucid earlier in the dream so I wonder if I'm with K. I turn to look at the man holding my hand. I see my own blue dress like Cinderella and my hand in his, then I look up to see his face (I'm 5 feet tall, I always have to look up to everyone, lol) But just as I try to look at his face my head feels heavy like I'm falling. I reach up with my empty hand to touch my head as if to catch myself and step forwards to maintain my balance, but the dream goes black and fades away to the sound of the neighbors car alarm going off at 5:30 am.

      Dream Two (Fragment): I realize I'm dreaming. I don't know why I realized, I just did. I see a white cloth flapping in the wind. It looks like a bed sheet. I wonder why that's all I can see, and guess it's because it's an early dream. I'm startled awake by my daughter crying that she's falling. Thankfully, she's not really falling, she's in her bed, right in the center. I find myself wondering what kind of dream she was having, because I've been getting that falling sensation after a lucid ends lately. My husband got home at 9:30, so I went back to bed.

      My husband got home at 9:30, so I took a three hour nap (had to be up at 12:30 so I could write this and hopefully find my way into the chat for the dream view academy class.) I slept hard because the stomach ache is gone, not much to report on dreams, just more fragments.

      Dream Three: At some point I'm in a library, looking something up. At another point I'm looking at a house. It looks like a rendering n a computer or something because there's no ground around it. All I can see if the house (like a little fairy tail cottage of some sort) and two water walls. One water fall is to the back right of the house, and it forms a pool under that corner of the house that flows out through a tiny creek from the front of the house. The second waterfall is at the front left of the house, also forming a little pool under the house, and this time running out the back. The water falls are so identical, it looks like someone copy pasted them and just rotated them differently.

      Took another nap:

      Dream Four (fragment): I dreamed I was trying to fall asleep, but it was storming and there was a buffalo outside. Every time I'd start to drift off, the buffalo would ram into either the front or back door making a huge ruckus. My kids were terrified of the storm, so its not like I was nodding off very often. I had to LOL when I woke up, because sometimes real life feels like this, only instead of a buffalo ramming the doors, it's thoughts in my head refusing to be quiet and instead of my kids being afraid of a storm they just don't want to go to bed.

      by , 04-30-2012 at 05:35 AM (Adventures in Dreamland)
      I was at an anime convention, walking through a hotel

      I'm out in a forest, walking with a group of people. I think my irl sister is with me. We're trying to find a place to hide because a storm is coming. There is this old guy traveling with us, and he knows what to do. We find a sort of nature-house (out of like branches and stuff) that a lady is living in. She has a sign to repel cats on the door, but our cat ignores it and walks in anyway.

      I'm at my grandmother's old house, and she's out in the pasture working. I'm looking for her, but my sister lets me know where she is.
    12. Psychadelic Fever

      by , 04-29-2012 at 10:54 PM
      So I have had the flu this whole weekend. It's disturbed my sleep quite a bit and so my recall has been pretty lame as a result.

      One fragment:

      Everything is black. There are rainbow coloured outlines of a 3 dimensional house in my field of vision. This house folds down and reassembles into a differently shaped structure. It is in a constant state of change, flipping in an organized yet kaleidoscopic sort of way. I have no body. I am just watching this sequence unfold. For a while I am mesmerized. I have no feelings about it at all. Then for a second I think to myself "Wow this is beautiful" (shocked that it has taken me so long to notice) but before I could hang on that emotion I suddenly feel extremely disturbed by this complete shift in my perspective of reality as I do not know where "I" fit in this equation..What is "I"?

      Then I physically roll out of that dream, and right over into the next.

      This dream is not particularly visual. It feels like sinking, sinking, sinking... floating floating floating...

      Sinking forever...into my mattress. Never settling upon any stillness. Not being grounded, not having any point of physical reference. It makes me feel dizzy after a while. The materials of my bed have liquified around me. I transitioning through a portal. Still I cannot see but I can hear something: A repetitive, yet non consistent WHOOSHING sound. This sound indicates the speed at which I'm propelling through 'space'. It also alludes to the idea that I am coming in close contact with other physical things (or beings?) also in a state of projection. My body feels soooo heavy. The weight never lifts, it only presses on me harder as I sink deeper and deeper. I am powerless. I am at the mercy of something big.. Something my mortal mind will never comprehend.




      It's funny, just the other day I was wondering why my dreams are so visually oriented. It would be nice if I could incorporate more (if not all) of my senses.

      I'm down on the West Side of town and I walk into a two story house. once I walk in the door I notice I am in a basement and not sure how I got there I turn around and the door is gone. I hook my dog up to the bottom of the stairs. I then walk up the stairs to see a bunch of my family and friends down the hallway to my right and a bathroom to my left. I then feel some of my teeth are falling out....

      I am staring In a mirror and the top front half of my teeth are missing, and I kind of look like a snake...

      Now I am in the basement again and my dog has became rabid...

    15. 4-29-12

      by , 04-29-2012 at 04:51 PM
      Dream One (Fragments): I'm driving home on the interstate, watching the trees fly past me, marveling at how pretty and twisted they are. Then, the scene shifts completely and I'm watching this guy mowing lawns, he's on his cell phone calling other clients at the same time. Someone doesn't want him to come mow this week, so he starts raving about how if they don't cut their grass the rabid squirrels will invade their yard and they will be doomed! Then the scene changed again, and I', watching my friend T, who's gay, talk about working in a porn shop. I find it really odd that he's working in a place full of naked women. He's so smart he could do better, and being gay, it's not like the naked chic's perk is doing him any good.

      Dream Two (Fragments): The earliest point I can remember of this dream, I'm pulling my shirt up and looking at these nasty red lines on my sides that are going up from my hips to right below my rib cage. At first I assume they are stretch marks, but then I remember I don't have stretchmarks that look like this. Stretch marks are thin silver lines, and mine are all horizontal wrapping around my belly, these are vertical and at least a half inch thick. They look more like popped blisters, pink in the center and redder and redder as you get to the edge. They don't hurt at least. Felling like this is odd, I turn to the closest person, my husband, and ask what they are and what happened to me to get them. He refuses to tell me. I wander off in search of someone who will, and I walk into a room with a bed. Rini from Sailor Moon (Chibi Usa if you watch the subs I guess) is on the bed, and there's a man trying to inject her with something. I stop him, and I can't remember if I killed him or just wounded him badly and scared him off. I turn back to the bd, and Rini is acting really mean and evil. She sets a doll on the bed, and walks out of the room. I turn to look at the doll, and it looks like it moved! I get closer, and the doll isn't a doll, it's a baby with red pig tails. I wonder if it's Chibi Chibi from the episodes of sailor moon that didn't get dubbed, but I don't know because I've never seen them. How I failed to become lucid during this weird dream I don't know. I clearly knew something wasn't right with the lines, and I knew that Rini and Chibi Chibi were characters from Sailor Moon. I was aware of so much wrong, and yet didn't think to reality check. At least I can pinpoint what caused the second half of this dream. My daughter <3 s Sailor Moon, and we were watching the episodes where Rini was kidnapped and turned into Wicked Lady yesterday.

      Dream Three: I'm on the beach with my husband and two kids. My aunt is there too, playing with the kids. It's time to go home, so my husband and I gather up all our stuff. Our arms are full, and the kids are dragging their feet, so my aunt tells us to take our stuff to the car and not to wait up, she can handle the kids fine on her own. I'm cool with this because she wrangled me and my cousins pretty well when I was a kid! When I load up everything in the car, which turns out to be a blue SUV, I climb inside to wait in the shade. my husband starts the car and starts to leave. I fuss at him to wait, but he insists he's just moving the SUV closer so they don't have to walk as far. He ends up moving it farther away, and I'm mad because there's no way they're going to find the car here! I get out and start wandering around trying to find them, but the parking lot and beach are way different now. The parking lot is HUGE and there's a hotel between it and the beach, and the hotel is HUGE. I spend a great deal of time wandering, making this dream drag out but giving me little to write about. I see a lot of cosplayers around, and realize that this must be some sort of anime convention too. I wander to a point where they're doing construction. I can see the beach on the other side, but I can't get past the construction stuff, so I go inside the hotel beside it. I trip a few times. I try to push through crowds. At some point I wander into an indoor pool area. A creepy redneck guy in a red plaid shirt is looking at me funny and I'm alone. I turn around and leave that room as fast as I can. I get a text message from an ex-boyfriend from like 7 years ago, and he's telling me there's an anime convention in his hotel at the beach. I tell him I already know about the con, I'm there now. Finally I make it out of the hotel and see my kids on the beach with my aunt. There's a guy dressed as a clown there too, and he's got my daughter in his lap making silly face at her. My aunt is glad I'm there, she says the kids were terrified when they couldn't find us! I explain to her what happened, and that I have no idea where my husband and the car are. The last couple minutes of the dream, we're wandering as a group through the hotel trying to find our way back to the car.

      I was awake late last night, unable to fall asleep. When I finally did fall asleep, I slept really hard. Waking up only twice when I normally wake up at least 4 times a night. I'm definitely taking a nap today!
