BOB Token

I'm after a magic token buried in the lake. It is called a "BOB token" (maybe after Twin Peaks?)
It grants the user unlimited power.
I work at some pizza joint kind of place, and the founders were the last folks to use it years and years ago. They made their business, then buried it in a warded section of the lake in town.
I go at dark. It's easy enough to find. But I have to perform some kind of ritual to unlock it. Don't remember the specifics, but I'm busy underwater for a while..
Too long. Birdie, my wife's IWL coworker, swims toward me, trying to get it as well. Fuck.
I grab it and swim away. My wife is waiting for me and I tell her to SWIM, SWIM! THAT WAY! Not our planned route, just the most direct, easy way away down the river.
It is Easter tomorrow, and this town celebrates by sending Norwegian flags down the river on little boats. They're all over the water and we crash into them. I'm on my wife's back as she propels us through them and I hope they don’t hurt her.
We get to the shore. Birdie is not far behind us.
Then I realize.
My wife is against me. She's with Birdie. Fuck. They both want the token.
I pretend to not know and we go into a convenience store through a hole in the side of the building, thinking we're hiding from Birdie.
She comes in, then I run.
I have the token. I don't care. I'm invincible now.
I have no shoes. It is winter, and night out. I run through town. Some town, not real, but in the dream it is where we live. The streets are old cobblestone, full of mud and shit and snow and I get it all over my feet but I keep running.
Eventually I find our dog, Goose, and grab him and bring him with me. They're the enemy now and we are going to get out of this together.
I run through town with Goose and eventually stop to breathe. I've lost them. I have the token.
I'm outside a building. Record store / radio tower. We need a place to be, maybe they..? I look at the window and yes: apartment for rent. But it's scribbled out, already taken. But…
I become lucid, knowing suddenly that I can just decide to make it free if I act right.
We go in. The folks in the record store eye the dog, and my dirty feet, but whatever. I go up to the counter. One side is record store, one side is the radio tower dude. Their vibes are so different: nerdy vs punk. A customer in front of me finishes and I inquire about the apartment.
They say yeah, it's empty, the last person just left all their shit in there so you're free to use it for now, no charge if you want to help empty it.
Fuck yeah. They give me some keys. But where's the door? I wander the store, eventually find a stairwell near the entrance.
I go up… (The dog has disappeared from the dream now, lol)
It is very sketchy. Super low, unfinished ceiling. Attic vibes. Terribly ugly carpet. A set of washer and dryers are stashed in a corner. A super old jukebox. I marvel at the detail for a sec like I always do in dreams… my brain inventing this shit. Neat.
I find another small stairwell and then the apartment. It is a single room, no kitchen, no bathroom, insulation walls, no windows, yellow carpet, scary, ugly.
No thanks. I wander around instead, get lost in a maze of similar rooms. Kind of scary. Eventually find the way back down.
Outside, Taylor Swift is giving an interview.
I wake up.


Glitch World

I'm in a place similar to the last dream.
Cartoonish maze-like, video game-like world. Circular looping roads rise up through the sky, land on brightly colored platforms, repeat around. Many folks are doing this, like it is a museum piece. Not amusement park vibe, though.
I'm on one of the cars. It hits a huge white cartoon building and falls from the tracks, down into cartoon cloud sky abyss… my dream fear. Abyss, falling.
Oh. But I'm dreaming! It's ok. I'm still afraid but talk myself into confidence and just hover, then fly up to the buildings again.
Flying! Yes! My goals. The comp. Let's do it. I can remember my 3 step goals.
1. Flying. Got it.
2. Eat dream food. Ok!
I land on top of the structures, which on the very top are covered in sparse vegetation. From this height, I can see they all go on for infinity in this massive white space. I look at the little flowers growing… that doesn't look edible, lol. Small purple lavender-like buds, dandelions. Umm. Hm.
Oh! I'll try to manifest something. I put my hands behind my back and think "APPLE!" and.. Nothing. I do it again, nothing. Ok. I'll just eat these weird flowers.
I keep walking and find something that looks like a huge radish pushing out of the ground. Perfect. I pull it out and it is actually an apple growing out of the ground. Funny how dream intentions work.
I take a bite… Ew. It is mushy, like a super soft apple but no sweetness. Well, at least the task is done.
I keep walking, looking at the flowers and enjoying the weird cartoon dreamscape. Then on one of the building tops I see an ancient machine, kind of like a retro car but covered in neon green spaceship lights. Super derelict and run down. Cool! I begin to fly over, but then I remember my other goal, and my current personal goal.
3. Teleport!
I don't really know what to try now. I failed just trying with what makes sense to me, kind of imagine-running-starting toward it, close my eyes.. Some force of will… But I do that again. I almost feel something push, but I open my eyes and haven't moved. Damn. My other idea is to summon an item, a staff maybe, or find something to help me.. But I really feel pulled to keep trying the blink/push move. And fail again.

1. Volume (LD)
I'm laying in bed and notice that Bran is sitting up next to me. He appears to be voice recording his dreams, yet seems to be sleep talking. This doesn't make sense Nose pinch. I'm lucid. I head from the large bedroom and into the hallway. I see that I'm in Meadow main house. I fly over the balcony and slowly descend to the floor below. I decide to explore the back area as opposed to the front and turn to head through the main hallway. I decide to go for a cat transformation and shrink down. I quickly shrink down and begin running on all fours. I revert to humanoid form head down a bit further, then decide to shrink back down even smaller. I see my field of vision shrink down once again, I begin running on all fours, and hear a can meow come from me as I run into the kitchen. I jump onto the counter top ahead of me next to a what appears to be a slat shaker, then jump back down, reverting to humanoid form. I figure I'll basic summon a chocolate bar before exploring. I turn to the cabinet next to the fridge expecting it to be in the usual spot. I reach inside and quickly find a pristine white Lindt bar. I grab it and walk toward the lounge room. I see mom and dad lounging on the couch and hear the volume to a show turned up. I figure I can use some electronics, but don't hear any music I can adjust. I figure I can just expect it to be playing from the computer. I head closer, hear some coming from the computer, then crank up the volume with the dial. I reflect on how I used to avoid family in lucids, but feel like interacting. I walk around the side, pat dad on the shoulder
"How are you guys doing? Want some?" I ask showing him the chocolate bar. I begin to eat a few bites of the Lind Bar
Dad "That's not yours"
I'm about to explain that it's a dream and it doesn't matter, yet don't know how he'll react. Instead, I just tell him that I bought it. He seems to chill a bit and takes a piece. I then turn and fly through the sliding glass into the back. I consider where to explore, and decide I should teleport. I take another bite and go to mass TK a large tree. It doesn't work on my first attempt however. I fly forward and go to teleport by phasing into ta wall. I wake up.


2. Cherry Ice-Cream (LD)
I become aware as the scene of an outdoor shopping area forms. There's a large three story building with tan walls far in the distance and a couple people walking in front. The scene doesn't feel fully stable yet. Time to engage the dream to stabilize it I rush forward and care to my right, quickly making my way up a large stone staircase. I begin to take flight and soar higher up above the staircase as it turn to the right. I notice a massive structure with purple walls - a mansion of sorts. I consier some dream goals. I should to the teleport for the three step. I'll grab something to eat first. I soar over a set of metal bars to my right, into the area beyond. There's a room set into the side of the structure via an open doorway. I make my way inside and it's seems dingy and deserted - it's essentially an empty concrete room. I expect to find some ice-cream on raise concrete platform in the back of the room. I don't find any there however, yet quickly spot two small appliances that seem to be freezers to the side of the room. I figure I'll find ice-cream inside of one. I open up the one to the right and notice a couple of small Styrofoam dishes with lids. I grab one from the bottom and head back toward the entrance as I take the lid off and scoop some of the frosty ice-cream with my hand. I taste it and it has a mellow cherry flavor to it - it's really good! The dream begins to feel a bit hazy. It's a good time for a teleport. I fly right into the concrete wall to my left, phasing inside. I begin to imagine Haven, yet wake up.

I had the swamp dream early in the night, but as the night continued with other dreams I noticed that I had already forgotten what happened there. To still have something to write about, I stopped everything in the current dream to get to a swamp. I got myself to a small airfield and found a pilot to have him fly me over to the nearest swamp. He agreed and we went flying in his small passenger plane. It had about 6 seats in the back and I was there with one other person. We passed the time talking about rumors of the area and how to survive in the swamp.

I got up to speak with the pilot more directly and saw the swamp covering the land in all directions. While wondering where we’d land, the plane shook and one of the engines exploded. Looking to see what caused it, a log was lodged into the engine and wing. I opened the door to get a better look below us and more sharpened logs were thrown up at the plane. I tried to warn the pilot but one of the logs already pierced through the plane and into him. I tried taking control of the plane but it was impossible to save. Seeing that the plane was going to crash, I told the other passenger that our only chance of surviving was jumping out, and jumped out myself.

After slamming into the trees I saw nothing. Not sure if I died or went blind, I tried moving and eventually rose out of muddy water. I wanted to find the plane crash and assumed I could use the smoke or fire from the crash to find it, but the swamp was too dense with trees and plants to see it. After wandering around enough, I figured it would make sense to search for food and shelter. All of the surrounding swamp was covered in mud and water, so the best shelter I could find was a large tree with its roots rising above the ground. Using sticks and mud the roots were made into walls, with the area below the tree becoming shelter.

With that solved, I went out looking for what could serve as food. I usually have other people around in dreams, so there was a bit of a lonely feeling with going this long without dcs. I ran into many bugs flying around and considered using them as food, but they were too small. There were also no obviously edible plants, at least no fruits or recognizable vegetables. I started flipping rocks over and looking through plants, and eventually found a huge toad. Finally finding one chance for food, I immediately went to punch it. It hopped out of the way and started a chase that probably would look funny from an outsider’s perspective.

Since it was too fast I kept picking up rocks to throw at it and it ran for the muddy water. It jumped in and right as I thought it escaped, a fish jumped out and bit it in half. While still in the air, I threw one of the rocks at its head. It was knocked out, leaving me with a huge fish and half a toad. Although unexpected, it left me with even more food. Heading for my shelter with the food, I realized I did not know how to create a fire to cook them. By this point I had been talking to myself for a while. After a couple attempts to make fire I ultimately decided to just eat them raw. After securing both food and shelter I decided it was enough for a first night. Hopefully I don’t get dream worms next time.

Asleep around midnight. Awake around 6:00-6:30, having trouble getting back to sleep.

Fragment 1: Lurkers

Something about the game Lurkers.io. Trying to carry a bomb from the right side of the screen to the left.

Asleep again some time after 7:00, I’m guessing.

Fragment 2: Lab Work

In the lab, doing something.

Bathroom Lucid (Lucid)

Some things about robots. Someone activated a sort of attack/defense robot, and there is something going on with it. Then someone is talking about a time when a creepy child-looking entity showed up and was at his elbow.

Later, we are walking along with an android, that says it has to use the bathroom. It is carrying around a large glass flask of some liquid, which it wants to go empty in a restroom. We get to where we were going, and the robot goes downstairs to where a restroom is. I decide that I want to go too, and follow him. The restroom is possibly one that I had visited before (or dreamed that I had), but it is now the future and I’m looking to see what changes have been made.



Around this point, I also seem to be aware that I’m dreaming, but it’s one of those dreams where I seem to have just been kind of vaguely assuming it was a dream – almost like dreaming that I knew it was a dream instead of actually being lucid. However, when I find a stall in a restroom, I actually become lucid. I remember the 3-step task. First, I do a reality check/stabilization by looking at my hand and counting the fingers. Not surprisingly, I have trouble counting. I think about using the bathroom, but then I realize that that would be a waste of lucid dreaming time since I can use the bathroom when I’m awake. I start walking out of the bathroom, and remember the second of the three step task: eat/drink something. It doesn’t really matter what, since it’s a dream, so I look around for something that I can try to eat. I think I try some small cardboard or plastic box at first, but have a little trouble. Then I find a small plastic pouch, which I might “will” into containing a sort of soapy liquid inside. I bite into this and swallow some of the liquid. Surprisingly, it seems to have a strong and a terrible taste, making me gag and want to vomit. I’m a bit worried that I didn’t fully swallow it though, so I choke down another swallow.

I think I might lose my lucidity around here somewhere. I find myself walking back from somewhere, outside now. I remember having had a lucid dream, but I think I'm awake. At another point I think I’m going back to a bathroom. There is some strange guy around crying about something – he is looking for help, but doesn’t seem to be quite normal. I want to go hide in the bathroom.

Something about going into the mouth of a large fish. There is some sort of TV show – hosted by Jerry Lewis, apparently. But this might just be a documentary about the show. Inside the fish’s mouth is a small auditorium.

Spring Competition - Night 1

1. Syrano Shifting (LD)
I walk toward the doorway leading to the central area of the main house in Syrano. It's quite dim. Something doesn't seem right... I'm lucid. Sweet! Competition time - I'll start my three step. I go to fly, yet feel a strong gravitation force resisting. I walk forward a couple of steps, and lift right off. I fly to the right and phase through the sliding glass door, heading out onto the lanai. I turn to phase into the wall to my right, phase fully inside and my vision goes black. I don't want to teleport yet, so I phase back onto the lanai. I figure I should head into an area with a bit more room to transform and and simply fly up through the ceiling and end up in an upper area with metal beams constituting a walkway of sorts. I consider what to transform into and decide on a mouse. I shrink down and begin running across one of the metal beams, feeling my front legs in front of me. As I skitter across, I hear a small mouse shriek. I decide to revert to humanoid form, and notice how my vision raises up many feet as my dream body enlarges. I fly forward to the end of the area with the beams and enter a sprawling indoor mall area. There is a row of trees to my right, and the trees become progressively larger the closer they are to the escalator in the distance. I see several shops in the far distance, similar to ones I've seen before in Syrano mall area. Time for some super strength. I fly forward and go to rip out the first tree, yet decide that it's too small. I head a bit farther, yet notice leaves that look like poison ivy on the trunk of the next tree. I hear the dream warning me not to touch the leaves. l heed the warning, progressing down to the next tree, yet see more poisonous type leaves. I head one farther down, grab it and tear it out of the ground with ease. I then pick it up and chuck it at the massive trunk of an enormous tree on the edge of the walkway, overlooking the first floor below. It doesn't knock it over, however. I'll just tear that one out I go over to the enormous tree, bear hug it, and rip the entire thing out of the ground. The roots are exposed, facing me, and I shove the entire thing over the balcony. Alright, let's do some basic summoning and eating I turn toward the restaurant area and see what appears to be an ice-cream shop as well as some type of Italian restaurant just to the right with an illuminated sign. Several people are in the central walkway. I begin flying toward the ice-cream shop, yet wake up.


2. Meadow Tree (LD)
I'm aware as the kitchen in the main house in Meadow begins to appear. I see the counter in front of me as well as mom. Time to engage to stabilize this. I rush forward, pass mom, and head into the corner cabinet to grab a bar of chocolate. I find a plastic baggy with a small bar inside and begin eating it. The dream is still a bit hazy. I fly toward the front of the house and phase through the front doors. I'm standing in the front of the house in the twilight hours, and begin to look up toward the sky. The dream begins to feel a bit more stable. I'll explore the back area a bit more actually. I'll basic summon some more chocolate and eat it as that was a bit hazy.. I phase back into the house, fly toward the kitchen once again, and look in the corner cabinet. I don't see any bars, so I look in the cabinet next to the fridge where I usually find bars. I quickly find a bar on the right side in a plastic bag. I grab it, open it and begin eating yet, yet it has a bit of a cheesy flavor. I float up and phase through the window above the sink, heading into the backyard. I figure I can just imagine the flavor becoming a bit more chocolatey and it does slightly. I see a tree in the corner of the yard and a large terrace where the neighboring house is. I wonder how it got constructed recently. I move forward a bit and decide to ground. I stick my right hand out, slow down, and take three, slow deep breaths. I see a silver ring on my right hand as usual. I go to use mass telekinesis on a large clock structure on the top of the terrace, yet it doesn't budge. I turn toward a neighboring terrace, setting to use mass TK once again, yet the massive structure don't budge to my surprise. I turn toward a tree to my right, rip the tree out of the ground and chuck it roughly thirty meters to my left, launching it over a terrace. I turn to the right and see a large structure in the distance. I decide to start flying toward it, then consider super speed, yet the dream becomes dark quickly. I don't want to risk speeding into darkness and destabilizing. I figure I'll head toward some light, yet as I turn I notice that the other part of the yard is dark as well. I figure I'll just phase into the wall and teleport to Haven. I phase fully into the wall and begin imagining Haven Peaks. I begin to wake up.

I used wild to enter the dream.

I felt my body floating as I transitioned into sleep, it felt like I was floating upward as visuals started to appear, it was Minecraft again. The terrain was unnatural and there were layers of floating land masses that were built using a single layer of dirt at various heights.





There was an unrecognizable song playing as I was floating, I couldn't control the melody, but I was in control of the vocals. It was euphoric. "I will remain calm" I injected into the song's lyrics. I didn't want to wake up from excitement.

I landed on one the highest floating blocks and began running forward, jumping to new blocks I looked down and could see my legs, they looked like my normal legs I noticed. I could feel my excitement growing as I continued running. I wanted to calm down a bit more, so I decided to turn around and see what was there.

As soon as I did though, everything went black, and I could now feel body hallucinations as I became aware of my body. I opened my eyes and could see through my eyes as I was lying in bed and couldn't move, I thought this was a false awakening because the light was on in my room and I left it off, I was still disturbed because I couldn't move and closed my eyes again to finally wake up.


Note: I need to stop derailing my dreams before they become grounded.

I'm aware as I'm on the couch in Syrano. I stand up and begin to walk, yet the dream feels a bit hazy. I go to fly, yet feel a heavy gravitational pull. I make my way around the couch an float upward a bit, heading down the hall. I feel the dream is destabilizing, so I drop down and begin to rub the ground in circles with my hands and legs. I maintain for a moment, hoping that the dream will simply continue, then feel that a new scene is about to form. I soon find myself in a large grassy yard in the daytime. There's a brown fence in the distance and the area looks somewhat similar to the yard behind Meadow main house. I float toward the fence, happy to be lucid. I fly upward, curve to the right and see a brick structure in the distance, slightly to the left of the Dark Woods. I fly in its direction and see there's a space between two structures. I fly through and enter a large outdoor area, between several large brick structures in what appears to be a slightly urban area with some type of mini resort to the right. As I do so, the song Sunflower begins playing and I feel a sense of energy and happiness just exploring the lucid environment. I begin thinking about practicing some dream control. I see a balcony on a building to the right that appears to have palm trees and a lounge area. I decide to fly down toward it, then quickly phase through the wall and enter a large room that appears to be a classroom. I land and quickly do a transformation to a mouse, then revert to humanoid form. I begin thinking about the dream control I've been doing and how many points each element would be, adding them up. Many young students, who area about five years old, are working on various projects at their desks. I figure I'll practice some basic summoning and eat something. I look on the teacher's desk for a chocolate bar, yet don't see any. I decide to go for invisibility. I snap my fingers, go invisible, and walk in front of the teacher to see if she'll notice me. Her eyes look right past me as I approach her. She then appears as if she may be looking at me, so I ask her directly:
"Where do you keep your chocolate?"
She then points at some documents on her desk and explains that they should be around them. I look underneath several white documents, yet don't find any. I look in the first drawer and fully expect to find a bar underneath a few white papers and envelopes. I quickly find a bar in a plastic bag. I take it out, walk forward a bit, and take a bite. It tastes great! I make my way to the far end of the room and exit the area. I make my way into a neighboring room and a notice that one of the young students with dark skin follows me into the room. I snap, go invisible, and he walk past me. After a moment, the boy passes by me and the dream begins to feel as though it's fading. I maintain awareness and soon pop up in a building and make my way outside. I see some large structure to my right that appear to be a mix of construction equipment and play equipment as well as a large silver building in front of me. I decide to practice some mass telekinesis. I go to raise the equipment and two massive pieces easily lift up from the ground. I turn from the area, fly toward the silver building, and phase inside. I'm in a central hallway with light gray walls and quickly make my way into a shop area to the left with several women working. There's a tall woman with blonde hair to the right as well as two shorter women with brunette hair to the left. I decide to find out Norzz's full name. I ask the tall lady, yet she doesn't have a solid answer. I then ask one of the other women.
"What's Norzz's full name?"
Lady: "Norzz'jyagerie"
She explains that the name has components of the name Elijah and another name in it. I begin looking around for something to eat, yet don't discover anything. I wonder if there's anything else in here that I'd want to do, yet don't find anything. I walk further down in the room and look at the face of one of the women. It soon transforms into a narrow, golden nozzle. I ignore it and begin to head into the next area which has gray walls with an open area in the ceiling just ahead. I transform into crow form, feeling various aspects of my body and work on tucking my back legs in. I flap my wings and pass through the opening in the ceiling. I soar into an outdoor area, reverting to humanoid form. I wake up.

The dream began where I was in an OTD hospital. I think I was recovering from something though I felt fine and could more around. I was being kept in this barren stertile room near the back of the hospital. It seems to be just a big square room that sort of juts out the back of the building with windows on three sides. There are vinyl tiles and incandescent lights. The room looks to be a storage space for old hospital beds and random equipment that is out of date, but it is mostly empty.

I go stand by the window. I see a large machine next to me. A big light gray metal box. It surrounded by a tall chain link fence. It is making a lot of noise, rumbling and then whining like a jet engines. There are exaust pipes on it shooting out streams of fire and electrical transformer equipment with electricity arcs coming between the various components. I get the sense that whatever machine this is (my first instinct is to say it was a generator for the hospital) was being pushed way past its intended load. I notice that it seems to sort of stop and start, not like the machine is failing but like somebody keeps switching it on and off.

...

I am with a small skeleton crew on a stolen Scirocco class cruiser. Our mission is to steal another such ship of the same class, though we only have maybe half a dozen people crewing our ship. Our ship is also painted jet black compared to the other one which has its orange markings. We have a lot of insider information on the MCRN including these fake ID chips/cards we can use to access their ships and technology. We pull up near to the ship, which is just floating there in deep space, and send fake voice communications about needing to dock to transfer prisoners. The other ship buys this at first.

I get into a boarding pod and when we get up close they launch me over. But as I'm flying over the boarding pod is shot but I jump out. I'm outside in the complete vacuum of space but I am at least semi lucid so I just sort of float over to the airlock of the ship we want to board. I get there and swipe the ID card on the card reader. It accepts it but tells me I must type in a four digit pin on a little keypad. Our plan didn't account for this extra layer of security. I type 1-2-3-4 on the pad just to see if it will work and it doesn't.

The enemy ship realizes what we are trying to do and rockets away, probably pulling several g's. Our ship flips over and does the same. Boosters on, I fly after the both of them. I start gaining on them but my flight seems to be stuck in a lower gear. Then both ships make an abrupt turn bout 150 degrees. Turning around but not quite coming right back at me. I flip over and blast back the other way. They are flying alongside each other, exchanging missiles and PDC fire with each other but mostly not doing any damage to one another. I fly up to the enemy ship and grab on near the engine section, climbing into a gap between the armor and the drive cone.

I squeeze through a couple of claustrophobic spaces between machinery and stuff until I find an important looking power coupling. Its basically a big circular plug maybe about 15 centimeters across. Pulling it takes all of my strength, especially since I can't get a good grip on it with the thing I want to remove being a big slippery metal cylinder but I get it done and the ship stops running.

...

I am in my current neighborhood at somewhere along my jogging route. It is nighttime. I am fully lucid now though my lucidity has gradually been building through the previous scenes. I say out loud to myself something to the effect of.

"This will be a practice run for the competition. Competitions give the most points for dream control so I just need to do dream control feats as quickly as possible to get points."

I do stabilization first, rubbing my hands together and touching grass along the side of the sidewalk to crank up the vividness of the dream. I also verbally command for the dream to increase in stability. This gives a small result, though not much.

I notice that it is dark, twilight/nighttime. I decide to change it to day.

"Set time to day." I command.

The sun rises in the south over the course of about fifteen seconds. The sky turns some really beautiful shades of cyan and magenta.

"Okay now I will fly."

I lift off on my rocket boosters. I check to confirm the visual is still there since it disappears sometimes. The visual is there. I just sort of fly in a circle above the street and then land at the same spot. The dream scene changes to my childhood neighborhood.

"Okay now I will summon something."

I dont even have an idea of what I want to summon. I just reach behind myself and expect to grab hold of something. I bring it back around and get a rusty steel pipe maybe an inch thick and a meter or so long. Its heavy but I can hold it with one hand. I drop it in the street and it makes a loud clank.

I think I will next use my barrier power but I woke up here.

I woke up from a non lucid dream, all i remembered was i in my underwear fixing something for some reason. I could sense that i would be able to enter a lucid dream, remaining still I ignored the bursts of ringing and eventually my body begin to drift

Visuals begin to appear as i remained drifting and floating, I was now in a large square corridor with a wooden roof and tacky wallpaper. Im close enough to the ceiling so i reach my hand to feel the roof, to my surprise my hand passed straight through it, like in vr. I then poked my head through the ceiling. It passed through as well, my head clipped through it and i could see through the ceiling as if looking through a texture out of bounds in a game. I lowered my head back down and continued to drift for a short time.

The dream began to fade out and instead of worrying about it I imagined a song I like, focusing on the music made the dream stable again and i could now see the end of the corridor, it led to a dark outdoor parking lot.



I was empowered with confidence as i floated outside. I descended to the ground and began strutting towards a car I saw moving.

They stopped the car when I looked at them, I couldnt make out any figure driving as it was too dark.
"Show me the dream navigator!" I gesture point and swinging my arm for them to get out of the car. No response, i pull the door open only to reveal my two cats in the driver seat. Amused and laughing I enter the car.



They jump into the passenger seat and I reach over to close the door
I see duplicates of my cats outside the car. As soon as i close the door the dream fades to black and i wake up.

Note: the "dream navigator" is my attempt at making a Dream character who is aware of me dreaming and can tell me where to go or what to do. So far I'm unsuccessful.

I entered the dream using WILD. With my eyes closed I began to feel a very comforting flowing and swooshing sensation over my whole body. I thought to myself it felt like I was drifting through water. Pixel art of a waterfall engulfed my vision and I immediately felt myself falling under water. Looking up I could see small land masses made up of cubes. "Oh boy another Minecraft dream..."



I was still falling and sinking deeper in the water and I began to look up and down 3 times to confirm that the dream was stable. I willed myself to float upward, just below the surface of the water now looking directly at the underside of the blocks I imagined what it was like to walk on grass blocks and I just as I imagined, I floated up to the land and then onto the grass finally.



I had to contain my excitement as I could see some wood logs, they were probably 4x the normal texture of Minecraft wood, the water was now gone leaving only land. "What if I just play normal Minecraft in my dream?" I began to mine the blocks, once the log brock the a image of the block replaced the one I broke, like a recursive screen shot every time I broke it, it got smaller. I still got the wood though. "Alright let's make a crafting table"

I attempt to open my inventory but instead I opened the menu of the game and I could see some text about this being a mod-pack. "What am I even doing, playing Minecraft in a dream isn't even fun.." I began to fade and I could now sense my body, suddenly I felt swooshing body sensations along with a pressure in my chest. I imagined putting my finger in my mouth and it felt real, but when I opened my eyes, I could clearly see my hand wasn't there and I was staring at the wall I fell asleep looking at. I closed my eyes and let the sensations pass and woke.

Note: anyone know how to make gifs work?

Summoning F:
I'm at my Grandma M's condo in the kitchen. There are a few of my family members there too.
I notice there is a game on the table relating to prospective memory.
I recall that I've been working on prospective memory for my lucid dreaming practice.
I perform a nose reality check and become lucid.
I try and summon F, but it doesn't work. I recall that sometimes it is easier to summon using a door.
I leave the kitchen and go to the laundry room, shutting the door behind me. I imagine F standing in the living room.
I open the door.
It works. She is there. Either my family is gone now, or I simply ignore them entirely.
I go over to start some naughty stuff. I feel the dream stability "shake" when we embrace, but it doesn't fall apart. I feel relieved about that.
...
I've lost lucidity by now. I'm in a downtown city area underneath a highway. I'm with F, looking for somewhere to continue.
I notice that there are cameras all over the bottom of the highway above us and tell her this is too public.
F is now a man wearing a trenchcoat, and the story changes such that he is my buddy cop partner or similar.

Rude:
I'm in an elevator filled with water in an inner tube. I'm with a bunch of other people also in inner tubes and wearing bathing suits.
This is some kind of ride at an amusement park. Over an intercom, a man announces that we will be racing the 1st years.
I get excited and sarcastically say outloud to the group "WE'RE GONNA CRUSH THOSE KIDS!"
One other person and me get pulled aside and removed from the race. Apparently this was unsportsmanlike conduct.

Dream recall increasing from journalling more. Yay!

Dog wtf

Dream of seeing my dog again. He was barking at me again. His mouth looked funny again. It reminded me of the previous dream when he looked like that, but I didn't think to do an RC.

Jamie 1

Flash of me and Jamie walking away from my house that I was in when I was renting the basement suite in 2011. We were arm in arm. My vision zoomed out in 3rd person perspective. It was night time, and we both looked semi anime. We also were smiling and looked kind of dazed.

Mirror

I was staring out of a window. I noticed my reflection. I was a girl though and I slightly resembled Jamie... I had spots on my face, like sick with the measles or something. My vision zoomed in and the spots were really sweat drops discoloring my skin. I looked away and looked back and now I was my normal self but still sweating. I was wondering how sick I was.

Jamie 2

I was in a large store like a Sears or something. Asuka was behind me and Jamie was beside me. We were walking on the tile path between the wall and a clothing section when a really short blond girl blocked my path. Some music started playing while we were talking and for some reason we started dancing. But I was confused about which hand should go where. I switched hand positions a couple of times. I then remembered that I was with Jamie, and I shouldn't be doing anything to make her jealous. ( only problem with my dream state I'm like a drunk guy and everything I do is impulsive). I leave the girl and find Jamie sitting on the floor on the edge of the clothing section. Asuka is just in the background watching. I sit down in front of Jamie, she still looks semi anime, she's staring into space and is smiling. I try talking to her but she hardly replies. I grab her hands and stand up. She stands up with me. I think asuka was using a song spell on Jamie or something when I was talking to the girl to trance her out from noticing, or being jealous. Maybe the song spell made me sober to think of Jamie as well.

Next night

Terrorists

I was in a town that reminded me of Red deer. I was walking into a store when I noticed a bunch of Arab looking guys in black bullet proof vests carrying large guns go into a bank across the street. I go into the store and warn everyone in there to quickly leave the store and that I seen people with guns. I hear a bunch of gunshots and I leave the store. The Arab guy keeping 6 makes direct eye contact with me. I pretend I don't notice and quickly enter a glass door leading into the hallway that goes to the other end of the shopping plaza..l I exit into a residential area and keep walking.

Last night.

Moving in together

Jamie asks me to move in with her (her exact words). But when I move in it sucks. Jamie doesn't talk to me at all. I remember eating at a dinner table with her and her parents... Maybe siblings? I'm given my own room. I keep passing Jamie in the hallways but she never looks at me. This seems to go on for a day or two and I'm considering just moving out, since I feel like a complete stranger there.

Dog

I'm in the backyard of a house by a garden. I see my dogs dad (who we put down years ago) he's a large and intimidating rottweiler. I think it's strange he should be around. He growls and runs past me, one of his hind paws is mangled. I noticed smoke by some plants and notice a small fire when I get there. I have to pee and consider putting it out that way. I try to but the my jeans get caught on some thorn bushes. I wake up.

Semi lucid

Prelude: I dream I am laying in bed. Jamie is talking to me as a voice in my head. I tell her I'm meeting up with Raven in a dream and we are going to see some cool dream place, I invite Jamie along. Jamie says in my head that she's going to put on something special for the occasion.

***

I'm on a motorbike and stop at some hobby place. I go inside to reserve a table for the people coming (Raven, Jamie, maybe asuka). Inside the place people are playing cards and chess. I notice a piano in the corner and make a mental note to talk to the owner about tuning the piano and leaving some cards, since I just got certification in piano tuning and repair.

I slap my jacket over the table to reserve it and leave. Outside is no longer a street, but a huge Campus. I walk through a few large buildings on the campus, I walk by a room with ridiculously large bleachers inside.

Outside I meet up with my group. A hooded lady, who looks like she's going to a cosplay convention. Two golems, the clay made into man, kind. A lady wearing wearing a blue wig with a large braid hung over one shoulder she introduced herself as "Samantha." Or something (Asuka). I say I reserved a table in a game room where we can play cards or chess. The two golems shrug and agree that could be fun.

I begin walking through the campus again with the group. After sometime, the two golems are walking ahead of me, and that's when I hear Jamie call my name. I looked behind me, and she's barely even dressed. She's wearing a golden bra with sparkles on it. She walks past me and she's only also wearing a g string of the same color. On her waist is a thin gold chain with a blue veil mesh which barely covers even the top of her.... Box. The tips of her hair are blond. She turns her head around and smiles at me, asking with her eyes if I like what I see, then walks beside the Two golems.

It then clicks in. I remembered the conversation in my head with her, when she said she was going to wear something special . For the bedroom yes, but for chess club? I'm about to follow them through the door when " Samantha," distracts me and starts talking to me. Then I open the door but the hobby/game place is gone and it's the room with the strange bleachers.

I run outside and look for my group. I give up after a while and fly atop some pole sign. I turn and see Samantha again with her blue hair. She seems to be trying to cheer me up from losing the group. I notice she's wearing stilts to reach the height of the pole sign. I say, "You know this is a dream right? You don't have to wear those, just fly up." But she vanishes. Then I notice her below on the grass waving at me. She teleported.

I shrug it off and fly away. I notice people on one of the ledges of the campus building. They are waving at me and calling for help. But I keep flying. Then I notice more people need help. I fly to them to rescue them. They are no longer people. Just mouths stuck on the ledges, they are just lying there calling for help. I go to pick a mouth up then it vomits on my hand. I stare at the mouth and it seemingly dies like when a bee loses it's stinger. I go to grab another one but the same thing happens. The stench is getting to me. I almost begin to vomit myself when I wake up.

I'm in my room checking my work schedule. As I'm looking at it to see what days I'm working and more importantly who I'll be working with to avoid. I noticed that the schedule kept changing so ever slightly. I began rechecking and realized I looked at it wrong the first time. Then it happened again and went back to what it was originally in the beginning. "Is my mind playing tricks on me" I said before seeing the letters change their shape and size in front of my own eyes.

I backed up and quickly came to the conclusion that this was a dream. I smiled and thought about what I should do and decided to simply explore. I opened the front door of my apartment and made my way through the hallway. As I was walking I could still hear the same dog that would bark loudly outside from the other apartment unit as in real life. I analyze the realistic details although slightly more wooden as the hallway compared to waking life is more modern.

I lived on the 3rd floor and didn't want to go down all the stairs, so I leap from the exposed ceiling roof tops and started hopping to each floor till I made it to the ground. Once I was there I could see people sitting down and eating as if I made it to an outside restaurant. I went over and saw people that I deemed friendly and pulled a chair next to them. I asked them how they were doing and wouldn't get any intelligent response.

I tried more socializing till the dream scene changed to a different place. The lights were dark red and I was sitting on a big couch. Not long after that I woke up.

I woke up and checked my phone to see if I had more time to fall back asleep. Only to be shocked that it stated 1:51 pm. "This can't be" I said before checking to see why my alarm didn't go off. I began to panic, realizing that I am late for work and there was no way I'd make it to work early enough where no one would notice. "Something is wrong, this isn't making any sense to me" I continue to stare at the phone and decided to start looking around.

"This has to be a dream, it has to be. I don't care how real this feels, I know I must be dreaming" But still nothing would confirm or reveal itself to be an illusion. So I decided that I'm done with this and found any way possible to wake myself up so that I can check to see if I truly overslept or not. I closed my eyes and tried my best to wake up. It took awhile before anything felt like it was happening. I eventually woke up.
