Cay's Dreams
-I was on the bus, on a side road that branches off of the main one, which we go down to drop off a couple of kids. Suddenly, the bus came to a screeching halt. People fell out of their seats. We were herded off the bus and into an open trailer, which would seem to be made to accomodate cattle, except for the handrails that resembled those on either side of an escalator. J.G. stood at the front like a tour guide, and cordially informed us that we were going to "experience meat processing first hand".

-I was attending some school dance. I left earlier than planned, and I'm pretty sure I changed clothes in full view somewhere. Time skip. People were at my house, many of whom I didn't know; in fact, the only ones I recognized among them S.G., D.M., D.Cl., and D.B. I guess it might've been a sort of party. I stayed in my room most of the time.

-I was on some sort of racing cart with Azra and D.R. I was steering, Azra was in charge of acceleration/deceleration, and D.R. just waved a flag at the back, and shouted rude things at the other racers as we wound through a mucky, wet, mostly brick city that from the accents of the competitors I suspected was in England.

-I was at my brother's and sister-in-law's again, as I had been the preceding evening. I played with the baby a bit, and wrestled with the dog. The television was turned to an unfamiliar news channel. I heard without really listening, "I lost myself, I lost myse-e-elf...." then my ears pricked up as the anchorwoman began with "Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke, 42, died at 12:50 PM today when his flight bound for..." "Dude, what?!" I cried, waking the baby, who cried in turn. "...Yorke was a cult icon who will surely be mourned this evening worldwide." The broadcast ended with the end of "Last Flowers"- "...too bright, too powerful..." and the fading image of Yorke at a piano.

Judging Restaurants at the Mall

I went to the mall to eat lunch. There were several places open, but I had my eyes on two of them in particular. Both were Chinese restaurants. The one I selected didn’t have a line. When I looked at the food on display, I was a little disgusted… I couldn’t even tell what it was, much less what to order. I asked the woman working there what certain foods were and what she recommended, but in the end, her suggestions weren’t very helpful. I just ordered a couple of things at random and hoped for the best. The total came out to $20 exactly.

The dream jumped. I came back to the mall for dinner. I recalled that my lunch experience earlier had been terrible, so I definitely wasn’t going back to that first place… I went to the second of the two restaurants I’d been interested in. There was a much longer line here, so I assumed the food was good, but after I paid for my food and started eating, I realized it was no better than the first place. I ate it anyway so I wouldn’t waste the money.

The dream jumped. I was back at the mall for yet another meal. This time, I decided to look at some of the restaurants I glossed over before. There was a place that reminded me of Sbarro in the back of the food court. I sat down in their restaurant and looked at the short menu. It seemed fairly simple… The menu just listed a number of sizes for various things and prices. I decided to get a really big burger.

The dream jumped. I was in Nicole’s room with a plush Scooby Doo head. There was a hole in the neck, but we couldn’t figure out why. It reminds me of those toy horses with the sticks coming out of their heads. Nicole and I inspected the Scooby Doo head for a while, sticking our fingers in the hole… I finally came up with an idea, but I doubted it was what the designer had in mind. It was too awkward to even suggest it.

Searching for an Old Town Restaurant

I was driving through an old part of town by a dirty river. Austin Hill and Alex rode in my parents’ car with me and Nicole. Our objective was a restaurant on a side road somewhere, but we had a lot of trouble finding it. We stopped the car twice to check the address and look around a parking lot. For some reason, I opened the trunk and sat back there. I didn’t bother closing it.

I ended up in the convertible with Nicole driving. Austin was driving my parents’ car. We never closed the trunk, but I kept forgetting to remind him to do that. We drove by a hookah lounge, and Austin and Alex insisted on driving up for a better look. I noticed that they even had equipment set up outside with tables. Since it was so late at night, though, everything was closed. We drove around the back and found a KFC hidden in an alley. Following the road back up, we came to an intersection. Austin decided to back up and go through the parking lot instead. He made it back onto the busy street before we did since we had to turn.

The traffic lights were messed up, too. Our left turn arrow kept flashing on, going off, flashing on, going off… When the light turned yellow, it finally went on and stayed that way. I was relieved that Nicole hadn’t crashed her mom’s car. We met up with Alex and Austin at a box store of some sort – probably Target. I finally remembered to ask them about the trunk, and Austin said that it was still open. I couldn’t believe he knew it was open and didn’t close it. He offered me the keys, but I knew I wouldn’t need them just to close the door. They directed me to the second floor of a parking garage connected to the Target. I rode an escalator up to the second floor and almost immediately saw the car. It was easy to pick out because of the open door in the back.

I quickly realized why Austin hadn’t closed it, too. The way he had parked, the wall of the parking garage behind the car was in the way. I had to push the car forward the inch or so allowed by the suspension to get the door past the wall. Once I took care of that, it seemed to close without a problem. I was still suspicious of the door… I went back down the escalator to talk with the others about the restaurant we were looking for.

Screaming Phone

I had a false awakening in which the alarm tone was replaced by a woman’s screams of agony. It was so jarring that I had difficulty going back to sleep afterward.

Until my 7 AM alarm really woke me up, I thought this actually happened.

Tsuna's Wedding Invitations

I was Sawada Tsunayoshi. Reborn led me, my guardians, and a number of guests into a classroom to discuss invitations to the upcoming Vongola wedding. No one ever mentioned who I was marrying, but I understood that it was only a matter of days until the ceremony. My task was to draw four cards for everyone to determine whether or not they were suitable guests for the wedding. Reborn insisted that the Goddess of Fortune would prevent me from inviting any troublemakers. If the sum value of the four cards was less than 20, I wasn’t supposed to give them an invitation. Of course, I planned to keep a list of the people who failed this test in case there were extra invitations at the end… Regardless of Reborn’s superstitious talk, it was going to be a small wedding if I started turning them away now. We didn’t discuss the values of each card; Reborn left that to my interpretation. I gave numbered cards their face value and named cards a value of ten. I didn’t see the joker until later on, but I eventually decided that whoever got the joker would need further review.

While I distributed the cards, I thought about Apheri. Her form seemed less stable lately, but I couldn’t figure out why. People kept asking me questions about things I’d done, but Reborn just threw things at them to get them to be quiet. I moved down the line, handing people cards and smiling when they thanked me. When I came to Yamamoto, I drew just one card. It had the number 20 printed on it, and the card art depicted me and Yamamoto standing together. I thought it was fitting since he had saved my life so many times.

“Thank you, my friend,” I said mostly in response to my own thoughts. I hugged him before moving on. Most of the time, three cards were enough for people to pass. While it was certainly possible for someone to fail the four card test, I wondered if it would ever happen… I saw more signs for concern in a couple of guys’ argumentative behavior than I did in the result of the test. By the end of it, I was just drawing stacks of cards and lying them out before I went to see the people sitting in the room. The test didn’t seem relevant. This was when I drew the first joker. The card art depicted a creepy clown with curly, red hair. I wondered who would receive it… Surely, they would be offended that I gave them this disgusting card. I put it in the back of the bookcase I was using as a placeholder for my stacks of cards.

I found a wooden boat on the top shelf of the bookcase. It was covered in sand. As I set it down, I had a faint memory of sailing it in Arabasta. I wondered whether this sand was from there or the beach. Someone mentioned that I sailed it somewhere else even more recently… When I thought about it, I pictured the dirty river from another of last night’s dreams. I remembered it sinking in that nasty river. Any remnants of Arabasta sand were almost certainly washed out during that ordeal. I glanced over at Reborn – still going on and on about wedding procedures. I hoped he wouldn’t punish me too gravely for not paying attention.

Etching Thoughts into Data

In a false awakening, I inscribed my dreams into my journal by etching my thoughts into a file from Nicole’s bed. The vividness of my dreams was better captured this way, and I was able to post pictures of my dreams, too! When I was done, I decided to go back to sleep.

Windhover's Dream

I went outside. some guys were building a log house. I barely remember here. these guys try to dig a hole thru plastic? bag...

Katsuno's Dreams

1st: (This was all one long dream with dreams inside the dream :O) I was on a ship with some classmates. We were on the way to a island. The journey should take 3 days and the ship was so boring. (In this dream I felt the whole 3 days) On the first day we played cards and talked and just messed around. When we went to bed I dreamed of doing parkour to escape from a man and his child. They seemed friendly but it was good training for me. This was the first time in a dream where I was really pro at parkour and it was a lot of fun. When I arrived at a playground we talked and then they ran away and I had to follow them. The area looked a bit like a park. When I woke up on the ship it was the second day and it was boring again. We planned what to do when we arrive and such stuff. I just killed time with sitting around and when I went to bed again I dreamed of lurking through DV. I looked at the new posts in our forum and saw something. It was a new thread about who has the most synchs with others. I was one of the members who had the most. When I woke up we already arrived and we took our stuff and leaved the ship. I made a joke about immediately sailing back for another 3 days and we went into a house. In it were 4 beds and I immediately threw my bag on one to show them that this is mine. They all took a bed and I told them that I want to spend some money in the clubs. Then I woke up for real.

Nephanim's Dreams

Sorry this took so long. Today's been busy!

Gentler Awakening

I awoke to the sound of my phone ringing. I looked on the floor beside the bed and saw that Nicole was calling me. The time said it was 7:35 AM – exactly what I set my alarm to. I decided she was calling me to wake me up. That way, I wouldn’t be rudely awakened by the alarm! I smiled at how considerate this was. When I picked up, however, I could only hear noise on the other end.

Local Deforestation

I was in the back of a car with Austin. My parents drove us around an old neighborhood we once lived in. I noticed that many of the trees were gone… Some portions of the neighborhood looked totally different because all the trees had been chopped down. The surrounding area had a tendency to turn into a swamp. I showed Austin one spot where thick woods had been turned into a treeless swamp stretching back as far as the eye could see. He didn’t seem as upset as I was.

Community in the Tower

I was scaling some sort of tower with Nicole and Chelsea. As a rule, we encountered Scamper on every floor – even though none of us brought him to the next level. To quote myself in the dream: “I can’t even pick him up to take him upstairs without him snarling at me, so I don’t know how he’s following us.”

One of the lower levels was Matthew’s house. Lauren came up from a floor below us with her boyfriend. She didn’t seem pleased by the news that we were going to spend the night. I helped myself to some apple juice. Meanwhile, Scamper gathered everyone’s socks and destroyed most of them. My mom saw what happened and scolded me for allowing Scamper to get my socks. I walked over to the corner of the living room where he’d gathered them all and picked out my socks. I didn’t mind wearing them as long as they had dried… I just didn’t want dog slobber between my toes.

The dream jumped. Several floors later, we met Jenna Marbles in a room with several thick pillars supporting the ceiling. We also encountered Scamper again, but he was definitely in worse shape than before. I found a few more tumors on his back than I remembered… We agreed that we wanted to move on, so we went upstairs.

The dream jumped. Eventually, we reached the floor we were looking for. It operated like a private community. The ceiling was so high that the people living there were able to construct miniature houses inside the enormous room. They had an arcade with all sorts of video games ranging from classics to modern hits. They also had a trampoline and an elaborate tunnel system which connected all of the buildings. Surrounding all of these things was a fragile layer of plant life – trees, produce, and some wild grasses. The environment sustained a number of unique animal species I’d never seen before. I met with Nomad and learned that the people living there had no respect for the environment or the animals living in it. They wanted to turn the trampoline into a dump. Besides the fact that it was a waste of a perfectly good trampoline, I didn’t like this news. Nomad and I got on the trampoline and started protesting. We hoped that our attempt to reason with the locals would prevent devastation to the environment.

Instead, when they heard what we had to say, they started pulling springs off the trampoline and throwing them at us. Nomad gave up immediately. If they wanted to attack him, he said he would just move on rather than letting them steal his energy. I decided to hang in there a while longer, but it was useless. They ganged up on me and started pelting me with multiple springs at a time. The hooks on the ends tore me apart as they fell down my face, throat, and arms. It wasn’t long before I threw up my arms in defeat.

“I give up!” I announced. “I would offer to vomit on the trampoline to get you started, but I’d rather keep the food in my stomach.” I climbed off the trampoline and left them to their abusive lifestyle. When I found Chelsea and Scamper, we decided it was best to take him to a safe place. The people on this floor were prone to animal abuse in addition to their destructive attitude toward the environment. We set up a system of passwords with a keypad on the door to Scamper’s safe house. Using the position of letters in the alphabet as a code system, we periodically came up with a new password for the door.

The room was too small for Scamper… He quickly became restless, but we couldn’t allow him to go outside. He was dying quickly enough because of his tumors without the interference of the cruel townspeople. I was touched by how excited Scamper was to see us even though he’d just been with us on the previous floor. He put his head in my lap and went to sleep.

Sometime later, Chelsea agreed to watch Scamper, and we switched the password on the door. I went to look at arcade games for a while. Most of the games had been modified to allow multiplayer over the local area network. I saw someone doing this with Sonic Adventure 2: Battle. Immediately, I thought to suggest this to Nicole, but I couldn’t find her. I kept looking at games for a few more minutes before returning to the tunnel system. I noticed a black puppy following me around. When I knelt and pet the dog, it wagged its tail excitedly. Although the tail was longer and some of the details were different, the puppy’s behavior was identical to Scamper’s. He even responded to the same name. I concluded that Scamper had died, and this was his reincarnation. I took the puppy straight to Chelsea in the locked room.

It turns out that Scamper wasn’t dead yet. Two clocks on the ceiling indicated the dogs’ remaining life force. The puppy was full of life, obviously, but Scamper was really running low. His clock stopped. For a few more minutes, he lay with us however he could without irritating his tumors. Eventually, the light in the clock faded out, too, and Scamper was dead. I held him in my arms for a while as I mourned his death. The black puppy started acting like Scamper again… No matter what, I knew I had to get this puppy out of the tower. I could bring him back to my parents’ house and give them the chance to raise Scamper a second time.

The dream jumped. Nicole and I approached Oma and Opa’s house. When he saw us outside, Opa warned me that he needed to take me to the airport. My dad told him that I would have to start school soon. I checked my phone and saw that it was August 28th. It surprised me that school hadn’t started yet, but I assumed it was only a matter of days. We went inside and told my great grandparents all about what happened in the tower, including Scamper’s death. I still found myself in tears over it. What really bothered me was that most of the problems in that community near the top of the tower were easily preventable. They had a trash chute… They certainly didn’t need to sacrifice the health of the environment. Opa told us about a man he knew from that tower community. The man sold hot dogs for a living. After ten years in the tower, he was a millionaire! Nicole talked about some moldy food she found there…

I set up my flight to Chicago. Initially, I thought it would be expensive to book a same-day flight, but I found a special offer on Southwest Airlines’ website for $10 flights to Chicago.

Promotional Event at Chick-fil-A

I was waiting in a line outside Chick-fil-A for some kind of promotional event. Nicole, Kunle, his husband, Joel, Kaitlin, and some new guy from Dreamviews sat with me at a table outside the restaurant. Nicole and I ate a creative dessert called Yesterday’s Trash that consisted of assorted candies from the past five decades in a candy shell that was designed to look like a plastic candy bar wrapper. It was good enough that I was disappointed whenever I accidentally dropped some of my candy. A woman with a number of tattoos told us about how she came up with the idea for the dessert. After she left, a second big group came to wait in line. One of the guys in their group complained about Chick-fil-A’s connection lagging. I had no idea what he was talking about. Kaitlin insisted that it was probably just his computer since Chick-fil-A didn’t offer a wireless connection… He wasn’t convinced.

“When you have thousands of minutes of lag every day, it’s definitely not your computer,” he argued. I started paying more attention to the inside of the store. Some of the employees were cleaning the tables. We had already been waiting there for several hours – from sometime in the morning until evening. An elderly couple went inside; the door was unlocked. A couple more people went inside and sat down. Out of curiosity, I joined these people inside the store. We sat down at tables inside, and one of the employees informed us that he would get everything outside ready for us to start. I stood at the window and stared at Nicole. I couldn’t remember if she had her phone… The guy from Dreamviews saw me first and ran inside. I couldn’t see Nicole anymore.

Yosma's Dreams

Alright well a lot happened in my dreams last night so they are really jumbled and this order might be incorrect.

Dream 1- I was at my school walking around in the hall way and then I went to lunch. I was sitting with people I don't normally sit with and I don't really remember what happened. I suddenly became lucid after lunch. As I walking away from the lunch room I saw some girl sitting in a chair and I dove over her just for fun. I then started doing wall jumps and back flips of walls also for fun. I exited the school and as I was walking out the door a women told me that "Chichen-Itza was to the left". I was about to go look, but then I saw my friend Justin and wanted to see if he was a D/C or we were sharing a dream so I told him we were dreaming. He didn't believe me so I flew and touched the top of the nearest tree and when I came down I couldn't find him again. Then I saw some people passing a Frisbee I think. I went to the parking lot and was trying to see if I could fly really high and then I saw my cousin. He threw a rock at me -_-. Then my uncle came and told me I was in trouble and to go sit in timeout. First off I'm 17 and secondly he threw the rock at me, but I think I went into timeout anyway because I became non-lucid.

Dream 2- I was in a hotel with mostly people I don't know besides one girl who was my best friends cousin and some guy I talked to like once in school. We went out to some amusement park and I don't quite remember what we did there. Finally we went on an adventure and our objective was to find these magical pets. We found these flaming monkeys. We then went to my school and there was a hurricane outside and the place was flooded up to our waists so we walked on floating boards and then we went into a cave in the school and after navigating it for a while we found a cave with tons of flaming monkeys. We decided to leave them alone and went back through the cave. We were in the flooded cafeteria and I was crossing the floating boards and I fell in and my cell phone was in my pocket so I got really pissed and I woke up.

Dream 3- I'm in my house and a hurricane is happening (these dreams are like mixing into one another). My roof is leaking in every room, but it's the worst in my parents room. I suddenly just appear at soccer practice and we are scrimmaging. Finally my coach calls us over to him and he says we are going somewhere. Everyone gets in there car and suddenly we are on a basketball court. There are professional players there and some of us are playing to. I'm already bad a basketball as it is, but my reactions are so slow. I can't move very well and I also can't stop my momentum when I run. Finally my coach calls me out, but as I'm running out I realize how odd this is and I become lucid. I immediately turn around and go out as if my coach never called me out and he doesn't say anything. Some professional player on the other team shoots, but I pull the ball back with telekinesis. The dream starts to fade so I drop to the ground and start rubbing the floor, but I can't hold on and I wake up. Well not really I just have a false awakening. I'm inside in a car and that guy I met once that I mentioned before was driving and my friends cousin was there to. We drive back to my house and we go up stairs. The roof is done leaking, but there are wet spots everywhere. The guy shows me a graph on the internet that says masturbation chart. It says 24%=Dean(which is me) and 10%=my mom. I was confused, so I went into my room where I fought them both league of legends style. I had poppy's moves and I slammed them into the wall and used my ultimate and took out the guy and proceeded to kill her. I woke up

Joshdamighty's Dream

So I attempted a w.i.l.d but had a hard time getting back to sleep after waking up at 6:00am (went to bed at 12:00am).

I was telling myself when I see the colors and I know I'm going through sleep paralysis, I will immediately wake up and reality check. I guess I waited too long... I ended up dreaming of getting up thinking it didn't work and I did a reality check with my hands and they looked normal! That's odd that they were normal.

So now I'm thinking its real. I go outside and want to see if the weather is windy and cooler here in Texas cause we have been waiting forever for this. I see the wind and then see my brother standing about 100 yards away from the house and he's watching it too. Then, the sky changes to a bright white. I see snow way off in the distance. I was really confused now but then heard a loud roar. I could tell from my years of playing monster hunter that it was a BLANGONGA.


Blangonga is the big one, blangos are the small ones.

I freaked out and yelled at my brother to get inside and he just stood there (why is it my brother always gets in these situations in my dreams). It starts snowing heavy and I see Blangos and then see a big shadow in the distance. Now I don't normally lose my cool in dreams but this time I went crazy.

I ran inside to grab a sword or battleaxe and woke up.

HoC's Dream

The dream is very fragmented and I remember very little.

There's something about The Legend of Zelda.
I'm in a garden, or what looks liek a garden. It was very nature filled.
The next thing I remember is being at school with a couple of people, the school was all mirrored to what it usually was. I saw what looked like the girl that appears in some of my other dreams through a window. Me and some other people were carrying boxes and stuff like that. I joked about the person who was next to me.
And the rest is just a big unknown.

Katsuno's Dreams

1st: I was inside a mall. It was like a game and I had a gun. Suddenly there were many monsters (zombies etc.) and attacked me. I was with some other guy and we climbed up a ladder to get to a secure position. We shot down the monsters but they also came from behind. When they got me I pushed them back and shot them in the head. I also sniped some and after a while the dream changed.

2nd: (kinda nightmare but still fun) I was inside a huge mansion and Sam and Dean from supernatural were with me. It was a haunted mansion and we had to search every room. We splitted up and suddenly I switched to a different "camera position" and I was Dean now. I went into a room and it was dark. I just searched for something but the whole furniture was haunted. It attack me and made weird sounds and so on. I looked into a mirror and suddenly a really scary creature came out of it and I ran away and upstairs. I went into another room but it was also full of ghosts. This went on and when I reached to top of the mansion Sam was also there and we searched together. I don't know what we searched but Sam found it and the dream scene changed again.

3rd: I was on a horse with some guys and 2 friends of mine. It was like in those old Western movies. We had guns and it looked like we were bandits. Suddenly we reached a house and the guys bought some cigarettes. I don't smoke (irl) but my friend told me to try those because they taste like bacon and other stuff. At first I was like no way I don't smoke but for some reason they really look tempting (I swore myself to never smoke but this dream really wants me to try a cigarette IRL ). I agreed and took one. It tasted really nice and I bought myself some. When we got on our way again I smoked the whole thing and woke up.

4th: (This is a weird and short dream but it contains a huge fail of mine -.- ) I was looking at a aquarium and suddenly told myself my new mindset I try to do IRL. I told myself that everything is a dream and that I'm lucid. I looked around but didn't do a RC and therefore I didn't realize what I said! Damn me...
After that I woke up and was so angry at myself

AnimusMessor179's Attempt

1) I am at a sports game, of the US versus various other nations. The foreigners are devastating us, and are completely aware of this. Somehow it will worsen the world's view of America... An indian man pops his head through a white banner.

I found myself in a stone building, with one wall gone so i could see the outside. people were around me, and then a golden lift thing came down, and it was kind of small. i got on it with some others, and since there was little room i sat on the edge with my legs hanging down with one other guy, and it didnt seem very safe. then it took off really fast, and i could barely hold on. i almost fell but pulled myself up. the attendant said that there were too many people and the weight limit was maxxed, so tried to push me and the other guy off. i resisted, but then jumped since there was a river below, and the guy followed. there were people swimming in the river, and we asked one guy for his canoe so we could try to get to the top of the mountian where the lift was going. when we were in it we went upriver, and came to the mountian where the river was rediculously steep but not a waterfall, and were able to go up it due to wierd currents. part way up the river forked and went down in a different direction we went up, and the guy got pulled into it and went back down and i never saw him again. i grabbed onto a rock which fell and i crashed down with it. suddenly i was on the lift with only 2 others. the same lady who turned out to be a serial killer tried to push me off, i held on over land then let go. then i found myself in the stone room watching criminal minds on my laptop, and woke up. the rest of my dreams had few people and i knew them all.

every987

fragmented dream. I'm on a path for something. It's a gravel road. I decide to race someone through it. People watch us from outside like were animals.

Nephanim's Dreams

Recall was gradual and fuzzy this morning. I got too much sleep.

Road Trip and Private Gas Pumps

I was in the convertible with Nicole as she drove around the country. She insisted on driving ten miles per hour over the speed limit at a minimum, often faster than that. We pulled into a private parking lot in front of a tennis court and an apartment complex. There were self-service gas stations placed her and there in the parking lot. Nicole couldn’t get into the right position to pump the gas, so she kept having to pull around for another attempt. Eventually, she parked in a position that she deemed satisfactory, but I realized she had actually just backed into a parking space. I wasn’t sure the pump would be able to reach the car. When she got out to refuel the car, she left the engine running. I climbed halfway into the front seat to turn it off, but then I heard a woman talking to her outside.

“You can’t park here,” the woman said. “I’m going to have to ask you to leave.”

“I’m just getting gas,” Nicole said, waving her hands.

“Oh… Okay then.” The woman walked away with no further comment. I sighed and turned off the car. After she filled up the tank, we drove toward Tennessee. I wasn’t sure why; Nicole wouldn’t give an explanation for our road trip across the nation.

Burying Dogs and Halloween Festivities

Austin, Nicole, and I took Scamper and Meg for a walk during the night. They were really able to talk. Austin got tired of listening to Scamper whine about everything, so he grabbed a shovel and started digging a grave.

“What is this for?” I asked him suspiciously, holding both dogs’ leashes in one hand.

“I’m burying the dogs,” he said. “It’ll be fun.” I pulled the dogs away from Austin’s hole and started looking through a dresser that was just sitting out in the yard. There were gigantic, stained briefs in one drawer… I decided not to investigate anymore.

I had a false awakening. Nicole’s house was decorated with Halloween-themed streamers, cobwebs, and dangling skulls. Her mom came into the living room wearing a convincing skeletal reaper costume. She told us to get into our costumes before the party. Nicole gave me a costume to wear… Somehow, I didn’t realize while I was putting it on that it was basically a princess dress… Nicole’s mom came back and saw me wearing it.

“That’s silly,” she said. “Why are you wearing a skirt?”

“It’s a princess dress, Mom!” protested Nicole. I stared down in horror at the pink frills in the front.

“I’m not wearing this…” I warned them both, especially Nicole. I pulled the dress off, revealing jeans and an orange T-shirt. “I’ll just dress normally.”

“He can be the undead teenager,” suggested Nicole’s mother.

“That’s boring!” Nicole complained. “Come on, just wear it!”

Slaying of the Shogun (Portions omitted)

I watched as various people interfered with each other’s private dreamworlds. Leela and Zapp Brannigan constructed a field of flowers together. Ironically, Zapp’s perception of the dreamworld was more cutesy than Leela’s. She sent him on a quest to find good entertainment. Zapp jumped down a green pipe (Mario style) and appeared before me. I advised him to look into the Muppets. As evidence of their entertainment value, I showed him a live performance. Kermit was eaten alive by a shadow monster on stage. The other Muppets turned his bloody corpse into a substance like ketchup and used it with their fries and fish nuggets. Zapp was enthralled by the sight of this and decided to get Leela immediately. When he returned to her world, she was talking with house people. They were miniature versions of cookie-cutter houses with beady eyes and toothy smiles. She ordered him to leave, but he fell to his knees in the flowers and begged her to forgive him. He started telling her about the Muppets, and she accused him of killing a dream character. Somehow, she decided the Muppets were real people – and this made it acceptable. She was opposed to the senseless murder of dream characters, however.

The dream jumped. Nicole, Andrea, and I were investigating an invisible assassin who kept bothering Nicole in her dreams. Andrea called it a shogun. We walked into an empty diner, and Nicole waited by the door while Andrea and I went to the back of the restaurant. We found this closet area that she said would be perfect for destroying the shogun. After she closed the closet door behind us, Andrea gave a quick explanation of her plan. I was to bury my face in women’s lingerie to attract the attention of the shogun. Meanwhile, she would track down his body and prepare a weapon to slay him. We had to leave the closet and come back to get the undergarments to appear. Andrea made an attempt to summon the shogun to the closet.

“Okay, now pretend there’s a woman here. You need to attract the shogun with your senses.” I buried my face in the blue-and-white striped panties to mislead the shogun. After a minute or two, Andrea fired some kind of blast of energy at an invisible form in the closet. The robed figure became visible as he slumped to the ground. To finish him off, she jabbed a white stake into the back of his neck. His body dissolved into shadows and disappeared again.

“We got him!” Andrea announced. “Let’s go tell Nicole.”

“I’ll be out there in a few minutes,” I said. Andrea gave me a weird look, but she shrugged and walked out, closing the closet door again. After a moment, my privacy was interrupted.

“Hey!” I sat up halfway. The door was open, and Austin stood with some kind of thick manual in his hands. “Come here! Chelsea and I need to ask you a few questions, sir.”

“About what?”

“About the aragon.”

“What aragon…?” I muttered. I walked out of the closet and joined him and Chelsea at the bar of the diner. They were looking at information on various magical beings in the dream realm.

“She doesn’t understand what it means to kill an aragon,” Chelsea told Austin as we approached. I understood that it would just regenerate from the fabric of the dreamworld. An aragon was an immortal entity.

“It wasn’t an aragon, though,” I explained. Chelsea pulled up an image of one on her laptop. It looked sort of like a monk from Tibia. Although the appearance was similar, I shook my head. “Andrea called it something else…”

“What did she call it?” Austin asked. I couldn’t remember.

“It was similar, but… It wasn’t aragon…” I looked through their manual for anything that looked or sounded familiar. I couldn’t find anything. Austin started telling Chelsea about a Dragonball programming language. Chelsea refused to discuss it because there were so many rules for each of the instructions offered by the language. She didn’t want to memorize that much information. I followed them at a distance into a back area of the diner that merged with my parents’ new house in Texas. The hallway leading to Chelsea’s room had been replaced with a bathroom. I asked my siblings to excuse me for a moment, handed Austin the manual, and stepped into the bathroom. I took care to lock the door. I heard voices outside... My mom called my name.

“I’ll be out in a minute,” I replied. I saw Chelsea standing beside me. I thought I was just seeing her through the wall, but I quickly realized the wall was gone. Oma and Opa came upstairs and asked if I was ready to go.

Neluna Isn't a Robot

Aeolar and I were discussing our dream characters after a successful shared dream. He misread something I posted on Dreamviews about Neluna and Symphony. For some reason, he thought I said that Neluna was a robot. Having met her already, though, he knew otherwise.

“Neluna isn’t a robot,” he reminded me. I frowned at his post. When did I say that? I glanced back at the jumbled mess of words I had just posted. Symphony’s name wasn’t mentioned anywhere. I just described her as “the robot.” For clarification, I edited the post to use Symphony’s name instead.

Aqua's Dreams:

Dream #1: I am at my grandparents house and apparently it's my dad's birthday because people kept saying happy birthday to him. I'm sitting in the living room with a bunch of people I've never seen before. They are talking about something strange, something to do with oil. There are two guys around my age sitting on the couch, not one of them notices me and when everyone leaves I ask my dad who those people were. He said they're my 8th cousins.

Dream #2: Dream had something to do with the state of Utah, and Atras. Can't remember anything else.

Dream recall hasn't been too good lately because of school starting.

MatrixMaster92's Dreams:
Hey guys , sorry I haven't been participating much the past month or so. I've just started college and have been very busy but last night I managed a LD and had some interesting dreams so here they are:

#1:[Lucid]
I was walking around a large mansion style house. I had just left a room where I was organizing some college papers. I had grabbed a large bike on display in the mansion and was carrying it around (lol). I was talking to a friend and realized it was a dream. My friend had a white face that looked like it was made of porcelain or something. I inspected him closely and said, "Man, you look wierd!". It looked like a Phantom of the Opera mask. Then I went outside through the front door of the mansion. I saw a small poster stuck to a wall up about 11 feet of the ground. It looked like it had Einstien on it and I got excited about what it might say. I tried to float up to it or fly to it but found myself feeling very heavy. That caused me to lose my focus and I lost my center and the dream faded out.

#2 [non-lucid]
I was sitting in a green grass field maybe beside a pond. I was trying to organize my notebook again (lol college spilling into my dreams) when a person came up to me. I felt that they were an old friend that I knew very well. It was one of those experiences where you feel like you have different memories and experiences while in the dream compared to waking life. She said she wanted to have dinner with me at the diner nearby. I said something like, "Oh, I think I ate breakfast there earlier but it doesn't matter". Dreams like this make me think about why the dreaming mind often seems like a different one from waking.
