Lucid Time!

I remember I was on what looked like a college campus, and for the first time in recent memory, it didn't look like my own. It looked like one of those really old classical ivy league universities. I remember I was walking around with some students and a professor talking about how misrepresented geology is in video games like Minecraft.

I looked in the sky and saw two moons and recognized the dream sign instantly. I looked again after RCing and saw two planets with a close resemblance to earth. The smaller of the two, to the left had a large desert continent in the middle and no ice caps. The other looked more like a flooded earth, almost all of it water with a few small islands and large polar ice caps.

I decided I would fly. I jumped into the air (I don't think I ever said goodbye to my party of geology majors) but at first I didn't get far. I floated up onto a bench several feet away. I jumped again and tried to force myself upward. I landed on top of a building.

"COME ON!"

Apparently my aggressive encouragement worked when I rocketed off the roof of the building, (apparently damaging it, judging by the missing roof tiles I saw when I looked back. Oops.) I went supersonic and pulled out of the atmosphere. I was still undecided on what planet I would visit. I decided on the smaller one, figuring maybe it had microgravity and that would be fun to mess around in.

I was past the clouds in a few moments, and I often find my dreams tend to ignore the upper 90% of the atmosphere that scientifically speaking should be there, so I was pretty much in space. I focused on the planet coming closer. I was actually focused on a spot just to the right of it, but my trajectory still accelerated and curved towards it. I didn't want to hit it directly after what happened last time but one of the things I remember thinking to myself was.

Spoiler for 'science' rant:

"The moon has a diameter of 1/4 that of the earth. Therefore if these planets were roughly the size of the moon in the sky when I left, and we assume they are about the size of the earth, that would mean they would have to be about four times farther away to have the same apparent diameter. Since it takes light 1.3 seconds to travel from the earth to the moon, then it would take about 5 seconds to travel from one earth to another. That means since I travelled to this planet in about 5 seconds, I was going light speed. But why am I analyzing the science of lucid dreams, where a whole boatload of stuff doesn't make sense..."

"Okay... stop! Let's not bump into a planet at relativistic speeds again..." I came to a stop. I then tried to imagine myself moving down towards the surface and dropped and a pretty considerable speed. I fell through the atmosphere but managed to slow myself down right before I hit the water.

I swam myself up to the surface. I had only been falling fast enough to hit the water as though I had fallen from the high-dive. Considering my usual landing strategy consists of stopping and falling the last few hundred feet into the general vicinity of where I want to be, that's pretty good.

I swam to shore and saw a lighthouse. I decided I would go inside. I remember the inside of the lighthouse tower was mostly empty but it had two metal catwalks, one spiraling up the outside wall of the lighthouse tower and the other spiraling up a central column on the inside. I wanted to climb to the top. Don't know why I didn't just fly, I think I was losing lucidity.

I started climbing the catwalk around the central column. I noticed something very nonsensical, that I seemed to only take a few steps up each time I made a complete loop around the column. The catwalk should have gotten all bunched up and there wouldn't have been enough space for me to put my head up if it had been reality, and I remember clearly thinking of all this while I was ascending.

I remember coming across a tunnel in the outside wall of the lighthouse (that a few minutes ago would have been a hole in the side of the building, but now it seemed to extend off into a cave.) There was a very old bearded man there who said this was the mining minigame and it had something to do with the discussion about geology that I had with the people in the beginning of the dream.

I remember I started mining with him and I found this ore block with pink crystals in it. He said it was eridium and it was rarer than diamonds and I should mine it right away. I lost the dream and woke up.

...

I was on a beach at night. There were huge cliffs off to either side of the beach. I remember seeing Ruby (from RWBY) and that got me lucid. I think that there was some subplot as to why she was in my dream, some monster she was fighting or something. I for some reason thought of the animation in the series, and just animation in general.

I then dreamed of a 2D pixel-art style animation where I flew to another planet. Apparently this was actually how I travelled to the third planet, still using the three earths from the original dream. Things only changed back to the 'realistic' style after I entered the atmosphere and I flew low over a river that ran through a forested area.

I eventually arrived at a location that looked similar to the lighthouse from the first dream. But there were more buildings at this one, a few houses. Apparently it was like a collection of houses you could rent near the lighthouse for family events and parties and the likes. I came down and landed near the swimming pool where whatever family this was having their party. For whatever reason nobody paid any mind to the flying person who landed in the middle of their swimming pool.

I remember there was this little boy with a huge water gun. (I knew it was a water gun since it had the 'Super Soaker' logo on it.) The boy was trying to fill up the gun by cupping his hands and putting the water in a little bit at a time. I showed him that what you're supposed to do is just put the whole thing underwater with the cap off and let it fill. Apparently the boy caught my expression because he started to swim away. I pulled the water gun up. I remember trying to pull the trigger once. It caused three 'barrels' to extend out the front and start spinning. I then noticed a second trigger that actually shot water from the three spinning barrels.

I started shooting the other family members who all took it as just fun, except for this old grandma lady who showed up and started yelling at not just me but everyone in the pool saying that everyone was having too much fun and we should be suffering more. Someone else came and started talking to her and told her to go back to the room.

I gave the Water-Minigun back to the boy, telling him that I really liked it and that he was lucky to have parents who would buy him such a thing.

Something to do with going third person in a very dark room. I think I was using my flames to illuminate things.
