Dream No. 711 - Separated Sections

Dream 711 A - Ice-Cream Parlour
I can’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, my mum, brother and I were going for a drive to Canberra. I was driving them in my mum’s car and decided to take the scenic country route. We decided to stop in a medium sized country town and we were on our way to supposedly a well known ice-cream parlour of the place.

I forgot what my mum and brother ordered and I remember looked at all the ice-cream tubs and was overwhelmed for choice. What caught my eye eventually though was this blueberry ice-cream. As I looked up to the see the deals, I realised that we could get a maximum combo of three flavours. Even though the amount of ice-cream would be more, I begged and pleaded with my brother to let me have three flavours and that I may even ask for a lesser amount of some. He said okay and this made me really happy.

I ended up ordering two variations of the blueberry flavour and then I also asked for the ‘Boost chocolate bar’ flavour; so my ice-cream was a mix of this electric blue with some brown on top. I tried some of the ice-cream and it tasted so good, I wish it existed in real life. I can’t remember anything else about this dream.

Dream 711 B - Buzz's Dungeon
I can’t remember how the dream started. From where I can remember, I was supposedly in some unknown study room, doing a SAC (school assessment task) for one my high school science subjects. Though in the dream, it seemed like my parents felt like I was slacking off, although I really wasn’t, and wasn’t trying at all.

The scene then went into my backyard in the evening and it’s like there was a new dad in the family to straighten me out. I looked through the kitchen window and there was my mum along with a man dressed in an army uniform. The man then spoke and he had an American accent. It wasn’t long before his language became brutal and abusive and I didn’t even know what I did wrong. In-fact I felt that this was straight out abuse and so I had to get away from this man.

As he kept yelling at me, I braced myself and bowled over into the strip of garden next to the fence to try and hide. There was another girl lying there in my high school winter uniform, her name was Brooke. I could tell that she was also hiding from the man and so I was going to help her escape; for the meantime, telling her to stay quiet. It didn’t work though as the army dad seemed to sniff us out like a hound and I sensed that he was coming.

I told Brooke that we needed to leave immediately and I actually took her in my arms as I ascended into the air. I said that to cross over to Kingdom Hearts (supposedly we were going there for Riku to protect us), we needed to first go through Buzz’s Dungeon (Spyro 3) and only if we reached Buzz’s dungeon, we’d be safe. As a flew towards the fence, I was scared I didn’t go high enough and so we’d fall and the rogue army dad would catch us. There was a sigh of relief from me though as we JUST got over the fence and fell into Buzz’s Dungeon.

I seemed to be on my own now; and was going to be no ordinary hurdle. I was actually facing the boss of Spyro 3 myself and to be able to go to Kingdom Hearts, I had to defeat Buzz! I had everything including my own version of a health bar and gem counter, and Sparx was with me too! It wasn’t long before the ‘brown toad’ in this dream (the dream made his graphics realistic to suit me) started rolling around the arena. I even made reactions as the giant toad hit me and I lost sections of my health bar.

Two hits and I thought I was going to win, but the toad rolled at me from surprise, and I lost all my health and ‘died’. I now disappeared from the dream’s view and it was now back to first-person mode like I was now spectating the boss battle; but why was it still going? A holographic menu appeared, in Spyro 3 font and format, titled ‘Big Boi Time’. I was to choose an action that Sparx would do to defeat Buzz and only if Sparx failed to defeat Buzz, then the whole thing would be over.

I took a little while to scroll down the list and see my options, but I soon decided to choose the option named ‘Combustion’. This would power Sparx up with the ability to shoot fireballs at Buzz. The dream then went to Sparx’s ‘aiming’ perspective and Buzz started running. Sparx shot three fireballs in quick succession, but they all missed Buzz. Going with the rule of 3; I thought Sparx had used them all up and so it was game over; but then he shot a fourth one and I though this one was going to miss, but it actually ‘tracked’ Buzz and hit him while he was in the horizontal ‘wind tunnel’; and this won us the boss battle! So now I would be granted entry to Kingdom Hearts.

The dream exited the scene entirely though and I thought I was robbed of the chance to go to Kingdom Hearts. However, it’s like I was on a ‘scene select’ screen on a movie and I actually had to control a pointer a click on the next sequence. As I did so, the TV was still up but the scene played in a little box. It was inside some old house and Riku was half-way between sitting and lying on a couch in his KH2 appearance but with a realistic vibe to him. The dream ended before I myself could actually go to meet him in Kingdom Hearts.

Dream 711 C - Please Speak To Me (Lucid Dream 37)
I seemed to be in my current house, but it was slightly distorted and in the dream, my parents’ bedroom was actually my room. This room in the dream seemed to constitute the main scene all throughout; it’s like this was the area for the false awakening; from here, I would have dreams within dreams. So in the bedroom, it simply started off with my having in mind that I had dream tasks left to do and so I tried to call for Riku to get him to talk to me about Sora.

I then fell asleep on the bed and entered my first sub-dream. I can’t remember it well but I do know for a fact that it was an utter failure to get to Riku. In-fact, I think Master Yen Sid appeared and then disappeared, almost as if he was signalling that Riku didn’t want to talk about the matter. I then woke up back into the dream bedroom and despite what happened in the sub-dream, I was determined to get an answer from Riku as only I knew what I needed to do. I went for a few more sleeps but failed to reach Riku in all of them.

When I woke up back in the dream bedroom, I became frustrated as I kept waking up quickly without achieving anything. I went over to my parents’ dresser cabinet and saw a small wooden mirror sitting on the top drawer compartment. Treating it like a magic mirror, I looked into it and called for Riku; he appeared but then disappeared again in the blink of an eye.

I still refused to give up; I forced myself beck onto the bed to enter another sleep. Just as I got on the bed, my mum came into the room and placed a clock on the dresser. She then set a time on it and said that if the clock hit that time; the alarm would go off. She set the clock to be about 1.5 hours from the current time. She also then put to weird incense into the clock but she said it was supposed to help me and when it started releasing, it didn’t feel bad.

My mum ended up leaving the room and therefore leaving me with what I had to do to get more progress in my sleep. I now drilled myself, saying that I had to beat the alarm. I also kept saying to myself out loud ‘be in control!’. Whenever I started to find my mind wandering elsewhere, I stopped and drilled myself further; with a constant ‘be in control!’ as well as some other lines in-between; and soon, I drifted off back into a sub-dream, with the scene going into a black void to represent the transition.

I then ended up at a distorted version of The Final World from Kingdom Hearts 3; it was more cloudier here; and there was every single KH character there… Except for Sora. I immediately took to looking for Riku but could not find him easily amongst the maze of KH characters. However, I came across a person in a black coat and that’s when I realised I could execute another task. From the back, I identified that this was Xigbar and so I immediately got his attention and interrogated him. He actually openly confessed that he (talking for the whole O-XIII in this case) was responsible for Sora’s ‘dream paralysis. He gave me a lot of information but I have forgotten everything that he said. I then let Xigbar go, giving him a stern look like ‘I’m gonna get to the bottom of this mess you made’.

After I was done with Xigbar, I went back to wondering aimlessly within the maze of characters; and then I had caught sight of Riku, just like a game of Where’s Wally, except he was only in his t-shirt; he did not have his jacket on. I changed my tone from serious (when I was talking to the Organisation) back to child-like in order to be able to connect with my dream guide. I had found him and so was afraid of losing him again; so ran towards him as I cried out; “Riku, Riku please!”.

It’s as if this time he knew what was coming as he tried to ignore the fact that I was around. However, I kept begging and pleading with him, going; “Riku please! All you have to do is tell me something about Sora and how you connect with him”. Riku eventually gave in as he said “alright fine” and then gave a slight sigh, looking annoyed. He then pulled me close to him so no one else could hear, supposedly nuzzling me as he said “he’s the only one that I feel I can talk to”. It seems like he was rushing an answer as I could tell from his energy that he was trying to hold back his emotions regarding Sora.

Riku then immediately asked me “is that enough information for you?”. As I was still in a frantic state but happy that he finally answered, I went “yes thank you” and more. He took no hesitation then to release me and let me go; and I think he was glad that I decided to let him go. Once again, I yelled out thank you to Riku as I walked away and got ready to depart the scene altogether. I was now in the black void again but was a slow glow of stars, acting like a horizon and while I still had the chance, I decided to say thank you to everyone. I said something like “Thank you for your time Kingdom Hearts! And remember Riku, we still have two more things to do!”, hoping that the message would be able to reach them.

I must have become lucid at some point as I seemed to gain satisfaction with all I had done, and declared that I would finally be ready to wake up. So then dream went back to the ‘false awakening’ bedroom, in which I realised I had beaten the alarm clock (there was about 45 minutes left) and was so relieved; the Kingdom Hearts scene felt so long yet the clock showed less time. And then I woke up again to get to waking life, where my real bedroom clock said 10:43 AM and I was surprised that such a big dream took almost no time at all.

Dream No. 665 - I Can Do Better Than Him
Lucid Dream 36

I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, I was doing things around my house when I wanted to try and see Riku again. However like usual, these days, maintaining a stable dream environment seemed very difficult. The dream showed me actually lying in bed, like it was morning; and my grandma came into the room with a mischeivous smile on her face. She came up to the bed and started rapidly and forceully tapping at me to ‘wake me up’.

The dream morphed to make me think I was now awake, but then I somehow managed to realise that I was still in it, and therefore I realised that I had become spontaneously lucid. The next segment in this dream would prove so, and I used this scene to be able to gain enough control so I could seek Riku with a clear intention. I took out my phone and went on the Discord forums to check messages from my friends.

Every time I would look at the time, it was different, and not just by a minute. That’s when my lucidity really started to pick up. I then tried changing the time on purpose a few times. I finally declared that if I could command the time to be 1:07, I would be successful. I looked back and the time was 1:06, however, it only clicked over to 1:07 after a few seconds; so I deemed the command to be executed pretty accurately. I finally felt I was ready to go and look for Riku and left my bedroom to initiate the new venture.

Initially, I was going to call Riku myself but then I walked past my dad in the sitting room next to the kitchen; so I asked him if he could help me find Riku. I was pleasantly surprised when my dad agreed and actually went off to look for Riku himself. He went onto the back verandah and said something, though I panicked as my dad was not asking for Riku by name, and so I was worried that the dream would interpret his request to summon somebody stupid. However, I perceived an energy wafting off my dad and into the house like he was confident he knew what was doing.

However, I was still freaked out about the fact he didn’t specifically call for Riku, but I felt that Riku was coming, so I ran outside through the back door as fast as I could, in hopes that I would intercept Riku, with that fear of him passing right by. I sprinted to the bottom of the backyard but then I hear the verandah door opening, with Riku stepping out in his KH3 appearance and I was dumbfounded. So I realised he had appeared at the top of the backyard like I predicted but he went the opposite way to what I thought; straight into the house.

He looked at me amused, like in a ‘silly girl’ kind of way. His clothes were as they as were in cutscenes; his t-shirt being purely white and his jacket in the dream looked like it was from black luxury suede. However, his pants were slightly different; they were plainly black with no belts and buckles on the legs. With my feeling of dumb surprise still wearing off; I moonjumped up over the rails and onto the verandah to go to Riku. He greeted me with a casual hug; not like last time where he almost squashed me to death. He was also rightly lankier and taller than me in this dream.

What he did next, I wasn’t expecting though. As we went through the house to go out the back door, Riku picked me up and began to carry me. Then as he carried me down the sloping backyard again, I started to study how he felt. He was much thinner compared to 18-Volt and with the way Riku was holding me, some parts of his body felt rigid and uncomfortable to me. Heading into the lower part of the backyard, I remember saying to Riku “I think 18-Volt does a better job at carrying me”. Riku wasn’t offended but there was a feeling of ‘oh you think that do you?’ and as if he was now out to find a way to 1-Up 18-Volt; Riku was silent in this dream. Although Riku was more joltier and uncomfortable, he did have the advantage over 18-Volt of moving quicker.

It’s when we got to the door to the garage that Riku struggled to hold me and open it at the same time. There was a time where I felt like I was almost going to fall backwards off him as he struggled to scoop me back up, but that all stopped when he finally opened the door and he perched me up on himself again. I could tell that Riku felt bad whenever he struggled with me as he was keeping in mind that 18-Volt was ‘better than him’. He continued to carry me precariously into the front yard and up the hill towards the local primary school.

Part way up the hill, there became a point where Riku realised that he just wasn’t good at carrying me, and so he gave up and put me down; but he wasn’t done. This was the part where he was going to show that he was better than 18-Volt. He started to float and get into a hovering, sitting position; I knew he was going to take me somewhere. In-fact, I realised that he was going to take me to the world of Kingdom Hearts!

He patted his hands on his lap, telling me to come and sit on him, so I did. However, as he started to ascend into the air, I couldn’t see his hands anywhere and so I panicked as once again, it felt like I was going to lose my balance and fall off him, but sideways in this case. I shouted in a fluster, telling Riku that I needed to be secured. I remember specifically saying “If you’re doing interdimensional travel, then you need to be wearing a seatbelt”. Riku finally realised, lowered us back down and put his arms around me as loosely as possible, still having no ‘secure’ effect whatsoever; like he still didn’t know what he was doing. I said “tighter” and so he tightened his grip slightly, but it wasn’t even near enough. So I kept saying “tighter” until I could finally feel his arms securely and there was no gap between them and my stomach; I remember I had to say it 5 times.

He was finally then able to ascend into the day time sky and when he descended with me again, it still felt like the same area (the hill at the bottom of my court), but it wasn’t day or night. As Riku helped me off him, he told me that we were now in Kingdom Hearts; in this dimension he spoke, as if he was now confident because we were on his side of the realms. And in return, I now became unsure of myself in some ways, as well as where we were because I didn’t realise any difference.

I kept asking in a confused tone ‘we’re in Kingdom Hearts?’ because I couldn’t see any sign that said so. That’s when Riku walked slightly down the hill with me and pointed into the sky as he said “there it is, that’s Kindgom hearts”. I looked up and realised the heart shaped moon in the sky; but to me, it seemed like it was the sun and the moon at the same time, hence no definitive day or night time. After I had examined it for long enough and the reality had set in, I turned my attention back to the streets and Riku began conversing with me. I couldn’t remember what he said but it seemed like he was telling me more about Kingdom Hearts, and he sounded very fond of the stories he was telling me.

Eventually though, it seemed like Riku and I were all caught up, and for once, there was no longer a purpose for him to be around, and so he gave me a farewell and then actually walked off and left the scene, but I was satisfied. This was a lucid dream and so I realised I was still in control. I wanted to do more but I couldn’t think of anything to do, so I continued to walk aimlessly up the hill. As I got nearly to the top of the hill though, a sudden realisation had hit me and I needed Riku back; I remembered I wanted to ask him about his age as per the task I had set in my waking life dream journal. I became anxious as I thought I wouldn’t be able to get him back. After some hesitation, I urged out to the sky “Riku! One more question!”, hoping that I would be heard.

Something happened; the dream turned into to an empty void, but an entirely white one, and I was all alone in it. But shortly, Riku appeared again (same KH3 appearance but in all default clothes including pants), but this time as somewhat of a giant; he was only two or three times bigger than me, but it was still an obvious discrepancy. He got on his knees and leant over me to hear what I had to say. Then I asked him “What is your age between the number of 16 and 25?”. At first, he didn’t seem to get what I was saying but after I repeated the question, he got it, but didn’t seem to receive it well.

His anxiety spiked through the roof as the question had seemed to catch him off-guard; almost like he wanted to prepare an answer before-hand but couldn’t. His eyes (and eyebrows) gained the look of sheer horror as he rapidly mumbled and stuttered but managed to utter out an “18” amongst it all. It’s almost like he knew I was going to lock his age once he said it, and so he did not want to make the decision so impulsively. He continued babbling nonsense afterwards like he thought I wouldn’t be satisfied with his response. Being lucid, I knew he needed to stop and calm down, so I said over the top of him, “It’s okay. Thank you Riku” in which he then was able to stop but still looked flustered. Then I came in and put my hands on his sides, trying to hug the giant Riku in which his panic competely stopped and he looked rather delighted. Now I was truly done and the dream took me back to the hill.

I started to slowly walk back down the hill and while doing so, reflected on the previous scene. The emotions were raw as I recall how panicked Riku was. I then thought that perhaps I wouldn’t lock in his age straight away; that I would assume he was 18 but allow him a revision when he would be feeling more confident. Then I finally had nothing else to do as I stared off into the distance of what seemed to be a mix of my suburb and Twilight town (the Kingdom Hearts sky was now pinkish with an actual sun on the horizon); so I declared to wake up.

Dream No. 643 - Looking For A Birthday Card
Lucid Dream 35

I don’t remember how this dream started. From where I do remember, I was at a very distorted version of Waverley Gardens shopping centre. It was bigger than in real life, with a vast number of walkways, and it also had a lot of features mixed from Dandenong Plaza as well. For the time being, I was walking around the shops and looking for an “8th birthday” card for my brother. At one point, I arrived at a card shop and started sorting through their cards that were sitting in a big tray. I found a card with an 8 on it but I didn’t like the look of it, so I left.

I went back towards the area of the shopping centre that I started at, feeling frustrated that I couldn’t find a good card and that there weren’t many other card shops either. A thought had entered me though; not one to say that I was dreaming, but I seemed to gain an essence of common sense and problem solving initiative as if I was awake, therefore I classify the rest of the dream as lucid. I realised that I was not supposed to look for an 8th birthday card, but rather a 25th; my brother would be turning 25 this year (also true IRL!). I also realised I could just call a dream guide and get them to help me find a card shop; so I proceeded to call for 18-Volt.

A man approached me, wearing 18-Volt’s clothes, but he was skinnier than usual and he also had light skin, also not wearing his glasses or headphones. Although the surrounding energy was telling me this was 18-Volt, I was doubting if this was really him. However, he just stood there, not doing anything and rather just patiently waiting for me to come closer to him; the dream also didn’t do anything to tamper with his presence (I felt like I was in control, hence lucid). After a few seconds of hesitation, I went in to hug him and as we hugged, that’s when his skin became darker. Though when he spoke, he did not have an American accent, rather a Balkan accent which I was weirded out by. However as the dream would progress, his speaking would no longer phase me.

I told him I was looking for a card shop but couldn’t find one anywhere that sold decent cards. I forgot what he said, but he put an arm around me and we walked off back through the shopping centre. There were a few moments within in the dream where I would get stressed, nervous or frustrated about certain things. 18-Volt seemed to be aware of this and every time he noticed me shaking, stuttering or excessively sighing, he demanded that we stopped where we were. Straight away, he would pull me into a hug and say some reassuring phrase in his Balkan accent, calming me down immediately.

We reached the front of Big W, where 18-Volt now went behind me and hugged that way as we walked through the store. However, the dream camera changed to third-person mode from an aerial view and a middle-aged lady was seen sneaking up behind 18-Volt and touching him in an inappropriate way. 18-Volt immediately turned his head back in shock and looked absolutely disgusted, gritting his teeth at her, urging her to let him go as he still kept a hold of me.

There ended up being an entire sub-scene where the lady was shown by herself and her face had the most horrifying look on it, this most twisted, exaggerated evil smile as she spoke of her plot to get 18-Volt for herself. I can’t remember anything she said though, just what her intention was. And a part of the sub-scene also showed a man beside her, looking very similar to her as if he was her brother, but the dream at the very least portrayed him as a ‘sidekick’ to her. I myself felt all this tense and nervous energy as this sub-scene was playing.

Back to the normal course of the dream; the lady was in the distance again, but she quickly approached 18-Volt and actually knocked him unconscious! She then sent all these ‘enemies’ in for me to deal with. I realised that her plan, so she could have 18-Volt to herself, was to get rid of me but to do that, she had to make 18-Volt inactive for a while so he couldn’t protect me. I screamed and felt like crying when I realised what the lady had done to 18-Volt and what my fate was. I can’t remember what happened towards the very end of this dream.

Dream No. 553 - Planes And Grapes
Lucid Dream 34

I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was walking into the gates of Killester College. I was looking around the place for WB but I couldn’t find her. As I continued to wander around, the environment seemingly turned into a similar surrounding to my primary school. I then had the intention to ride some sort of plane with my teddy bear guard friends. I see planes, all identical to each other, flying in the sky but none of them are coming down. I ended up thinking to myself, “Have I missed the plane?”.

Eventually though, one of the fighter planes came down and it looked exactly the same as the blue planes from Crash Bandicoot 3. The teddy piloting that plane was Sierra (an OC in my stories). She had the exact same appearance as I would envision her to have within my drawings. We did speak but I forgot what we said to each other. The plane revved up but she didn’t necessarily fly it anywhere for the time being. The dream ended up moving to the next scene.

I was now in the car with my family and we were driving along the Monash Freeway. I looked at a sign which said one road name on it; when I looked back though, I realise it had changed and this had caused me to become lucid. My parents told me that when we reached our destination, we could have to drive the car into an elevator. This had me very concerned and so I stuck my head out the window and kept calling for 18-Volt. I started to feel that tingling sensation to force awake and so I retreated. Further on the drive, I saw signs that indicated not the maximum speed but rather the minimum speed on each lane.

The dream then ends me up at the supposed location but I end up meeting up with Sierra who flew the plane down. I figured that we all had to wear headsets. In the meantime, I was worried and was panicking that there was no sign of 18-Volt. Eventually though, he came out of the elevator, meaning I now had a sense of relief. He started off by interacting with my parents as well as some others but he came to me shortly after.

There was this feeling coming down on me to suggest that there wasn’t much time before we had to drive our vehicles into the elevator. I got stressed and urged 18-Volt to put a headset on, He stepped insight the small fighter plane and picked up one of the beige headsets. When the dream showed him next though, he was still wearing his blue headset. His appearance was based on Warioware Gold but then he was slightly different and also strangely very small in size. Despite his size though, he had managed to hold me and it still felt snug.

The dream then moved to the next scene but I was now lo longer lucid. I was at my other grandparent’s place and UD (Now UU - Married) and AD were there as well. There was this weird meal being served up for lunch called "Agarto". My grandma then showed me a machine that she uses to make wine but in the way the grapes would be crushed, I found this very gruesome and in a way, scary. The grapes would swell up to a humongous size and then they would explode. Once all the grapes had swollen up and then exploded, creeping me out, the dream ended.

Dream 549 A - The Wrong Direction (Lucid Dream 33)
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was designing some sort of complex that I could potentially do elevator practise in, I ended up drawing a rough sketch with fine-liner on some paper. I was then flying over a land of hills and also, what seemed to be a realistic version of Princess Peach’s castle. I discovered that I was wearing a weird version of my school summer dress. First of all, the sleeves were long and so I had to button them to get them to an ideal length. The fabric was very thick and also incorporated some parts of the winter shirt. The dress wasn’t very summery overall and rather made me very hot wearing it.

For the next scene, I was in the backyard of my own house and my grandma was asking me to go and get some things for her from Stud Park Shopping Centre. The balance of cash I was going to use was in the currency of Simoleons. From all the items she told me to get, I realised that I wasn’t going to have enough money. She ended up taking a few items off the list and told me just to get the special ham and something else that I can’t remember. I flew off like I did before but this time to find the shopping centre.

Throughout my travels, I was really confident about which direction to go. I said to myself that I was going the right way if I saw buildings and other objects that I hadn’t seen before. I ended up at what seemed like an actually version of the complex that I was drawing earlier but it was nowhere near complete and the elevators had not been constructed yet. I was actually hoping that the elevators weren’t ready yet because for the time being, I had something else to do and didn’t want to be shaken by the sight of my fears.

I figured I was lost and so I started to call for 18-Volt, hoping that he could take me to Stud Park Shopping Centre. I noticed that as I was calling him, the dream was trying to wake me up. At the very last moment, when the dream got really tingly, I actually stopped my thoughts, hoping that this would save the dream. Then a bowl appeared, sitting on top of a stool and in that bowl were weird small objects with different coloured lights of energy on them, red, blue, yellow and green, each colour I guessed to represent the elements (fire, ice, electricity and earth).

As I stared at all the objects in the bowl, I centred my mind around anticipating 18-Volt’s entrance. Each time I have a thought, there is a sub-scene that represents that thought. In some of those sub-scenes, there was noise but then no one came. Other times, 18-Volt only entered slightly but then the sub-scene went away and there was nothing. It was about the 10th time that I got lucky and now there was energy suggesting that 18-Volt was actually coming into the building.

His appearance was as he appears in Warioware Twisted cutscenes but it was a real life version, with actual flesh, emphasising his baggy cheeks and double chin; his flesh seemed to be a whiter tone than usual though. The dream camera showed him carefully going up the stairs and then walking over to me. Just staring up at him for a few seconds as he stood in-front of me made me feel very relaxed. Soon though, he got to asking me what was wrong and then he whipped me up onto him in order to be carried. He headed outside and proceeded to walk in what he thought was the direction of Stud Park Shopping Centre.

There is then a sub-scene where I am interacting with a group of people but MN is always lurking in the background and occasionally, he tries to make his way closer to me; the dream emphasises his creepy smile. The dream then moves to another sub-scene where all the Warioware characters are at some sub-terrain arcade venue and each and every one of them was given an alternate outfit. Some of the outfits I remember seeing were Mona’s, Jimmy’s and 9-Volt’s but I can’t remember what they were wearing. I then went over to 18-Volt and saw that he was wearing a long white sleeved shirt with a red tie, brown vest and matching brown pants, and then some brown shoes at the bottom of a different colour tone. I came closer to him to actually physically examine some features of his outfit and then also complimenting his looks.

The dream then went back to the main scene and now 18-Volt was carrying me under a freeway bridge. He said to me that my approach wasn’t quite right and he asked me if I had passed Glen Waverley yet, I told him no, so he must have been hinting that Stud Park Shopping Centre was after Glen Waverley. We then ended up on some small wooden bridges over what seemed like a flat, marshy swamp.

On the second bridge, there was a big group of people including MN, wearing the exact same clothes as in the earlier sub-scene. As soon as I saw MN giving me that creepy grin, I began to quiver. Surprisingly, 18-Volt rotated himself so that I was facing MN and tells me “it’s okay” as he gave me a quick pat on the back. My dad ended up approaching MN and tapping him on the shoulder, talking to him so as to take his attention away from me. Eventually, 18-Volt walked off with me to continue our way and the dream ended.

Dream 549 B - Toilet Troubles
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was in some unknown auditorium when there was something going on related to my high school’s Annie production. There was one area where a lot of WB’s family members were sitting and when I sat in my seat, they all looked disgusted towards me and some of them even moved away and walked out. I eventually found out though that I was sitting in the wrong area along with a lot of other girls and so we were escorted by staff to the right area. Apparently we were supposed to be in what was known as the General Admission area.

Later on in the dream, there is a very long line of girls waiting for the bathroom and as I look further towards the back of the line, I can see WB looking like she had been crying. I came up to her and was aware she had been hitting herself over a massive mistake she had made in the show. Just by energy, I could feel that she thought I was going to bring up that mistake to her, but surprisingly for her, I told her to not be so hard on herself and to rather move on from her mistake.

I had then approached another bathroom complex which was actually a weird room in the middle of the main foyer area. This old man came up to me and explained some of the features he had put in there. Apparently, he had installed a system that peaked because he was sick of all the girls yelling, so the system would sensor and clip voices that went above a certain volume. There were no cubicles in this place and no toilets either. There was a long bench lined all the way, high up around the walls and there was a long dumping area tray underneath. What’s worse was that there were a lot of girls in there that didn’t seem to mind each other’s company…

>> Mature content! Do not read further if you feel awkward about toilet situations.
I got myself centred on one part of the bench and awkwardly, there was a girl right next to me. I was hard to begin pooping but when I managed, only a small amount seemed to come out but in a really fast and messy way. At first, it landed in the tray but as more came out, the chunks dispersed at a wider range and there actually ended up being a big pile of it on the tiles. I felt super embarrassed as I was cringing, aware of the fact that I was high up and so there was nothing I could do. That’s when WB actually came in with a broom and a cloth and actually ended up cleaning it up; the dream ended there.

Dream 549 C - How To Clean A Cooking Ring
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was trying to find my way back from some place but I came across a really confusing obstacle. There was actually a fork in the road, actually splitting Heatherton Road into two possible directions. This perplexed me and stopped me from continuing home. I decided that it was time to call 18-Volt, asking him to take me home.

A few seconds later, my mum was walking with me and we decided to take one fork of the road anyway. There were a building that had a sign on it that said “Penni” and because of this, my mum and I were debating to how to properly spell the name Penny. I stated that it was spelt as “Penny”, where as she tried to say it was spelt as “Pennie”, like the sign but with an E at the end. In the end, I ended up winning the debate but I think it was because my mum came up in disgust.

18-Volt then finally came walking up the road that we previously walked. His appearance was a distorted mix of many of his in-game appearances, I can’t really describe it. He was wearing his green jacket and pants though with his white runners, blue 3D glasses and blue headphones. I had my green talking teddy bear friend with me as well it seemed, his name was Selvian. Just as I was about to state what was wrong to 18-Volt, my mum actually interrupted with her own problem!! I was outraged and tried to get the attention back but Selvian tapped me on the leg (because he was small) and told me to let her finish.

Then my mum asked 18-Volt how to clean a silicon cooking ring that had dried blood stuck in all the little holes, actually pulling out from her pocket and showing him. He took the ring and examined it, then telling her to make sure the sponge was soapy and full with hot water and to hold it on a section of the ring from half a minute to a minute. I actually ended up taking the ring and doing a physical demonstration, restating what 18-Volt said as I did each relevant step.

He then turned to me to get my problem and I told him about the fork in the road. I asked him which one would be the right one and that I wanted to go towards Noble Park. As I was talking about that road, the dream camera showed the section of the Heatherton Road boom gates at the train tracks, which is one of the landmarks I had the intention to pass. I forgot what 18-Volt said or did but the dream ended there.

Dream 549 D - Meet My Family
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was at my house in the sitting room when I saw my mum walk out of my study room. I was actually surprised to see her as I said to her, “Aren’t you supposed to be with dad at Apollo Bay?”. I forgot what she said in return. She then told me to start getting ready as she was going to take to one of the swimming pulls in a suburb that was a bit further away from the city than where we lived. She asked me about the place and I said that someone I knew had posted a photo of the place on Facebook.

Some time later, I ended up telling my mum that I wanted her to meet my dream guide. I forgot what was said exactly but I can recall some of the details. She agreed and so I walked around the house, calling for 18-Volt at full volume as I searched every corner. I specifically remember yelling for him and I actually questioned if I was awake or not; despite not knowing my answer, I continued shouting as I peered around a curtain behind one of the couches.

Eventually, my mum told me to come over to her and said that we were going to leave soon. I started panicking and said that I really wanted her to meet him. I was flapping my jaws, trying to convince her and I told her more about who dream guides are and what they do. I noticed I wasn’t dressed very well and so I sighed and said, “Although I’m usually not comfortable with men seeing me naked, I don’t mind this time because he’s a dream guide and they help me with some very personal stuff”. My mum said okay and told me to hurry with a last chance at calling him. As I was now frantically calling, I looked down and a huge sigh of relief washed over me as I saw I was in my night-dress; so no, I wasn’t naked.

When I thought all hope was gone, 18-Volt walked out of the front room and seemed to be rushing towards the back door. His appearance was Warioware Gold but with realistic flesh and actual cotton for his jacket. His outfit and accessories were the same as usual, only his jacket and pants were black instead of green but it still suited him. I tried to get 18-Volt’s attention but he didn’t seem to stop, which surprised me somewhat. I actually had to go after him and catch him before it was too late.

So I picked up the pace and caught up to him just in the nick of time, in the laundry just as he was about to open the door. Still, he opened the door and so I grabbed him and started pulling at him by his sleeve, the opposite way with full force, like a toddler when having a tantrum with their parents. As I was pulling, I said to him with a struggle in my voice, “I want you to come and meet and my family”. 18-Volt seemed to suddenly realise as he became startled and stopped, slowly shutting the door and turning to face me.

He seemed honoured that he wanted me to meet them as he made a subtle awe sound and opened his arms up for a hug (he said more hut I forgot what it was). His hug was a bit tighter than usual and he was squeezing me for a very long time, for what seemed like almost a minute, but it was still very pleasant and at the same time, I had my arms around him in return, noticing as I moved them around slightly on his back. Once he released me, he went over to the corner next to the washing machine and stood still so I could jump and latch onto him in order for him to carry me. I ended up being too low but it wasn’t a problem as he have me a huge jolt, bouncing me upwards and quickly fastening me so now I was at a comfortable height.

He then walked me out of the laundry and we went over to my mum. I then told 18-Volt to go downstairs so we could see my grandma and my brother. As we were walking, the dream showed me perched on him and his head was oddly smaller than usual now, so he wasn’t providing as much shade or shelter. Though when the dream camera went back to the normal perspective, I felt completely comfortable and relaxed again.

As we got to the stairs, I actually became somewhat apprehensive and nervous for 18-Volt. I was wondering whether he’d put me down or not because if he still carried me, he could lose his balance and fall down the stairs. Still, nothing seemed to phase 18-Volt as he marched down those stairs, still holding me securely and remaining as straight as a steel rod. Just as we got to the bottom of the stairs, my brother peeked his head out of the his bedroom door and 18-Volt greeted him.

The last person to meet was my grandma but we didn’t know where she was yet. Also, the dream gave me that tingly sensation that always happened when it was about to fade out on me. I consciously begged the dream to give me a bit mote time and it seemed to go back to normal. I purely believe that this time, the dream was only trying to warn me that it was going to end soon. My grandma ended up coming from the front yard and as she opened the door, exchanging communications with 18-Volt, that’s when I woke up.

Dream No. 512 - The Real Sneaky Gamer
Lucid Dream 32

I don’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember, I was in a bedroom that seemed to actually be the realistic version of Sneaky Gamer from Warioware! In the first scene, there was supposedly something that was about to happen and Bentley was hiding under a table, shaking and tucked away into his shell. I forgot what else happened in this scene.

The dream then decided to replay the scene but then the events in this scene were also different. The bedroom had the appearance half way between the Sneaky Gamer bedroom and my own bedroom. The walls of the room were green and it was a double panel window but the bed and window were in the same position as they would be in my own room. All furniture had the appearance of Sneaky Gamer but were in the positions like in my real life bedroom.

I looked at the clock in there once and there was nothing odd, the time was 6:11. I looked back at the clock though and noticed that the time had changed without even a minute passing by, even if it was just a subtle time change to 6:14. I looked at the clock again and it kept variating slightly between all these 6:-- times. But after a looking a few times, some of the lights were not working and so the numbers weren’t whole anymore. I now realised that this was a dream.

As I now had an extra awareness about me, the scene now felt real and like I was actually in Sneaky Gamer myself. Even the noises were playing like in the game with 5-Volt would be approaching. I felt extremely scared but felt I couldn’t call for 18-Volt or I may be heard by 5-Volt. It seems that just being really scared and showing the raw emotion was enough for 18-Volt to quietly come into the room (in his WarioWare Gold appearance). And as he sat on the foot of the bed, extending his arm out towards me, I woke up.

Dream No. 510 - Separated Sections

Dream 510 A - Baby School Boy
I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, it was a distorted version of CP (who is deceased in real life). The only thing that was an accurate size was his but the rest of him was tiny, like the size of a newborn baby. His mum was also there, standing on the sidelines (she is a teacher at my primary school in real life) but I forgot what she was doing. CP was trying to communicate with me but I couldn’t make out what he was trying to say. I ended up picking him up and carrying him around like he was an actual baby. That’s all I can remember about this dream.

Dream 510 B - Scary Volt (Lucid Dream 31)
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was in a completely unknown area. I ended up coming across JSc and her friend BBe. I didn’t really do much with BBe but when it came to JSc, although she was quite cold in this dream, I felt a sort of dream guide energy coming off her and I whispered to myself how I seemed to feel safe around her.

Both her and BBe had just randomly set themselves up to lie down on the ground. I decided to go over and lay next to JSc. I made another comment but I forgot what it was exactly. I stated at the end of it though, “I declare this a lucid dream!”. I then asked everyone under the sun, including both JSc and BBe, if they knew where 18-Volt. The dream was rushing through this metal tunnel and at the end of it was supposedly 18-Volt… But the figure looked nothing like him. It was a creepy white man with red glowing eyes and this forced me awake.

Dream 510 C - The Dodgy Phone
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, my family and I were seemingly coming back from Geelong but it was night time. The way we came back made it so we would go through Glen Waverley but I asked my parents why we didn’t come back the way we normally would; I don’t remember their response.

We ended up in the area around Brandon Park shopping centre but I was now by myself. Especially because it was dark, the streets around me felt very unsafe, so I felt like I needed a dream guide. This time I was hesitant to call for 18-Volt as I had actively remembered how the dream screwed me over for the past two times in a row. I was thankful thought that this time, Dreamy WB appeared. She was wearing some skin toned jacket with a yellow and black chequered vest on top and on the bottom were plain greyish-black jeans and white sneakers. Her hair was in the style of long, skinny braids.

After a short while of talking to her, I realised that I was cold and so she gave me her vest. She didn’t look happy about it though as the jacket she was wearing underneath was very thin that it could almost make for a shirt instead. As we got further away from the shopping centre and more into the suburban streets, I stated to her that I felt unsafe in the area. Although she had a bit more a cold, stern energy in this dream, she offered me her hand in which we ultimately ended up linking arms.

She mentioned to me about getting my phone out and trying to call 18-Volt that way. I pulled my phone out of my pocket but it was easy to get access to the home page. It was three step lock and I had to pass all three stages to get in with no troubles. The first time I slid the dots, two stages were red and one was yellow, so I was denied. The second time, two stages were green but one stage was yellow, so I was allowed access but with a complication.

The complication was something along the lines of that if I spent over 0000 credits, something would happen. There were two options on the lock screen. One was to cancel access or the second option was about the 0000 thing. Before I had a chance to think, Dreamy WB tapped the 0000 option. I became really freaked out and panicked but Dreamy WB reassured me that it was over zero credits, so if I didn’t spend anything, I would be fine. I got led to doing other things on my phone though and didn’t end up calling 18-Volt at all. That’s all I can remember about this dream.

Dream 510 D - The Sweetest Burger
I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, my dad and I were in a completely unknown area. We were mentioning about how my mum replicates some restaurant burgers for dinner sometimes and so he was telling me what kind of burger he would like. His idea was some sort of berry jam, brie cheese and marshmellows. At first, I thought he didn’t like marshmellows but then I realised that it was only my mum that didn’t like marshmellows.

Later on in the dream, my grandma and I were at a distorted version of Waverley Gardens shopping centre but I forgot what we were doing there. A lot of the corridors were very skinny and more of the shops were closed off with construction plaster and so there was almost nothing open. That’s all I can remember about this dream.

Dream 510 E - School Orchestra
I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, I was in this massive unknown room which had a few rises for an orchestra. The orchestra was being led by my grade four teacher Mrs. Br who was really strict in this dream. There were members from my primary school and high school in this dream.

For some unknown reason, JSe came up to me, took my music sheets off me, and scrunched them up in a rage. Mrs. Br then said something like “If anyone else loses their music sheets and asks for another one, I will be putting them on the internet trash archive because I will not be printing anymore copies!”. I started to feel slightly upset and didn’t know what to do because JSe took mine. I heard him heavily sigh in the background as he came to me to give mine back, unscrunching the sheets but now they looked really ugly.

Mrs. Br had asked what instrument I was playing and I said I was a vocalist. She said that she would move the vocalists into the middle at the back. I didn’t agree though because that means that the vocalists would be drowned out by all the loud instruments. The dream ended there.

Dream No. 509 - Separated Sections

Dream 509 A - No Volt For You (Lucid Dream 30)
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was looking at some pictures on the internet on my mobile phone. On one of the pictures, I noticed a distorted looking cat on a printed carpet that I realised wasn’t mine. I stated to myself the fact that the picture was distorted and so I then said to myself, “this has got to be a lucid dream”.

I was now walking on the streets at night time and my main intention was to call for 18-Volt. I didn’t get far at all. On the immediate first instance, the dream took no hesitation in initiating a forced fade-out on me. Well, we know what happened here… I woke up!!

Dream 509 B - A Better Target
I don’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember, I was looking for Christmas presents for my two cousins. I noticed I was in a large Target store and the clothes and toys there were of a really high quality. The dream showed some of the outfits I picked for the girl cousin. That’s all I can remember about this dream.

Dream No. 485 - Separated Sections

Dream 485 A - Groundhog Graduation
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, it was year twelve event again. It was the last day of school and so the year level were going to be having their graduation celebrations. The morning was spent in the library and while everyone had to read sort sort of long script and remember the entirety of it. I was given a book by SD'M and it had suggestions of cool stuff to do and hobbies to get up to over the Christmas Holidays… I think I got the better end of the deal. At the end of the session, Ms L told everyone that they would only have a 10 minute break and had to be back in the library on time.

During the break, I went into to one of the classrooms to attempt to say farewell to a few of the teachers. Ms Ta. noticed me and started yelling at me. I then pointed to the back of the room and said “What about everyone else that came in?! You’re not getting angry at them!”. She then answered, “I know but you just barged in through the door without knocking and you’ve been running around everywhere in here”… I clearly don’t remember any fast-paced movement.

I then went to the toilets and I found myself mistakenly to be in the men’s toilets. I tried to get out as quick as possible but just I was outside the doorway, I was really badly verbally bullied by a large group of boys and some girls. Within the group was an old granny that started yelling at everyone in defence. The granny and I actually got along with each other and spoke well.

Then dream then went back into the library and now the year level of girls was doing further celebration preparation. Everyone was seated at the main side of the library in a big circle and the guest speaker was CW, supported by her mum RW. CW was telling us what her graduation celebrations were like a few years ago. That’s all I can remember for this dream.

Dream 485 B - Mulgrave's Special Gust (Lucid Dream 29)
In the first scene, I was on the oval which was next to the local primary school, just on the other side of the linking footpath. It seemed to be dusk when this scene was playing. I was coaching 18-Volt’s fourth grade teacher on how to provide effective and meaningful discipline to her students. She wasn’t physically in the scene though, rather I seemed to be shouting to the sky, also figuring that she could see any movement I did on the oval.

I seemed to act somewhat like Jo Frost in this scene. I also spoke a lot but I have forgotten everything I said, I’ll recap what I can. The first thing I told this teacher was that a 15 minute timeout was the most ideal length. I then said, “If the timeout is too short and the student doesn’t have enough time to think, then how on Earth does the student know what they did wrong?”. I also stated to the teacher that she needed to tell the student what they did wrong.

The next bit reminds me of a combination of the Supernanny naughty corner and stay in bed technique. I said to her, “For the first time the student exits timeout, say to them, you’re in timeout, the second time, say to them, timeout, and when you take them back the third time, you say nothing”. The next I said was “And whatever you do, don’t make them stay back after school for one and a half hours just to waste their time, that’s the worst thing you could do”.

After that, I now saw a very feint hologram of all the school students floating around the oval (in-fact you almost couldn’t see them at all). After looking at them for a while, I yelled out “Now if I can demonstrate on one of your students, anyone…?”, hoping that someone would voluntarily come to me. Indeed, a hologram of 18-Volt came up to me in his Game and Wario cover art appearance and he was slightly more visible then everyone else although he was still fairly feint. I then spoke to him as if I was placing him into timeout but he kept a straight face as he knew I was only demonstrating. This marked the end of the first scene.

For the second scene, I was still in the local area but was lower down, closer to the shopping centre, walking up the footpath beside the main road. I was constantly think about 18-Volt and I said to myself “Herr, I wanna see if I can become lucid in this dream”. My eyes were now darting everywhere as I headed up the street, trying to read every single piece of writing I came across. Eventually, a bus came up the road and I was reading the advertisements on the back of it… This text is what made me become lucid. I then decided I wanted to do another reality check to confirm my lucidity and it was confirmed when I read another piece of text, I forgot what the text was though.

I was then at my house, in the front room with a roll of laminated paper. At the end of the roll was a picture of 18-Volt as he would appear in WarioWare Gold. I got onto the floor, lay down next to the roll and cuddled with it. My mum then walked in and giving me a strange look while she points to the roll, asks me “who’s that?”. For a moment I felt like panicking but I immediately sat myself up, pointed to his picture on the roll and said “That’s my dream guide, 18-Volt, would you like to meet him?”. My mum was actually alright in this dream and she said yes. She then went to sit on the couch while waiting for me to get him.

I went to stand just outside the front room and then I seemed to call for 18-Volt very quietly. At some points, I almost couldn’t hear myself and so I called slightly louder. It worked this time, as I was looking across the whole main part of the house, I saw 18-Volt emerging from my bedroom. He was of the same appearance as on the roll of laminated paper. Compared to the real life game, he was slightly darker, including the tone of green on his clothing, his teeth were more gritted than they were in-game and he had more of a frown as his natural disposition.

His graphics were the same as in-game though, completely cartoony… Although he looked real enough to my lucid awareness. Once again, I actually found the fact scary that he was slowly coming towards me, avoiding all the furniture in his path as if he actually knew the route of the house. I stood there paralysed, feeling nervous but at the same time excited, my heart racing as I thought, “I can’t believe this is actually happening”. I managed to ease up when he was right in front of me though. As 18-Volt stood in-front of me, he spread his arms out and when I got right up to him, he gave me a ginormous hug. He also now had a more accurate facial expression, precisely matching all facial features and their positions in WarioWare Gold, he wasn’t frowning as much.

Once he released me, I followed behind him into the front room. He then walked over to my mum on the couch and bent down to shake her hand. My mum was on the left side of the couch and 18-Volt seated himself right side of it, closest to the door. I then came and sat in-between them, feeling really happy and at peace that my mum was actually getting along with a dream guide this time. After a while of enjoying both my mum’s and 18-Volt’s company, my mum said “I’ll leave you two to it” as she then got up and left.

I then thought about what I wanted to do while I had 18-Volt and so got up off the couch. He then got up off the couch as well and followed me back out the door and into the dining room. At first, I thought I would ask him to help me with elevator exposure again but then I said, “There actually aren’t any elevators in the house...”, so then I asked him to help me with the bathroom fan. As we walked over, we held each other in a hugging position, moving our legs in a certain sequence so we wouldn’t trip over.

I ended up opening the door to the toilet room, with 18-Volt standing and watching in the background as I flicked one of the switches. It was extremely loud and the wrong sound, so I took no hesitation in switching it off again immediately. After summoning multiple switches and none doing the right thing, being too loud or too quiet, 18-Volt came up to me and told me to try the bathroom instead. He then said he was going to leave me to fiddle around in there for a while and then he completely walked off.

It felt like almost half an hour when 18-Volt came back and he asked me how I went with whatever I was doing before. I told him and described what had happened. We kept having a friendly chat for a while, then he gave me a quick pat on the back. He then went a step further and gave me another hug. As 18-Volt was gently embracing me, I proceeded to wake up, being satisfied with the outcome of this dream.

I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, I was inside this bizarre complex that I can’t quite describe. It was a mix of inside a house, a shopping centre, it looked like a bit of everything. My other grandma was there and also she didn’t really speak in the dream, I could somehow tell that she was the one behind me being trapped in this complex. At one point, I tried to find a way out through the windows but they were bolted with a fly-screen on the outside and at one point, my grandma walked past and so I had to get away from there.

A bit later in the scene, when my grandma was gone, Young Cricket happened to appear, once again not speaking, and directed me to one of the windows. I went over to that window myself and tried to be as quiet as I could to work my way out of there so my grandma wouldn’t catch me. I thought it would just be one or two panels to open but I counted them and there was actually fifteen of them! It felt like ages but soon, air was flowing into the complex and I did not hesitate to get the heck out of there.

I was now in this completely unknown area but somehow, it felt like the inside of some game. I wasn’t myself either and rather, I was playing the perspective of Violet Parr who was wearing her casual clothes but also her mask and had this really bright purple aura around her. There were other characters in this game simulation, which I can tell were controlled by other members of the American Gamerland Podcast community. Some of the other characters included Mario, Yoshi and Sonic.

As Violet, I moon-jumped to some very high places. I was curious to see how high I could go and so that’s just what I did. She ended up on top of this very tall tower which the dream was making me think was the top of the Empire State Building in New York. The dream camera showed this lower area below where Violent was expected to land when she jumped off the tower. She jumped off with no problem but for some reason, Violet wasn’t landing anywhere close.

She was actually nowhere near the required area and rather landed on the concrete, in-fact missing the grass by just an inch. The dream camera shook as she hit the ground on impact and then I could here one member of the Gamerland Podcast community saying, “Oh oops, it look’s like Karla’s gone. I wonder what character she’ll come back as”. I didn’t end up returning though and rather the dream ended.

Dream 445 B - He's In The Sitting Room (Lucid Dream 28)
I don’t remember what happened at the start of the dream. From where I do remember, I was in the backyard and I was talking to a few people. Ever since the start of the dream, I had active intentions to seek 18-Volt but I only really got that conscious awareness when I got into the garage. Someone was following me but I forgot who it was. Then after that, the person disappeared and I seemed to be by myself.

I was now looking at the position of the cars in the garage and I believed this to be the start of my strong lucidity. First of all, it was just my mum’s car in on the left side and the right side was empty. Without the roller door opening, my grandma’s car drove itself into its usual right side position in the garage. Because I was lucid, I noticed that the car did not park very well and it was so close to my mum’s that it could scrape the side doors.

I verbally instructed for my grandma’s car to fix itself in which it started reversing. It reversed in a way that it would get closer to the other car though, so I had to instruct it to stop again. I then told the car to turn the opposite way as it reversed. Due to full consciousness, I felt somewhat frustrated at times when the car would get so close to my mum’s again. Eventually though, the car did end up fixing itself so it was correctly centred into its position in the garage.

Then it time for me to head into the house and that’s when I saw my brother downstairs. I asked him if he knew where 18-Volt was and he said he didn’t. I then decided to stick my head around the corner and look in my brother’s bedroom. I was expecting to see 18-Volt maybe sitting on the couch but he wasn’t. I then went upstairs and asked my mum if she knew where 18-Volt was. She told me “he’s in the sitting room”.

I slowly and carefully wondered into the sitting room and indeed I could perceive a hint of 18-Volt’s energy. Once again, I bent my head the other way and noticed that something was happening on the far armchair next to the window. The throw that was draped over it began to rustle… But just as 18-Volt was about to appear, the dream forced a fade-out on me

Transition (445 B -> 445 C)
I actually knew what the dream was doing! It was trying so hard to wake me but I literally bolted my eyes shut. I was in the void for a long time and at some points, I felt like I was definitely going to wake but I still kept holding on. After what felt like even a few long minutes, the dream entered into exactly the same setting and I was able to link the concept of the previous dream into this one.

Dream 445 C - I've Grown To Trust Him (Lucid Dream 28+)
This time, I started out in the dining room where I had originally asked my mum the question, “where’s 18-Volt?” but this time, I was in the area by myself. I was going to go back into the sitting room to attempt to speak to 18-Volt again but I stopped myself, with my mind telling me, “It’s not worth it. If you do that, you’re just going to wake up again”. So instead, I made the decision to head over to the kitchen and confront my mum.

Indeed, my mum was standing in the kitchen, looking as if though she had just been washing the dishes. I came to her with a look of disbelief on my face, like I felt she was the one behind the forced fade-out. But then because I was lucid, this scenario felt pretty normal, like I was dealing with her as if we were having a real life argument. I eventually gathered up the strength to speak to her.

I said, “Mum, please, like, can you please let me do this?”. Also just like in real life, she looked at me suspiciously as if I plotting something… As if. I told her, “I’m trying to make an effort here so that I can face up to my fears”. She asked me “why?” and that’s when I thought “you must be dumb or something”, I found it so hard to get through to her and her challenging ways. I said out loud to her, “Because of the work experience thing”.

I was now absolutely annoyed with my mum and her overprotective ways. I think I finally knew what she was thinking; was she thinking that maybe 18-Volt was a sleaze and that I just wanted to get out with some boy? To sum it up, she didn’t trust 18-Volt. I managed to stay calm and I told her, trying to reassure her “Mum, I’m doing this for a reason. He’s been really good to me, he’s helped me throughout some very difficult times and I’ve grown to trust him”. As I was saying this, I perceived an energy from 18-Volt again, I managed to visualise him smiling at me in a warm, humbled manner, like he could actually hear what I was saying and he was in awe of it.

My mum was trying to act like she was okay with it but deep down, I could tell that she still wasn’t convinced; she looked as sour as ever. For a moment, it looked like she was going to let me continue on with the dream and I was hoping this would be the case. But when I leased expected it, the dream faded out on me and I was back into the void.

Ending
I still wasn’t going to give up and glued my eyes shut for dear life. I was still in the void when this happened but there started to become projections of funny cat videos on Facebook to try and distract me out of my focus. Additionally, the tingly sensation increased as if I was being forcefully lifted out of the dream. Eventually, I thought to myself, “It’s okay, you’ve done well, you haven’t lost. You tackled a problem” and so I decided to wake up.

Dream No. 437 - Separated Sections

Dream 437 A - Trying On My Wardrobe
I don’t remember much about this dream; it took place at my old house. I was in my bedroom and I was trying on this huge array of clothes that I had in my wardrobe. Some fit and some didn’t, I was trying to see what clothes I needed to give away to charity. At the end of the dream, I remember specifically trying on a purple belt that I really liked the look of and so said I should wear it more often. That’s all I can remember for this dream.

Dream 437 B - Just Come As You Are (Lucid Dream 27)
The dream started with me at my other grandparents’ house, although I forgot what was specifically going on. When I went into the sitting room, there was mention of some Wii game simulation that I would be a part of. I then entered into the scene of the Wii game simulation, it was some kind of snow slide with a dark frosty sky. 18-Volt could be seen from the back and he was realistically textured. The dream also changed his clothing to be a short-sleeved maroon coloured t-shirt and medium toned denim jeans. His skin was a bit lighter than usual and he had brown frizzy but somewhat spiky hair and it wasn’t tied up either; rather it was was a shorter haircut overall. He also wore glasses with clear lenses that had thick black frames around them.

So first, the dream showed 18-Volt from the back but then it went over to my perspective, where I was sitting on his lap as he slid. He had me strapped in with his arms, having them placed around my stomach, as I leaned back, sinking my upper back into his chest. The environment around us was cold but I rather felt very warm and perceived 18-Volt’s temperature to be near hot, almost as if he operated like a heater. As 18-Volt leaned back slightly as he was sliding, I almost felt like falling asleep at some points.

I was then on the slide again but this time, I was by myself. There were soon these paper obstacles that I can’t exactly describe but I aimed to jump on each and every one of them. At the end of this slide run, this holographic board was shown and apparently it showed who I went with for each go. I went with 18-Volt for about the first six or seven times and then after that, I rode with some other characters, including Waluigi one time, which I actually felt awkward about when I found out.

The dream then changed scenes and I was back in the main dimension with my mum. We were talking about our visit to the other grandparents’ house although I forgot what was specifically said. We were now in our local area, near the primary school and we entered into this stranger’s house. Back in their front yard, just under the carport, my mum and I were discussing about what bows to choose for my other grandma’s present.

We came to this large, skinny gift bag that was sitting on a chair and there were all these bows in it. I picked out a bow and told my mum what I thought of it. We ended up picking out a lime green coloured one but it wasn’t chosen after some discussion. The next bow we pulled out was a red colour and it had some spiky points and stars on it along with some gold speckles; we decided that this would be the bow to use for the present as it suited my other grandma’s personality the most.

After this, I started walking down the hill alone. I was slowly, aimlessly wandering down the road, I was thinking about the bow picking with my mum and although absolutely no reality check was performed, I somehow became aware that this was all a dream. Straight away, without hesitation, my intention clicked over to call 18-Volt. Amazingly, I now had my wits about me just like I was existing in waking life. So I mentally planned out what I was going to do; I was going to trick the dream into thinking that I had no intentions to use 18-Volt for an elevator scene.

As I continued to mosey along down the road, I called out “18-Volt!”, no response, “18-Volt!”. And then I went on to say “Please come! Don’t worry about the elevator scene! Just come as you are and we’ll find something else to do together!”. I continued to talk in a similar fashion and that’s when the most miraculous thing happened. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw 18-Volt start to walk up from the bottom of the hill. It was even more impressive (and somewhat scary) because I had the standard waking-life awareness. I decided to remain quiet for a few seconds just to see what would happen and 18-Volt just continued to slowly march up the hill. His appearance was WarioWare Gold but with semi-realistic textures.

Once the reality of the situation had sunk in, I became so excited that this time, I ran up to 18-Volt. When I was close enough, he stopped where he was in the middle of the hill and when I finally got to him, I hugged him. After hugging me back, he picked me up and, because of waking-life awareness, I took an extra step to greet him; I kissed him on the cheek. He got startled but in a good way as he must have been previously zoned out. He then gave me a kiss on the cheek, not only that, he kissed me on the other cheek as well. I then kissed him on his other cheek also.

When I thought I had done enough of the formalities, I then asked him to take me for an elevator scene. He smiled at me, in agreement but also as if he knew and was amused that I was trying to trick the dream earlier on. Although a seemingly average guy in video-game portrayals; in the dream world, he’s very smart and he knew the temperament of an uncooperative sub-conscience. He made sure I was comfortable and then continued in the direction that he was originally going in. The dream then faded into another scene.

We were now at an unknown shopping centre, 18-Volt carrying me in the same position as we were at the end of the previous scene. I was facing in towards him as he had one hand on my upper back and one hand on my butt, supporting my weight. To make sure I was extra secure, I had my legs wrapped around him. At some points of the dream though, he turned me around so I was facing outwards, with my back leaning into him as he had his arms locked around my stomach area. Although my legs were dangling, it didn’t feel like I was about to drop and rather he still supported my weight very well.

In one of the parts of the dream where I was facing outwards, we walked past some lift doors but I didn’t think they were quite right; the door looked too dark and so I thought the inside would be dark as well. As 18-Volt continued walking slowly so I could look around, I said to him, “I just need to look for the right elevator, one that doesn’t look too dark and is rather half decent”. Indeed a lot of areas in the shopping centre weren’t very well lit and so I thought the results would be dodgy.

18-Volt and I decided that we would go to the end of the shopping centre where there would hopefully be a lot of windows, therefore lighting up the area appropriately like a real life surrounding. In the areas where there weren’t any lifts around, 18-Volt turned me back around to face in towards him, in a way, signalling for me to have a rest. In-fact whenever I was facing in towards him, there was always this warm, pleasurable sensation that I would feel, more in some areas and less in some others.

It felt like ages but eventually, we came to one end of the shopping centre, on the ground floor, leading to an undercover car park and although it was still dark, I thought we’d try that elevator as it looked better than the others I had seen. At this point, 18-Volt had me facing outwards as he carried me towards the door. He stopped a few metres away so I could observe the door opening from a reasonable distance. When the door to the elevator opened, there was some red and orange paint-like stuff in there.

18-Volt turned me back in so he could talk to me. In an accurate version of his voice from WarioWare Gold, including the American accent, he said to me, “You might wanna take your top off. The red and orange colours in there will raise your blood pressure. You’re gonna get hot”. I’m surprised he actually knew something about colour psychology. He must have also said that considering he knew how much I was going to panic when I was in there. I ended up taking off my top layer which I discovered to be my light mint green Review cardigan.

He then said to me, “Do you mind if I go to the bathroom to take my jacket off?”. My mind was envisioning that he would be wearing a deep blue-green short-sleeved t-shirt underneath. My physiological signs though were saying something else; I was shaking and my heart was racing, I could literally feel the frantic pulse! After some hesitation, he said, “Actually, I’m not gonna worry about it”. He felt that I didn’t want to be left alone in front of the elevator and that I thought the dream could make him go missing if he left my sight.

I was then turned to face outwards again as 18-Volt brought me right up to the door. He stood there silently for a few seconds, waiting for my breathing and pulse to reduce before he would press the button to open the door. The dream then took a slight turn; a woman walked by and seemed like she was interested in what 18-Volt was doing. She stood a couple of metres from us and made a comment that it was interesting, the method that 18-Volt was using would be constructive to parenting rather than the typical approach of bullying the child. It felt like she was actually re-evaluating the way she treated her own child.

The lift doors soon opened and 18-Volt proceeded to calmly and slowly take me in. The woman also ended up coming in and as this was happening, the dream was beginning to play this sub-scene. There was this electronic touch-screen board in the elevator, sponsored by Big W, where you could construct a mean phrase for a parent to say to their child. While still in 18-Volt’s arms, I tried to create a phrase myself but since I was lucid, I realised that none of the phrases made sense and so I didn’t know which ones to join together. After pressing a few buttons, I woke up.

Dream 415 A - Reflection In The Mirror (Lucid Dream 26)
I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I do remember, I was in an unknown room that had features of some small living room. There was a huge antique mirror filling up the whole space of a wall; I walked up to the mirror and had a look through it. Strangely enough though, I didn’t see my own reflection.

Rather, through the mirror, I saw 18-Volt sitting in a dark maroon coloured leather armchair with a notepad on his lap. I decided for a while just to keep looking into the mirror and to quietly observe what he was doing. The armchair was positioned sideways to the mirror, so I could see what he was actually writing on the notepad! He had an underlined title written at the top which said “How To Hold Her In An Elevator”. This time also, he had his own unique handwriting, although I can’t describe how it looked.

Under that, he had all these words and phrases scattered all over the page. Some I can remember were “gentle”, “stay calm”, “she’s scared”, “hold her tight” and “not touching the ground”. Then in the bottom right hand corner of the page, he also drew a fairly detailed diagram of how he was going to hold me, although I couldn’t see his hands anywhere on that diagram. But then it wasn’t of the whole figure, rather it was a drawing from the bust-line of 18-Volt and up. I was drawn to be on the right side of him (left if it were from his view perspective), clawing both my hands onto the back of his right (left) shoulder as the rest of me dangled off the front of his body. I was wearing my summer school dress.

Then all of sudden, this sense of awareness kicked into me and I was thinking to myself, “Wait a minute… Why am I seeing 18-Volt in the mirror rather than myself?”. But in the actual dream, I was silent as I thought this. Then I actually spoke, I gasped and then said to myself in a shocked but amazed tone, “I’m actually dreaming!”. I tried calling out through the mirror to see if 18-Volt would hear me. I said, “Take me!”, nothing happened and rather, 18-Volt was continuing to write words and phrases on his notepad. I started to perceive this invisible energy that gave me the feeling that he wasn’t ready to take me yet.

Despite my perception of the energy, I kept going, “Take me!”, hoping that something would change and he would notice me. After trying a few times at the mirror, I then looked back into the version of the living room that I was in and yelled “Take me!” a few more times. And then I left the living room and ended up in this area with two lifts in it. I looked upwards at the two doors in terror but had a rather enthusiastic tone when I yelled “Take me!” a few more times. After this, the dream ended.

Dream 415 B - Bad Boys
I don’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember, I was in this completely unknown outdoor area, it felt like it was near some sort of major freeway. In fact, this dream is very blurry in my memory. The only thing I can recall is that RK and BK weren’t very nice to me at all and they would actually take every opportunity they could in order to ditch me and exclude me from their company. That’s all I can remember.

It was interesting how dream 415 A came about. I had yet to have a dream where 18-Volt would take me for lift use practise and the 10th is approaching very fast. Still, I don't know when this interview thing is happening, so hopefully I still have some time up my sleeves. I was going absolutely bonkers because I wasn't getting a dream even though I was writing like mad, executing suggestion and visualisation techniques in my book. So then I started to write a letter... I was going stir-crazy and so I also decided to write a direct-specific letter to my primary dream guide Dreamy WB, suggesting that she would go and see 18-Volt herself behind the scenes and figure out what was going on. There were some dreams in the early hours of the morning that I couldn't recall after waking. It's when I woke up at 5:30 AM and then fell back asleep at 6:30 AM when the dream came on. I certainly wasn't expecting to become lucid so that was a nice surprise.

What amazes me is the depth of content in Dream 415 A. It felt so powerful to see 18-Volt through the mirror, doing such a thing. I mean, he could have easily been doing it in the same room but the to be on the opposite side of the mirror adds this whole new sense of mystery and a new level of inter-dimensional exploration. Some of the phrases he wrote on the notepad, I had mentioned in my letters and others, I think, may be from Dreamy WB's behind the scene instructions. And then that drawing... It's hard to believe he would have such exquisite drawing skills. He actually drew himself and then also drew me in the dress you see me wearing in my profile picture... It wasn't just a rough sketch either, it looked like something that would be drawn by a graphic designer. Come to think of it, maybe he only drew how he would anticipate me holding onto him... The phrases were maybe how he was going to direct himself at the actual time of the task.

So whereas I was expecting to have had two exposures with 18-Volt by now, I have had none. I hope the Awareness Behind The Dream picks itself up and gets moving!

Dream 410 A - Everything Except My Request (Lucid Dream 25)
I can’t remember how the dream started. From where I can remember, I was in some unknown building and the corridors had lifts everywhere, ultimately freaking me out. I said to myself, “I’m not going in any of them without 18-Volt”. I then picked up my pace and tried to walk the heck out of that building. I noticed that the scene was fading on me and changing into a new scene.

For the second scene, I was in my brother’s room, just casually walking around when I suddenly got the intuition to look at my hands. When I looked down at my hands, I only had five fingers but they were clutched around a pen… The hand looked no different to real life but I ended up reciting the automatic response of “I am dreaming”. I then decided to do some more reality checks to make sure that I was actually lucid.

I decided to approach the kitchenette area where there was not one, not two, but multiple mirrors on the wall in this dream. On second thought though, I actually did want to go and look into the mirrors as I was worried about what I would look like and thought that the dream was going to make me look scary. Instead, I decided that I would count my toes, so I walked over to the couch and put my foot on there, counting six toes!

Once I knew I was lucid, the intention hit me and I started diligently calling for 18-Volt but the dream was not going to co-operate for him either. I was calling “18-Volt!” like a broken record while now walking around the entire house on a hunt. At first, there was nothing but because I was lucid, I did not give up. Eventually, something did appear but the dream was only trying to give me some green coloured animal, I forgot which animal it was though.

I shook my head in disbelief and sighed “no...” to the dream and so then the holographic animal disappeared and I continued on with “18 Volt!”, now heading out through the laundry and into the backyard. Half way down the slope of the backyard, the dream decides to try something else on me… My dad starts fading into the scene and again, this time I yell, “no!”, then muttering to myself “Oh my god, you give me everything but 18-Volt”.

Then I went into the garage and out the front door, completing the loop of the house after calling for 18-Volt about 100+ times. When I was walking out of the front driveway, I finally noticed 18-Volt holographically appearing lower down in the court but as that was happening, I was waking up… I wasn’t happy about it but my ability to talk in the dream was now ceased.

Dream 410 B - The Croatian Tongue
I don’t remember much about this dream. From where I can remember, I was standing just outside the back door to my house, on the skinny concrete strip, talking to 18-Volt; I was facing towards the house, he was facing towards the lawn. Without thinking, I ended up for the first time in a dream, saying something in Croatian, I have forgotten what I said though. Looking absolutely confused and baffled, he then asked me what the heck I was going on about. He said something along the lines of “What kind of gibberish is that?”.

Before I had time to think of a reply, and to my surprise, Dreamy WB appeared in her dark-rust coloured hair, year 12 hoodie and black leggings and shoes, floating beside 18-Volt and she told him while pointing to me that I was not speaking gibberish, but rather “In the Croatian language”. 18-Volt then looks and goes to Dreamy WB, “She’s Croatian?”. And when Dreamy WB nodded in confirmation, 18-Volt grew this look of sheer amazement on his face, then looking to me and saying “No way!”. As this was happening, the dream was fading out and I woke up.

At the start of the night, I actually had an endless stream of nightmares; the only thing is that I can't recall any of the details. Due to this endless stream of nightmares, I woke up at 5:00 AM and didn't fall asleep until 7:00 AM; this was after I came back from the bathroom, looked at myself in the mirror and thought "if you don't get some more sleep, your mum won't even be able to recognise her own daughter"... I looked absolutely horrifying, especially around the eyes (I think I should have taken a selfie and posted it here on DV as proof!... Jokes).

Where the intention for 18-Volt in the lucid came in is that I all of sudden discover that the workplace I am doing work-experience at in December is actually conducting the interviews from the 10th of September! You might be thinking, what does 18-Volt and attending the real life interview have to do with each other? That's not the correlation though. It's the fact that I will be required to go to the 13th floor and as past dreams have suggested, I have a big phobia of elevators. Originally, Dreamy WB has been providing me with the in-dream therapy but lately the dream has been tampering with her and not allowing her to appear.

I could have ultimately put an intense amount of time into getting Dreamy WB back but there isn't much time until September the 10th. I feel that with this approach, the dream would only try to mess her up more and more and I would be wasting my time, rather than actually trying to get a reasoning with my phobia, allowing me to become somewhat competent. So instead of pursuing Dreamy WB at the moment, I have decided to go with 18-Volt. I like dream characters with a larger complexion when it comes to things like helping me face my fears as they can not only hug me, but also pick me up off the ground and hold me if need be, so I feel a higher sense of security with them, especially with a big, strong man. As September the 10th is very soon, I'm trying to make a very concerted effort to get as much exposure as possible, spending approximately 2 - 3 hours in the day, writing detailed letters or task plans in my exercise book. I stated that the minimum amount of times I would accept before September the 10th is twice (once each week) but these interviews can happen any time from then until the 27th of September, so if it is later, then I would prefer to have practice with 18-Volt at least 4 - 6 times as a minimum. I said that I would be competent to ride elevators in real life when I no longer have to touch 18-Volt (or Dreamy WB if she decides to come back on her own) and I feel okay when I wake up. Otherwise, if I don't have enough practice in-dream, then I'll be clambering to find a stair-well. Once the interview period is over (and hopefully 18-Volt's calmed me down enough), then I will be having a big crack-down on the Awareness Behind The Dream in-order to get Dreamy WB back.

A bit about Dream 410 B now. I find it impressive that as 18-Volt is expressing his confusion, Dreamy WB appears on his side to clarify it to him. Usually, when there is a new significant dream character, I often have a series of "getting to know you dreams" (I don't plan these ones, they just come) where we meet for the first time and then they end up interacting with me and then learning about me as well. In real life, I have written that if it was possible to have 18-Volt go and see Dreamy WB to get behind the scenes tutorials on how my dreams work and how I conduct myself; so that's maybe what manifested in her appearing to him to explain my "Croatian" situation. By the way, Dreamy WB was telling the truth; in real life, I am actually Croatian.

Dream No. 391 - Wrong Man In The Van
Lucid Dream 24

There is one scene I can recall in the non-lucid segment of the dream. I was walking around Jells Park and I came across Murray just standing on the grass, off one the footpaths; he was in his Sly 2/3 appearance. I came up to him and we spoke. I forget everything we said but I do clearly remember this one line he said, which was “Africans talk with their mouths, but hippos talk with their muscles”, as he then flexed an arm. I consciously knew he was making a hilarious but mocking reference at Dreamy WB’s expense.

In the next scene that I can recall, I was in my house and it was pitch black at night. Everyone was in bed sleeping but I was up and walking about. I find myself in the sitting room next to the kitchen and my brother is laid out on a mattress on the floor. He wakes up and for some unknown reason, he is speaking to me, but with a violent tinge.

I become somewhat scared of him but for some reason, decide to go into the kitchen and when I looked towards the oven, I saw the clock and the time said 12:33.1 when in real life, the oven clock would show 0:33 (24hr time). I then gave a slight gasp and said to myself, “I’m in a dream!”, then walking back into the sitting room. My brother lifts his head up and once again in a mean tone, tells me I’m not dreaming.

I ignored him because I was intelligent enough to know that he was trying to tamper with my dreaming efforts. Instead, I looked up to the clock at the other end of the room and there I see it, evidence. The clock still has twelve numbers in the analogue position but not in the order of 1, 2, 3… and so on. Rather, the order was like 2, 10, 6, 4, 13… 13? This must mean that one number between 1 – 12 was replaced with this 13. As soon as I saw that 13 on the clock, I was definitely convinced that this was a dream.

My brother, still with a terribly mean and angry disposition about him was trying to tell me otherwise but I now just ignored him. I walked past the bar stools and stopped near the dining room. In the loudest voice I could, I yelled “Can I please have Dreamy WB and Murray in this dream?!”. Then a huge gush of wind started up and I was picked up and carried with it and a very fast and furious pace, being shot out through the top front window and off the balcony!

I soon discover that the dream has placed me onto Dreamy WB’s lap but I can’t see her, she was invisible in this dream. Gently, she descended from the balcony very slowly and then ascended up the court in the same manner. In the dream, the court seemed longer that in real life. Also, because I was lucid, I was able to perceive extra feelings when I was on her. At one point, I noticed that when the dream plonked me onto her, I wasn’t quite centred properly; so I squiggled slightly, even fixing my pants this time, and then a feeling of bliss came as I sunk into her.

Just as we were about to reach the top of the court, slowly, she turned around. I wondered why but then I saw a blue van coming up the road… It was a real life render of the Cooper van! It parked almost below where Dreamy WB was hovering. Still in the air, I saw Sly and Bentley, who were very small in this dream and also with very realistic graphics, standing behind the van. They didn’t end up doing any thing in the dream though. And then Dreamy WB descended and gently slid me off her.

With my feet now on the ground and me standing upright, Dreamy WB directed me to get into the van. She especially said for me to sit in the front. Since she was invisible, I only envisioned her with my conscious mind, hopping into the back. When I got seated though, this was not Murray at all! The dream character that was in the driver’s seat (left in Australian driving laws) was my dad! I wasn’t happy about this. I yelled out to the dream that I wanted Murray but nothing happened.

Then we took off and I saw that we were driving along a freeway, still in the middle of the night. All throughout the drive, I’m looking out the window and shouting to and cursing at the dream that I clearly wanted Murray… The dream still wouldn’t budge. The only thing it did was bend a facial feature of my dad’s but it would very quickly rebound to normal which made me less than pleased.

The venue we ended up at was some strange restaurant but it wasn’t one building, rather it was a whole complex. My dad was no longer with us and rather it was just me and Dreamy WB exploring the building, Dreamy WB who was now visible in a physical human form. She was wearing a black Kathmandu puffer jacket with black leggings and black canvas shoes. Her hair was straight and tied up in a ponytail.

This restaurant complex didn’t necessarily have a warm environment everywhere, in-fact, some areas were cold and factory-like. Eventually out of nowhere, other girls joined us and it’s now like we were having a social outing. In one the larger factory-like rooms, the group was all standing around in a circle besides some metal stairs and I noticed that Dreamy WB had a canned drink with her. I saw that it was some fizzy mango fruit drink but then she had also mixed it with some regular milk and once she had a swig of it, she offered for me to try some.

I came up to her, hesitant to try it at first but I did end up taking some. She asked me what I thought and at first, I said I liked it. But after having another sip, I changed my mind and thought it was disgusting, so I gave the drink back to her and let her finish it off. For the rest of the scene, the group were talking with each other but I forgot what about specifically. The dream then moved onto the next scene.

I found myself to be in my bedroom on a bright sunny morning. I got out of bed and walked around the house for a bit but then I still had a lucid awareness with me and so noticed some things were starting to become off. Finally, I notice I’m still in a dream and so I call out to the dream, “Hey! I’m not finished yet! Take me back to where I was!”.

The dream does take me back to the complex but it is day time and the grounds look more like a school, especially the undercover walkways. It was the same group of girls as from the night time scene but there is something different about Dreamy WB. She’s wearing the same clothing but she has the same facial features and voice as of R.McN, including the added glasses. This only phases me slightly and so I still do talk to the character as if it were Dreamy WB. At one point we were falling and so I was concerned but this so-called Dreamy WB reassured that she would be looking after me. The dream ended there from what I can recall.

Although Murray successfully appeared in the non-lucid segment, I'm not marking him as a valid dream guide because I don't want to reward my dream for what it did in the lucid aspect. I also drew up what reality checks I did in the house (night time scene) as well as for anyone who may be curious, the position I usually take on Dreamy WB in all the lap-riding dream scenes.

Dream No. 387 - Separated Sections


Dream 387 A - My Dad And His Companion
I don’t remember much about this dream. From what I can remember, I was outside my house, standing in the driveway and talking to my dad. He said something about him taking a holiday to Croatia but that he was planning to go with someone. Judging by the person it was, I thought to myself, “Uh oh, how are we supposed to get him?”. There was only a short, feint subscene of me and my dad walking into an unknown house and WB sitting on the living room couch, not looking very happy towards me.

The second scene I can remember is where I was at some unknown parkland with other students and teachers from my high school. I have forgotten specifically what we were doing there. I had this ability where I could float in a sitting position, almost just like Dreamy WB but I was attached to a rotational desk chair and the steering was more controlled. I steered around for a while, trying to look for WB for something… The rest of this scene is a mess in my head.

Back in the driveway of my house, I looked at the slip of paper saying who my dad was supposed to be going with. When I had a better look, the name on the paper said something like “Mr. Vaiboo” which indeed was an African surname but not the person I was originally thinking of. Rather, it was some complete stranger. That’s all I can remember for this dream.

Dream 387 B - Unintelligent Dream Characters (Lucid Dream 23)
I don’t remember how the dream started. From where I do remember, I was on a bus and it was repeat of the afternoon bus run back in high school, with the time of day being very late dusk but the sky was still pink. The bus driver was supposed to be heading for Endeavour Hills shopping centre to complete the school run but unfortunately for him, I noticed he made a slight deviation. When I told him though, he said to me, something like, “We’re still heading towards Endeavour Hills, just a different way” but I found it very hard to believe him.

The street he was driving down was a court in real life but in the dream, it was supposedly going to link to a wide dirt track in which we would all be strangely taken to somewhere in the countryside. As we were driving down the road to the supposed dead end, I was calculating what stops the three other girls left were required to get off at. I recited the exact same stops that the girls got off at in real life.

A projection of a map was then shown with the supposed route to Endeavour Hills being marked in red. Now the map was being traced, also in red. It stayed consistent for the first part but then near the end, the red line deviated to go the opposite way! Back to the bus driver’s remark, I didn’t think he was evil in this dream, just stupid. I looked over at TK and thought to myself that she was going to be the one most affected as she was getting off at the furthest stop.

So I called for Dreamy WB but didn’t do it multiple times. Rather, I yelled towards the front window and slightly off to the driver’s side, “Dreamy WB! Can you signal TK off the bus?!”. That’s when an invisible energy rolled the window next to TK down and pulled her backwards out of the bus, sending her flying backwards in a sitting position, but moving towards the rightful destination of Endeavour Hills. I did ask if she could do the other girls but I have forgotten whether she had removed MJ and ADev or not.

The next scene was in the study room of a house but it was an unknown house. At the table were me, TK, MJ and ADev, the whole group, linking from the previous bus scene. The girls were amazed in hindsight and what Dreamy WB had done and ultimately, the overall abilities she had. TK made the first comment but I forgot what it was about. ADev then said that Dreamy WB actually tutored her once and she ended getting nothing but A+’s.

This is now the start of the lucid aspect which took place at my current house. I saw just at the stop of the stairs, in the hallway and WB’s dad, Mr Be., holding a valid African appearance, was standing on the other side of the closed glass door, just near the entrance to the bathroom, toilet and laundry area. Despite the door being closed, he still sounded very clear when he spoke.

He was telling me something about the fingers on his hands. He first told me he had seven of them but the dream seemed to be injecting a strange vibe into him, as well as introducing a very kooky dream character for me to deal with. This new dream character was claiming to be Mrs Be. but this looked absolutely nothing like her and the most disturbing thing about this dream’s claim… The woman wasn’t even African. Rather, she was a young, sprightly, white looking mum with blue eyes and platinum blonde hair!

For some weird reason, with no logical transition, I was now in the main part of the house as well. With Mr Be. and his weird seven and then six finger antics, this caused me to become lucid even though I didn’t shout out that I was in a dream this time. That’s when Mrs Be. now played difficult and was going to tickle me in an attempt to force me to wake up. I consciously remembered what happened in Dream No. 316 B and so scurried and rushed to get back into the hallway on the other side of the glass door.

Ruthlessly, the extremely distorted Mrs Be. came running after me but I managed to slam the door on her just in time. That was done, but she wasn’t going to give up any time soon. She attempted to push the door back open with brute force but I wasn’t going to let that happen. I can feel my muscles in my arms struggling to keep the door shut and when there’s only even a centimetre gap, she puts an arm through with her fingers going at me with rapid pace. I tried crying out for Dreamy WB but my airways were completely obstructed with phlegm, meaning that I had no voice.

The fact that Mrs Be. was constantly almost reaching me and I had no capacity to call out for help meant that I actually almost felt like crying. In-fact my voice was perfectly fine when I started wailing and crying, it would only turn to absolute phlegm when I would attempt to call for Dreamy WB. I did have a moment of powerful development though. I came back to the core realisation that I was lucid and so I could overcome the dream’s imposing effects.

It was an empowering thought as for a short amount of time, the activity in the other room with Mr and Mrs Be. actually froze time. In this short window of time, I backed away from the door, walked towards the top front balcony, and cleared my throat as hard as I could, even harder than the hardest attempt in real life when you’re sick. And then it happened, like a little kid having a tantrum, I was crying out for Dreamy WB but she didn’t appear just yet.

I noticed that the time in their half of the house was starting to unfreeze and so I had to move fast, back to the door to continue my defence. This time, I had a plan in my head of what I was going to do. At one stage, Mrs Be. took her time but stuck her arm really far out… That’s when I made a run for it. Instead of keeping it closed, I bashed the door open and made a run for it, missing Mrs Be. by just a millimetre, instead knocking her onto the ground as I swept past her and going past Mr Be. who was obliviously admiring his stylish 7-fingered hand.

Into the laundry I went and while I was in there, I saw this young African man coming in from the backyard. In a panic, I swung the back door open, almost hitting him in the face and as I ran into the backyard, he gave me a look like “what’s wrong with her?” as he then casually continued into the house, slowly shutting the back door again behind him. Meanwhile, I was scurrying down the large sloped backyard as fast as I could. Just as I could see about the lemon tree, I cried out in an extremely tantrum-like tone, “Dreamy WB!!!!! Save Me!!!!!” like one of the little kids starring on an episode of Supernanny UK.

I reach the bottom and open the door to the music room. I enter it, slowly waking in to feel an aura of mystery surrounding me. As I look over to the piano to the right, the lid is off and the keys are playing to themselves! There was no volume though and it was only one key at a time. I then walked further into the room, examining other objects. Although Dreamy WB didn’t seem to be visible, there was always this energy sticking around, making me feel completely calm despite the weird things going on in the sidelines.

My lucid mind then helped me to determine that it may have in-fact been Dreamy WB herself who was sitting in-front of the piano and delicately pressing the keys one at a time. It was my original intention to physically see Dreamy WB but even just getting away from the real WB’s parents felt like an accomplishment to me. As I felt a sense of accomplishment, I willingly commanded myself to wake up and indeed I could see the dream slowly fading out and my bedroom coming into view.
