non-lucid

Note: These DCs are real people, but the names have been changed to protect privacy.

It started off non-lucid in a pool/chill room of some sort. Banana was saying some suggestive things about Rolleyes and I again. Shadewink, sitting next to a fireplace, heard it and asked, "Alex's in love?" I sat down next to him and said no, but not emphatically, to show I was in love with him. We talked for a bit about love. I forgot the specifics. It felt so real.

I somehow became the babysitter in a family with a 5-year-old serial killer lunatic boy. It was exactly like a horror movie. I was alone in the house, then I turned and saw the boy grinning with a dagger in his hand. I had to keep a lookout for him, and he always appeared where I wasn't looking. I managed to dodge all his attacks. On the last attack I dodged, he pulled out a fork next, and somehow I made him land in the laundry hamper, which I pushed out a door that I then closed.

Then the family came home. The two daughters wanted to take a shower, and I joined them. I saw the eldest had big breasts and she was taking small, paper-thin supplements, so I asked, "Does it work?" She said yes. I asked if I could have some. (The younger daughter said "No!" as if not wanting me to change who I am.) She told me I'd be able to get them in a mystical garden, which was shown to me. But first, I had to return in a time machine to a time in the middle of things - in medias res.

So I then returned to the pool/chill room. Without me (and Banana, or Shadewink, it seemed), they'd gotten Dennis, who was passed out on the floor anyway. I went into the next room; the guys were sitting n a circle, and greeted me. Victor asked where I was going. I told them I was going to "buy something" in Chinese. Then I elaborated: "I'm going to buy something called Fifty Basket (a drink shop)". And I ran out of there. I knew with that lame excuse some of them would be bound to chase after me, and so I ran. I ran over the familiar swimming pool & resort landscape from my unwritten dream on 5/21. My adrenaline surged, and I was losing the dream. I was able to salvage it, however.

Finally I vaulted a fence and at the other side, Banana came over with a bundle of the pink supplements in the shape of a lotus. He told me, "You do know this is just a dream, right?" I replied wistfully: "Can't I take this into the real world?" But here I'd already become lucid. I wanted to stay lucid for longer. I walked about on the now empty and sandy place, changing night into day. I lay on the ground and tried to change the medium I was lying on, to no success. I then decided to have random sex, so I changed the dreamscape into a beach with more people. Most of the people resisted my advances, so eventually I grabbed a green electric toothbrush and went for it. The feeling was intense. I could hear a voice saying, "This is what is meant by libertarian sex(uality)", and "99.9%" of something. Then I came violently, already half awake and feeling myself pulse in bed, and woke up.

I was on an indoor extreme rollercoaster with my family. This rollercoaster seemed familiar and definitely appeared in a previous dream, but I didn't go lucid. Before the ride began, I realized that my seat had no seat belt to strap me to the seat. Essentially I was sitting on a piece of wood. But the ride operator told me they had no time to give me a strap, and the perilous ride began. The ride sped up and down tracks of extreme angles and "high-tosses" - places where there were no tracks and the carriages had to fly over. I realized that not having a seat belt certainly made the ride more dangerous, but not impossible. Then came a section where carriages with seat belts were attached to and moved across a yellow rope. The bottom was void. Without a seat belt, I was tossed. My carriage flew away. At the last minute, I decided to reach my right arm up and grab the yellow rope. I triumphantly yelled, "Haha! I grabbed the rope! Suck on that! I would've died if I didn't!" I had to slowly climb the rope. Then I heard the people in the seatbelt carriages moving on to the next part of the ride. My brother's (or another male's) voice said, "I didn't realize it would be so STEEEEEEEEEEP!!!" as they fell down the steep edge. This phrase made me confirm that this scenario had been from a previous dream. I found out that without a carriage, I had to climb sideways onto a blue rope and manipulate a pulley somehow so I could carry on. On the way, though, I failed, and probably fell and died.

I was in a hotel room with my family and extended family. A Japanese woman who I knew was the wife to one of my uncles (though she's Korean IRL, I perceived her as Japanese in the dream) was watching the international TV. I switched it to the Indian channel where many cubes with Indian-style patterns enlarged to fill the screen. I was thinking, "What if I could smoke one cigar in the bathroom?" The Japanese woman snapped, "What do you want?" I snapped back equally as angrily, thinking she was being racist towards the Indian channel. A mediator from the hotel suddenly burst into the room to mitigate the fight. He asked what was going on; walking to the bathroom, I said, "I wanted to smoke one cigar in the bathroom." Then I saw the no smoking sign on the bathroom door, and said, "Ohhh, right, no smoking in the bathroom!" My mother nodded and frowned disapprovingly.
