    Short LD "Smash the Sky"
    I am using a computer. The screen is mostly blue, like there is plastic over it. There are forums showing. I am trying to edit something and end up deleting the entire post. It occurs to me that this is a dream, and a nose pinch RC confirms it.

    The room is small and has a couple of windows looking out of the second story towards a street and other buildings. I try to fly through the closed window, phasing through it completely. I am now outside but the sky is a ceiling still. There is a patch of blue sky down the street, but wherever I fly to the ceiling just keeps reappearing.

    Finally I lose my temper and hulk out, letting out a roar of frustration and smashing head first into the solid ceiling. It shatters from the impact, lumps of masonry falling everywhere. Then it vanishes. I keep flying up into the sky until everything goes black. Then stars start to appear. The stars seem to gather together as I fly towards them, forming a galaxy. It fades before I can reach it.


    Short LD "Triss" WILD
    After waiting in the darkness for ages there are sudden screeching noises. Then violent vibrations start. Feels like an earthquake. I remind myself to stay calm. When everything goes quiet again, I do a nose pinch RC then stand up on the bed. Well, the task of the month requires a DC to show you a new method of dream control. So I stare at the door and imagine someone walking in.

    A red haired woman walks in. She is tall, slim, oh and distractingly pretty. It could be Triss Merigold from the Witcher games. Damn. Maybe I should have created some trousers first. I stand up as she walks to the bed but without me saying a thing she gets down on her knees...

    Probable false awakening. TR talking to a guy holding a D&D book.

    5.20- 6.40am
    Medium LD "Hollow Man"
    A bad guy is picking on children and painting their toys black. I try to stop him and we end up fighting. During the struggle I get hold of two of his fingers and bend them back. They should break, but he is apparently double jointed and this doesn't do anything to him. Nothing seems to hurt him. Eventually we call a truce. The main thing is, he isn't upsetting the kids any more.

    Later on there is a man sitting at a kitchen table eating half an apple pie with custard and ice cream. Mmmm one of my favourite desserts! I take the other half of the pie and put a big spoonful of custard on it. After the food is gone we switch off various fans and lights around the room.

    I head upstairs and find a bedroom. While I'm getting undressed several people enter the room and talk about pouring dettol on me "until it foams." Uhm. Really rather you didn't. I become lucid.

    I ask the DCs to show me a new method for dream control. They tell me to take a pen and draw a red cross on a tea-bag. Then put it on the floor, lie down and stare at the cross. Well this is all typically dumb, but I do it. While lying on the floor staring at the tea-bag with the cross on it, I suddenly fly backwards out of my body and become an astral projection.

    Or at least that's what I thought happened. It seems more like invisibility though, as my body has vanished. Two of the DCs start arguing about how they didn't follow the instructions right and now the transformation is irreversible. You what? I shove one of the guys and he goes flying into a glass set of shelves. It breaks. Glass flies everywhere but doesn't hurt me. He takes a shard of glass and uses it like a dagger, but he is unable to see me and flails wildly.

    Everyone else decides to leave. They run outside and get into a car. Still invisible, I jump into the back seat.
    Lost lucidity at some point, rest is best described as a false/semi lucid-dream. The road is blocked with parked cars and a van tries to run us off the road. The street is very narrow and when we reach the junction at the end, a digger the size of a house with a snow-plow shovel like thing on the front tries to shunt us out of the way.

    The road is now blocked with scrap - abandoned cars, metal poles. A bunch of DCs are starting to move things out of the street. The others from the car start to assist. I try to help, and get spotted by a girl with a camera. Hey, what happened to the invisibility?

    It turns out that digital cameras can pick up a faint trace of me, and she is using it to see where I am. We move into a house and a guy starts moving shelves around. I help him, while invisible, which freaks him out. He tells me to stop doing that.

    I walk into the next room and find it is filled with people from work. One of them looks at a payslip then leaves it lying on the side. I am tempted to look at it. Before I get the chance, someone attacks me. They are using cameras to track me. At first I just try to stay out of the way, but eventually lose my patience and start throwing the people across the room and smashing the place up.... and then wake.

      cool TOTM attempt. so far i asked a dc for a special ability that i want to learn (funny thing: invisibility xD) but your approach is cooler. and nice that even though it is rediculus you did how you been told.

      Hehe yeah, I've made my dream characters do some weird stuff while lucid, so it's only fair that they get the opportunity to do the same to me!

      The first time I turned invisible in a lucid dream, I closed my eyes and imagined a sphere of white light around me. Then the light starts to get blurry. Then eventually I would fade into the environment around me. I'll have to try your way of turning invisible.
      In some of my dreams, some DCs use thermographic cameras to track me down. Or when they see me in the dreams when it is foggy, rainy, or even when I'm digesting my food, you know? However, other times, that is not always the problem. Also, one time, I was chased in a non-lucid by everyone because I was the only "Visible" person in the dream because they blamed me. You know, global invisibility? It sucked.
      Congrats on getting those tasks done!

      Thanks Ibeauty. I haven't experimented with full invisibility that many times but your experiences sound very cool, especially being the only 'visible' person!

      By the way, I've never actually seen that movie, "Hollow Man" before. Seriously!

      Hollow Man had some cool special effects, for when it was made. It's an alright film. Turns into a kinda generic slasher-horror film at the end though.
