Induction Method: DILD. My alarm clock was going off in real life, but I hadn't woken up yet. Instead, I had a false awakening, and turning off my dream alarm clocks wasn't affecting the sound of the alarm clock. Searching for the still ringing alarm clock made me recall a previous dream (non-lucid) in which I heard the alarm clock ringing in real life but didn't acknowledge it. I performed my favorite reality check, plugging the nose and breathing. But it didn't work. Confused, momentarily, I can't really recall what I did until I RCed again, this time checking out my hands. One of them appeared to have four fingers, so I went lucid.
Stabilization Tech: At one point walls started stretching/melting. Tried to stabilize with thumb rubbing. Failed! Immediately tried palm rubbing, everything snapped back really quickly, so I think I'll use that one preferentially from now on.
Dream Intent: I first tried to fly, and then went on to try to have my subconscious call up specific dream characters.
Dream Control: I attempted to fly through a close opaqued window, but it merely turned membranous and repelled me. After that decided to summon dream characters, but none of them were of interest to me, not fitting the requirements of what I was looking for. I should have been more specific or forceful. But I didn't want to control too much of the creation. So no go.
Dream End: Throughout dream ringing of my alarm clock was going on, I couldn't shut it off. So just ignored it, or suffered through it. But at one point my second alarm clock kicked in, and I woke up immediately. Not 100% awake, but not tired either.
