side notes

No entry for yesterday since I'd rather it not be public, but for documentation's sake I did dream about Dave Strider again like I'd intended! Bro, too! I also became lucid briefly to change the scene twice so I was pleased about that :) Tags/categories for that dream are: lucid, memorable, nightmare, fandom: Homestuck. Now for last night's:

1.
Jake trying to get our mom to buy him a subscription to something on the computer, a game? She won't because she's too busy with job stuff at the moment, and Jake harasses her, asking exactly what she's been doing this whole time since she has yet to gain a single client.

After/at the time this is happening (idk) I'm looking at a Dragon Age mod for a new character race called 'Fajjyn'?? The character is a slightly creepy-looking female with deep eyes, grey skin and bright red hair. Then I hear a short police siren and when I look outside I see the light from a flashlight shining on houses, but the light is pink.

2.
I'm on the floor drawing with Brandie, using paper and pencils. Somehow she is really fast and near-perfect, and I get frustrated because whatever I draw isn't that good. She tries showing me her technique by drawing a rock, and I copy it but the rock looks too flat. We practice more til I create some decent-looking rocks, but unlike her small, smooth stones, mine are large, black and jagged things that pile up in sheets, literally! As I keep drawing, the rocks become real.


notes: During 1, I was feeling upset with Jake for acting that way but I wonder if it's my subconscious worrying that my mom will back out on everything after she's put in so much effort. The drawing dream definitely came from my worrying about being good enough when it comes to my art. But it was cool to draw something into existence, I'd like to try that again sometime!

Also, I had intended to dream about Dave again, but if it happened, I don't recall it.

I can't remember much of what feels like the longest dream, was too tired to try writing it down after waking up last night :/

1.
Something to do with a witch and this big company that was working for evil but no one knew except me and a few others. I tried escaping this huge building and made it outside where it looked like some kind of exotic zoo area.

2.
I was in a bar/food court? At the table with Dave, Rose, John and Jade (from Homestuck). There was a guy at the next table who was being really obnoxious so I got up and asked him to keep it down. He argues with me, insulting me. I reply, "I said, 'be quiet'." and take the lid off his drink and pour it over his lap (careful now, badass right here). Then a fight that feels like a musical number for some reason breaks out and I get shoved towards Dave and he balances me.

3.
I go to visit Brandie, but she's lying in bed acting ill. She says she's been in labor for a few hours, but she's never had sex. I suggest maybe it's calcium build-up. (wtf she's not a coffee maker???)

notes: Wish I could remember more but at least I had a dream about Dave! Really wanted some kind of fandom dream so I tried focusing on him last night. I'd hoped to actually talk with him, but I guess getting his own close-up and catching me works too :P

1.
I'm in a room at my house, using these 'cake'-like things with teeny beetles inside that grow to full-size when halved(not sure what I was using them for). Then I'm in my grandma's dining room, mom in the kitchen, and I'm freaking out because the beetle-cake I had was the wrong type, and there are now bugs of all sizes all over the room. The biggest was this centipede/reptile thing, about 8 feet. My mom helps me to capture a few little ones (but I can't remember what happens to the rest). The big centitile thing escapes to the living room, followed by this creature that is not a bug, but a small leopard with a very long tail. We run in and out the back door there to find my grandma and tell her, but she hasn't seen them.

Somehow the topic changes to wanting to visit Australia, and suddenly my family is all there and looking around this giant outdoor market. It was as if we'd ended up in some other world entirely (it wasn't Australia at all but no one questioned it :P). Everything had a hint of magic to it, and there were beautiful treasures everywhere and entertainers performing tricks and dances. It's nighttime then, and I'm hanging out on a pillow under the starry sky playing with a big sheet of frosted glass that is hovering above me, and I'm scraping away at the layer of 'frost' with a small razor, drawing shapes of animals and patterns into what is becoming a very large, astronimical/astrological image. Some places where I scrape have glowing images behind them, like the sun, moon, and other planets.

2.
Tried to reblog a troll ancestors fanart from a blog on Tumblr that turned out to be hacked or something, gave me a virus that forced me to follow it. Keitorin tells me to try using this 'feature' that lets you restore Tumblr to an earlier time to get rid of it. I see a button with a box underneath where I'm supposed to type something from the blog, which is 'dark knight' because it appears often on there?? The box says 'enter maximum command' at the top.

3.
Sort of like watching a documentary, this old hipster guy, who seems like a real jerk, is talking about his artwork. He cuts out shapes from paper and draws on them, then forms them around his head and shoulders. One lady next to him is wearing a large piece of paper covering her shoulders and head, the drawing on it is of a woman's portrait. The guy really got on my nerves for how snooty he sounded.

notes: I guess the troll fanart and tumblr business came from my constantly seeing it! The art thing, idk. I like art. No idea about the bugs and 'Australia' adventure! I hate bugs but in the dream I was more concerned with them getting away.

Forgot to get some paper by my bed last night. So these fragments are just as detailed as I can recall from images and impressions :/

1.
I was in some school, looked kind of like my old high school but it wasn't. I had just showered in this enormous locker room area that for some reason flowed into the pool area like privacy wasn't an issue. Was looking around for a hair dryer and this nice DC who is apparently a student but looks older, like my age, comes over and helpfully points out this huge machine up high on the wall where you press a button for the kind of service you want. Of course, I felt silly for not realizing at first :P Then I notice you have to pay upwards of $5 for any service, but neither I nor the girl have any money. She tells me I could go to the east end of the school where the dryer might already be on?? because supposedly there's this fancy guy who leaves his electric car plugged in in the parking lot all the time and so the school draws a lot of power off of it. (dream logic is fascinating, isn't it?)

So then the DC and I walk over to the pool to sit with our feet in and she starts telling me about the legend surrounding that fancy guy. (I can't remember specifics at all, but it's some kind of conspiracy that a few kooky people have dedicated themselves to researching--not scholars, just nerds. I've got this image of a small, woodcraft door, like for a large dollhouse, but with no handle.)

2.
(Here, I am in my home but it is most definitely not where I actually live.) The main room looks like a giant garage with a concrete floor, and there is lots of stuff littering the floor, like toys, garbage and other things. There are lots of children around, my relatives?? (I didn't know them at all.) My mom and Alberto were there, I think Jake and Saundra too. I was inviting Alice into my home, and we went to my bedroom, where Keitorin was sitting in a chair in the corner, reading. My bedroom wall had a ton of pictures and stuff on it, drawings and cut-outs. Alice said something? and I jokingly replied that she could have one of my 'sterile babies', of which there was a pile of outside my room. (They looked like medium-sized lobsters and I have no idea how they were supposed to be 'my sterile babies' or what that even means omg) Then my 'dad', a DC, comes by to chat. He....looks like a giant lobster :////

And that's it! I don't even know what to say about those, wow.
