Last night was another night with absolutely no recall. I have big plans for tonight, though. Plans to meet up with Nomad and MoSh in a dream, hopefully at least two of us will remember so it can be a confirmed shared dream... and it is about time I had an epic lucid dream! So that is not in question, I will have an epic dream tonight! I've heard positive thinking helps... so I'm going to try it.
01/22/12 Note: Just one short dream from last night, but that's better than nothing! Tennis, Anyone? I am on a vacation with my mother to see some friends we have in another state. We are there on the last day of our trip, and I am trying to have fun for the last bit of time. I am with a couple other people on a tennis court, they are playing tennis. I tell them I'm not very good at tennis, but they insist I join in on a game. I start playing tennis and find I can do an interesting trick. I can somehow catch the ball on the top of my racket and roll it around there until I am ready to shoot it back at my opponent. Since nothing but the racket touches the ball, there is no violation of the rules. That allows me to take my opponents by surprise almost every time. Everyone is in awe of how I am doing that, they want to know how I do that. I'm not really sure. I practice it for a while longer and think maybe it's latent telekinesis starting to show up. I don't tell the others about that theory, I want to keep my new telekinesis secret for a while at least. My mom and I leave and are on the way home. I realize for the first time that my ex-boyfriend James is in the car with us. He says using telekinesis in tennis is technically cheating. I tell him if he can show me that in the rule books then I will never do that again.
Another night with no dream recall. I'm not really surprised since I'm feeling kind of shitty right now... it seems to be going every other night. So that means tonight should be a good night for dreams!
01/19/12 Man on a Ledge I am on top of a building looking out over the city, I have come up here to check out the view from the top of the office building where my new job is. I have finally found a job, though it isn't the exact job I was looking for. I look out over the city and then I see that I'm not alone there. There is a man near the corner of the building, standing right on the ledge. I wonder if he is considering jumping. I see that he has a little girl. He is holding her up in the air and laughing maniacally. Is he going to throw her over the edge?! I have to keep that from happening! I head towards the man to see if I can get him off the ledge. The man leans forward and falls from the ledge. I am close enough to grab hold of his belt to keep him from falling and taking the girl with him. I am surprised at my own strength as I pull him back from the ledge and onto the building. He says that was too close… he thought he was going to fall. I tell him I saw the whole thing, so don't bother lying. The little girl is crying, I am thinking I need to get her to safety and tell the authorities what the man was doing. He needs to see a shrink…
I'm making this post to keep with my resolution to always post something, but I had no dreams last night. Tonight I am going to be very focused on having a specific dream. An Oblivion dream. In addition, I am going to start doing frequent RC's while I play Oblivion iwl. I am hoping this will lead me to do RC's in my non-lucid Oblivion dreams and then remember other goals. Here's hoping for a good outcome...
Well, damn... another night where I don't remember anything... I'm going to have to focus better tonight to remember something!
Last night was a night with no recall. Actually I had some recall when I first woke up, but since I was awakened by the phone and it was my school telling me they'd screwed up my schedule I got too distracted before I could take any notes... and now I remember absolutely nothing. Hoping for better luck tonight.
Well, I unfortunately have absolutely no recall from last night. I am hoping tonight will be different. Many lucids to you all!
01/09/12 Hidden Realms I am with a couple of other people in some kind of an archaeological dig site, we are looking for an old diary that contains a lot of information about the people who used to live there. The dig site looks more like a mine than a typical archaeological dig site, and I am down in a tunnel digging around for any sign of artifacts. I find a few pieces of a clear crystalline substance and put one piece in my pocket. Someone there with me, a woman, says not to do that… if they catch me stealing that gem I will be put to death. I decide it isn't worth the risk and I drop the crystal back on the ground. I continue looking. I don't find a book, but I find a large chunk of the crystal. It is the size of a small brick. No one is around me now, and I think maybe I can jack this one… it is sure to be valuable. I hide it in the bottom of a backpack I am wearing, under a lot of clothes and stuff. I'm not sure why I had all that with me, but I did. I exit the mines with the backpack and tell the people outside I really need a short break. They say I can have 10 minutes… and a drink of water, and a small snack… then back to work. I agree to that and head over to the tent where we take breaks. I hide the backpack out behind the tent in a thick cluster of bushes then I go inside. I take a drink of water and eat a cheese sandwich. I am thinking it is about time to go back to work. I wonder if the backpack will be safe from discovery. I figure it should be, and if it is gone, at least it can't be connected to me! Tower Heist I am with a partner and we are breaking into a tall building to steal something from the penthouse. The target of our theft is an old book, I'm not sure what is so important about the book. My partner is a big black guy, he is large as in he is tall, muscular, and a bit on the overweight side. Getting in to the bottom levels of the building isn't a problem. It is publicly accessible. Getting higher up is a bit more of a problem. We end up climbing through the hatch on the roof of the elevator and scaling up a maintenance ladder in the elevator. That isn't too difficult… and we get to the penthouse rather easily. This is going easier than I had expected. We get in the penthouse and look around for a while, my partner finds the book we're looking for. Then someone comes into the penthouse… we need to get out… but the exit is blocked. We go to the window and out onto an outside deck. It is a long way down… My partner has a rope with him and a roll of tape that looks like electrical tape. He says it will hold any weight, and I have no doubt of it. He tapes the rope to the edge and lowers himself over, climbing slowly down and cursing that he hates heights. I lower myself down after him after slipping the book we were after into the waist band of my jeans. We lower ourselves down quite a way and then run out of rope. My partner tapes the other end of the rope to the building and then somehow releases the upper end with a shake of the rope. It doesn't occur to me that this could happen by accident… Now we are able to lower ourselves the rest of the way at which point my partner retrieves the rope and we are able to make our escape.
Well, I had absolutely zero recall from last night. Zip, zero, zilch. But keeping with my new year resolution, I'm getting on here to read other journals and post that I had no dream recall. I am hoping this focus on dreams will help make sure I remember some dreams tonight!
12/11/2011 Shadow Worlds I am in school, taking a few CD's worth of data in to class for a presentation. I have completed the first level of a new video game I have been working on entitled Shadow Worlds. I go into the classroom, and it seems the instructor isn't pleased with me. She indicates I am late and I am getting special treatment to be able to give my presentation late. I figure it had better be good. I tell the rest of the class how I have been building the game using the Unity engine, I tell them a bit about the game which has to do with a dark cloud consuming everything and turning it into a vast expanse of dead nothingness… the player's goal is to restore the world to a natural state. Save forests, clean out lakes… I am giving a demonstration as I talk. I am thinking it came out pretty good. I tell everyone I have the first level completely done, so go ahead and play it if you want. Dallas Cowboys Football I am one of the members of the Dallas Cowboys football team. It is pretty clear that a lot of the men on the team aren't pleased at having a woman on the team at all, and they don't seem to think I will accomplish much. I am one of the offensive linebackers, my primary job is to block and create openings for the rushing back. I am actually doing pretty good. Between the strength my dream body has and the fact the opponents seem to automatically underestimate me because I'm female, I am walking all over them. They don't seem to learn, either. Often times no one bothers picking me up at all, leaving me wide open to do what I want. The game is almost over, and we need one more field goal to win the game. We are way outside of field goal range. But I am also a kicker. There are only a couple seconds left, so nothing to be lost by kicking. I use a computer in my helmet to help me aim the ball and make sure it splits the uprights, my boosted strength drills the ball all the way, a 75 yard field goal. Never been done before! Everyone is cheering, though I wonder if the computer might be considered cheating. I ask the coach, he says it's not cheating… but don't tell the refs. That says to me it is cheating… some of my teammates are still unconvinced that I am an asset to the team. Disney Land I am at Disney Land, and they have a new attraction. It is a water game of sorts. It is done in the water, and the goal is to throw small balls into whirlpools to score points. At the end of the round, whoever has the most points but has not gone over 200 points wins a prize. I go over 200 points very quickly. Damn… There is a way to reduce the score. I am trying to do that, it involves tricky maneuvers through a rocky underwater cave. I get the swim suit all ripped up. When I come out I am in rags. The people running the attraction are pissed. They tell me I have to replace the swim suit for $350. I say no swim suit is that much. They say they will also accept a replacement suit if I can find one. I go shopping. I find a matching suit for $75. I take it back. I briefly wonder if it is the right size… it is XXXL, looks like it would fit a small whale. They say that is no issue, it will shrink to fit whoever wears it, and stretch to fit the larger people. One size fits all swim suits. Um… whatever. A woman the size of a small whale is still having problems getting the suit to stretch enough to fit her.
Last night's dreams seem to be a little more along the lines of my usual dreams, though I was never really lucid. I am figuring that lucidity will improve as my recall improves. Free For All I am a fighter in a game of Dungeons and Dragons Online, I am carrying a nasty and cool looking sword. There is a tournament of some kind going on, where players are all fighting against other players. Things are set up so players can get KO'ed but not killed, so the scores are based on the overall performance and 'kills' by each player. I am fighting against a rather big guy with an even bigger axe. He proves to be very strong, but his tactics are way too predictable. After avoiding a couple of his attacks I am able to identify a pattern in his attacks and get past his defenses. I knock him out and then continue exploring a forest area where the tournament is taking place, it is a very realistic looking forest, looks just as real as any forest in the waking world. I am a bit distracted by the surrounding environment when I get surprised by another player attacking me. This is a man with a sword, and as opposed to the first one, he seems quite a bit more skilled. This fight goes on considerably longer than the first one, but I am finally able to get the upper hand and take him down. I am quite a bit more tired from that fight as I continue exploring the forest. Aquarium Jumping I am at some huge series of aquariums, looking at the various ocean life in them. There are assorted fish, many kinds of fish, in every imaginable color. There are also sharks, stalking the aquariums as if they are on the hunt. I see a woman in the water, she is swimming as if she herself was part fish, swimming like a mermaid and I see she is one… She is jumping like a dolphin. Jumping from one aquarium to another, practically flying between them. It seems the sharks are trying to catch her, jumping out of the water and grabbing at her, but always a bit too slow as she proceeds to the next aquarium. It seems she is trying to jump from aquarium to aquarium until she reaches the safety of an aquarium not far from me where there are only fish, no sharks. I see there is a man in one of the tanks, one of the tanks with sharks in it. He is trying to get to the side of the tank to get out. The mermaid jumps into his tank and tries to get him to hang on to her properly so she can still jump. But instead he seems in a blink panic and is grabbing frantically at the mermaid to keep from being pulled away by a shark. She tries to jump with him on her but can't do it, instead, his blind panic makes him lose his grip and fall back to the water while the mermaid clumsily falls in a neighboring tank. The sharks swarm the man and tear him apart in a feeding frenzy. The mermaid looks sad that she wasn't able to save him, but no less determined to save herself… she takes advantage of the distraction and makes the final few jumps to the safe tank. She swims over to us observers and hands me a beautiful flower, saying life was needlessly lost, but don't let any more sparks die. Imagination Is Real I am in a strange place with some other people. I think one of them is MoSh, another of them might be Nomad… We are all in a world that somehow doesn't seem quite stable, it seems to be changing and shifting around us. The world around us is reforming as time passes, morphing from one form into another. Someone is talking to us, I don't see the person who is speaking, but the voice sounds familiar, maybe it is Q? He is talking about traveling through dimensions without actually opening a portal, just phasing through the dimensional boundaries, sliding sideways sort of through the worlds and watching them slip by. The effect is that one feature morphs into another as everything gradually shifts from one place to another. Mountains slowly smooth out into hills, flat areas rise up to form mountains, low areas fill up with water and then rise up and are covered by trees… buildings sprout out of nowhere and various races of people, not necessarily all human, are living there and going about their lives without seeming to notice us. For a while we are under water and there is a society of dolphins swimming around us. Q says for me to imagine where I want to go and I will soon be there. He says that whatever I can imagine exists somewhere, the universe is that vast. So when one person tells another, "That isn't real… you just made that up…" is really a nonsensical statement since it surely exists somewhere. Precious I am in a room with my ex boyfriend, he is singing a song, I recognize the song is titled Precious by Depeche Mode. It seems he is trying to say he is sorry for how he has treated me in the past. Here are the lyrics to the song: Precious and fragile things, need special handling. My God what have we done to you? We always tried to share, the tenderest of care. Now look what we have put you through. Things get damaged, things get broken. I thought we'd manage but words left unspoken Left us so brittle there was so little left to give… Angels with silver wings shouldn't know suffering. I wish I could take the pain for you If God has a master plan that only He understands I hope it's your eyes He's seeing through. Things get damaged, things get broken. I thought we'd manage but words left unspoken Left us so brittle there was so little left to give… I pray you learn to trust have faith in both of us. And keep room in your hearts for two. Things get damaged, things get broken. I thought we'd manage but words left unspoken Left us so brittle there was so little left to give…
Wanna Get Psycho? I am talking a walk around my house, it is sunny outside, but it isn't really all that hot. I think maybe I am finally adapting to the desert heat. Hukif is there, and seems to find me somewhere between amusing and annoying. He says having endless numbers of FAs won't do me any good if I never remember to RC. I do a RC by pinching my nose and I find I am dreaming. Hukif seems surprised that I actually responded to him by doing the RC instead of making up an excuse not to. He says that it seems to be working, I just need to do better on the RC, I agree with him. I really need to get in better habits of doing RCs. He says I owe him now, but what is it I owe him? I remember saying I would pay lots of isk. He doesn't even know what isk are… he's looking for a fight. Every time in the past that we have made plans to have a fight, something has interfered, so how about now? Unless I'm not lucid enough… I say I'm lucid enough, and we start fighting. The fight seems to be set to the soundtrack of the song "Meaning of Life" by Disturbed. I hear the words to the song clearly, "You're one twisted little fuck, and now you want to get psycho with me?" We are using primarily melee type weapons, he is attacking me with razor claws which I am countering with claws formed by Witchblade, formed to look like Alex Mercer from Prototype. We go on for a short time, no one is getting much through, and then there is a flash of light not far off. Hukif looks quite irritated that someone seems to be interrupting us. He goes over towards the visitor and says he is not welcome. I notice it looks like my ex boyfriend, I ask what he is doing here. He asks what I am doing playing around with dark energy. I tell him it's none of his business, and he needs to go, I'm busy and we don't want to be interrupted. James acts as if he thinks I have lost it. He disappears. I figure I can get back to my fight with Hukif, but instead I hear my cat meowing and I wake. The Goddess of Ultimate Coolness I am in a forest talking a walk, it is a very nice day out. Birds are singing, a gentle breeze is blowing. I hear someone calling out for help, but I don't see anyone anywhere around. I realize the voice is actually speaking inside my mind, and it is looking for help to defend a town against an invasion of orcs. I follow the signal to get to the town being attacked. The town is called Denn, and there are many orcs coming from outside the city, apparently intent on destroying everything. I am thinking there is something affecting them, there is a strange unstable energy around them. I head out into the advancing orc army, there is a soundtrack to this fight, too, and it is Holy Lonely Light by Firebomber. So while I am being forced to fight to keep the orcs from storming into the town, my primary goal is to keep their attention focused on me, so they don't continue advancing on Denn. I am blocking their attacks, dodging their attacks, and returning attacks that are sure not to be lethal. As the fight continues, the song seems to be having an effect on the attacking orcs. They seem to be calming down some, I am wondering what happened to cause them to attack in the first place. The ground is shaking now, cracking open, and a strange thing is reaching out of the ground. There are waves of telepathic energy coming off of it, though I can't see it very well. The music is countering the telepathic control, and it turns out the orcs are not pleased about having been used. They swarm over the thing even as it is climbing out of the ground and trying to reassert its will over the orcs. The Little Pet Shop of Cuteness I am in a pet store of some kind. This brings to mind plans of meeting MoSh to go find an animal called a pipefox which he has seen in an anime series call XXXholic. He described to me a pet store, and the owner of the store… but I don't think this is the place. I have to find MoSh. I focus on opening a portal to where MoSh is, but nothing happens. My portal is not opening at all. I wonder why, and I am finding that frustrating. The shop owner is a small, old, Chinese man and he comes over and asks if I need help selecting a pet. There are colorful fish flying around in the air, following the man as if we were under water. He indicates the fish and says one of them is a great choice… or even better… get a pair! I see some cages with fury hamster like animals in them. The animals are cute and playing around with each other, there are several different sizes of the animals in one cage. The store owner says that shouldn't be that way, they'll kill each other! It doesn't look to me like they're fighting… The store owner opens the cage and starts grabbing the smaller ones and handing them to me, soon I am juggling about seven of the small hamster sized animals. The animals make cure noises in my ears until one of them meows and my cat wakes me.
The Orphanage I am 8 years old, a little girl standing in the lawn and watching a house engulfed in raging flames. I know I am not really this little girl, I am just sharing her body for a short time, but that doesn't mean I can completely block out what she is feeling. I am in control of the body right now, the girl, Jessica… her name is Jessica… wants nothing other than to pretend none of this is happening. Time seems to be missing. Then there are firefighters and cops… it is all very confusing. My mom is dead. My dad is dead. Everyone is gone. The man talking to me says there is only one thing to do with me now, I know he means an orphanage. He takes a drink from a glass that I suspect is booze and then throws it in my face. It stinks. He is suddenly angry, he says I should have burned with the rest of them, how dare I survive? He throws a lit cigarette at me and the alcohol ignites instantly. I wake up just as I start feeling the searing pain and hear the sizzle of my skin burning and even smell it cooking… I am in bed now, I am still a little girl, sheathed in sweat. I can still smell and hear my flesh burning… but it doesn't hurt. Wait… that's not me burning… someone's cooking bacon… I roll over in bed. I hear the sound of other children sleeping around me, there are many others in this room. I am on the lower bunk, there is another kid above me, there are six bunk beds crammed into this tiny room. It makes it really hard to move around. I smell eggs, bacon, and pancakes being cooked now. Of course those aren't for us kids… I close my eyes and try to sleep. There is a hole here, as if time passed, and then we are in a different place, there are a lot of creepy looking men there. A man, she is my foster mother, says today I will be visiting Uncle Frank. I get a shiver at the mention of Uncle Frank. So in a room alone with Uncle Frank I immediately think he is the creepiest guy ever. He says he has candy for me, he knows I like his candy. Yuck. He pulls his pants down. I tell him to put that disgusting thing away before I make it rot off. He gets a surprised look, probably at the statement and the defiance in it. He has not taken action so I repeat my threat. He says he won't take that shit from a cock-sucker like me. I say he was warned. I walk over to where he is standing with his thing sticking out at full attention. I pull some squirmy things from my pocket and sprinkle them on his member. They are maggots. He freaks a bit and tries to brush them off, but the maggots are eating their way into his favorite body part. He is in panic, screaming and trying to get the bugs off, they are spreading rot through the flesh. The door opens and a couple people come in, one of them is my foster dad. They don't understand Uncle Frank's panic since only Frank and I are able to see the infestation. Non-Lucid Insanity I am walking down Camino De Mañana towards the freeway interchange, which is relatively new. I am taking a walk. I see someone else there, and the first name that comes to mind is Walms. What is Walms doing in Tucson? I speak his name and he seems a bit annoyed. He says Walms is dead, how many times does he have to tell me? Wait… if Walms is dead, that means I see dead people! Awesome! I plan in my mind how I can be the next Melinda Gordon, the Ghost Whisper. He says I'm clearly not lucid. He asks if I am feeling ok? Not really. I haven't been lucid since forever. My mind is a fog as thick as pea soup. And I see a dead Walms. He repeats that there is no Walms here... Hukif. He is Hukif, try to remember that. Remember? Yeah... I do remember now… Walms died and that whole situation sucked on many levels. And Walms played his dreams in permadeath mode, so he stayed dead... which led to a permasuck situation. Then there was Hukif who announced he hates me, but no big thing, I hate me, too... which sucks. People suck. I suck. I pause to count the number of times I have used the word 'suck' in the past five minutes. I tell Hukif sorry... you don't want to hear me bitch. People who bitch too much suck. Hukif says I lost it. Yeah, I have. No lucids. No time for lucids. No time to journal, or to have read other DJs. But I still get messages about posts… Hukif is having as epic recall as ever… so many lucids. I want to FA like Walms used to. I need to go back and jack his FA before he permadeathed. Or buy them. That would be worth paying for. Lots of isk. Hukif says I'm dreaming right now. I say I would settle for one FA per night. Hukif seems bored. He says he is going to go fight something assuming he can. Of course you can, why not? Find someone and AAAHHH!!! What the FUCK is that? UBER YUCK! Is that SNOT coming from his giant oozing nose pimple?! Are those cockroaches coming from his mouth to eat the snot? Is that white pus coming from the moldy spot on his forehead full of squirmy maggots? GROSS! That is sooooo UBER GROSS! Hukif says it's cute. I think I'm gonna hurl. Instead I laugh at the absurdity as spiders crawl from a festering wound on its arm. I can't stop laughing. The creature looks sad to be laughed at, that look makes me laugh harder. I can't stop. Hukif asks what I would pay for FAs. Lots. Lots and lots of isk. Isk? Interstellar Kredits. With isk you can buy almost anything. Fine, here. But I owe him one. The creature distracts me from Hukif when it vomits slugs... Yuck! I start laughing again. He eats his slugs. I feel like laughing and puking. I laugh. Hukif grabs my arm... I feel a sobering surge of dark energy. Not a bad thing. He says now you will FA. The creature's eye falls out. He eats the eye, it rolls up inside the head and back to the eye socket. He plucks it out and eats it again. The cycle continues. Hukif looks irritated and tells Nomad to quit it. Nomad? I laugh more and laugh myself awake.
Asuka in a Bed of Flowers I am inside MoSh's inner world, I am in the living room with MoSh and Asuka. I remember that MoSh wanted me to check on Asuka to be sure there is nothing infecting her or causing her any kind of harm, and I agreed to do that. I ask Asuka if she has any problems with that, and she says to go ahead, though she has been feeling fine. MoSh comments that there won't be any harm in checking. I transport the three of us to the healing glen, it seems that the glen is the best place to do the healing check. Asuka is lying in a bed of flowers, she seems to like the garden very much. The instrumental version of the song Voices from the Macross Plus soundtrack is playing as golden light comes out of the flowers themselves and surrounds Asuka in their healing energy. Asuka is floating over the flowers with the golden energy flowing all around and through her, it seems to be cleansing her. I don't notice anything strange, no parasites being washed out, no dark energy being purged. If there is any of that, it's being completely destroyed. I figure I might have been here earlier to heal her, I might have done that during a dream I don't remember since my recall has been really crappy. After the healing is done, MoSh asks if I want to come back to his place for a party. I say I really don't want to sit around and watch the activity MoSh and Asuka most likely want to engage in. MoSh says they don't have to be doing that, but I tell him I will be having more dreams. Heir to the Throne I am in a city I don't recognize, it seems to be a cross between a futuristic city and a medieval village. The combination results in buildings that look futuristic, but the layout is that of a small village from an RPG of some kind. It also seems that there are problems going around, everyone looks very nervous. It really feels like I'm in a RPG, so I act like I would in a RPG. I start moving around the town and listening to people talking, talking to a few people I see… and I find out there has been a tragedy recently. I finally am able to piece together the horrible recent events. Some unidentified attacker has just killed the king and queen, brutally. It seems the assailant, sick enough to be on a Criminal Minds episode, had tied up both the king and the queen, raped both of them repeatedly, then brutally butchered them both. Also the 14 year old prince had been hiding in the closet, he saw the whole thing. The boy is very traumatized, and he has been unresponsive ever since… the killing was two weeks ago. With the king and queen dead, even though the prince is only 14 years old, they need him to be fit to accept the crown. But he can't do that if he's catatonic, so the legal provisions have that a very unpopular and greedy asshole would become king. So, I'm a healer, and I go to the palace which is a very interesting blend of futuristic and medieval architecture. It takes some convincing, but I manage to get in to see the prince, who is sitting near the back of the throne room with a pillow, holding it like a teddy bear… the pillow smells of perfume. There is a portrait of the king and queen hanging on the wall, so I figure it is the perfect way to reach him… I transform into the queen's form and use the song spell My Last Breath by Evanescence. When the boy comes out of his state, he fingers the asshole who killed his parents… the same asshole who stood to take the crown! Well, that's a rather cliché motive, but it works. Gilligan's Island Lost I am on a tropical island that immediately reminds me of the old television series, Gilligan's Island. It is a very beautiful place, it is also very peaceful there. I can hear the birds singing in the trees, I see animals moving around in the bushes and trees, a nice breeze is blowing in off of the ocean. Wandering a bit farther, I find a crystal clear stream running past some huts made out of wood with grass type roofs, it seems there are people living here. I go over to the small homes and I see the cast from Gilligan's Island all going about their daily business, that is until they see me. Gilligan sees me first, he stops and stares at me for a couple minutes before saying anything at all. He finally calls the skipper, who calls back, "What?" Gilligan just says there's a girl on the island. The skipper responds that of course there is, there are three of them! Finally the skipper comes out, along with the others, and they see me there. Questions are asked, including how I came to be on the island, do I have a boat, am I here to rescue them. I tell them I can take them to the mainland. They are all thrilled at that news. Everyone is getting some things together to bring with them, I hear Mr. and Mrs. Howell talking about opening a resort on the island. I tell him I hope he is kidding. He says no, he is serious. I say that means I'm going to get them off the island so they can come back and destroy it? He says of course not, he wants to improve it, get rid of some of this wildness. I tell him I can't take them home and let them come back to destroy the island, it is pristine, it needs to stay that way. Gilligan says he really wants to go home. I get an idea on what to do. I tell them to say goodbye, they won't be seeing the island again. Mr. Howell says he's sure he will. I open a portal to get all of them to the mainland, then I return to the island. A bit of magical protection is in order. Some magical wards, spells that cause ships or planes to veer around the island without realizing they have changed course… moving the island into a parallel dimensional pocket… summoning some powerful pokémon that will be able to blend into the environment without harming anything, but they will be able to protect the island… Once I am satisified that the island will be protected I spend the rest of the dream exploring it.
