Friday December 2nd 2022 Oh… sorry didn’t know he would go all crazy on us. Will fix it. I am talking to someone in my house, become lucid while doing so and start to ignore them, don’t want to be here any longer. SO just teleport somewhere else, try to go back to the same planet as yesterday but it seems the people are pissed at how I resolved things, so just summon a guardian for this planet and leave again. This time I am in another random universe. There seems to be a lot of weird women going in and out of the place, so just block them while trying to find a good place to be at. Don’t find anything too interesting so think about teleporting to a random location with humans when one of the girls strikes me from the back with a big energy spell. I just absorb it and turn around, smile at her and crunch her with my hair then fly towards a random planet in this universe… maybe not universe? I am not sure, end up somewhere not too far away from my original location and just float down to the ground. Now that I am on the ground try to remember my goals, I think summoning is the first one… or was it phasing? I want to do these in order but remembering is kind of hard. While trying to think start walking towards a small shop, get a cake slice and eat it, the guy asks me for money so create currency of this planet and provide it to him. Back to sleep. I am walking down the street, it is dawn and… oh yeah I am dreaming. Star to think about goals but gluttony gets the best out of me and I start to walk towards the shop from before, get more cakes and since last time I gave a lot of money to the guy he does not say anything about it to me. Now that I have gotten to eat more cake, need to think of ways to actually do my goals. SO the first one is to summon something right? Or was it to… control something. I can’t remember properly. So the first thing I do is create a few manga in front of me, select one of them. Yes, Inuyasha was quite fun to read back when I was younger. Now that I got it pick the book, open it and start to check its content. Naraku! That guy was a great final boss. Now, what was the reason he was so great? He had the ability to devour other yokai and get their powers and grow stronger himself. Touch the page an then bring him out of it, the guy is now in front of me in his casual white fox like thing he carries around. “Where am I?” he says while looking around, then prepares to jump out of the way to investigate when I stop him “You have been summoned by me” tell him, he is about to ask about the others such as Kagome, Inuyasha and Kikio but stop him “Do not think about them, they do not exist in this world” tell him and prepare to give him instructions. The guy tries to attack me, so just slam him against the ground, was my goal really to summon? Or was it to… phase first, then summon? Since can’t remember and want to check, decide I will be waking up and once I am back in the dream will see what to do. Before waking myself up, pick up Naraku and toss him inside of the universe of GOH with Mori Jin and the like, then keep going with my goal. Back to sleep. Checking my cell phone, it basically is weightless which makes me lucid and then realize that I fell asleep before checking the goals… oh come on! I will just do a bit of everything and will at least get ONE of them done tonight. Finally stop looking at the phone, drop it on the ground and look around, same planet as before uh? Start moving and prepare to summon something again, get the manga and prepare to choose a new character, but decide against it, because that was done already. Banishing maybe? Ok, but what do I do this on? A random DC from the location? A woman is not too far from me and maybe I could just banish her, but is that even good? Try to get over to her and a car is about to run me over, between letting the car get destroyed or phasing through just phase through it and keep walking. Once I reach the woman she stares at me since she saw what happened and starts running. Stop her with TK and make her come back to me and wonder if this is really the right thing to do. Then something hits me in the head, a metal bat apparently. Someone got afraid and decided to attack me, so funny! Push them out of the way using TK also and then just prepare to banish the woman before something traps me inside of a bubble. Who is it? I look up and see a man placing both of his hands to create the bubble. I touch it and see his face toughen as if he was applying more strength when I touch it. Start to toy with the bubble and the guy starts to sweat profusely, just keep going until he gives out and see a missile come my way. Jump towards it, grab it, turn around and send it back where it came from and see debris fly all around us. OH! Also had the goal to fight one certain type of creature, maybe if I destroy enough they will come and won’t have to go and look for them? But this planet is too small. Create something to the poison that protects me from before, but this time it will start attacking universes randomly, someone is due to either come or try and stop it, and if they can stop the new poison they should be strong enough for me to fetch a good fight, but wake up before anything can be done. Back to sleep. I am home, preparing some tea and being with family. For some reason husband is not home and I become lucid, use Scan since normally he is always close to me, even in dreams. Apparently I am not married in this version of my home. Anyways not important, go back to that planet where I was at before and just start to think about goals. Have been doing a lot of random stuff and not actually working on the goals I need to work on. When I prepare to do it something strange happens, and suddenly I see Mori Jin come out of a door to his universe. He says I need to help with the shit I dumped on his universe, what shit? He says there is a huge monster that has been eating everything in his universe and basically is now toppling everyone over and going to other universes because he got a part of his powers. Oh! Naraku? I ask him what the guy looks like and he describes Naraku perfectly. That crazy bandit still going about his antics in other universes uh. Apparently he is getting stronger by the minute and I find this all too strange, how did this happen? Naraku is strong for Inuyasha standards, but he should have been stomped hard in the GOH universe, how did he manage to even steal stuff from Mori? Read his mind and apparently he used actual evil tactics and took hostages, which let him have the chance to eat strong warriors and eventually steal stuff from Mori. Tell him exactly that, that he should be able to… wait a minute, did I not let him go seconds ago? Teleport along with Mori to his universe and see that time flows differently, in fact it is so different that in the few minutes he was with me Naraku has taken possession of everything in this universe to the point of just having a massive void. Reverse time to when Mori moved over to me and tell him to mind his own business, he should be able to win if he fought in earnest, but they are dumb like always and allowed themselves to get worn out and this is why they were losing, and restore them all back to their prime including to when they had the skills of the Jade Emperor and the Wi-Fi plus the blade of Tathagata and fully restore the body of Mori and also Satan, then leave to the other universe again. Once I arrive try to think of new things to do but already lost a lot of time with the Mori issue when I see someone showing up again, they are from neither Manga and just banish them casually out of existence since I want to… wait a minute, how did Mori get over to me? Wake up while trying to figure that one out. Back to sleep. I am back home, talking to niece and nephew. They are being overly annoying but don’t mind it too much and go to sleep inside of the dream, which takes me to the other world… oh, I was dreaming already nice. So once I am there preparing to leave. Quickly start flying towards space when I see Mori being thrown at me from a gate in worse shape than he was before, I grab him and can feel blood in his body “What happened?” I ask him, he says the guy grew way stronger than before and started invading other universes. I find this amusing and maybe thought it out loud because Mori seemed annoyed at me and said I needed to fix it “So Naraku is now a multiverse threat uh?”, Mori just gets weaker and weaker so I am about to heal him when a tentacle comes out of the gate and starts pulling him back in. I prepare to stop time in order to avoid this from happening when I see the left eye of Naraku glow in the darkness of the gate as one of the eyes of Mori in another universe whom controls time does. He actually blocked me? That moment of surprise was enough for Naraku to take Mori back and I guess kill him. This was actually getting me excited! Look around and see that everyone is currently not moving, including the wind itself. So I did stop time, but Naraku was immune to it! Damn, now I want to fight him and see to what extent he is growing stronger. For some reason he must think I am some kind of enemy since he took Mori away from me, he must have come to this conclusion when I reverted time and healed the guys, oh well. And the next thing I know is a huge gate opens above me and tentacles start coming down. I let them phase through me and then it goes directly to the world below me “Don’t, this world isn’t so bad” tell Naraku, but he continues. I stop phasing and grab his tentacles, then inject them with poison of my own and it starts breaking down. He then shots energy down at me which I stop by eating it and grab Naraku, bring him to this universe then fly him to space and smack him with a planet. It does nothing at all, he just eats it. Don’t know how he got this much stronger in such a short time, but I for sure want to continue the battle! Quickly let time flow again and disperse Naraku and me from the flow of gravity of this universe. He feels this one, as the galaxy we were on keeps on moving and several collisions happen while he is just there standing. He defends himself then gets enraged and throws several tentacles at me, they are still like his normal attacks. One of them however, stops time. I block that and fly towards him while creating a claw and cutting through them, reach over to his main body but can’t hurt him as he teleports out of the way and is met by a marble of energy right behind his head that blows him up. He starts to gather himself again and I punch him hard enough to blow his body across this universe. He then creates portals and attacks from different locations. I use teleportation plus high speed eating and eat his attacks. He then finds that he can’t actually retrieve what I have eaten and tries a big attack by gathering an immense amount of energy in his palm then throwing it at me. Eh, this will kill the universe if I let it go, so simply chomp it and then grab Naraku and fly way outside of the range of this universe, into a void of nothingness then stab him with my hair and place my palm on his chest and infect him. Naraku takes a lot of damage it seems because he vomits some white and purple blood with insects in it… ok. Cute. He starts to gather more energy and I prepare to block when he disappears through a portal. Prepare to follow through when I wake up into the home from before then wake up for real. Back to sleep. I am back home… not lucid obviously. This is annoying, family is talking to me, I am talking to them, they are about to leave and want me to go with them but I declined them. Once they are leaving prepare to go back to sleep and try to WILD, enter the same dream as before and wake up due to a family member poking me side “Come on Faby!” tell her and make her leave… wait, I am already dreaming, don’t need to WILD. Just teleport back to where I was at before and then a crack in space-time happens and a red-golden coloured tentacle moves at high speed towards me. Instinctively fly out of its way and grab it, then get a huge shock which actually surprises me, let it go and then two more come from behind. Grab them this time and send the shock back. Naraku is back, fully healed and stronger than before. His mask becomes a huge jaw that comes for me so I create several big crunches all around me that destroy his mouth, then see him leave again and come back, fully healed once more and again stronger, this keeps going several times until I finally get pissed off about this whole ordeal. When he is about to leave cancel the causality of his actions and bring him back forcefully and then start reading his mind with Scan, AH! That is what he was doing, he was actually going to other universes that already exist, manipulating time in it and then once he had devoured it would come back. Since I was inside his mind, he tried to attack my mind and ended up getting a huge backlash, just to be slapped down by me; he staggers some and then a huge barrier is created around me, it seems to be made out of water but at the moment of being touched it creates incredibly high temperatures and explodes, without breaking the barrier. The guy uses this opportunity while I am looking at the barrier to go away and then I am left with this huge barrier around me. Start to examine it and keep getting attacked by the barrier. Alright! Start by sticking out my tongue and stretching it towards the barrier and lick it, get a sample and then start to dissolve it and eat it just with my tongue while ignoring the heat and explosions. The barrier starts to slowly dissolve and I want it to be done faster, so increase time for my enzymes and just absorb the thing, then realize it is still active and starts exploding inside of me. Control the barrier and fully absorb it into my body. Once I am done prepare to look for Naraku when I see him flying down at me, good job! He got strong enough that did not see his obvious gate open up. It seems like his teleportation is much smoother now. I block and this time get slightly sent back, also his punch has enough strength that even though I had moved him so far away from the other universe it starts to crack and basically all life on it gets extinguished. He is mad I still have time to be worried about that universe and his palm opens up, some kind of black hole forms in the palm of his hand and he tries to strike me with that, so I strike back with open palm and send him flying while restoring the universe and prepare to properly fight him when he disappears again. He appears again from behind, block his attack with my clothes and then create a stasis to prevent him from just running away. He blocks the stasis and is about to leave once more, so grab his head and create a link between him and me, place my head right on his and throw him back a bit then clap my hands quickly and teleport us both to a new location. This is a multiverse system I just created so he stops destroying shit randomly. He is about to analyse the world and a way to escape the link I created between us while I take the time to make a barrier around this system and block his attempts at escaping, also create several self-repairing seals. He is enraged and the next thing I know is he is behind me and several dozens of the red-gold tentacles he had attacked with before are coming towards me. Except this time, they are strong enough that them just moving towards me is ripping apart the fabric of reality of this space. Grab one with both hands and start to cancel its power, then all the other tentacles come at me at full speed. Take out tentacles out of my hair and block and attack them, diving my hair through his tentacles and going for his body. When I reach, he is no longer there. Use Scan and locate him not too far from my location so teleport next to him and punch him, send him flying back then teleport again in front of him. He spits poison which I eat and then grab his head and start to inject some of my weird energy onto him. He absorbs it readily and finds out it is infested. He is good at poisons and tries to fight it off, then his body starts to decay and this time he is the one who claps. Apparently this is a cleansing technique he learnt from a universe he has eaten already. I know that technique, annoying little bastards. He realizes I get annoyed and once again claps his hands and does the trick, I just let it wash over and make it all darkness, then send it back at him. He tries again but can’t fight it back this time. Starts flying away while attacking with his normal poison tentacles. I follow suit and destroy them on the way, his poison is slowly entering my body and just at the same time I am letting my cells decode it and create an antidote to fight it off, while that happens stop destroying them and just phase through them. Naraku starts to get more and more afraid that he will lose and tries to escape quicker, but is met by the barrier and the several seals placed, which make him jerk back to me. It seems he finally realizes there is no longer any way to move out of the way and tries to face me directly. He tries to eat several of the universes in this system, which leads to his clones being eaten instead along with the universes, then being condensed into one inside my body and devoured. He tries to fly out of the way, so teleport in front of him. This happens several times and I assume he is out of tricks so grab his white fox mask, he replies by trying to claw my hands off and fails to do so. More of those weird tentacles come at me, stop them with my own hair tentacles and destroy them then dive my hand on his chest, take off his mask and eat it then shock him. He hides his face and grabs as much malice as he can from everyone he has killed as of right now. I place my head next to his and kiss him to absorb it all faster and also let him have a taste of my own curse, the guy tries to shake me off violently, some kind of golden light gathers around us and millions of weird lightning start to strike towards me, but it makes no difference. Once I am done with the curse, start to devour him from the inside out. That was fun.
Thursday December 1st 2022 I don’t remember, so will just spam. I am talking to my boss and not very happy about it, become lucid while doing so and decide to ignore the guy, there are way more important things to do right now. Teleport over to a new world and start to think about what I must be doing right now. Remember vaguely something about a different competition than normal but don’t remember exactly what I needed to do. Currently flying in the middle of space out there in Lyseno, not exactly doing anything. Teleport outside of my PR and just start wandering space, taking this loneliness to try and think and remember, but nothing comes to mind. Oh well, since I can’t remember will just spam abilities and something may actually be what I needed to do… unless its highly specific? In that case it won’t work. Use Scan to find the planet that is closest with life, but it seems primitive and not funny at all so start looking for a planet that has living creatures but nothing I would like to be working with. There is one really distant from my location where a bunch of tribes that seem to be human are starting to gain advantage and want to basically seize everything for themselves, so could go there and stop them, that one sounds good. Its only a few hundred light years away, so fly quickly over there and reach before the dream ends. By the time I get there the civilization is way more advanced… oh yeah, I was just collecting visual images rather than essences, which means I was watching the past of this place, and now I don’t like it as much because that tribe was really able to seize stuff… GAH! Decisions, wake up before I know what to do, still flying somewhat high. Back to sleep. I am inside of a crystal cell. Get up and hit my head with the top of the cell… damn! Also realize I am abnormally heavy so I must be sleeping. So… how did I get here? Better use Scan properly this time to figure out the reason. OH! They saw me fall from the sky and sustain 0 injuries so obviously the right thing to do was to imprison me in this weird cell that was barely enough for me to be inside of since they didn’t know how strong I was. Oh well, not like it will do anything now, some guards come saying they saw me wake up when I just casually stand up straight, break the cell and then start walking out of the way, thankfully nothing seems to be lost from my clothes. Everyone seems surprised and they point some kind of laser gun at me, the moment they do I control wind and take off their arms, so the laser guns just fall directly to the ground while I keep walking. It seems I was trapped in some kind of tower. Walk to the nearest window, touch it and then just jump down. Once I am down from the place start to search for the head of this empire when someone fetches me from behind. They feel friendly so don’t do anything at all with the person, just let them take me along for the ride. Apparently they wanted to save me but there was no need for that, from what the girl who is running and grabbing my hand is thinking. She somehow realizes I am reading her mind and stops in her tracks, then tells me it will be faster if I just see the location and take us there. I comply and teleport us both to the location she is thinking of, this is much more nature oriented than the place I was on before, full of crystals and technology and people I wanted to kill and destroy. The girl says this is their hideout and they saw me too, suddenly appearing out of nowhere and then falling. They assumed I would wake up and free myself and they wanted my help. Tried to ask them why they thought it was a good idea to talk to me but woke up at that point. Back to sleep. I am sitting on a moss bed, become lucid near instantly and get up. I like this place much better, there are no guards, a bed made of moss, a lot of flowers, trees and what not all around us. But I feel like this is a dying forest. While the people who brought me here decide to show up start to think about my goals, I know that one of them is advanced phasing and I think another one is summoning so will do that. First thing first though, expand Scan to all of the forest and just as I had thought, the forest is dying. It seems to be alive and is being eaten by the constant technological development of the people from the city, since they use the life force of the forest for their own life style. What I do is simple, give the forest a means to defend against this usage and cut off all current cycles and connections done, which makes it shine brighter in a glowing green light than it was on before. I think this alerts the people who had been with me, because the girl comes inside instantly and then grabs both my hands, saying she made the right decision. I shrug and take off my hands off of hers and tell her that I just did what was right, and need to get going. This place, despite being open in the forest area is still a room with proper walls so she leads me to the door and asks me if this will be enough “Once I kill everyone in the city” I say, and just keep walking. Apparently they are not very happy about this and some of her friends come along and they try to stop me, just jump over their heads and land on a mossy rock a few hundred meters ahead of us, they start following but are too slow. I know they can use some sort of magic but try not to. Not too far from there, find a huge boulder, as mossy as the one I landed on. I really like this place, you can see the tiny micro blades or leafs of the moss, the tiny “flowers” and what not, it’s all so beautiful. Then I hear these guys actually used magic in order to get here faster. Too much trouble to explain to them I don’t care about their ideals and will just kill everyone, so instead of talking to them decided to do the first task and simply keep walking. They seem confused since there is this huge boulder but just phase through it while still walking, then start floating until I reach out of the boulder and am floating quite high. Didn’t know that thing was THIS tall, tall enough that now I could see the city in the distance. Start flying towards the city but can hear noise coming from the waking world and decide to lay low, and end up waking up before I can do anything else. Back to sleep. I am walking down a strange forest. Get distracted by the glowing flowers, by the long vines, by the tall trees, the cold climate and the mossy floor as well as the evergreen leaves that seem to dance in the air. Once I stop being dumb and distracted and regain lucidity remember I have to hurry up… given the amount of noisy coming from waking life, will end up waking soon and don’t have much time. Try to remember the next goal, I think it is summoning and then de-summoning or something, so float again high enough as to see the city, then start flying towards it. Once at the city start getting shot with the lasers, just ignore that and raise my hand and start to gather energy, then draw a magic circle and summon a giant machine on top of the city, that will make the people in the city understand technology is bad right? It starts to rotate and gears moving loudly can be heard, the thing starts shooting everyone inside of the city that basically agreed with the drainage of the life force of the forest. Connect it to my Scan in order to make sure I get everyone and once they are all dead prepare to banish the machine but then the noise gets more annoying and end up waking up.
The earliest parts of the dream I can still remember involve going around a house at night so that I can listen to different pieces of music being played on various radios and other equipment. All the rooms are dark, and I think I’m trying to avoid being seen by somebody. There’s a deliberate quality to what I’m doing, like it’s some task I’ve got to complete. Then, walking through a large room, possibly some kind of storage space, I remember that I’m dreaming, and so I can just do what I want. I walk further. Up ahead are two large windows set at an angle. I can see scenes playing out on the other side – it alternates between a bird’s-eye view of a large herd of dinosaurs of various kinds that looks a little unrealistic and something else I can no longer remember. (This was circa 4-5 am, not long after I’d finally managed to fall asleep, which would explain the relatively fluid, early-dream quality to some of the imagery.) I decide I want to get a closer look at the dinosaurs, so I jump through the glass when they’re visible. I start somewhere above them and to one side, but flying seems unusually difficult. I just feel too exhausted for it and float down towards the ground. But once I land, there’s suddenly someone there – I think at first that he’s my father, but it’s immediately obvious that he isn’t – the thought was probably a lingering remnant of the nonlucid dream that preceded this one. I ask him who he is. He seems a little sad at the question and, in fact, never actually answers it – he only says something that implies my not knowing already indicates some unfortunate state of affairs. We fly together – it is much easier now, with him. He wants to head back into the building I originally came out of, which is quite tall, almost like an office building. I ‘recognize’ various rooms I see through the glass. Among our surroundings out here, though, I can now see a place that strikes me as familiar among the array of them surrounding us in a rather physics-defying way. It’s hard to describe my impression of it – it’s like I’m looking into a realm that is the night sky, filled with colorful ballooning shapes, a little like kites, which I know to be sentient beings. I have good memories of that place. It isn’t just familiar: it feels as if, in some way, I belong there. I’m reluctant to go back inside when it is once again right here in front of me. But I follow my companion back through the glass, somewhat higher up than the level I exited from. We walk through a close, dark space which I know to be a puppet theater and into the room beyond, at which point I awaken. 3.12.22
12.3.2022 - WBTB about 3:15-3:35 - Awake again at 5:35am. Had had the following dreams: Some Fragmentary Memories: (1) They have decided to play movies on the moon. Somehow, they found a way to project them onto the surface of the moon, such that they are visible from Earth through a telescope. My brother has been trying to set up a telescope, but I think he is missing a lens. I find the lens, and finish setting up the telescope so that we can see the movie...Something about working with a setup of electronic parts. Resistors, I think. We have to keep them in order. (2) At a store. I have a jar or bottle of some kind of green tea, which I’m supposed to put back on a shelf. I don’t know exactly where it is supposed to go, but eventually find the right spot. (3) At my apartment. I go outside. It is night. There is someone (a lady, I think) kind of slinking around out back. I put together some kind of wall, associated with the word “prohibition”. I go looking for firewood, I think. Then I go to a shed, but am a bit worried that there might be vagrants hanging out in there. (4) My notes from the night say “sabotage, black powder rifle”. I remember being in a room, and having a black powder rifle. I was going to do something with it, and there was at least one other person involved. Pouring black powder down the barrel and trying to ram it in place with something... (5) We have a cart with a big package on it. The package is full of body parts from a murder. We are opening it, and I can see the bones of the carcass against the plastic that is wrapping it. Once the package is opened, the body parts appear to be in cakes of some kind of gel. This is a famous collection, apparently. I remark on how we are looking at the same things that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle once looked at. Awake again by 10:00am Looking for a Book At the church that I went to when I was little. I have a book, but apparently left it in the sanctuary. It was up front somewhere, in a place that I had been sitting (like a choir section). I go there to look for it before we leave (my Mom is there, I think). My former Sunday school teacher from another church is there. Now it is kind of like I’m in his house. I don’t see the book, but he has a lot of other books on shelves. I look on the shelves. For a moment I think I see a textbook written by someone I know, but on closer inspection it appears that I was wrong. I look on another shelf, but still don’t find the book that I’m looking for. Meanwhile, I fall asleep. I’m woken up later by my Mom knocking on the door. She was waiting for me and has come looking for me. ...A fragment about walking up a hill on a college campus (kind of a blend of campuses that I have been on, I think). I think to myself that this is the kind of place that I often dream about, and I think I do a reality check. Unfortunately, I don’t remember what happened after that. Note: this might have been a part of the dream above, so I won't count it as a separate fragment for the competition. Boat and Secret Bases We are on a boat. I think we might start out in a car, actually, but our road takes us to a lake. As we start out on the water there is a sign that says “road closed”. We discuss what this might mean, since we aren’t on a road but on a lake. It seems like the lake is narrowing. There is an airplane flying overhead. The airplane dives down and then into the lake ahead of us. It goes under water and then out again, like a diving bird. It does this a couple of times. As we keep boating, we come across a fence and a gate that is blocking our way. It appears to be some kind of military base. As we approach the gate, some soldier-type guys open it for us, and then demand that we pull over to the side. They seem to not be happy with us for trespassing at this base. A man lectures us about how they have guns planted on the bridge overpass that we came through, and how they could have shot us. They are going to make us leave, or confiscate our boat, or something. I point out that the road shouldn’t be too far from where we are, so maybe we could walk to the road and call an Uber to come and pick us up. It seems to take one or two tries for this idea to get across. I don’t know if we end up taking the advice or if I just start thinking about it and the dream scene changes to us moving to land and going up a road. But we find ourselves inside a building. We walk down a hall and go downstairs. Here we come across a secret hideout for some kind of organized crime racket or corporation, or something. It is like a fancy nightclub atmosphere, but quiet and “respectable”, such as you might see the really rich and powerful villain in a movie hanging out in. I comment on how they have a secret hideout underneath a secret military base. This is amusing to me. More Fragments (6) Something about the American Revolution. We might be re-enacting it? Or somehow communicating with revolutionaries? This dream seems a bit difficult to follow. I’m talking with someone from Scotland. Meanwhile I’m trying to cook something on the stove. I have a tarp that keeps getting close to the burner and I’m concerned that it might catch on fire. It has started melting already. (7) I have some bags of trash/junk. I’m planning to get rid of them to clear some space (this might be part of the stove dream above). Mom is there. I think she asks me what I’m doing with a couple of the bags. I plan to take them somewhere (to my room? My truck?). (8) Something about aliens in a car. We might be chased by aliens. They end up getting under our seats, but then someone does this thing where they push the seats forward and pin them against the front of the car. (9) Building something with dowel rods. There are holes in the sides of a box, but when I go to put dowel rods in it appears that some are bigger than the rods that I have. Then I see that there are tubes of a wider diameter. As the dream progresses, it seems that I’m making tubes. It seems like there are some tough guys that I need to prove myself to. I have a device that should make tubes of the diameter that we need. It involves a rotating thing mounted on a wheel (or wheels) that goes on a kind of track. Mom’s new house Mom buys a new house. I go to check it out. I think it’s sad that she is moving, but the house is fairly nice on the inside. It is also “finished”, which apparently the other house wasn’t. This includes cabinets and trim. We go upstairs, and it appears that they are still working on the floors. The floors are almost finished though (actually, they are finished in a couple of the rooms, I think). We find that the previous owners left a bunch of things behind. At first I think I see a cider press and get kind of excited. On closer inspection though, it appears to be some other gadget, like a potato planter. Then I think I see a cider press for real. On closer inspection, this seems to not be a cider press either. Instead, it’s something where you rotate a ball and it screws up inside of a glass globe for some reason. I think maybe it could be used to press grapes or something. I think as I look at it I see birdseed inside. I keep looking at the things that the previous owner has left, and now it seems that most of it has to do with feeding birds. There are bags of birdseed around. As we keep looking though, it turns out that the guy has kept a lot of things, like what you might find at a hardware store. There are chemicals, paintbrushes, and clothes. They are in aisles and on racks, like in a store. I wonder why he has all this stuff, and someone (my Mom, perhaps) says that he might have been a prepper and was hoarding things in case something happened. I think this is odd, because the things that he was hoarding didn’t seem like they would be particularly helpful in such a case.

He then says "OK I'll answer you" and describes how (I see visuals inside my head as he talks) about how the prep for the surgery involved drawing red cutting lines along the eye and apparently these were out of position and cut a critical tendon or muscle. I say "Now I'm going to have to walk around with eyedrops and squirt them into my eyes every 10 seconds for the rest of my life!". Then I'm moving with someone (maybe that surgeon?) in to a restaurant, we're being seated, a waiter has our plates of food, I see other people seated as we walk by, someone ordered the same thing as me and the plate is half-eaten, and the waiter comments "That guy did a good job!" (eating as much as he did), I don't see how it's so good. The plates are placed on the table, it's a round white plate with a round brown piece of meat and other things like peas.
Night #1 (slept at night on the 1st but woke up on the 2nd, can't edit the title) Non-Lucid Dream: I'm in a small bookstore, my family is waiting for me outside. It is nighttime, and we are in Seattle. I look through the books on the shelves, but nothing is interesting to me. The employee behind the desk asks me if I'm gonna choose a book already, which pressures me to find one. However, there's nothing I really want to get. I keep looking, and I come across a basket of free, fresh bread rolls above a shelf. For some reason, I feel guilty about not choosing a book, because they made these rolls and I should compensate them for it! Maybe there's something in the Young Adult section, I think? I haven't checked that one yet. I look through the shelves to find the shelf with that genre, but I can't find it. I noticed that this dream is about being unable to pick a book at a bookstore. This has actually happened to me numerous times when I go to the bookstore! Also, the guy getting mad at me for looking too long was straight out of a post I read online before sleeping about that happening to someone, which is interesting to me. All in all, I'm happy I was already able to have something for my dream journal after a multiple month long dry streak. Hopefully we can keep this pace up for the rest of the competition!

Killer Whales Walking along a beach. There are lots of people around, apparently getting ready for a festival. It is like a regatta, with lots of boats, but apparently there are killer whales involved. I think the boats are going out to fish for the whales, or something. There is a ring of buoys marking off an area near the shore, beyond which are the boats, I think. I wonder if the buoys are marking off a safe place for people to swim. People are out in the water, some of them swimming after the boats. I think to myself that I wouldn’t want to be out there among the killer whales... I feel like the following was a separate dream from "Killer Whales", but since I'm not sure and the setting is similar I will only count this as one dream for the competition. Walking along a beach with my brother. We are in Florida, or some place. We are also naked. There might be more than the two of us. There is something about the sand – I might be noticing how nice the sand feels on my feet or something. We come across a rock outcropping that we start to climb. Some other people are walking along the beach, and I hope to climb far enough up that they won’t notice that I’m naked. I get up to a high spot, but then get kind of nervous about being up so high and climb down a little. The dream transitions into a third person account of people on a climbing trip. They are climbing back down, but in order to do so properly they are supposed to trust their guide to lift them part of the way down. The rock outcropping seems more like a house at this point. Aunt J’s At Aunt J’s. My family is there. This might have been related to an earlier part in which I’m with the family in a hotel (for the sake of this account I’ll assume that it was). We are in this hotel place, at breakfast. The family is sitting around the table, and I go to get some food. There is also some coffee available, in carafes in a separate nook...At some point I decide to walk over to my cousin’s house. At about the same time as I walk in, she comes in another door. I think she might be a little disturbed to find me prowling around the house while she was gone, so I explain that I just walked in. After a bit of talking, I learn that her three dogs (which she doesn’t have in waking life) have gone missing. We aren’t too worried, it just seems like they went outside and haven’t come back yet. We go out and I think I call for the dogs. At this point, either her dogs come back or someone else’s dog comes running in. There is something about the dog seeming vicious, but me trying to get along with it. Then the dream changes into a couple of people including myself carrying heavy doors into a garage. Two of them carry a set of two doors, and I carry one by myself, playfully bragging about being able to do it on my own. I think one of the other two people is my brother, who makes some kind of retort. At Aunt J’s, I think. I go upstairs to use the bathroom. For some reason I’m there for longer than I want to be – I think people have come back from somewhere and I’m concerned about seeming to be in the bathroom so long (or something). Anyway, I go to get dressed and go downstairs. There is a bit of trouble standing up somehow, involving pulling myself up by a railing and getting urine on a towel or something. Then when I pull my pants up and start going downstairs I find that I had a large bag of loose-leaf tea in my pants that has ripped open. The tea leaves are spilling out and making a mess, further delaying me from going downstairs to see the people who have come along. At some point a girl I know is talking about coming back to the other place with us to spend the night. Not sure if this was the same dream or a different dream: At Aunt J’s? There is a device that someone (my grandfather?) is using to siphon water into a jar for me to take with me when I go somewhere. They fill the jar with water, and another jar (at least, another jar comes from somewhere). We put these into a plastic bag along with some other items, and now I have the challenge of carrying the bag without spilling the water. Restroom privacy issues Going to a public restroom. I’m in one stall, but people keep coming into the restroom and for some reason that bothers me so I decide to find a different stall. There is one a couple of stalls down. I walk into this one. It is fairly large. At first I notice a mannequin set up inside the door, which is positioned so that it’s staring at the toilet. I guess that’s OK. But then I notice that there is a security guard sitting next to the toilet, along with a kid (his son, I think). I don’t really want these people watching me while I use the toilet, so I give up. Fragment A chipmunk or a small squirrel in my kitchen.
I woke up around 3am and was up for about an hour, it was a natural awakening. Though I am sick and my sleep schedule is whacked up. I was up and about for a bit and intended to do a WBTB, as I've had success with that in the past. No dice. Some non-lucid dreams though. I had a false awakening which led into a dream of my dad and grandfather driving me to work with me in the backseat. I stop at work briefly and speak with my supervisor before getting back in the car. They tell me that they intended to take me to the hospital and not work and that they were just there such that I could tell my supervisor face to face. The dream went on for quite awhile, though it mostly consisted of fairly idle chatter and riding in the backseat of a car through uninteresting areas. Another brief awakening. Seperate dream. I was at the doctors office. It felt like the office that I would usually go to but the room was larger and seemed darker. The doctor told me that I was "147" but didn't reference what the number was (weight, blood pressure or some other medical score). She seemed irritated and disappointed with me and then left the room and I was left alone. I remember a feeling of deep depression hit me. I wasn't properly lucid, it was at best described as layer 0 lucidity, in that I was vaguely aware that something was off but didn't properly recognize the dream state. (I won't be counting it as lucid for the purposes of the competition) The unseen dream director or whatever you might call it was pushing for this particular emotion but I was aware that some 'external' force was pushing me to that emotion and I became frustrated and fought back against it. I became very angry to the point that I woke myself up. 2NLDs=2pts 1WBTB=2pts
Winter competition entry: Night: 08/12 Talking with Tipharot: Lucid - DILD I’m in a laundromat’s when suddenly Matt from the lucid dream YouTube channel “Tipharot” walks in and casually starts doing his laundry next to me. It’s a bizarre coincidence and I wonder if I should say hello. “So I’ve heard you’ve started lucid dreaming?” he says first, initiating a conversation as if he knows of me. “Yeah, who told you that?” I ask, wondering who are mutual friend is but he doesn’t tell me. “I’ve actually been doing this for over 2 years now” I say, explaining I’m not a beginner. Matt laughs as if that’s nothing in comparison to him and I can tell he still sees me as a beginner. Suddenly I realise I’m talking about lucid dreaming, one of my major dream signs! I start doing a finger palm reality check and Matt begins to do the same. The finger palm isn’t working and I know it doesn’t always so I get out my phone instead and look at the time. I look away and back and see the time has changed! I do the check again and once more it changes. “Surely not” I think, finding it hard to believe this is all a dream. I do the check a 3rd time and once more the time changes. Matt has finished his check and starts talking to me again but I ignore him and step away. “My results aren’t adding up” I tell him sternly, now believing I may actually be dreaming and he is trying to distract me. I do the check one last time and confirm. I look back at Matt with pity, now seeing the truth and that he is as an unaware dream character. “This is a dream” I tell him bluntly. His expression turns to one of confusion, then fear, as he realises the devastating truth that he’s just a figment of my imagination. Sadly the dream ends quickly here. Night: 01/12/ Fly to the tree: Lucid - DILD I’m on my childhood street. I can’t remember how I became lucid but I think I noticed the strangeness of my situation. I don’t remember my goal so I simply jump up and fly into the sky. My flight it successful but I feel heavy, like my dangling legs are dragging me down and I fly into the bare branches of a large tree and cling on. I look around and then have some fun swinging from the branches like a monkey until eventually I wake up.

Competition night #1 2022-12-02 [morning of] earliest: Key: + [f] = fragment + = dream [true] [false] memory notes, true or false [DS] = dream sign (?) = unsure about some detail [vivid, etc] = notes about dream quality CH = Childhood Home and surrounding neighborhood Bedtime ~ 00:00 2022-12-02 ~ 02:20 am + [f] Outdoors in a courtyard, daylight, some spare buildings around, there's a conversation about driving early: + [long, fairly vivid, weak awareness] Sniper game in CH [DS]. Team based gun/rifle combat game based around CH. There is a sniper set up in a tree in the neighboring home. I'm very carefully trying to circle around on the street outside to the right, I encounter several enemies. I return to the CH base and pick up a long sniper-style rifle from the armory and return back to the street, and shoot the enemies with my rifle. Head shots, body shots, several different enemies. The bullets move very slowly and I have to continue aiming with my rifle at the desired target spot on their bodies while the bullet is stil in flight. I continue to lie low and make a very large circle to the right. I end up moving through city urban areas and inside businesses, one is a restaurant with a lot of people who are all hostile to me and my team, I try to quickly exit through a back door which is locked. Outside at night I see a 2-3 story house with lots of angles on the roof, covered in snow, and I see my dog F walking around on the roof. I'm with wife L and there are some magazine/large booklets (thick) with objectionable material [DS]. I'm trying to move them/bury them so that they are not discovered. + I'm with my mom in her bedroom in CH sitting on the bed working with an automated computer reading / translation program, it's very convenient because it automatically highlights words which you don't know and displays them on the screen with the meaning. I comment to her how convenient this is, what a neat program. I'm continuing to try to hide the magazines from her, I'm shuffling them under other things to keep them hidden. I stand up and then return and see that the entire bed has been unmade with the blankets all piled up, I'm worried the magazines were discovered, I can't find them. I can't remember if I stuffed them in a drawer or not. Outside daylight, walking in the middle of the street with cars driving around me, I'm standing waiting at red lights, cars are passing me on my right. Pass a house where Mark Rippetoe from Starting Strength is holding a big BBQ in his garabge. Lots of people, huge industrial sized grills, and the steaks are huge and thick, each one about 2 square feet in size, there are about 20 of them packed closely together on the grills. There is a narrated comment "nobody justifies the contents of the magazines." [~ 6am, WBTB, short MILD and setting intent to get lucid in dreams] [looong BTS, takes lots of relaxation, throat lotus visualization] later: + At work at company B [true past company] [DS], I'm concerned that I'm not coming to work enough [DS], we're going to lunch, colleague AfMn is there but I don't want him to see me(?) we walk down the building's stairwell, and I see a heap of clothing at the bottom of the stairs, and I'm trying to determine if there is a person in there or not. It's very bulky like a fireman's uniform. Don't see a person/body in side. Outdoors I'm waiting by the car, and I see Stef.Pod. [company R] doing a forwards shuffling moon-walk nearby, then he becomes uni friend FrGrd as he approaches the car. I walk to my boat [false] which is moored in the city in a large open but covered space. The boat is completely open and I'm worried that random bums might sleep in it or mess with/ruin it. I look around a bit and do not see anybody. The back section has a roof and hatches that can be slid into a closed position, and I do this, sliding the hatches closed. final: + Inside with two girls. The question is which one of us one girl will be with. She goes outside. I decide to go after her and make a pass. I'm naked at "at attention" and I run outside with everything waving in the breeze. She looks at me and runs back inside [haha], she wants to be with the other girl. + [f] sitting around a table (with a flower arrangement on it?), the theme is that our jobs are protected [several more late dreams/frags, forgotten] final waking 10:12 am
First night of the winter comp :p () -> personal notes (like this) [DS] -> dream sign (stolen from FryingMan :p) Went to sleep at 10pm 1) Woke up at 12am due to a ton of noise outside, keeping me awake for the next 40-ish minutes = 1x dream, wbtb -> +3 2) Wbtb at 3 am or 4 am = 1x dream, 3x fragment -> +2.5 3) Wbtb at 5 am = 2x fragment -> +1 Night Total: +6.5 points Comp Total: 6.5 points 1) Dream: There's a new video game, it's about strategy and battle and I'm inside the selection screen [DS], like some kind of VR, I heard something about a special game mode related to Arcane (league of legends series) however the option is nowhere to be seen. Once inside a different game mode it's not a strategy game but more like an FPS, I can see the game engine floor map tiles? And they have arrows for speed and floating point number calculations, I decide to check whether moving diagonally would be faster than straight, which turns out not to be the case because the tiles are rotated 45 degrees and the arrows there are the biggest indicating slowest speed. (idk, dream logic lol, so I guess [DS], perhaps) 2) Dream: I'm at some Italian looking place, a single alley with lots of restaurants, very nice looking, I also stay at a hotel and I steal food there [DS], some bread slices and a slice of meat, I meet a mom of a friend of mine and his cat scratches me or at least tried, my friend arrives and notices some "naughty" Pokémon tab open on my phone [DS] but it turns out to be a Youtube video about funny "naughty" Pokémon sketches he recognizes. After that something follows about me at home playing the piano by holding a ton of belts (this was really crazy, very much [DS]), it worked and the music was pretty good but it was a crazy experience to do it with belts lol, like it had a very weird vibe and smoke came out of the piano. Fragment: My mom wrote a really popular piece of text about time travelling and other stuff I can't remember Fragment: I walk down the streets and there's a girl in front of me but there's clearly stuff wrong with her, it's like some kind of zombie, her face is horrific [DS] (with lots of details I'm going to try and forget for the rest of my life xd ((exaggeration))), anyways, as she's walking she's literally breaking apart in all kinds of ways, at some point her upper back kind of rips off and I look inside her, she's hollow... (Very much [DS] lol, if the first [DS] about it wasn't enough) after that I find more of those zombie like people and find some girls that wanna climb a skyscraper [DS] to be safe, we climb it and when on top it's a pretty nice view, though all the girls are now guys lol Fragment: A really short one about some kind of auto-chess game but with actual chess pieces. 3) Fragment: I'm making hard boiled eggs for my dad at the back of our yard, one is fine, the other I didn't even peel but it's only half an egg? Fragment: I'm at some sort of conference when someone high up starts shooting with a big cannon like weapon [DS], I recognize the person behind it.

Title says it all. Follow up dream of finding and rescuing a bunch of cats.
Okay I thought this was the first day of the winter comp so I wrote up all my nonlucids. I actually came down with a... well i sick. There is some kind of war going on an I have been drafted into the air force. I am flying in the rear seat of an A-10 warthog. (Which google says is a single-seat aircraft, though the dream made it very clear that it was this specific model of aircraft) as a gunner/ewar officer. We get shot by a missile though the pilot in front (a woman with curly red-orange hair and freckles) says we still have partial power to one engine and manages to land us on a long stretch of road rather than having us eject. We then land. This looks like the road that I use to drive home from work and we are facing in the same direction. There is some damage to some buildings like cracked windows or bullet holes and very few people and cars but despite the war theme of the dream things seem relatively normal. She wants to get back to base with our damaged aircraft even though it is many miles away, and we begin to taxi along the road as though we are a car. Though with our wingspan we take up the whole road and go own the middle. Eventually we come to some stuck traffic and our commander (who also wants to recover our aircraft) says we have permission to shoot the cars on the road to clear the way. Neither me nor the pilot have any issue with this so I begin shooting cars with our missiles. We only have four missiles and when we run out I start using the autocannon each time we come across cars blocking our aircraft. Eventually the landing gear breaks on a pothole and we are forced to get out. The commander concedes that we will not be able to get the aircraft back to base so me and the pilot decide to get out. There is what sort of looks submarine beached in the middle of a farm field. It is broken in half and laying in pieces with smoke and flames coming out. We contact our commander to ask him why there is a submarine in the middle of a farm field and he explains that it was actually an experimental stealth spaceship carrying nuclear ICBMs that fell out of orbit when the battle began. He says that we need to scuttle the wreckage using one of the nukes. I go get close to it and find the nuclear warhead laying on the ground. It looks like a black cone like the warhead of an ICBM but I notice it appears to be damaged and I start to feel sick. I try quickly to set it on a timer using a small control panel but the thing is completely broken, so I run away from it and hide behind a brick wall in a collapsed barn/warehouse. I tell the commander that there is only one nuke and it is leaking radiation and that I might get radiation sickness. He pauses for a moment and then says he will have a helicopter come and bomb the spaceship wreck along with destroy our plane and recover us, and that we need to fall back because there is a whole platoon of enemy ground troops advancing in our area of the battlefield. -+- I am visiting Erid (project hail mary). Though I am able to walk around on the planet with no space suit and no real problem, though everything is very dim and I carry with me a powerful ball shaped lantern that lets me see in all directions. I meet Adrian (Rocky's mate, who was mentioned in the book but never shown). They are an Eridian fighter/boxer of some sort. About 50% bigger than Rocky with a thick almost spherical body rather than a more flat one. Their arms are thick and have spikes near the joints and the 'fingers' have a narrow sort of "blade" growing out of the tip made out of a whiteish material. Despite this menacing appearance and presence Adrian is very friendly and excited to tell about their career as a fighter. -+- There was something to do with the master cheif from halo.
I dream that I have to go pee at work. I enter the restroom and see S. I start to pee in the trash right next to him. I realize what I am doing and just act like it was all a joke. S laughs nervously. I walk up to the urinals but instead of urinals it’s a low wall that opens up into a shooting gallery type space. Its very similar to the Texas Ren Fest we visited for Thanksgiving break this year in waking life. Instead of targets there are guys running around getting “shot at”. I have to pee so bad I don’t care. I figure if that’s what they want to do so what. My urine stream is very much not like normal. It sort of just forms a wide high powered spray instead of stream. I feel like I am peeing a long time with no relief. At some point the guys in there start shooting back. Now I am very mad. Some of it hit my shirt and got my hair. I go to the sink and start trying to wash off. I am so mad I want to beat that guy that peed on me. L from management and some other guy walk in asking what is going on. I say, “that idiot peed on me.” I really should knock him out. Then it clicks. I am dreaming. I can do whatever I want. I can’t get fired for it. I immediately go tackle the guy that peed on me and start beating his face with my fist until there is a lot of blood. I notice how dull and unreal it feels to hit him but I am satisfied. I get up and start to leave but I wake up at that moment and have to pee very badly. I felt thankful that I didn’t wet the bed.
I was in my old neighborhood at night coming up the hill I used to run. It is warm as though it is late spring or early autumn and the last of twilight is just fading away. I become fully lucid and begin to fly. It doesn't seem to be my usual flying but rather a slow sort of swimming through the air that never gets me more than a few meters off the ground. I tell myself that there will be a means or indication to stabilize the dream. I see a tree with dreamcatchers hanging from the branches. I take one off and loop it around my neck which increases the clarity. I then land, deciding that I want to convert the dream to daytime. I set down, no longer flying. I then reach up for the sky. I really start to question my method of dream control here, recalling something from the robert waggoner book about thinking of the dream as a mental space rather than a physical space. But I still want to use a physical method of dream control. I begin pawing vaguely at the night sky, rotating the moon and stars along with it. I rotate the entire planet 360 degrees with a few pawing motions until the moon rises and is roughly in the same spot. No sun. I then remember that I should probably rotate the earth east-west. I try rotating to the west one or two swipes and the sun appears, though it is in the northern sky, roughly where polaris would be. Neil deGrasse Tyson appears and says "Damn it we almost had the three-body problem solved and you hippies had to come and screw it up!"
