redisreddish's mess of dreams is still messy

Just a frag, and then a short but fun dream.

~Standing in the back yard, and a strong wind starts blowing. I look up and there's a tornado in the distance, but it's dark blue and there are rainbow flames shooting out of it. Someone had to yell at me to run because I just stood and stared at it.

~I'm a mermaid, swimming through some body of water surrounded by a bunch of houses. Out of nowhere, a flamingo starts chasing me, and I have to get away from it, because flamingos eat mermaids... obviously. I eventually swim around a post thingy enough times so that the flamingo gets dizzy and goes away. I keep swimming and find a merman with a shiny golden tail, and white hair with gold streaks in it. He teaches me different ways to swim. I leave after a while and go into a house that's half underwater. Some little girl (or something else disguised as a little girl... ) then starts trying to catch me. I swim all around the half of the house that's underwater--through doorways, around furniture, all over the place--until the little girl suddenly clutches her throat and swims frantically away, apparently realizing she can't breathe underwater. I notice that my scales are shining dark blue.

Been back from camp for a few days now, just didn't have time to type out the dreams. Well, my recall was crap for numerous reasons, but I actually had a lucid while I was there! Of that, I remember walking around in some building with murals all over the top half of the walls, and sculpture-type things of animals on the bottom halves. I think I was lucid from the beginning, and I know I tried to fly and wasn't succesful. (Big surprise. ) Then I had some horrible nightmare about someone hacking Molly into pieces with an axe. Can't remember any other dreams I had at camp, but in the last few days there's been some frags I can remember... something about a house in a forest, and Medusa.

Two frags before the one dream I really remember.
~Some singer was making a music video outside my house. We had to drive her somewhere, and she gave me her autograph.
~There was a crocodile at my house. A friend of mine was there, and we were supposed to be taking care of it. It kept biting me. It felt like a puppy bite. "Sam, take this crocodile," I said. "Hold on, I just--" "SAM, THIS CROCODILE IS EATING MY ARM."

Then the one I can actually remember.

~I'm in my room at my grandma's house. There are people walking around. Some guy wants to fence me. I take out a fencing sword thing... I don't know what they're called. Anyways, we fence, I beat him, we fence again, I beat him again, and he gets really ticked off. Some guy dressed like a prince comes in and pushes him away before he punches me. The prince guy was dressed like Prince Edward from Enchanted, only his clothes were light purple.

I go downstairs, and there are people walking around down there, too. A guy is strangling someone, and he looks at me when I go by. I run back upstairs. The fencing guy is waiting for me. He jumps at me with his hands out like he's going to grab my neck, but just slams me against the wall with one hand and starts stabbing me with the fencing sword with the other hand. The prince guy pulls him away again. A girl with a sewing needle and thread rushes up and says, "If we don't get that closed up soon, there's a good chance that (???) will (???) (???) and you'll die."

She starts stictching my neck with the needle and thread. She shoves the needle in and yanks it out, not trying in the least to be gentle. I scream a little the first time she does it, because it hurts. She gives me a few more stitches, and it hurts less and less each time.

I go back downstairs and outside, and there are quite a few people around. They all hate fencing guy. He comes up behind me and slams me in the head with his fist, then sics a dog on me. It bites my leg, but that doesn't hurt. Fencing guy tries to beat up some little kids, but their parents get him to go away, and I just sit with a group of people for a while.

Tomorrow, I'm going to camp for a week, so I'll probably have some interesting dreams when I come back... I just hope I don't yell in my sleep and wake everyone in my cabin up like last year.

Hm... had lots of dreams in the last two weeks or so. I'll just post notes of what I remember.

~Big skeletal demon monster things chasing my friends and I through a library, and then down a road.
~People around, and one guy turned into a purple... I don't know; it had wings. Then some evil person was trying to kill him, but they couldn't.

~I'm a vampire, walking through an unfamiliar house. There's one or two other people there with me. The house was either very dirty or tinted green, or both.
~In a classroom with some teacher who thinks my name is Alice. A group of guys bust in out of nowhere and the teacher goes, "Oh, are you finally going to give her an igloo?" The guys hand me a little one on a string with a TV inside it.
~I'm a vampire, in a big field shaped like a bowl. There are animals all around me. I run superfast out into a town and find a nice car, which I then proceed to crash into things because the brakes aren't working. I find a group of people after a while and say, "Does this car belong to any of you?" A guy stands up, looks at the wrecked vehicle, and goes, "YES!!!!!" Later I go back to the field, and there's a huge tornado that I barely get away from. It sucks up the car, though. The tornado was upside-down looking, almost exactly like this picture, only the sky was darker.

~A false awakening: I "woke up" listening to my MP3 player, which was playing commercials. I thought nothing of it and I can't remember the rest of the dream.
~~~~
Bah, there are so many others, and now that I'm trying to type them I can't remember them.

More odd dreams.

~Harry, Ron, and Hermione from Harry Potter were trying to find the sorcerer's stone. Hermione took out a huge book and started reading something out of it. It was a warning about how you had to be careful not to be turned to stone when trying to get the sorcerer's stone. They left the book and then were in a big stone hallway, opening a door. There was nothing inside the room the door opened into except a pedastal in the center with the stone on it. They just walked into the room, but a guy came up to the doorway and was all astounded that they hadn't died. He took one step into the room and turned to stone.

Then, Harry, Ron, and Hermione went back out of the room and got into a roller coaster car that was suddenly there. Hagrid was in it, too. The car took off up a bunch of hills and around turns, and out into a forest. Then the car dumped them into my yard.

Now the dream was from my point of view. Some awards ceremony was going on. It didn't last very long, though, and as everyone left some guy took my dad's truck. My dog Molly started running around, and for some reason I found that absolutlely hilarious, because I was laughing so hard I couldn't breathe.

~This dream is all scattered and weird, and I can't remember all of it. I'll just list the parts I can remember, instead of trying to connect them all together.
~~My friend showing me a bunch of letters he had written to some place to get money.
~~Me almost missing the bus at school, and when I got on it was totally different than a normal school bus. It was yellow, but that's the only thing that was the same. It had big tinted windows, a really high ceiling, and it looked more like something a spy would drive than a school bus.
~~Running across a yard with two other people, and we all have big metal ladders. It's storming. I look up and see a single cloud moving all over the place, and I know it's about to shoot out lightning. Me and the person closest to me drop our ladders, but the other person keeps going and almost gets struck by lightning.
~~Everything is all apocalyptic. The wind is really strong, trees are all burning, the sky is swirling gray and black, it's thundering. People are running everywhere.

~~~
There's something else I can almost remember, but can't quite get it.

Dreams from last night and the night before. One of them was a nightmare.

~One dream consisted entirely of a guy chasing me with a dagger. By the time I woke up from it, he had stabbed me in the stomach, slashed my face, and deeply cut my arm. It scared the crap out of me.

~I fell asleep again after that one and ended up in Wal-Mart. I walked around by the checkout things for a while, and then just started hopping around. I noticed I stayed suspended in the air for a few seconds before I fell. But the minute I thought, "Hey, that's kind of cool...", it stopped happening. I jumped up as high as I could, but just fell right back down.

I just kept walking around. I started thinking of the murderer from the last dream, but in the dream I was thinking that that had actually happened, not that I had dreamed it. I guess I looked kind of freaked out or something, because a guy walked up to me and asked if I was okay. I know he wasn't TG or Tiger, but it doesn't seem like he was a DC. He asked if I needed a hug. I told him yes. He gave me a big hug, and afterwards I think I went out to the parking lot.

~I was in a hallway at school. A guy suddenly came running towards me with a group of people behind him. He told me to join them as he pushed a brick in the wall. It went back and a door slid open. We all went through the doorway and came out in a secret room. The group sat in a circle while the guy closed the door. He said something about some kind of spell, and told someone to cast it. Everyone looked at everyone else.

"Do you know how to do it?" someone asked me.

"No, I don't think so."

"I do." A girl said something I forget, and a symbol glowed red on her foot. A dog ran into the room and the guy was about to tell everyone something when I woke up.

~I have no idea where I was in this one. I was a dog, though, a german shepard rottweiler mix like my grandma's. There were two or three other dogs that looked like me. We were trying to solve a riddle to get some little figurine-type things. We went all around the place we were at. There was a wooden floor that was apparently on stilts or something, because in places it would just collapse under us and we would have to try to get back up. There were other groups of dogs, too. They all looked like us, but some were old, some were crazy and rabid, and other things. I think I woke up after falling into the floor for the upteenth time.

~Then just a frag: I was watching the new "The Last Airbender" movie. It hasn't come out yet, so I wish I could've remembered some of the words to compare when I see the real movie.

Dreams from yesterday night and last night:

~I was a white tiger. It felt so cool, I just walked around and laughed when people went "OOOOOHHHHH A TIGER HOW PRETTY!".

~Okay, this one's kind of odd. There was a woman who went into a room and waited for a few seconds. A man suddenly appeared. He was dressed in all these sparkling, royal-looking clothes. He seemed like a regular human, but I think in the dream he was some sort of god. The woman ran up and hugged him. He kissed her.

"You're finally back. I've been waiting for you," the woman said.

"And now you must wait no longer." The man took her hand, and she led him upstairs to another room. She saw a bug on the wall and jumped a little. "Oh, I hate those things," she said.

"What?" The man let go of her hand. "Hate? You do not hate! You only love!" The woman was instantly scared, and said, "No, you have to understand. My time as a human has changed me, and--"

"No! The woman I love does not HATE!" The man pulled out a knife and chucked it at her. She ducked and it stuck in the wall. He threw two more, but neither hit, and then he ran out of the room. The woman chased after him. She caught him outside the house they had been in, and grabbed his arm. He turned away.

"Just listen, please," the woman said. "I do love everything. I just hate what some things do." Apparently that was good enough for the guy, because he picked her up and kissed her. (Jeez, dramatic much. )

~There's a giant hole in my backyard. That's actually a fact; I'm not talking about a dream right now. But in the dream, I was walking around that hole and a bunch of cartoony zombies started climbing out. I had an axe for some reason, and I began hacking their oddly shaped heads in half. After I killed them all, I looked and saw that they had had whole brains in them.

"Oh man, they must have been growing brains in there," I said to myself. I walked around to the side of the house, where there was a hole in the wall covered with a concrete door. There was a patch of hay above it. When I kicked that, a big spider that looked like it was made of hay came out. I squashed it, and another one came. I squashed that one, and four big non-hay spiders came out. They were cartoony, like the zombies, but they had big pinchers and moved fast.

"What do you think you're doing? This is the lair of It," one of them said.

"Well, maybe I want to kill It," I told them.

"We would let you, but he's really being an idiot today. So... we have to attack you." All the spiders jumped off the wall and started attacking people who were suddenly walking around. As that dream ended, I heard one spider who was latched on to a guy's neck saying, "You only have one neck vein?"

~Last one: I was walking around my house, and the Mad Hatter was there. We walked upstairs, where there was just a little spot of floor, and then a door to the left and a door to the right. One was green and one was orange, but they both had a lot of writing on them. The Hatter suddenly went off talking like he was in a trance, and I saw a flashback. I forget what it was. When he stopped talking, I said, "I would open one of these doors, but I'm afraid I'll get something thrown at me."

"Let's open this one, then," he said, and opened the door to the left. Sure enough, a teacup came flying out. We stepped in, and the March Hare was there. There was also another guy who looked like he could've been related to the Hatter. He got mad at me for being to loud, and I said something back that ticked him off. I can't remember what it was.

So, dreams from the past 3 or so days.
~~~~
~I'm some kind of underground tunnel with a group of people. It's part of a big maze-like thing. One person keeps saying we should go a certain way, and another person keeps arguing with them.

~Me and my friend are bowling in the middle of a road.

~I'm in what looks like a big arcade, with people's names all over the sides of the games. One of them is supposed to have my name on it, but it says "Yaylor" instead of "Taylor." Tiger was there, and he dragged me over to one of those dancing games where you have to step on the arrows. That was actually kind of fun.

~Walking through a big store with a little girl and her mom. Someone from my school comes up and starts talking about Norwegian babies.

~I'm in a church, and there are mimes walking around giving cheesecake to people. I go back into a kitchen and try to sneak a slice. I get some, almost drop it, and run out. Then there was a white fox and a black wolf following me. The fox tried to eat my cheesecake.

So, this was kind of like a Romeo and Juliet thing, but the guy and the girl were driving around in a truck with a vegetable cooker built into the dashboard. After a while the guy stopped the truck and got out, and another girl came over to talk to the Juliet chick. Apparently Juliet wasn't supposed to be seeing the guy, because she accidently called him "my love" and the other girl started freaking out and saying she was going to tell. Juliet wanted to stop the girl, but she couldn't leave the car because she had to keep stirring the vegetables.

"Why aren't you coming? It doesn't matter if the vegetables burn," the girl said. Juliet got kind of panicky and said, "Vegetables don't burn, they SIMMER!"

Then there was something where Alice Cullen was talking to me. The entire time, my thoughts basically went like this: "She's talking to me, I should be paying attention... You're supposed to make eye contact when you're listening... Those are some cool sunglasses! ...Wait! I'm supposed to be paying attention..."

Um, I had this dream a couple weeks ago. It was actually a shared dream with one of my friends.
~~~~
I was in a classroom. A girl from school was walking around, telling people what to do. She came up to me and told me to do something, but I refused to.

“Um, you have to do what I say,” she said prissily, with her hand on her hip.

“No I don’t, because this is a dream,” I told her. She gave me a look like I was completely stupid, rolled her eyes, and walked away. It took me a few seconds for what I had just said to sink in. “Whoa! Holy crap! I’m dreaming!” I pinched my arm just to make sure, then pinched my nose shut and breathed in. Positive that it was a dream, I stood up on one of the desks and told everyone that it was a dream and I was leaving.

I tried to make a portal. I visualized one in front of me, swirling blue and black, and a faint image of it appeared. I concentrated on it as hard as I could, and it darkened and became a real portal. I was really surprised that that worked, since I can never manage to do much in my dreams.

“Ha!” I cried, and stepped through it. I came out into a large-ish room with a wooden floor and wooden walls. There was a hot tub in an alcove type thing in the back. Another girl from school was there, and she didn’t even look phased by my sudden appearance. She just looked at me, looked at the hot tub, and said, “I’ll beat you there!”

She was closer to it than me, so she just laughed and jumped in. I figured I’d amaze her with my dream powers (if I could get them to work), so I tried to manifest another hot tub. The same thing happened as with the portal: a faint image that darkened and became real. She just laughed again and told me that that was cool. I decided I might as well leave. I made another portal and stepped through it.

I came out in the school cafeteria. It was a lot bigger than normal, though. I tried to think of something that I could do. I looked around for my friends. Not difficult, seeming as that’s only about six people. I found them and told them that I was going to take them through a portal to somehwere. They all agreed that it was a good idea.

“Everyone stay here for a minute,” I said. I kind of made a portal, but the guys started stepping off to the side, and I had to get them back together. I couldn’t concentrate on them and the portal at the same time, so the portal vanished. “Way to go!” I said, annoyed. I made another one and shoved everyone through it before they could walk away. We came out in the band room. Ms. R (band teacher) was there, doing something on her computer and conducting to herself. She didn’t even notice us come in. I led everyone out into the hallway, which looked just like the hallway in our regular school, except the clocks on the walls looked much nicer. I went across the hallway and looked at a small sign that was next to a door. It had the name of a teacher on it. It was a crazy name; long, with a bunch of A’s and I’s and a K or two.

“Ahaha, this is hilarious!” I said. “I need to try to remember this.” I didn’t, obviously. I turned back to the group, a little disappointed, because everything looked the same as normal school. But we all walked down the hallway, and stepped into a beautiful room. The floors were marble, milky white and polished, and in the center of the room there were several pillars supporting a domed roof. The bottoms and tops of the pillars had detailed carvings on them, and it reminded me of Rome. We walked down another hallway. The right wall had a part that was set back a bit, and there were statues of horses; in the middle, two facing each other and rearing up, and on either side, two smaller ones just standing. There were also those… topiaries? Yeah, I think that’s the word for those bush things that are sculpted to look like stuff. There were topiaries in spiral shapes on the edges. A stone fountain was between the two horses in the center.

We continued down that hallway, which came out to the pool. The floor was black marble swirled with white, polished like in the first room. The room was kind of steamy. The pool was rimmed with gold. The pool had one main part, a long rectangle in the center of the room. A smaller section came off either side, and each of those branched off in both directions and met to make a larger rectangle around the main pool. There was a platform in the center of the main pool with a fountain on it; it had four dragons with water pouring out of their mouths. Small arches went over some parts of the smaller, outside rectangle. I went swimming for a while, and I think that’s where the dream ended.

When I told my friends about this dream, one of them said he had dreamed that he was in a castle with a group of people. When he described the inside, it was almost exactly like wherever I had been was.
