Running down a dark city, being pursued by a startling number of zombies. Several of them succeed in grabbing me, but I am able to pull myaelf free. They eventually disperse. I move through the mostly abandoned city and come across some regular, albeit ugly looking people. Lucidity hits me as the dream is ending and, because I saw a similarity between them,I am able to make one of the peole lose his face and become slenderman.

Was shopping with family. A hairy creature was milling about, but we paid it no mind. Mom fell over. I went to help her up, but she screamed at me to go away, so, I did so. Heading back home I noticed the cats had somehow gotten into the medicine cabinet and had eaten some purple drugs. Fortunately, they had the sense to vomit them back up. My uncle came home and decided to deal with the mess.

Different scene. I was watching a youtube video where the writers of all the star wars films had gotten together to explain which parts of their film were filled with plot holes. When the video started, however, it turned out to be an amateur youtuber explaining what liberties the lego games had taken with the source material.

Need to get back into the habit of recalling because this is a poor showing for what is by far my best lucid ever.

It consists of multiple adventures held in different worlds with a hub world that resembles a gradually being torn down apartment complex.

First adventure: On a bus with a pretty girl in a somewhat normal city. Billboerds stand out to me for some reason. We made love and I used dream control to create and control fire for a bit. We had sex at some point in the journey. Ended by arriving in the hub world.

In the hub world I fulfilled a long time goal of meeting my shadow self. I dont remember too much of the encounter but he waved at me, a tiny bit cautiously and I think we ultimately had a friendly meeting.

Second adventure: With a collection of people. It became obvious that they were all clones of each other from about three base designs, especially when I saw a couple seated at a table look identical to another couple at the opposite table. One of these designs had two faces with one at the back like Quirrel, the other was unremarkable and the final one had a ridiculous number of jagged teeth. The last of these not only gradually overtook the rest of the designs like a virus but began infecting other body parts like her chest and hands and eventually even inanimate objects. I used dream control to tear open a portal in a wall that resmbles those cracks in time in doctor who and used to escape into a cupboard in the hub world.

Third adventure: With the pretty girl again. Gave her a hug that lasted for the entirety of our second journey. She acted annoyed by my deliberate clinginess. During this journey I tried to test out perception and persistence by looking away at objects and seeing if I could still hear them and if they looked the same when I turned back to them. For the most part I could and they did.

Fourth adventure: Wanted to go the the Zombiu world again. Only partially succeeded, given I was on the run from clowns, but at least it was raining. Opened up a portal to leave and wound up in the same cupboard as before.

Decided that it was time to leave this world and wake up. Rather than simply will myself to wake up, I left the now dilappidated apartment (which was filled with various characters, some of whom I had met on my adventures) with the intention of waliking out of the world and waking up that way. After a mostly forgotten journey (I may have simply "snapped" to the next scene), I came to a collection of beautiful waterfalls which I new marked the boundary of the world. Rather than walk off. I noticed an outpostt nearby that I made my way to. Inside, for some reason, I began fiddling with a ventillator fan only to break it. Unable to fix it traditionally, I used dc to reverse time for the components successfully fixing (if you call transforming them into an inflatable pile of lego that my dream self thinks is a good enough job fixing) all but one: the fan cover. Instead, I used dc to instantly knit a sort of mini tigger onesie that I put over the fan. Afterwards, I continued on my journey but snapped back to waking mid way through.

And several more adventurres that have sadly been forgotten.

This serves as quite a few milestones for me. 1. I was persistently lucid throughout the whole thing in that I always had an awareness that I was in a dreaming world. I even caught myself losing lucidity at one point and willed myself to get back to peak lucidity. 2. I possessed all mental faculties and "felt" as intelligent as normal during the whole thing. 3. After a single false start with the fire thing, my dream control was exceptional. There was not a thing I could not do 4. Even though it was only one dream, the apartment hub felt like a persistent realm with a chronology to its existence and its changes. 5. First time I had sex in a dream without immediately waking up. 6. Longest lasting lucid dream, being a few hours real time and roughly a day in my mind. 7. I've had a dry spell for quite a while, so, ending it with something this good feels absolutely wonderful.

All in all by far my best lucid dream yet.

Despite having a perfectly good job already, I decide to get a job in Ripon. What my role is is anyones's guess, since I seem to do no work. I spend three days in this dream, each day going to work. Certain landmarks were familiar to me, but the rest of the city seemed to have been made up. A collection of beautiful women also worked at this place. Each day consisted of us doing an obnoxious team building exercise. At the end of the dream, whilst walking to Harrogate, I notice that my new job is incredibly vague and that it feels more dreamy and unreal than my old job did. This almost got me lucid, but my alarm clock got in the way.

Living in my Gran's house with a bunch of other people. A couple of buses pull up and everyone is immediately filled with a sense of dread. We are instructed to get on the buses and although we consider running, we eventually do so. Sitting next to a friend from work we head off through the countryside to who knows where. A newsreel style montage occurs explaining that Russia has returned to the height of cold war paranoia and that inexplicably Britain has followed suit. One of our number committed a crime and now the entire group is being taken. The final item on the mintage suggests that a resistance ia being built over in Russia.

Fragment: Working in a supermarket. Friends from my real life work are also there.

1. Dealing with a trio of witches. One was friendly I believe and helped us.

2. Exploring the countryside with a friend from work. We come across an apparently irradiated piece of land due to a nuke. Despite the advice of my friend, I decide to explore this area and discover a factory where they are using child labour. A man who is working there seems to recognise, despite me not knowing who he is and beckons me over. Unnerved by him, I run out and am imformed by my friend that he is some creature that messes with your memory so that you eventually remember him and then consumes you when he succeeds.

1: In a city that resembles a fusion of Harrogate and Ripon. I know it is near Hull. With my uni friends. We are discussing disatisfaction with our course. The streets have shops that are each based on a single animated Disney film. An odd scene where I pull my own left nipple off. No pain or any reaction at all, really. I think at some point I was trying to avoid someone.

2: Nana's house. Looking through old ps1 games. Instead of regular discs, each game is saved on a small, black circle that resemble fridge magnets. I recall an animaniacs, a Donald Duck and a sonic game. Myuncle is there and some of the games are his. I drop one of the "discs" but after a bit of fumbling I recover it. We play Sonic, but the game appears to be a sevely altered version of Sonic heroes that changes into a more accurate version of sonic Genearations. I notice this, but dont become lucid.

3: At my house. Night time. Old primary school teacher knocks on the door and passes a letter through informing us she wants to help. My mom insults the letter for being messy and expresses ridicule at how she ever became a teacher.

4: Still night. I'm making my way through our neighborhood, occasionally taking to the roofs, looking for someone. Quite vivid.

5: In the fusion city. Been barred from a shop. Go wandering. See my boss in a barbers getting a haircut. H eorders a drink from the barbers in a loud voice I can hear from across the street. I walk on. A vivid scene of standing at the top of an escalator with a pretty girl. She doesn't seem happy with me. After travelling for an hour dream time, I realise that I am so far away that even if I start back now, I can't get back to work on time. I then realise that I don't care and keep moving.


All in all, an odd collection. More bleak and depressing than my usual dreams are.

Single Fragment: The channels I usually fill at work have been massively extended to resemble urinals. I notice nothing unusual about this. Single image of a colleage standing in front of it with his arms outstretched.

Unlike most dreams where I type them here primarily for my own benefit, when I woke up I had a strong compulsion to inform others about this place. I have no idea why, but its hereanyways, so, take from it (if anything) what you will.

I'm part of an archeological team investigating a large circular marking in the middle of the floor in what might have been an old church. I touch the circle and I'm transported to a large room (which I understand to be an entirely different realm called provedence, located underneath the disc which comprises this particular dreamworld.) where a disc- like object that has the world map etched on it is rotating. I touch the disc where I believe North America is and I'm suddenly transported to the skies above where I touched it. Water is gushing down from the sky and I understand that this is the source of all waterfalls in the world. They all begin with the sky. Thanks to a parachute (which I apparently just had on me) I make it back to earth safely.

Some time passes and now knowledge of provedence is common. People from all over the world visit. Turns out that hthe map isn't all there is in there. All of mankind possesses a "destiny force" (I'm stealing from Marvel) that allows them to influence the universe, even down to the physical laws and provedence enhances these abilities. Because of this Earth has become a utopis, as everyone uses provedence to fulfill there own desires . War etc. is simply not needed. When not in use provedence is gauarded by two men who I understand to be trustworthy.

More time passes and I experience a false awakening. When I "get up", I see that my sister is in my room sleeping under a folded up cardboard box. I wke her and explain to her about provedence (why I hadn't done so behorehand is anyone's guess). We go there, but a friend of hers (who may be imaginary, yet simultaneously real, however that works.) informs her that he cannot go there. Only humans can. He seems genuinly scared of the place. This next scene could have happened whenever, but I think here is the likliest place for it. I'm in provedence, which is now a white void, yet it still possessees a serene quality. With me are a group of people who I think are naked (no idea if I am) and together we use the power in provednce to make ourselves more and more serene and calm and peaceful. We reach a maximum level and then through sheer willpower we surpass that too. It honestly felt beautiful and I'd be glad to revisit this place again just for that.

More time passes. The world is now unpleasent in some non-specific way. It is understood that provedence has something to do with God. An old man now controls provedence and is using it to make the world unpleasent. A group of people (all of whom may have been the same type of psuedoimaginary people from earlier) are backing away from the entrence to provedence (now on the ceiing) in pain or discomfort. And so it ends.

A Harry Potter themed dream where most of the gang had been locked up and thrown into a pit. Whoever had done so had employed Mad-Eye Moody as a guard. A pidgeon flew down into the pit and the gang started playing with it. This really set off Moddy for some reason and he began ordering the prisoners not to play with it, until he determined it was safe. Whilst he was distracted, some of the heroes who weren't locked up attacked him, knocking him unconscious. Just before he went, he muttered something about foreshadowing. Even in the dream, I found that a bit strange (I'm an observer, in this one.) The crew clamboured out of the pit and started running down a hallway, where thay, for some reason, turned into the main characters from Futurama. Also with them was another decapodian who didn't seem to like Zoidberg all that much (but then who does?). When they reached the end, Leela made mention of a narrator who had apparently just died. Never heard him actually narate.

A brief snippet of me in alleyway with the sixth doctor at one end and one of the other incarnations at the other. There was also a long narrative involving the twelth doctor and Clara, but I can't rember anything about that other than it happened and it may have also bought a few of my old friends from high school.

Elderly couple own a castle, which they market as a resort of some kind. Have a general unpleasent air and look downright decrepid. They die and wind up in a void, filled with floating bits of land, as well as an upside down 1920s style car with a street light hanging from the bottom of it. They navigate this tiny unfinished world and discover at the end their graves. Come to a realisation that this is their final resting place , but it was discarded by the creator. Due to this, if they can "survive" (no idea what from, an infinite drop, maybe?), they wil eventually "drift" back into their mortal bodies.

Before they do, a voice from the void describes their adoption of a little girl as a "sham". My dream self (sometimes an observer, sometimes the oldman) considers to be a euphamism for a far worse fate they had in store for the girl. No specifics are given but it implies abuse cruelty. They eventually return to the normal world, only to almost immediately go back to the grave world, which now has a different layout of its mini landmasses. They begin the brief journey again.

Very chilling and eerie dream. The old couple resemble a realistic depiction of Victor's parents from Corpse Bride with a few more years on them.

Successful WILD. Lucidly transitioned into a city with loads of skyscrapers. Flew up the walls of one of them and found an alcove where a window would ordinarily be. This alcove contained a door that led into the building. Going through it I found a maze of lifts and escalaters. Navigating through it, I heard snippets of conversation from others in the building. Can't remember the details, but it felt as though they were about business. One of the corridors was darker than the rest and stood out in my memories. I eventually arrived at a medium sized room where a bunch of people from my university course were gathered. This was apparently (I just instinctively knew) a teaching conference of sorts, which makes sense as I'm learning to be a teacher. During this period, I noticed fuzziness in the dream and willed for clarity, which I received. One of the ladies present, who was not from real life, was named Auldrick (again, I just "knew"). Its not exacltly a feminine name, but she was beautiful and, to put it bluntly, we had sex.

Next dream, non-lucid: I was travelling with a taxi driver and someone who I suspect may have been Donald Trump (this dreams a bit hazy, so, I don't know). We had both entered this cab, when some sort of vague apocalyptic event occured. Instead of taking me to my destination (wherever that was) he instead decided we were off somewhere else that would apparently help with survival. During our journey through an abandoned England (again, what Trump was doing here is anyone's guess), I, in all my dream logic, decided that using a text interface, similar to irc chat, to communicate with them was far better than speaking face-to-face. Our driver got frustrated at me for this. We got into an argument over our destination, which he eventually won. At one point hee drove straight a house. He also drove us down a steep hill at high speed, causing us to briefly fly off. When we landed, the shock woke me up. There may have also been a scene involving me ona a bus.

I found myself in my old primary school, although the corridors were far grander in size and decoration than the real version. What happened at the beginning in the dream, I am not sure. I was working on fixing a tv for three of my teachers (who were all gathered in one room for some reason). The Tv only needed to be plugged in. Whilst moving to perform this task, lucidity hit me and, as a test of my dream control I decided to turn on the TV without plugging it in, by willing the current from the socket into the Tv. This worked and, satisfied, I left the teachers to watch what I believe was news.

Walking down the corridors, I came across two beautiful women in long, flowing, blue dresses who were apparently shooting an advert, despite the lack of cameras. Entranced by their beauty, I verbally beckoned one of them over and we both came the simultaneous realisation that we should have sex. This we did, but I woke up midway through.

Did WILD, emerged in bedroom. Decided trying to disingtergrate my duvet was a good reality check. It became a bunch of black particles that floated away in a nonexistant wind. Felt my sheet for a bit to boost clarity, went into front room. Uncle was not sleeping on the futon, as was usual, but was on the sofa instead. Rather, his feet were on the arm of the sofa with the rest of his body lying straight off the edge, but supported by nothing. Contemplated having a moon rock, decided cheesecake was a better idea. Went into kitchen and opened fridge, but, true to real life, there was no cheesecake to be found.

Tried to create a slice through dream control, failed. Noticed a partially drunk bottle of coke. Decided to finish it. Tasted like coke, but felt "distant" and, therefore, disappointing. Went outside debating what else to do, woke up.

Fragment from subsequent failed WILD attempt, may have had slight awareness: Engineering area (I just knew it was) that resembled a server room. Was with uncle. Two "engineers" left. The monitor attached to the servers was oddly designed, being circular and growing. I identified it as a "protostargate" based on the interesting symbols rotating within the monitot. Woke up.

Dreamt I was in a Crash Bandicoot level. There was a bowl with a hole in the bottom and a powerful suction. Tried to escape the bowl and nearly succeeded, but a large, shadowy creature emerged from the bowl and dragged me down. I heard a child cry out in despair as I fell down and woke up.

For whatever reason I researched Gulliver's travels on my laptop (despite it being dead. I eventually realised it was a false awakening) and found a screenshot from what was allegedly a 1920s colour adaptation displaying a mayan city. Was transported there, can't remember what I did.

Woke up again (for real, this time), did WILD. Appeared in bedroom, enlarged a hole int the wall (that isn't there in reality) and walked through. Returned to Mayan city which gradually (and unnoticed by me until after) became a more modern city. After a brief bit of fighting with my base desires, I summonned a black hole behind me, turned around and walked through. Arrived at my old college building, where someone I identified as the Godfather (from the films, apparently, although he wasn't remotely similar) greeted me.

Can't remember much else apart from a bus chase and another false awakening, where I did most of my dream recall. As I attempted to WILD within the dream, I heard a mumbling conversation and woke up for real.
