SuperOhm

Fragment:
I dreamed that I was working at a copy shop (I currently work at a copy shop, but this one was different). I was the only one there, and I was trying to help one customer, but I wasn't familiar with the machines and I couldn't find the right printer from the drop down list. As I struggled with this, the line built up until the whole store was full. I then realized that I was dreaming, and as someone started to complain I made an announcement to the entire store "This message is to inform all our customers, that this is just a dream in my head. None of this is real, none of you need copies, and I'm done." They all started to yell and scream at me for how irresponsible I was being, so I made a mental association to link the concept of fire with the concept of paper before snapping my fingers. All of their hard copies instantly erupted in flames. During the confusion, I walked out, but then woke up. It was after going back to sleep that I had the next dream.

Saving Captain Jack:
I forget how it started, but Captain Jack Harkness (the lead character from the show Torchwood) had been kidnapped and was being dissected. Of course, because he couldn't die, this was a pretty awful thing to do. I was trying to save him. Seemed like there were also aliens who fed on human misery. At first they thought that completely and utterly blocking me out from saving him would provide the most misery. I told them that misery is actually strongest when there's hope, and that they should offer to allow me to see him, but also take that away, as it would provide a better "meal" for them. Both sides understood that we were trying to game the other.

They took me into a big elevator, which turned out to work kind of like a wonkavator, going all over the place. Apparently, it was voice activated. It didn't take long before I realized we weren't going anywhere near where we should be. On the elevator, I ran into a man in a wheelchair. He said he would help me. But for some reason, I didn't trust him. I told him that I needed a handshake before I could know if he could be trusted. He extended his right hand, I extended my left and said "no, with the left hand".

A bit of backstory. In my dreams, I have engineered the left side of my body to absorb, while the right side emmits. I wanted to absorb some of his "energy" to determine if he was indeed a threat. A left handed handshake is essentially and instant "I now know you" in my dreams.

In any case, with the handshake came a sensation like an electric shock. We both recoiled. He exclaimed "WHAT ARE YOU?!!" and rolled back slightly. His human form then began to waver and he started to look more like a realistic version of an ape that Dr Seuss might draw. I tried using telekinesis on him, but it didn't work. It was official, he was fae. For the first time ever, I managed to get some degree of telekinetic purchase on a member of the fae, but I couldn't thrash him about. He was being very confrontational and just wouldn't let up. So I switched gears and decided to use my TK on his eyes, which popped. That was done.

Now to address the aliens. I went over to the panel, told them the address I wanted to go to (which was back where we started), but they pushed a button labeled "lies" which overrode the previous and subsequent commands. I then decided to escape and try to make it back there on my own while they were out. I used my teleportation technique. I closed my eyes, fell backwards, and through the floor. I focused on what was just outside the elevator, and that's where I ended up.

Misses:
I then tried repeatedly to get to Jack, but found that I kept missing. I have to visualize where/when I want to appear, they had been, and would be, doing these sorts of dissections for a while, so I kept showing up at the wrong place and time. It actually seemed like they were prepared for me, like they knew they had a problem with a guy randomly showing up, killing a few guards, and then escaping. I couldn't save him.

Meditation:
I decided then that I needed more control. So I performed the teleportation, except this time I cleared my mind. As I tumbled in this place outside of space and time, I folded my legs into a lotus position, my hands in a prayer position, and I began to meditate. I cleared my mind. Thoughts moved in and out like the passing wind, but my mind became still. I found that the lotus position helped me anchor into the meditation more as the kinesthetic sensations held a small portion of my awareness on my body, and it's odd position. This, combined with the sensation of falling, anchored me very well into this dream meditation.

After meditating for only about 10-15 minutes, I decided that enough was enough. I "landed" in an attack from which I could find no way out. It was very vivid though. I remember feeling the dust and dirt as well as seeing the light streaming through holes in the roof. I decided I would teleport again. But this time I was more lucid, and realized that I didn't have to go save Jack because he was just a DC and not really someone suffering who needed my help.

Sex:
I find the next bit a little unfortunate. It's annoying because it's so common. When my self-esteem and confidence were lower, I had fewer sexual dreams. Now that I've overcome a lot of my anxiety issues, I find that my confidence and subsequently my libido are soaring. This often results in my LDs turning into sex dreams. It's like when I become sufficiently lucid, my brain asks "So, what do you want to do?" and my libido yells "WOMEN!" This was an interesting one, because it involved combining meditation, yoga, and sex. It was fascinating, but ultimately I didn't accomplish anything that I set out to do.

Accomplishments:
That all being said, I did accomplish some awesome stuff this morning.
1. My powers worked on the Fae for the first time.
2. I meditated in my lucid dream again (which is more difficult than I make it sound).

Both of those are pretty big deals.
