      Forgot by now what the original lucid dream was about exactly, but it was another thing where only I could do something. Not sure why that type of dream appeared two nights in a row. I left into the attack on titan world for the final day of the challenge through making the city fold up from the ground. It was already cool seeing every building rise into view but seeing the walls go even higher than expected was impressive to see. Even after all the other dreams I could not get used to how huge they are. I almost began destroying the city from the start, but I was able to remember about the whole deal of only destroying more if the survey corps attempted to evacuate. I headed straight for the barracks, preparing a sword out of the long hair-like strands of hardening I had on me.

      As I neared the barracks, I noticed one of the titan team members waiting by a building. I went with them and we entered a building where I met many more team members than in any other dream. I could tell this was supposed to be everyone on the titan team for the competition along with several dream characters. I was already confident with the few from before but this seemed like overkill. We strategized a bit and when the meeting ended we headed towards the barracks in groups. Each of the members had swords with them from my ability to defend themselves in human form. Since the survey corps did not know of our full numbers we had a group with all known titans, with the others splitting to spread across to cover more ground.

      We could see that training was still going on, so it appeared they listened to our demands from the last dream. My group walked up to the front gate, seeing some of the survey corps already standing there waiting. They tried to convince us to turn back as our last chance before the attack happened, with their swords already out. In the middle of conversation one of them rushed at me and tried cutting my head off. Quick enough to call it instinct, I was able to stop the blade with my hand and shattered it. Seeing the risk to the other teammates and wanting to add impact, I used mass telekinesis to shatter all the other swords pointed at us in what appeared to the characters as a result of the impact. Our group transformed and the fight began. With our appearance several of the buildings in and out of the base had their windows shattered as countless survey corps attempted to end the fight before we could cause any destruction.

      With all the soldiers coming out, some were slicing at legs and other at arms but I noticed they were not aiming for the nape for some reason. Since the colossal titan already transformed, he ran into the center of the base to completely crush everything there. I was trying to defend myself by flinging the people attached to my arms and stomping at those near my legs, but the amount of people was much higher than in any other fight. Looking to check on the other titan, he was already on the ground with no limbs left. Even without aiming for the weak spot, disabling the titan brought him down and made the nape much easier to hit for the kill. It was too late for me to save them, but their strategy was now clear. The other titans surrounding the base started transforming in an attempt to overwhelm the survey corps, but I could see countless soldiers come out the buildings near them as well. This was clearly meant to be a fight between the entirety of both teams.

      I restricted my dream control to only what my titan could reasonably do, as I wanted it to be a fair fight. With each group rushing at the barracks, there were three other titans that were very quickly cut down by all the soldiers slicing at their limbs. I started trying something similar to my titan sized sword in a past dream through spinning blades around my limbs to cut the cords off the soldiers surrounding me. Even if they were not killed by the blades, they would eventually lose both cords and either fall to their deaths or be unable to come back up. The colossal titan is capable of releasing a ton of superheated steam at once for a massive explosion, so we got him to do that even if it hit other titans. Although some titans were hurt by the blast, it terribly burnt and even killed some of the survey corps surrounding the titans. Between the blasts of heat, one of the soldiers were able to launch themselves up at the colossal titan’s nape and take it down.

      Even if we were able to take down most of the survey corps, about half of the titans have already been killed. I began forming spikes and blades from the ground near the other titans to defend them, and that brought the soldiers’ attention to me. To end the fight, getting them all to attack me would prevent me from needing to run at every single soldier. Once every soldier was on me, I formed walls in all directions to close them in with me. Having it close off as a dome, they were unable to escape. With their teamwork they were able to cut my body down and even decapitate my titan form, but my ability to move my human body within kept those attacks from finishing me off. Reforming limbs and spikes with the hardening as they kept fighting eventually brought me to not even resemble a humanoid shape anymore.

      It was difficult to get the last few survey corps as they continued dodging and cutting at my endless spikes but eventually they were worn down along with their equipment through running out of swords or gas. Once I finally got to one soldier left, I took down the titan form to fight them one on one as a human. Bringing out my own blade against their last sword, we were able to talk as we fought. Complimenting each other’s strategies and skill, we somewhat bonded even as clear enemies. Our swords finally snapped, and we were able to come to an agreement. Although we had the plan to wipe all the survey corps out, I would want to fight this soldier again. We chose to end the fight as a draw, and I made a way for them to leave the walls I formed without the other titans noticing. On pulling down the walls, the rest of the titans saw there was no one left and claimed victory. Those of us left were able to gather for a celebration in a successful ending to the pr. I doubt I would return to this specific pr but there is enough left over for the pr to continue developing if I were to come back.

      In this lucid dream a gate was opened up to go between the world and hell, and I was one of the few who could go back and forth. While there I was also capable of writing names to free people back to the living world, almost like the opposite of a death note. My goal was to write down every name to bring everyone back, but with the clearly repetitive task ahead of writing billions of names, I chose to enter the attack on titan pr. Using a similar gate as the one for hell, I had it send me over to the pr. I wanted to complete the task of speaking with the survey corps so I went searching for them instead of my titan teammates. It was not hard finding one, as at this point there were soldiers all over the streets. Most were practically policemen instead of survey corps, but it still got me closer to them. As I was about to approach one, a member of the titans pulled me into an alley and asked what I was even doing. I told them I wanted to hear them out at least once more before they were wiped out.

      They agreed that I could, on the condition that they along with another member came with me. I saw they had another teammate with them already, the member being Saizapod. Agreeing to it we went up to the soldier I was going towards earlier. The soldier started panicking after recognizing me and noticing I came with others, but we made it clear we just wanted to talk. I could tell they were going to attack anyways, so I decided to have fun with it and made myself invincible right before they tried shooting at me. I was a bit surprised since I was used to swords in the pr but it still did nothing. We could not get the soldier to calm down, but he eventually agreed to take us to other soldiers that had direct connections to the survey corps. They seemed to be a higher rank than him since they scolded him a lot, but agreed to meet at their choice of location.

      They seemed to have something already planned at the location we were headed towards, as they were able to quickly decide on a place. It was outside of the walls, so clearly meant to be away from civilians and important buildings. As we went there some of us tried asking questions to the soldiers but they really did not want to give away any useful information. I used mind manipulation to make them willing to talk, and after they answered a question for me the other titans caught on and repeated questions that weren’t answered before. Our questions included asking who we were meeting along with whatever defenses and plans they had with the place. It turns out they wanted to bait us there later, but since that was not supposed to happen yet there were still a good amount of supplies openly stored there. There were also a lot of survey corps members there, but I wanted to talk to them anyway and was confident if a fight were to happen.

      As we were arriving there were a few buildings almost as if it were a small town, but based on the soldier’s description it was all a survey corps base hidden outside the walls. He spoke about the situation with a survey corps member outside, and they started bringing tables and chairs outside to set up the meeting. It was smart of them to not trap themselves inside a collapsible building with titans, but that didn’t make much difference to our plans of a peaceful talk and potential fight. Once it was all set up, the three of us titans were faced with about 10 survey corps members and several watching in the distance. Among all the visible members I saw Hukif, Cookino, and theshirecat. It was a really long conversation revolving around plans both sides had, possible peaceful solutions, with a bunch of threatening each other mixed into it. Although we were confident in our abilities, it would be more advantageous to have all the titans with us rather than facing all the survey corps with just the three of us. Although it was uncertain if a fight would break out here, we revealed our plan to attack the barracks with all the training facilities around it. If they used that information to simply evacuate it, we would destroy the city.

      Now writing a bit about the conversation, I’m not too sure what the strategy was behind telling them but it got the soldiers to focus on that day rather than focusing on just the three of us. When the meeting finally ended we were unsure if a fight would break out but we reasoned they would deviate from our plan for the final fight if there weren’t enough of them left. We used a simple carriage to head out and the same driver took us back, but the entire time we were unsure if a fight would break out from the soldiers taking us or from other soldiers within the walls. We were able to arrive safely and went our own ways, with me leaving the pr there. Not much action happened, but it was all to complete the old task and to set up the big fight on the final night.

      Attack on titan spoiler warning! The lucid dream was originally of a road trip that recently arrived at an entire city built by a single person. Despite its size it was more of a piece of art as the city was made without a demand for one, resulting in all buildings being vacant. It was at this stop where I chose to return to Paradis. Inspired by the entire setting being created by one person, I morphed and moved around the ground and city I was in to recreate the world of attack on titan. I found myself at a random spot in the city once everything settled into place, not exactly where I left off. I remembered the fight from last time, but forgot we ended in one of the titan team’s homes. I could tell this was set days after the fight, but I had to look around to find out more information on how the world has developed. Taking the easiest route, I went straight to the first person I saw on the street and noticed they immediately backed away.

      Knowing my identity has been seen before, I grabbed the person before they ran off. They were scared but quickly answered all of my questions. The survey corps and the police within the walls were looking for the three titan members caught in the cafe last dream, with more information and pictures of our faces drawn on the newspapers. I thanked them and went off to get a newspaper to learn more since I was starting to attract attention this way. Seeing a newspaper stand I spawned some coins on my open hand and paid for one. As told, there were professional sketches and descriptions of me and the others. To appear less like the description I got rid of my hardening imitation of hair and used some under my skin to change my facial structure and height. Realizing the man at the newspaper stand saw me changing, I used one of the discarded hardened strands of hair as a blade to kill him.

      Before I left the scene someone else walked up to me, I was ready to attack but saw they were just another member of the titans. They did not have their identity revealed, so they were safe to walk around the city with me. As we were walking they explained where the titans were hiding now along with plans to take out more of the survey corps. They have taken care of some squads by reporting sightings and taking them down as a group, along with simply taking some squads outside of the walls by surprise. They were emboldened by my success with their lookout in the past dream and now most of the survey scouts were killed or unable to fight anymore. Most of the ones left were captains, extremely skilled soldiers, and trainees. The mission we wanted to complete soon was destroying the barracks along with anyone inside. The survey corps would lose trainees, equipment, and effective instructors. My teammate also asked for more strands of hardening so they could all use those as swords.

      We were walking as we talked, and arrived at the office building I was familiar with. I was worried that some people there would recognise me and wanted to keep my distance, but my teammate reminded me of my change in appearance. I was also worried about harming people I got to know in the area since over the dreams I met people throughout the town and although I did not write about each of those interactions I became familiar with the area. As the building was essential to the survey corps, taking it down would dramatically lower their capabilities. While thinking and talking about it, my teammate pointed out two other teammates who arrived. Once again Oneirin was there, and the plan was to have him destroy the building while the rest of us spread out defending him. We split walking away from the building in different directions while Oneirin walked up to the front doors. The guards immediately went for him and he charged through the doors.

      In a single moment, light shot out the windows and lightning crashed at the surrounding buildings reaching out from the exploding building. He was the colossal titan. Right as the deafening shockwave from the explosion reached me, I wondered what defense he would even need. Almost as an answer, soldiers came out of several surrounding buildings with some still putting on gear and others already jumping from rooftops to counterattack against the titan. Among the waves of soldiers I saw Meiseki, Iluzjusz, and Harlequin again. Seeing all of the soldiers, I transformed along with the other titans in the distance. Titans being in all directions led the soldiers facing away from me to quickly notice I was behind them as well, But now having the sword use of my titan power in mind I sliced some down with a created blade. I grew other blades out of the ground for the other titans to pick up along with collars they could put on to protect the obvious weak spot of their necks.

      Putting them on, the rest of the titans were able to easily take down multiple soldiers at once. It got considerably harder after the first couple kills as the only soldiers left were truly the most skilled. I saw some soldiers running on one titan and another titan with their arms sliced off. On my end, I was cutting down those I could and regenerating whatever parts were cut by the more difficult ones. I was able to trap one in a hollow orb made from the hardening, but once that happened to one the rest became more cautious. Considering the other titans were already given the collars for protection, I did not pay much mind to them as I looked around for the buildings soldiers came out from. Crushing those likely destroyed equipment stored there as the survey squad were clearly prepared for an attack on their office.

      The colossal titan was already on it, destroying all buildings near the office. Once we caused enough destruction and killed all the survey corps we reasonably could, We ran at each other to prepare our escape. I started with shooting my hand through the three smaller titans to grab the people out of their forms. I had to reach my arm up and jump to grab the body in the colossal titan. Once everyone was collected, I was surrounded by every surviving survey corps like a swarm of flies. I once again pulled off a similar escape by balling everyone into a hollow orb and throwing both the orb and my encased body. One of the soldiers was able to grab onto the orb in flight and I simply stabbed into them with a spike since the wind pressure left them stiff in the air. On landing I granted the other titans invulnerability for a moment since there was no reasonable way for them to survive the landing even in the orb. I released them and got myself out of my crystal casing, and I ended the dream after completing the mission. I was not too concerned with ending at a consistent place this time.

      Attack on titan spoilers! The lucid dream originally had me exploring different museums, and the world’s different vehicles, history, and creatures really made it interesting to look around. When it was finally time to get to the world of attack on titan I wanted to try the advanced flying task. I flew all the way to space and crashed back down into where I left off. It was cool seeing the walls come into view and very fitting considering I was thrown there at the end of the last competition dream. Allowing the crystals to disappear away almost like ice melting at high speed, I walked away from the wreckage caused by my casing crashing into several buildings. The warhammer titan came with the ability to create anything from a white armored material that appears as strips on the titan’s form. I used that ability to partially disguise myself, creating long white hair and covering some of my clothing with the white armor. It can flex like cloth, so it did not stand out any more than a white shirt would. Some of the military arrived on the scene but it would take at least an hour for my now two man squad to reach where I was.

      Several of the soldiers that arrived took control of the scene, ensuring everyone’s safety, saving some people from the wrecked buildings, and asking witnesses for information. I was also stopped and told them I just saw the buildings explode and that I wanted to leave out of fear for any other destruction that might happen. After leaving the scene I headed straight for one of the titan hideouts. The memories of the previous warhammer titan have been extremely useful for adjusting to the titan team. I did not have the maneuver gear on anymore, so I ran through alleys and streets at high speeds to reach the base in a reasonable amount of time. Their base was a warehouse, and in the past they’ve ran or hid whenever someone tried breaching through the doors. To enter while catching them off guard, I went through the wall on a side where there was no doorway or window to enter regularly.

      There was a meeting taking place with six of the titan shifters, and they all were shocked and clearly ready to attack when they noticed me in the building. I could tell one of them was Lucid Wannabe due to looking like his profile picture and another of the seven was Oneirin. No explanation for him, just dreams sometimes identifying people. The other four were unidentified whether they were regular dream characters or somewhat competition teammates. Looking back my memories should have identified them all but this is how it played out. I tried calming them saying that I was one of them, showing that I still had scars under my eye due to the recent transformation. They were still uneasy, saying they were sure they knew all the titans. Some tried to prevent others from giving away too much information and several were talking at once. Since they were still reasonably on edge, I agreed to sit down and tell them everything I know.

      I told them about the village outside the walls, the titans near it and within the woods, the shifters being kept safe in the town, and the squad that was sent there. As I told them my side with some revisions and answered their questions they got a bit less tense. One of them asked about the other titan shifters there, which alerted me to the fact that the member likely knew the titans personally after I tried presenting the story as if I was one of them. Since that member would get in the way of my integration into the team, I manipulated their memories so they would forget about the appearance of the warhammer titan. I then told about the other members that were in the village and answered another question they had, which was the type of titan I had. I told them I was the warhammer titan, and it luckily turned out that the member whose mind I manipulated was the only one who had seen the warhammer titan before. They discussed only a little of their plans to take down the survey corps before another member came in through some stairs that reached the roof saying soldiers were headed our way.

      I chose to head out since the soldiers likely were tracking me down, and both Oneirin and the member from the roof joined me. The member that was the lookout told me they heard everything and also expressed their frustration at not catching me before I entered. We entered a small cafe nearby and the other members explained that appearing to meet in a public place made soldiers lose suspicion of a base being nearby even if they were caught. Two soldiers walked in and as they walked to our table they clearly looked in my direction. They asked if I was at the collapse nearby and I acted as if I only heard it in the distance. In the middle of our conversation, the lookout member transformed and they were able to grab and cover us as several soldiers came crashing through the windows. The lookout appeared as a regular titan, and Oneirin said he would cause way too much damage if he transformed. Leaving it up to the lookout and me, he gave one piece of advice right before I transformed. Since the warhammer titan was capable of moving and forming its hardening and body anywhere, I was also able to move my human body throughout the titan body rather than keeping it in the ground attached by an obvious line similar to the show.

      Transforming, I followed his advice and put my body into the chest of the titan to keep it covered while avoiding the obvious weak spots of the nape or an external casing. There were soldiers swinging in from all directions, attacking the lookout and slicing at my titan’s body even as it formed. Oneirin was kept safe in one of the lookout’s hands. Among the soldiers was the captain, Hukif, and one or two other squads which featured Harlequin and Cookino. Cookino somewhat resembled their avatar and Harlequin appeared with reddish hair. Since most soldiers would aim for the nape, I paid extra attention to attacks right as they landed there and grew spikes immediately to take down any soldier that attacked. Growing out a sword to cut at the cords of incoming soldiers was also incredibly effective, as they would be unable to save themselves from falling at that height if both of their cords were cut. Some that lost one cord even stayed in the air long enough to get their other cord cut. The lookout was effective at grabbing and slamming some of the soldiers but had to keep one hand back to protect his neck.

      Once all soldiers were dead, escaped, or unable to fight any more, we went over a few blocks and transformed back. There was no point in hiding our identities from the soldiers that just saw us turn into titans, but they were unable to follow us in their state. Once we regrouped in a different building, the titans excitedly told the others how we fought and I explained how I needed somewhere to stay now as my house was definitely not safe to return to. One of the other unidentified members allowed me to stay at their place, so we both headed there and I figured it would be a good place to leave off. Once we got there, they said they only had one bed so back to the couch it is.

      Attack on titan spoilers warning once again. The lucid dream originally had a lot of flying around and fighting with different powers, and it was somewhere in those fights where I figured I might as well go to the attack on titan world to fight with the gear. I teleported into the home where I left off, and it was already morning with the sun shining through the windows. I woke up in the vendor’s house instead of my own, but once again getting up from the couch. Getting up I saw her making breakfast and I decided to help out with preparing it. Something was missing so I spawned it in the fridge to make it seem as if it were always there. This reminds me that even though it was just on the bread and not in it, I did make bread with almonds in real life similar to the almond bread from a past dream. We talked over breakfast then went out to each of our jobs. Once together with the team again at the barracks, we discussed what happened last time and some plans with how to approach them. When he arrived the captain had us head out quickly since we were able to discuss on the way.

      As we headed out the gate and towards the town, each member of the team shared their ideas. Gareth suggested we should investigate quietly, staying far from the town to avoid being noticed. The previously unnamed member Ramon stated that we should enter with authority as we are soldiers, and take in members for interrogation. Hukif was happy with Ramon’s plan and wanted to be the one to interrogate, telling just some of what he would do to them with the mention of a rumor that eating titans and people involved with them would give you the strength of a titan. Knowing it was a dream allowed me to bend my morals and be alright with the plan, although I preferred if interrogations started peacefully. The captain acted as a mediator to the talk and agreed with the plan of interrogation but had us begin by observing from afar to catch the suspects by surprise. Doing this would prevent them sneaking away and possibly make them reveal their intentions immediately.

      Once we were close enough, we got off our carriage and walked towards the town while staying mostly behind hills. With how easy it might be to spot us in the mostly empty field, we moved on to searching for an empty part of town to get in. We eventually found an abandoned looking building on the other side of the town, which would allow us to watch while in the shadows of the building. We got inside and were able to see some of the townspeople passing by. We did not see any of the rivals from last time so we were unsure if they ran or hid due to our visit in the last dream. To figure out where they were, I used X-ray vision to look into every building and found that they weren’t hiding in the town. While seeing through walls though, I found out there was someone hiding in a basement to the building we were in. As I went to tell the captain, the moment I pointed downwards he let me know Gareth already figured it out. Ramon was taking notes of the people we saw, so they directed me to write in it if there was anything else to say. I wrote that the two rivals I saw were gone from town, and the rest agreed that the most obviously involved was the one hiding under us. They were practically trapped with us, so Hukif and Ramon went down to capture and interrogate the person in the basement.

      The part of the team that stayed on top still watched out and planned on who to capture from the town if this interrogation did not work out, but after only a short while Ramon came back up. He explained that they were able to capture and interrogate the man but Hukif’s interrogation was too rough for Ramon to stay and watch. In the middle of his explanation Hukif followed up and said he got the guy to talk. I and the captain went down with him and saw that some fingers were cut off with steam coming from the ends. He explained that he actually tried eating some due to the rumors but they became steam in his mouth and nothing seemed to happen. Anything else cut off seemed to react the same way and even biting to eat a part would be cutting it off. I was surprised that most of the information he gave was just how much he tried to eat the guy, but I honestly should have seen it coming. I knew that it was spinal fluid that was essential to titans and walked up to the guy, and was stopped by the captain who asked if the man gave any information. It turns out the man only started naming accomplices but we could get more information out of him. I went over to the back of the guy’s neck and used super strength to bite all the way into it.

      He was instantly killed, and I was instantly given all of the man’s memories along with knowledge of the titan I took. It was the warhammer titan. Both members went straight to attacking me, with one launching a cord at my face with their gear and the other instantly slicing at my neck with their sword. Since pain can activate a transformation, I instantly transformed to save myself from both deadly attacks. Through the man’s memories I could see that he already was told of us defeating all the titans in the forest, so he was too scared to transform against us. I formed the entire titan’s body, exploding the abandoned house and instantly crushing the team members that were still on the floor above us. The ones in the basement were able to escape from the home using their gear and already were swinging around me. I wanted to carry on the fight another time due to feeling that it was going to be morning soon and didn’t want to wake up in the middle of the fight. Since this titan form can keep the user’s human body in a crystal case out of the titan body, as a titan I picked my human body up and threw it over the wall and into the city. Landing and still in the crystal case, I transferred into another dream to end the competition dream right there.

      Reminder that these dreams will have spoilers for attack on titan due to its theme. This lucid dream originally had me doing some 3D modeling in person like if I were using blender in VR. When I wanted to get into the Attack on titan pr for the competition, I summoned the walls out of the ground. Remembering that the last dream left off with returning to the walls, I allowed the rest of the pr to fade in almost like if it were painted at high speeds before my eyes. I saw the carriage I was supposed to be in, but I was being taken away quickly. I was then able to see that a titan had my in one hand and was running away from the carriage and walls. The titan noticed me looking up at its face but kept running without eating or hurting me. I would have attacked, but its grip kept me from being able to pull out the swords to fight back. I could have used super strength, but I was honestly interested in where they would take me.

      I tried talking to the titan since it was clearly different from the others but it mostly ignored me. Since not much was going to happen with the titan not speaking up I sped time up until we reached the titan’s destination. We went into a forest with trees much taller than the titan, and it finally spoke. It was unhappy with what it had to do, but explained that we had to die after what we saw and did in the town. Our hurried leave alerted the townspeople into knowing we saw that something was wrong, and it turned out that the titans outside of the village were transformed people who were capable of keeping actual titans away from the village. I assumed this was one of the competition challengers who I saw in the bar, but the titan did not reveal their identity. Since my entire squad left quickly, they were targets as well. I was ready to attack as the titan started to put me down, but they tightened their grip the moment before letting me down. With that grip they were able to break a leg and explode the tank in the maneuver gear. With a broken leg and broken gear, there was no way to fight back or follow as the titan ran off to retrieve the rest of my squad.

      In our conversation it was revealed that the in universe reason for me waking up on the way back was my dream self falling asleep due to drugs put into the feast. Since my character did not eat as much before leaving the feast, I ended up waking in world way earlier than the others. The titan was able to come back carrying the carriage which had the entire team still asleep. I was able to heal my leg and use control to repair the gear while the titan was away. I stayed on the ground to see what they would do, and the titan stood in front of me with the carriage. They have become hostages and the titan was using them to interrogate me. Since I refused to answer their questions they pulled out one of the squad members, the first being Hukif. I was about to use control to wake him up but right as I was about to, he already pulled out both swords and cut off the hand that was holding him. The titan screamed and covered their neck as he launched himself to their nape and was blocked. All the other members fell to the ground as the titan let go of the carriage and began to wake up from the impact.

      I could feel the entire ground shaking as titans appeared in all directions, alerted by the speaking titan’s scream. The speaking titan ran into the forest and we were not able to catch up to them as there were too many titans in the way. Now with all team members awake, we were able to work together to defeat the titans coming after us. We mostly split up due to the sheer number of titans but there were times where we assisted each other in taking down titans through cutting and distracting them. Once all the titans were killed except the escaped speaking titan, the captain checked the amount of gas left in our tanks and the condition of our swords. Considering how spent we and our equipment were, it was not worth pursuing the titan or the town until another day. We had to walk back due to the carriage’s destruction and it became night during our walk.

      Not being able to see each other so well did bring some anxiety over titans and animals attacking but also brought us to open up to each other more. Some of the team was on edge at my introduction because I came after two former team members were killed in battle, and I was seen as an inexperienced replacement for their dead friends. We were able to reach the gate this time and as we walked back through the city I was able to see the return of soldiers from a new perspective. We had to return to the office to return the gear, which would be delivered up to the barracks later on. We were dismissed for the day, but the captain told us we would need to return to the village for further investigation next time. We split up and as I was about to enter my home the vendor from the first dream spotted me and we went over to her house to catch up on things. I found out her name was Irene, and it was nice having a side to the pr that was simple village life apart from the fighting. It was while I was still at her home that my dream left the pr and I moved on with the night.

      I went straight into the lucid dream this time since I knew I’d sleep way less this night. Spawning in the home where I left off, I treated it as if a day passed in the world despite leaving off on the couch rather than somewhere better like the bed. Guess in the attack on titan world I’m the type of guy to sleep on the couch. I remembered the goal of completing a mission for the survey corps, so I left my house to search for their office building. I headed in the direction I expected the headquarters to be in, and right as I was about to ask for directions someone came up to me already seeing how frantically I was looking around. The passerby walked with me towards the building and as it came into view they commented on how casually I was dressed for someone that had business with the survey corps. After thanking them for their help, I went into an alleyway to get out of sight and teleported back home to get the clothes I bought last night. Teleporting back, I walked straight into the building and found it to be very busy with employees and soldiers there.

      Among the soldiers was the man I met last time, and he came up to introduce me to the other soldiers who were around him. Although he was being a bit rough which was fitting for our past relationship and his personality, he was being very welcoming. The man was the captain of his squad, and I got to know his name along with the names of the three other members. The captain was named Vertin, one of the members was the participant Hukif, one was named Gareth, and I honestly forgot the last one’s name. Although he was able to get me past all the paperwork and time usually needed for new recruits, I had to prove my abilities officially. We went over to their barracks in a simple carriage and on the way the other soldiers told stories of how dangerous it was out of the walls and seemed to be testing my knowledge and will to fight.

      At the barracks they had rigs to test out my ability with the maneuver gear and the captain had a lot of confidence after having seen my fighting ability in the last lucid. It was fun to try out the rigs for both balance and swinging around a stand representing a titan. There were also regular exercises and I easily passed through those. The rest of the team watched through some of the tests but were sent to train as I took the regular exercises. After confirming my ability the captain was allowed to send me out with the team to their next mission. Our mission was to clear out whichever titans may be on the other side of the walls closest to the city that got attacked in the last dream. On the way there I had to try some of the food from the barracks and they were laughing and joking a bit as I tried to choke down the dry rations.

      Once we reached the walls there was a gate big enough for the carriage to pass, but it looked small considering the wall it was for. We had to wait for soldiers on the wall to confirm there were no titans near the gate before we passed through. The captain told us we were headed for a small town to check for titans and survivors, but on the way there we should keep an eye out for titans and possible breaches to the wall. As we were getting close to the town there were two titans among some trees and the new members decided they would like to see how I handle real combat. I walked up to the two and they noticed me, with the taller of the two running ahead. As they ran at me they got to a hill where there was nothing high to aim at with my gear, so I shot at the ground higher up the hill to shoot myself at them. Once past the point where the gear pierced, I continued running at the same extreme speed and pulled out one sword to amputate a leg from the closest titan. I ran into the chest of the titan behind it and was able to stab the sword straight through their neck. The other one struggled to get up with its missing leg and was easy to finish with its head still near the ground.

      I headed back to the carriage and although one of the members acted like a sore loser the rest were happy to have a competent new team member. It was later brought up that they bet on how well I would handle the titans. Once we got to the town we surprisingly found no titans. Some of the people came to greet us and we were taken to the village leader’s home to have a meal as thanks for taking down the nearby titans. The meal they gave was much better than the rations from earlier, but I ended up thirsty and went out to a bar nearby. The owner ran up to the door right as I came in and asked if something went wrong at the leader’s home and I saw that the only other people there were Sensei and Establish. Recognizing them, I quickly understood there was something behind the village keeping us from meeting. I agreed to go back to the house and on entering I told the leader that we should leave quickly since the people were strangely persistent on us not seeing anything other than this house in the village. This time all of the members complained as we left the building, and we headed back. I was beginning to wake up on the trip back into the walls, and the dream ended right as new tensions were rising.

      This dream entry is for the attack on titan themed event, and there will be spoilers to the show in here.

      The lucid dream originally had me as a dad, and the dream reached a nice spot to end on. It was when I was back at home when I decided to travel to the attack on titan world for the competition. I went into the basement of the house to find an exposed concrete wall and walked into it to transition into Paradis. As I went through the wall, I could feel myself passing by one of the colossal wall titan’s legs before reaching the other end of the wall. Once out, I saw the medieval looking city and looked up to see the massive walls, which really gave perspective to how huge colossal titans really are.

      I took a walk through the city trying to decide what I should do since I did not know what team I would be on yet. While wandering around I ran into the market and decided to try out the food available. I ended up getting an apple and after talking a bit with the vendors I went over to try some almond bread they recommended. I don’t even know if almond bread is real but it tasted good in the dream so it might be worth searching for in waking life. As I paid for the food I realized my clothing matched with the world, having been changed from the modern clothing in my past dream. One of the vendors ended up going with me as I left the market, as they decided to close at the time. We went over to buy some clothes and she pointed out the soldiers as they were traveling through another street. Although I was unsure of what my position would be in the competition, I remembered my goal of using their gear in this dream.

      We continued into a store which had a very wooden interior that I enjoyed, and we went to try out some outfits based on what was sold. After having some fun going through changing rooms and talking about the fashion trends, we went to pay for a set each. It was while I was in one of the changing rooms that I spawned a couple coins on my hand and put them into my nearly empty wallet. Using those extra coins I was able to pay for both of our sets and the cashier ended up giving a DV coin and other smaller coins as change. As we were about to leave the shop, a massive titan foot slammed through the ceiling with giant shards of wood and stone being thrown everywhere. I could tell that even if the titan didn’t directly step on anyone, the destruction of the building would kill everyone inside. With a hand motion I sent all the debris away from the vendor and cashier. I told them to run out as I stayed looking through the now torn roof at the massive titan.

      Looking up at the titan, I did not know if I would eventually be on its side but I knew that at the moment I had to stop it. It was about 6 stories tall, already with a cord tied around it from a now chewed up soldier in its mouth. It pulled the soldier out of its mouth and ripped off the cord, dropping the body as it turned to look at me. I was able to dodge its hand and grabbed the body as I ran to a part of the store hidden from the titan due to its still standing ceiling. I undid some belts and pulled the gear off the soldier’s body to put on myself. Once on I pulled the stretched cord back in, right as the titan finally managed to turn around to reach at me. As it crouched down to pull its hand under the ceiling, I ran next to its arm and used the gear to sling myself at the highest point of the building that hasn’t fallen yet. Now crouched, the titan had its nape exposed and even lower than the highest point. I used the other cable to send myself at its neck and sliced it with the swords attached to the maneuver gear. Now falling apart, only the cable attached to the building was anchored and I was sent flying out the building.

      I thought of returning to the people I was just with, but I decided to continue swinging around to see if there were other titans within the walls that may threaten them. I was able to cut down 2 or 3 others as I swung through the city, and as I was swinging around the last titan trying to find a good angle to strike, another soldier cut it down. They landed on a roof and swung an arm at me to get my attention. I landed on the roof as well and once I was right up to them they punched my face. I was expecting a compliment on killing the other titans but they made it immediately clear why they were so angry. They were asking who’s gear I stole, they didn’t recognize me and I was clearly not in uniform. I explained my side to it and we got into an argument about respect for the military. He took the gear after we were back on the ground and even though he was still mad at me he told me to go up to their office tomorrow. Although I had an attitude problem he did recognize I had what it takes to fight for them. At the time I thought I’d go only if I ended up in the human team, but on waking up I realized it would be worth joining either way.

      Since the decision was left for the next day, I chose to go back to the vendor and saw that they were safe with the cashier in a nearby building. We were happy to see each other and spoke about what’s happened since we were separated. As it became night I walked them home and went over to one of the other homes to claim it as my own. I walked inside and changed around the furniture to how I would like it, and allowed myself to transfer into another type of dream through sitting on a couch and imagining other situations.
