      Fragment:
      I’m staying somewhere in a swamp-like area. Like a hotel.
      There is a patio type spot with a bed so low to the ground that it is nearly level to the water.
      I tell my girlfriend that we should have stayed in this room, but I know she wouldn't have wanted to deal with the water.



      Swampland Hotel.

      Firelord Putin:
      Two Fire Nation brothers are coming towards me, leaping over tall buildings to get to me.
      They want me to come see something.
      They've invented something to find the Avatar.
      It’s a big ATM-like machine. It beeps and boops and makes a confirmation sound, printing out a receipt.
      Then another group of guys appears and questions what we are doing. We try to keep the info secret, but they know.

      The Fire Lord and Zuko are giving a speech to the Fire Nation on a stage in front of a large crowd.
      I’m in a large group including people from every nation. Tenzin from Legend of Korra is part of it.
      The Fire Lord is talking about loyalty and exceptional individuals.
      My group slowly sidles onto the stage and fills in behind the Fire Lord, catching him off guard.
      I notice the Avatar is with us too.
      When we come into the crowd’s view, the speech stops abruptly.
      The adults are sent off to a room with the Fire Lord to discuss a treaty.

      I’m now back in a regular hotel room, with J from high-school. I notice she has a small mustache.
      We are sharing a bed, but more like a field trip way than a romantic one.
      I start to unpack and setup the bed. There are about six people in the room.

      Some of the group returns from the war room, and the situation has instead changed into us being the United Nations, and the Fire Lord being Vladimir Putin.
      Somebody is telling us how the UN was grilling him about things like Area 51 and similar, and how he danced around the questions.

      Waves:
      I’m watching somebody play a modded version of Mario 64.
      There is a central town square. It’s circular and has tall buildings all around.
      Mario has been modded to be Crash Bandicoot.
      He has a hammer attack and the sound clip he makes when attacking is from a meme.
      The player goes down an alley and arrives in a large flooded lake area.
      We are discussing some seams in the edge of the rockwall keeping all the water in place.
      It looks like the beginning of the second water level in Mario 64.

      Later we’re in a store from the town.
      I’m physically there now, no longer watching somebody play the game.
      It seems to be a convenience store, but it is all messed up.
      There is a flooded section, where a wave of water repeatedly is knocking over shelving and causing chaos.
      An employee is blaming me for it.
      I tell them they should move product away from that section. They get angry with me.

      We’re upstairs in the store now. This doesn’t seem to be meant for customers.
      Daylight beams in from a window.
      My coworker B is here now, and somebody else.
      B is talking about something he is most proud of me for achieving, but I don’t recall doing it.
      I admit I don’t know what he is talking about.
      The other person claims I abandoned the people I supposedly promised to help in B’s story.

      Arrested:
      It's daytime.
      I'm driving with my girlfriend's Mom in the passenger seat through a roundabout.
      Traffic is slow. A policeman on a motorcycle signals to pull me over.
      ...
      I've been arrested. I'm at the police station in an interrogation room.
      The woman interrogating me is talking down to me, but I know I've done nothing wrong.

      La Bamba:
      A boy and a girl are fighting in a hallway.
      The boy is looking for his sword, the girl has it. It is a double blade, with velcro holding it together.
      ...
      The girl doesn't give the sword back to the boy.
      It is night-time, with a blue-green feel to the scene.
      The classroom is a portable pod, similar to the ones from my elementary school, but closer to the ground.
      I'm in the scene now and notice the sword outside the classroom door.
      ...
      I've returned to the classroom, and know that I am late.
      It is a band room, with the regular odd variety of sounds coming from people warming up (or messing around).
      I hear a violin, and notice how out of tune it is. I reason that, if I were to learn that instrument, I would suck at it for a time too.
      M from the clarinets in high-school marching band starts to dance and play a "La Bamba" type tune in front of the group.
      The teacher highlights him, and then the class joins in.

      Zuko:
      There is a Fire Nation City from Avatar the Last Airbender.
      Azula is chasing Zuko in some kind of battle or showdown.
      ...
      Zuko is part of a ceremony at a big outdoor theater.
      He is renouncing the Sun, and getting painted to symbolize his new loyalty.

      Fragment:
      I'm laying in bed, and I think there might be a home invader.
      I can hear noises coming from the kitchen.

      Fragment:
      There is a hot-tub car outside that has a mechanism to drain the water and then transition to driving mode.

      Fragment:
      My girlfriend's sister and her friends are over at our house eating snacks.
      They are very loud, so I go over to talk to them.


      Drastic:
      I'm at the edge of a city with towering buildings.
      The buildings abruptly end and transition to dirt.
      The drastic change reminds me of the border of Thousand Needles and Feralas from World of Warcraft.
      The whole scene has a grey-ish tone to it.
      There is a cloaked woman on the other side of a large gate.
      I know that she is bad, the antagonist.
      I go to reason with her, and she convinces me to let her in.
      Her power decreases as I become more confident, and the threat dissolves.


      Fragment:
      I'm at a rooftop party with J from the Tots.
      There are two small dogs on a landing above looking down at us.

      Fragment:
      I'm with Androids 17 and 18 from Dragonball Z, and a coworker.

      King's Training:
      I'm in a warehouse-type area on a metal stairwell going up.
      There is a line of kids, classmates, lined up for try-outs.
      An intercom announces that the King's Tournament will begin soon.
      I remember that the King's Tournament is for basketball.
      A group of 3 kids in front of us recognize me and the person I am with.
      They seem impressed that we have King's Training.
      There is a sense of belonging in the group. Something similar to how I felt in marching band from high-school.
      In this situation I was the senior, inspiring the younger ones.
      The person in front of me in line is up. He messes up his free-throws and become very frustrated.

      Stufwell:
      I'm at a party scene. It reminds me of C&B's wedding reception from a few years back.
      I'm standing over by a carpeted area near the bathrooms. It looks like a similar location from work now.
      There is a person telling me that there is a tiny man that lives inside my car.
      ...
      I'm in the bathroom now standing in front of a mirror.
      I'm holding a shotgun, and the end of it is formable like clay.
      I'm fiddling with the end of the gun.
      ...
      I'm outside at night by my car with somebody.
      We are opening the hood of my car to look for this tiny man.
      We call out to him, and silence.
      Then, we hear a voice that sounds like it is deep underground.
      The voice tells us his name is ____ Stufwell, and he is on his way up. He has a fun accent.
      I notice that there is a rat standing in the hood of the car, and try to warn Stufwell.

      Fragment:
      Something about my friend J from the Tots.

      Nerves:
      I'm at a baseball diamond. The plate is part of my driveway. I am up to bat.
      There is something going on strategically, such that the pitcher is forced give me an easy pitch.
      I'm nervous because my team is expecting me to nail these.
      I mess up the first one. Strike. Then the second. Strike. And the third. Out.
      I'm mortified and leave the plate. I go to the side of my house, through the gate to sit down.
      I'm sitting over where the trash cans normally are, on the rocks.
      I'm trying to remember what the strategy that forced the pitcher to go easy was called but I can't.
      J from work comes over to me. I open my conversation with him similar to how I do in waking life:
      "So, dumb question but..." I don't recall his answer.
      I'm feeling nervous because I recalled that I still have to perform my band solo tomorrow.

      ...
      I'm in a warm-up room at a school with my sax.
      It's Solo and Ensemble, where I will be performing a classical music piece
      similar to this one for a judge.
      My brother is there too. He's already warming-up. It's the same solo piece (with piano) I will be performing.
      I'm concerned about whether we are allowed to warm-up yet.
      ...
      I'm in a small bar.
      Lifelight, from Super Smash Bros is playing on the Karaoke machine.
      There is a DJ off to the left. The music is low quality over the speakers.
      The DJ leaves and I go over to his station. I try on the headphones and notice that the music is low quality there too.
      I reason that the original file might be low quality, not necessarily just the speakers.

      Spit:
      I'm with girlfriend's friend group, with their respective significant others (H&A and G&S).
      It's sort of blue and cloudy outside.
      I'm with the guys by large rocks playing a game.
      ...
      Later I'm at an apartment that I know is mine.
      I'm standing in a living room area in a circle with the guys.
      I decide to spit up some water I was drinking, toward G.
      I have the intent to show that something outlandish like that is OK.
      A thinks it is funny, and G returns the favor.
      But G isn't returning the favor. Though the spitup looks like clear water, he is actually puking from disgust.
      Oops.

      Underground:
      I'm at my childhood home's basement with my brother and my friend D.
      There were some other people, maybe my sister's friends.
      They are talking about some back pain they are having.
      I remember that I have been working on that, and tell them that I have some stretches that might help.
      I start to demonstrate, but I can't get the movement quite right.
      One of the girls points to the window, and says my sister is coming.
      It's dramatic, like when Azula shows up in ATLA.
      I'm holding a goose-stuffed animal.
      ...
      Later at night time, I'm sleeping on a mattress up against the wall in the same room.

      Showing Off:
      I'm in a mall or super complex flying around. I'm wearing roller-skates and doing all sorts of aerial tricks for the audience below.
      I remember feeling a bit nervous, but also excited.
      I'm exploring all around the complex and working my way upward. I'm interested in exploring all of the different shops at different levels.
      At one point, the setting becomes Disneyland.

      Summoning F:
      I'm at my Grandma M's condo in the kitchen. There are a few of my family members there too.
      I notice there is a game on the table relating to prospective memory.
      I recall that I've been working on prospective memory for my lucid dreaming practice.
      I perform a nose reality check and
      become lucid.
      I try and summon F, but it doesn't work. I recall that sometimes it is easier to summon using a door.
      I leave the kitchen and go to the laundry room, shutting the door behind me. I imagine F standing in the living room.
      I open the door.
      It works. She is there. Either my family is gone now, or I simply ignore them entirely.
      I go over to start some naughty stuff. I feel the dream stability "shake" when we embrace, but it doesn't fall apart. I feel relieved about that.

      ...
      I've lost lucidity by now. I'm in a downtown city area underneath a highway. I'm with F, looking for somewhere to continue.
      I notice that there are cameras all over the bottom of the highway above us and tell her this is too public.
      F is now a man wearing a trenchcoat, and the story changes such that he is my buddy cop partner or similar.


      Rude:
      I'm in an elevator filled with water in an inner tube. I'm with a bunch of other people also in inner tubes and wearing bathing suits.
      This is some kind of ride at an amusement park. Over an intercom, a man announces that we will be racing the 1st years.
      I get excited and sarcastically say outloud to the group "WE'RE GONNA CRUSH THOSE KIDS!"
      One other person and me get pulled aside and removed from the race. Apparently this was unsportsmanlike conduct.
