Before WBTB

Fragment:
I'm at work, being questioned about a quality process. LC is there, gesturing toward an area of the production floor.
There is a grid of square objects that I'm not familiar with.
We're at the part of the floor where the fitness section used to be.
Feeling is neutral.

After WBTB

Smol Pup:
I'm driving with my girlfriend around our neighborhood. I asked her why we are out here, and she doesn't know.
Later I've walked down to town and wandered into a store.
My arm is resting on a side table, and I notice a small puppy's tail wagging and hitting my hand.
He's a small little guy, and seems happy to see me. I feel a strong emotional bond immediately, but I don't RC.
I start talking to the store clerk, and they are trying to sell the puppy to me.
There is a second puppy, that is bigger, but also cute.
...
I tell my girlfriend about the store and she wants to see the puppy, so we go back.
We go back to the store and there is a back area with a bunch of cages and even more cats and dogs.
There is a security guard there that isn't happy about our trespass, and the fact that we woke up the animals.

You Can't Hurt Me:
I wake up in bed, but I remember that I had just been doing a WBTB, so I do a nose RC.
I can breathe. I'm dreaming! But my body feels really heavy. I remember what I read recently:
The first thing I should do is take stock of the situation to help it stabilize. So, I stay in bed.
"This is a dream. I just became lucid. I'm in a dream bed in my dream house."
After a few moments, I try to get up again. It works. My body is free.
I get up and out of bed. Closing the door behind me, I notice that the hallway is dark.
"Lights up!" - but nothing happens. Oh well.
I turn the corner into where my kitchen should be, but there is a wide open living room-kitchen setup.
It resembles my landlord's setup, with the kitchen on the right and a bigger living area straight ahead.
My girlfriend is on the right in the kitchen, my brother is further back in a living area, and his wife is further back in another den area.
I try to make my girlfriend naked by looking at her and then looking away, but no cigar on that.
I recall that I should start going for points...what was my three-step? Summon! My first step was summon!
I vaguely consider what I should summon, and decide on a weapon. I think about a machine gun, and when I turn to look at a nearby kitchen table, there it is [1].
I pick it up and it reminds me more of a paintball gun than the real thing. Whatever. I don't actually want to hurt anyone here, so I start dotting the ceiling with bullets.
The gun makes a muted sound, and leaves perfect bullet marks like in Goldeneye 64. My brother notices me doing this and asks me what the hell I'm doing.
He pulls out a desert eagle and points it at me.
"Go ahead and start shooting. This is a dream. You can't hurt me."[2]


Come at me, bro.

He starts unloading his weapon into me, and I feel nothing [3]. Rather than shoot him, instead I grab him by the leg and start throwing him around like a ragdoll [4].
He doesn't end up injured, but this does end the altercation

Not going to lie, it felt pretty damn good.

Then I make my way over to a side room where my girlfriend is and do some naughty things with her. This wakes me up.
I'm back in bed, but I remembered I was just dreaming, so I do another nose RC[5,6].
Still dreaming! I'm super excited that I had hit two out of my three tasks (I've never completed the three-task before!) but I forgot the middle one is "ask for advice" not "interact with a DC".
Regardless of that, I decide that I want to try for #3: a teleport.
I get up easily from bed this time, no body calibration needed. Though in retrospect maybe some stabilization would have been good.
I open the bedroom door and enter the hallway. I decide that I will imagine Silverlight Forest on the other side of the wall, just out of my view.
Rather than try the slower "turn and wish" method, I change up my style and take off at a sprint around the corner as fast as I can.
I'm thinking "Forest! Forest! Forest!" hoping that I can finally make the teleport work.
I accelerate to super speed [7], and the world starts to morph around me. I'm going so fast, I should have hit the far wall of the house by now, but nothing is impeding my motion.
I get excited as I see a spec of green. Then another. And another. A green plains zone starts to form in front of me. It has World of Warcraft graphics.
There are Fire Elementals dotted all over the field. The visual is now half house and half Warcraft, with digital blocks transitioning between the two.
I'm excited that I'm going to pull off a teleport FINALLY!
But before I can slow down and settle into the scene, I wake up.
