#335 - DEILD Chain - 3:37AM
WBTB Caffeine
DEILD with breathing mediation
I wake and feel super alert from the caffeine so I decide breathing meditation would be best. After a few seconds I stop because I feel odd like my body glitched. I think something is wrong at first but quickly realize that I am entering the dream really fast. I go back to relaxing while focusing on slow, even breathing. No other thoughts.
I am standing in my living room and immediately start with my goal. I figure since I had such great fire images in my last LD it should be easy to summon fire magic. I try it by holding a hand up and blind summoning. I see flickers of light on the walls like I am holding a torch so I look at my hand. To my disappointment, I find a mostly normal hand. I try snapping a thinking of a lighter. Nothing. I put three fingers together and imagine I am holding an energy source. My fingers glow like I am holding a super bright LED. I look closer, starring and sort of mesmerized. The dream crashes.
DEILD no thought just waiting
For some reason I think I think I am partially awake and I am chatting with NyxCC on my phone with CL and Dreamer and some other DV members. I type "Damn" and reenter the dream.
Back in living room. NyxxCC is floating in the corner near the front door. I'm ok with her observing and for some reason I don't bother to interact with her. I have a lot of internal dialog reasoning this all out. I decide to go outside walking right under her.
I want to fly to space again but this time I really want all the fun visuals of flight. This time flying is easy but every time I reach a certain height, I hit the void and have to visually focus, finding myself on ground level, having to start all over. This happens three or four times until I give up.
For some reason I think I have DEILD (False DEILD? FA?) Again, I think I am partially awake and on chat. I am mainly talking with NyxCC. Again I just type "Damn" and reenter the dream. I see multiple line of text pop up. I assume they are all asking what my problem is. I make a mental note to explain later.
I decide to continue flying but stay low. It has been dark out but now it looks like early morning. I think I must be running out of time. I see something odd on the horizon. It looks like the old Disney movie logo but I only see the top half. There are a handful of stars that match the design with the lines in them. They sky is that a sickening blue color.
I think that if I fly there I will enter a dream version of Disney Land but I quickly get distracted. I see traffic and a decorative line of trees that lead into downtown. I follow it flying from tree to tree. Suddenly, a wall forms in front of me with a ceiling threating to trap me in. I Spider-man up it and phase out the ceiling. I tell myself I will be on top of a tall building. There's some darkness but I emerge looking down on the city from a concrete platform. I see people entering an open football field. Curious, I descend.
As I get closer, I see cars pulling and people milling about. The field is now a baseball diamond. I am more of a fan of baseball and I get a little excited. There are no players but I have and idea. I strut out onto the field waving like an honorary guest. I begin to hear cheers from the crowd. Instead of stopping at the pitchers mound I step up to home plate. Someone hands me a bat and I get ready. Randy from work is now at the pitcher's mound. He tosses a weak throw and the ball falls just short of the plate like a lead weight; no bounce or roll. A ref takes up the ball and gives it back to Randy. He does an underhand toss much closer but the ball fall short again. I begin to feel cocky and mouth some taunts at Randy. After the third time I tell the ref to just give me the ball. I toss it up and swing fast. Visually, it looks like I missed but I couldn't allow that. I hear a low "THWACK" and the ball goes up. Now, we are in a gym and I hope the ball crashes through the wall, but instead, in ricochets in a corner and out an open door. I shrug at the crowd and drop the bat as the dream ends.
