OK. Right. Boom.
Finally, I'm writing up all the dreams I can remember and lasted more than a few seconds that I've had in the last few days.
Winter Fantasys
Type: Lucid Dream
Length: 30-90 seconds
Comment: Yay! Lucid Goal Completed! Thanks for the tip about touch, bro.
I was in some huge, very ornate dining room. I remember Sitting on the only chair, gazing out through the window at the garden. It was all very hazy, as if I were underwater. I remember sound was dulled too, and I could only move very slowly.
Suddenly a cup of tea appeared in my hand. I just accepted it and started to drink. I looked into the cup. A bubble rose up to the surface, then popped. And then another. The cup became warm, and then hot. More bubbles. The pot was boiling. Steam started to rise from it, moving around my face. The tea boiled angrily, moving up to the top of the cup, spitting and hissing, until cracks started to appear in the cup.
Then the cup exploded.
I became lucid. The cup had disappeared, and now I was standing in the doorway to a garden. I remembered to touch things, try and make my dream clearer. It worked - not only did it work, it made my dream completely clear. It was amazing.
I remembered The Lucid Task of the Month. I moved outside onto the lawn. I raised my hand and concentrated on winter. The ground frosted and the temperature plunged. It was freezing. I concentrated harder, and snow started to fall, thick and fast, turning the world around me a clear white. But I wasn't finished. Winter wasn't just cold and snow - it was a time of year. I concentrated again and time sped up. The trees stiffened and cracked, then turned black. Died. The leaves fell into the snow. Around me the plants changed too. A small rat-like animal on the ground became fatter as months of winter fat caught up with it, and a nest in the tree widened and thickened.
And so it went. The sky darkened, the animals changed, but I'm not good with them so I don't have a clue if they changed right. It became winter, real winter.
I decided to make a snowman. Without powers, without lucidity - I just got down on my knees and shifted the snow into place. Soon I had a snowman, with dead branches as its arms and stones for its face.
But I had forgotten to touch anything in a while, or rub my hands together, or anything, and so the dream began to fade.
There was time for another little bit of magic. Again, I just raised my hand. The snowman rose up. It's face moved to make a mouth. It started moving. Just like a real person. It became a person. I stepped forward, and asked it clearly -
"What is my name?" I said. I expected it to say my normal name - surely my subconcious knew. In dreams I'm usually very aware that everything is a product of my mind.
Sure enough, it answered with my real name. Then it laughed, a happy little tinkling sound. And then the snow rose up. The dream became hazy, and ended in a sheet of white.

Logic's Night Off
Type: Non-Lucid Dream
Length: 30-60 seconds
Comment: In this dream, kiddies, we maim, torture, mangle, decimate totally and generally rape everything that is reality.
I was riding a big black horse down the street. As we got to the end, I hopped off and strode towards a house between some oak trees. The horse disappeared. I didn't think much of it. I knocked on the doorknob, and an old lady with a wide smile opened the door. I bought some apples from her that she just happened to have in her pocket. We talked for a few minutes about apples, and property, and whales, until she smiled and viciously attacked me with a bread knife.
I dived through the door past her. Everything became black for a seconds, and then I was rolling down a mine shaft. There was no light but I could still see everything. I landed in a cart full of what I suddenly knew to be archeologists. We rattled down the shaft. The archeologists only spoke meaningless jumbles of sentences, so I didn't talk much with them. Something big was following us. I didn't look back. The tunnle spat us out into a lake. The archeologists disappeared.
There was a full opera standing knee-deep in the lake. Without a word I pulled out a baton from god knows where and started conducting them. A light, tinkley tune.
The dream ended.

Umm...ouch.
Type: Nightmare
Length: 30-60 seconds
Comment: Being ripped apart by monsters who happen to be human and then being made to eat your own organs really sucks. This dream isn't for the faint-hearted. It gory, sickening and messy.
EDIT: Thankfully this was a hazy dream. After much thought, I've decided to leave it out. Some doors just need to stay closed.

Thinking Outside of the Box
Type: Nightmare
Length: 60-90 seconds.
Comment: Again, an awful dream.
It was very dark. That's all I could remember at first. Darkness. I remember being hunched up. Very stiff too. With the limited space I had, my hand scrabbled around in the ground around me. I was in a very small space. Some sort of container.
My fingers found an object. Somehow I just knew it was a match. There was a matchbox too. I twisted, and turned, and managed to light the match.
I was in a coffin.
Panic rose up in my throat. My neck felt suffocated, like it was being squeezed. I started gasping for air, but my neck became tighter, panic strangling me, biting back a silent scream. I was frightened - my mind was filled with fear, my brain completely flat with it. I couldn't think, couldn't feel anything - apart from the tide of fear and anger and panic that were drowning my mind. I was like an animal, a caged animal, crazed, paralysed with terror.
And then the match went out.
I lashed out at the sides of the coffin, blood trickling down my arms. I was screaming, and crying. Screaming and crying, and all the while more blood appeared, more and more, just lashing out, screaming, crying. And the blood ran down my sides. The coffin never dented. I hit and kicked and screamed and cried and tore my hands into a mess of rags.
And still I lashed out, all the while crying in my silent grave.

Yeah... What the hell do I put here?
Btw, even the thought of the last nightmare is painful. I'm still not sure how to describe it. When I feel okay with it, I'll post it up.
