Thread: The best questions to ask DCs

I think I've taken the first steps towards better communication and interaction with the DC world.

HAHA!! That would get them all messed up unless theyre really good at math and realize you cant divide by zero. Theyll start malfunctioning hahah

Well, naturally, the best thing to ask them is if they want to

Kidding

Along the lines of the impossible math stuff, I saw this in a Dilbert comic, ask them to go to a phone and dial the exact value of 22/7

"Which way to the 4th dimension?"
And they better point it out!

i asked what kind of Crunch bar I should buy and he started ranting about the different kinds.

I call this DCILD.

That's actually a really good idea! I think I'll try that next time I get a chance. Not sure whether it will work or not, but it's totally worth a try!

Dude then either me or my soul has some serious issues with zombies. ZOMBIES THIS MONSTERS THAT EVIL SPIRITS THAT! Last time I had zombie dreams was before tonights lucid, I just killed off zombies twice my size with kitchen knives, lucky for me today they were really slow... I couldn't force myself to wake up either like I usually can... Man I need to cleanse my soul >.<

That is what mine said when I asked a couple. Here is a brief excerpt from my dream journal:

I'm sitting on the edge of my brother's bed, talking to 2 DC's who are sitting on the other side of the bed, leaning their backs against the wall; a white guy and a white girl, both roughly my age. I ask them, "So what's it like to be a dream character? Just a figment of somebody's imagination?" The girl gets kind of offended at this. She gives me a "look" and says, "We're not just 'figments of somebody's imagination.'" They go on to explain how they have a consistent dream world/community set up. Every time that I go to sleep I visit their world, and when I'm awake they still exist, I'm just absent from their world until the next time I dream. The DC's have complex relationships with each other, jargon that I'm not familar with, the works; according to them, it's like a parallel universe. I ask them if it's the same world that everyone goes to when they dream. They don't really understand my question so I rephrase it. "Let's say that I have a dream in which I meet a dream character named Bob. Then let's say that a friend of mine has a dream in which he meets a dream character named Fred. Would Bob be able to meet Fred in the dream world?" They look at each other. "Eh... I don't know about that..." they reply. Basically, 'no.' I mention that it must suck that they can never leave the dream world. They say it isn't so bad.

Here's another interesting excerpt about when I asked a DC where we were at:

I walk into the master bedroom and begin talking to this kid who appears to be about 13. I ask him what town I'm in and he says, "Kildeano" (kill-dee-AWN-oh). Never heard of it, I think, probably doesn't exist. I ask him where that is, and he says Florida. He takes out a map of Florida to show me where it is. The map is a relief map, the kind that shows elevation. On the map, there appears to be a lone massive peak in the middle of Florida, and that's exactly where he points to Kildeano being located. "Looks like we're right on top of a huge mountain or something," I say. He nods and says that the town was at the top of a volcano. He says the volcano had erupted a few times, but that "it wasn't going to explode" (I didn't realize that was an issue, lol). I get the idea to write some of this stuff down, as I think it'll make it easier to remember when I wake up. I ask him how to spell Kildeano. He recites a seemingly random string of letters, numbers, and apparently some made-up symbols. It was like, "A, 1, G, F, 9, Dye, S..." or something like that. It made no sense whatsoever, but I tried to write it down anyway. I didn't know how to write down the "dye" character, so I just spelled out "dye." I ask him his name, and he says it's Travis, so I write that down.

Ask them for the lottery, play the lottery the day before, and see if the daily unused parts of your brain can calculate it!

You should give them one of those idiot tests... like, get a piece of paper and write "Turn Over" on both sides.

I always wondered where they would go when i'm awake...probably still in the same place, just unaware they are there because wea re awake at the time.

A couple I have asked recently are Why are you here and when am I going to die? Interesting answers to them lol

Ask it to be friends with you.. and tell it to visit you in evry dream and tell you to realitly check. So that you can go chill with said person. If they say no... just rape them!
