Can you know you're dreaming and not be lucid?
The odd time I'm dreaming I know I am dreaming but still carry on the way I would if I didn't know!
Like last week I woke up on my bed and was really tired so said I'd just ly there and go with whatever image came to me. It ended up me being still lying on my bed but with an owl type pokemon thing in my hand and showing it to my brother. I knew I was dreaming but just decided to go with it, I remember being fascinated with the level of detail I could notice on the owl thing, it was liked seeing a crystal clear hd image or something, but even though I knew I was dreaming I seemed to be acting as a non lucid version of me.
Then I said look because this is a dream I can get that owl to fly over there past my door and come back (I seemed to view coming back as something that would be impossible in real life!), the owl didn't come back. I got out of my bed and felt pretty wobbly for a moment when I stood up, I went after the owl and heard my bro coming up the stairs(despite him being with me in the room seconds before) and thought s**t I'm naked and this could be really embarrasing if I'm not actually dreaming, I can't take the risk, so said I'd close my door and have my lucid dream in my room... closed the door an woke up!
It was strange I seemed to know I was dreaming and was thinking it was a lucid dream but I had reactions like oh no I'm naked, my bro being in 2 places at once not seeming strange, wow look at this owl, and flying back is only a dream thing!
