Spoiler for DILD: Defeating Frieza:

14.01.2017

(DILD)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

I'm walking through a city in ruins. There's chaos everywhere. I'm being chased by something. I know I can't die, people depend on me. I turn around. It's Frieza who has been causing chaos and chasing me. I realize I'm dreaming and plug my nose to make sure. I jump in the air and fly above him while charging a Kamekameha. I throw it at him and here's a big explosion.
The explosion destabilizes my dream and I find myself in my bedroom. I walk towards the door, keeping my eyes open I phase through it. I think of what the next step is and the dream destabilizes again.
I lose lucidity and find myself playing Super Smash

First DILD of the night: 10 points
RC: 1 point
Fly: 5 points
Unspecified Dream Control: 5 points (Kamekameha)
Fully Phase Through Big Solid Object: 10 points
Step 1: 5 points (fully phase)
Dream Theme: 5 points (Frieza)
Total Points of the night (and comp): 45 points

Not nearly as good as my last start (I think it was 147 points for the first night last comp), but hopefully I will be more consistent this time around

Also, add to my personal goals:
Surf (new)
Go to the summit of Everest (new)

Night one.
4 NLDS (4pts)
5 fragments (2.5pts)
2 failed WBTB (2pts)
total points: 8.5pts

I think this night deserves a few highlights cooleymd style (though they're a bit dark to be highlights):
Most creepy
- I Find a jar with a live chocolate tarantula on the car seat, destined to be a gift for me. My gaze is locked on it. I'm confused about how I feel, part of me is disgusted, the other wonders if I might enjoy the sensation of the eight struggling arms as I swallow.
Closest to lucidity
- I teaching some young cousins how to drive. I am at the wheel for now. Slowly, their excitement for driving fades as they witness my horrible driving. I try to stay confident and improve my driving, but as usual in dreams, I have little control over the car, especially the speed. I try to slow down to better steer, but the car hits things in the street, flips and leads to a big collision killing many innocent people. The boys never want to drive in their lives. Frustrated, I rewind everything to their surprise and tell them you can always rewind when driving so they don't need to worry. They only question this momentarily, then they are happy again about the prospects of driving soon.
Most cathartic
- I walk back to a rent from a work, in a snow landscape, passing a gate. After looking around the multi-room house, I find a fellow lessee just outside. He is going to give me a set of keys but then a neighbor from the other side of the street yells that if he gives them to me, he will kill me. Nonchalantly, the lessee keeps the keys and goes back inside, though it's implied he protected me this way. Fearless, I walk across the street to confront the man. First, I ask him if his comment was a bad joke or a real threat. A threat. I argue that his behavior is unacceptable, we should be a community. He points out I upset his daughter. I recall having a conversation with his daughter at the pool at a neighborhood party (false memory or another dream?) but nothing was out of line, so when he starts calling me names, I don't seek to have the last word and walk back home frustrated but proud of myself.


Because I like dream inspired challenges, here are new personal goals:
- Eat a live chocolate spider (new). Don't judge me. What happens in dreams stays in dreams.
- Control a car properly, speed and steering (new).

DJ Entry.

Spellbee2 contest night one - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

Night 1=1 WILD and 1 DILD piece within a regular dream
Completed 1 and 2 of 3 goals
Points = WILD=10, dream chain since I didn't get up and write down previous dream=2 10*, WBTB=2, interact with a DC=2, ask for advice (goal 1) =5+5, fly=5, practice a hobby (second goal of 3 parts completed in one night) =10+5
46 54 points total for this night (if I added points correctly)

*A DILD is scored as a DILD, no matter if you woke up long enough or not. The "stay awake long enough to write" rule only applies to short awakenings for the purposes of DEILD - it's only used as a guideline for what counts as a dream chain/DEILD (2 pts) vs an additional WILD (5 pts). - spellbee2

Crap, I almost forgot about the competition! Anyway, here we go:

Three-Step tasks:

• Telekinesis
• Teleport
• Element Manipulation

Personal Goals:

• Find dimensional scissors and create a portal (New)
• Fly at a high altitude (New)
• Go inside a TV screen (New)

That's it. Also, no points for night one since I did not record any dreams or do WBTB. I gotta start fixing up my sleeping schedule.

I have edited my previous post, also adding scores
