Thread: Autumn Competition 2023

Night 3

Two NLD :2pts

I assume dream control task points are only claimable when intentionally performed while lucid, so I don't think my DC interaction counts.


Total points: 3

Spoiler for Night 3 Dreams:

Dream 1.

I dreamed of driving north on a hilly, straight highway in Florida. Very vivid bright blue skies and green trees and grass. My speedometer read 70mph but I could feel myself going 100mph or more. My vision split and I began turning stereoscopic; I could see two roads and two steering wheels. It made me incredibly nervous.

Scene changed. I was in a store, watching people apathetically prepare for an incoming hurricane. Worried, defeated faces. I tried telling someone they could use one of the ridiculously large tupperware containers as a makeshift boat if the store floods. I was ignored. I wandered near the customer service counter and into a dark room that was empty except for a small bed with a rusted, golden frame up against a wall.



Dream 2.

Dusk in the woods.

A line of people dressed in medieval garb trudged down a trail quietly. Some of them seemed like prisoners being escorted. A man approached me, casually asking me if I had seen the news lately. I said no. He explained it was all over TV, that undeniable proof had been found that something intelligent had once inhabited Mars. I asked if there were photos, and he nodded. He told me he has some that haven't been made public yet. He showed me glossy photos of dusty coins with strange symbols, what looked like discarded plastic with labels that had English characters mixed with symbols I hadn't seen before. I looked closely, searching for a printed date. I found "2036". There were more photos of dozens of slabs of stone stacked like cards and dominoes in tall formations.

I was now aware of being in a high tech space suit, climbing onto a rover. The other 5 people on my team were already huddled on the back in single file like they were on a big bob sled. We drove out of the building and down the street, past a small crowd of people snapping photos and into a YMCA. A double set of doors slammed shut by themselves, which I understood as an indication that we were getting close to the portal to Mars. We drove into the pool room and then off the edge of the pool and into the water towards the portal that was opened up below. I could feel a strange kind of energy in the room. I tried fitting my oxygen mask to my face but found I couldn't breathe with it on. I mildly panicked and was about to jump out of the rover and abandon the mission when I woke.

Spoiler for DILD:

This was a low lucidity dream. I was drawing a picture using colored pencils and I knew I was dreaming, so I used wide swipes with the pencils, making the image take life of its own. There was my father and I told him to look and I drew a grassy area using a green pencil and it had a wobbly moving life-like quality to it. Then there was an oak tree and oak leaves in the picture and the leaves were actually falling/moving. I held my hand with the palm up and blew, like blowing more leaves into the picture and it worked, there were more falling leaves in the background. I showed the picture to my father. I took some notes, wanting to run this as a prompt in Midjourney. Then when I looked again, the picture went completely static and looked like a sloppy child's drawing with long coloring lines scribbled wide apart, a very simple landscape of green grassy hills with a tree and blue sky. I said: "Yeah, dreams do this." and woke up.

*I guess it could be unspecified dream control or even summoning but I like drawing in waking life, so practicing a waking life hobby fits best I think.

Nice!

I still have yet to attempt bringing my drawings to life in my dreams.

I imagine that it's pretty cool.

Spoiler for Lucid:

Regular Lucid

I'm with a bunch of new people I just met, but we have already become very close friends. We come to an apartment building, when I begin hearing this loud "cricketing" sound inside my head and everywhere around us. I look down to the ground and see a cockroach with almost feet-long antennas. Suddenly the cockroach spreads it's wings and leaps right towards my face and grows to double my size! I become lucid. "Jesus christ what the f-! Gah!" I push the disgusting thing away from me and realize what gross things can also happen in lucids. I thankfully wake up right after.

Night 5

Spoiler for The WILD:

I am in a non lucid dream that I am at a childhood friends house. In the dream, he has a brother and sister and they have friends over. The brother is playing with a toy sword and I start playing knights with him. Then I wake up because it's the time my alarm normally goes off even though the alarm is not turned on.

I realize I am not fully awake so I let myself slip back into the scene. I am laying on a lawn chair in their backyard. I get up and go inside to find my friend but before I can my dad wakes me up because it is past the time I am supposed to get up.
