I am going to be doing this again as I was disappointed with how I did it, so will no doubt try again on my next LD trip :D
So I was in this room on the space station (OMG how many more times am I going to be back here?!?!) and I am sitting on the floor, on this chair in front of me is a girl, she is very pretty, I tried to talk to her as she was really upset, and I wanted to hug her, but she was pushing me away - You can't do that, I thought, then I realised its because I was not lucid yet - and with that, I became lucid. Don't you just love that transitional feeling of reality within dreams when you go from dreaming to lucid, feels amazing, it reminds me of the matrix, you know what Agent Smith takes over another body, I kind of feel a little like I would expect that to feel when I get lucid from DILD.
Anyway, now she is a bit happier to comply, since I now OWN her and this dream. She smiles, I give her a hug and ask her if she would like to help me find some cards to do the lucid task. She smiles and nods and we stand up. Now in my flat there are a set of cards sitting on top of my DVD player in the lounge and have been for months, so I know how to find them, but we are on this damn space station (AGAIN, for those who have not read my DJ, I had about 5 separate dreams on this damn thing, the DC's are funny though).
So we get to the door, and know when I open it, it will lead to my door in the lounge. We open the door, but it opens out from my flat mates room, never mind I think, close enough.
We walk down the hallway and into the lounge and BINGO - the cards are there, and for the first time in YEARS I get a little too excited and feel the dream fading!!! NOOOOO this is NOT happening to me! I stop walking, try to stabilise but it is not working, damn, I rush to the cards, some are already face up, others are face down, I know I don't have time to sort them, so ask this DC (since she was upset) if she would like to pull out the card for me.
The smile on her face increases, she pulls out a card and turns it over....
Its a Jack of plums cross with King of clubs!!! Yes, I am going to have to photoshop this, because it was weird, but not as exciting as I had hoped it would be. I was a little dissapointed because I wasnted to come here with a good story, but I said she had done well and I let the dream fade.
So finally did the task, after 3 LDs last night I got closer with each one! It has only taken me 9 months to get here!!! But with my new technique I think I will be able to nail them all now :D
