Thread: Lucid Task for the Month of March 2008

I was invincible as rambo. some guy was shooting me (with a mini gun) and it didn't hurt so i was like "this is most likely a dream" and i turned into rambo and started walking closer to him and then i get in a slap fight with him.

You didn't consciously create that scene, you were already getting shot as you went lucid. After you went lucid you stopped getting shot and just slap fought?

Judges?

Was he still shooting you after you were lucid? If not then I would say to try again.

Based strictly on what was written in his post, I'd have to say no and please try again. Even if he was lucid and walked into the bullets.. he knew they wouldn't hurt him as that's how he became lucid.

Damnit! I just had a LD and completely forgot about the tasks. All I did was try to have sex the whole dream. Oh well, there's next time.

Sex is bad! Don't tell me that you had sex in your lucid dream. I yell at you

I yell at you

Oh noes! The dreamguide yells at me. Ruuuunnn!!

Dang, I was so close by accident. I convinced myself I couldn't fly, but I used my jacket as a parachute so it didn't prove I was indestructible. Just good at convincing myself that things will work... Here's the dream anyways, (just because it was cool and I remembered the February task for a couple minutes though I didn't carry it out since I got distracted as you will see). I'll try next time if I remember (and the dream is stable).

EDIT: That's a good idea Graysong. I'll wrap this thing in spoiler tags to to not clutter up the page too much.

Spoiler for Flying to a Cloud Dream:

Flying to a Cloud


I was crossing the major road we have here in our town/city. It basically is the backbone of the town (and naturally it is getting filled with traffic). I saw a Baskin-Robins on the left. "I wish I had some money," I thought. I found a quarter which I think was on a tree branch. It looked... a little weird but nothing too different. I started looking for more. I found two more coins I took to be quarters... but something was wrong with them. They were very big. They were shaped like octagons... They were made in 2000 but they didn't look like any quarters I knew... They... weren't real! Of course! I was dreaming. The scene instantly changed and I was on a hillside. I was looking directly at my friends face (also my partner taking the job of the "doer" in Write it Do it where we got first place) but the dream started to fade as usual. "Ridiculous," I thought, "the dream shouldn't be fading." I started to question why the dream would even fade. I guessed I just always believed it would. But it shouldn't. After making this simple connection the dream came back. So that was my problem. I expected the dreams to fade.

I looked around a little. The dream was still a bit unstable. There were flickers here and there. I figured this would calm in a couple moments and it did. Out loud I said that I would remain in this dream for at least 15 minutes to increase my confidence. OK... well... hmm... I could fly as usual I guessed. I hopped up and went into a great and well controlled flight. As soon as I got past the hill, I looked below and found I was about 2000 feet above a small town. Each building was surrounded by green from trees, grass, and small plants. It was very pretty. I turned left. "So this is what some people meant when they said a lucid dream could be the best moment of their lives," I thought. It made me really happy. Unfortunately I lost a minute or so of the dream upon waking, but I had gotten down to the town and I was walking (still lucid) with a couple young girls. I remembered the task for February, and decided to try it even though it was March. I "fell" into some underground chamber. I saw another young girl and decided to ask her for something I didn't know about myself. Before I could, she asked if I had seen her pony. Err... rather than get too tied up in a plot to find a pony I left and continued down this underground tunnel. I got above ground again, but I got stuck inside a brick wall! Don't ask me how, I just did!

The view switched to third person. I could see "my" leg stuck in one side of the wall. I had somehow become a female? Whatever, I needed to get out of this wall. Maybe... someone was on the other side and he was going to blow it up. That thought didn't work. My floating but still stuck self looked to the left. Some guy (a bad guy I thought) was also stuck in the wall but he had an enormous hammer. That was my ticket out of here. The guy needed to smash the hammer into the wall since his arms were through and he could move his elbows. "I" got shot in the leg. Of course, being a dream and not even in "my" body I didn't feel a thing. The guy with the hammer started to smash it. It felt like I was controlling it in a way. He finally broke it and "I" fell onto the sidewalk below and came back into "my" body. But I was a girl. Hmm, whatever. I sort of reached in and removed the bullet, just to be on the safe side so that I didn't have to think it would slow me down or something. My science teacher as on the left, and I was facing a building. I wanted to fly back over the town. As I jumped to fly, she began to chant "Girls! Girls! Girls" and then "666, 666, 666!" Err... alright then. Some people below told her not to say that and they started to ask each other of the origin. For some reason I thought "Swedish" so of course someone below yelled that out. I looked it up and I was really wrong though. Soon enough I was back to normal and a guy again.

I continued to fly. I took off my jacket and felt cooled off. I thought it would be fun to parachute with my jacket. Anything was possible over all. I convinced myself I couldn't fly. I tried, but fell just as I wanted. I was going down very fast and when I used my jacket I stopped instantly. Pretty fun I thought. I looked up at the sky. It actually looked normal. I could see the moon. I thought it would be very fun to fly to it. But... that was too ambitious for right now. I saw a cloud, and decided to fly there instead. I took off and kept going up and up. The cloud kept getting closer. The dream was fading. I looked down to regain my senses. OK, a little more. It all faded to black, and I woke up.

For the basic task I WILDed into my room where I had a guitar on my lap. So I tried hitting myself with the guitar. Then I ran into a mirror(which I seem to do a lot). But I felt that those didn't suffice.

So I kicked a hole in my window and jumped out from the second floor, ending up on my neighbor's lawn. It was really a dark yet serene place with the vast sky up. And that was the end.

I seemed to have managed the Advanced Task, however hazy the dream was...

Spoiler for Graysong's Dream:

I was lucid, but perhaps only in knowing I was dreaming; my mind's clarity was for wanting.

I was walking the halls of the school of younger days, which was more or less deserted. I could see a door to the outside down a lengthy hallway. It seemed to be night, but an orange glow lit the walkway outside, presumably from a street lamp.

I entered a classroom, and found it to bear a number of my friends and acquaintances. They stood around desks, making idle conversation. Striding across the room, I now became fully aware of my dream state. Still a bit hazy, I struggled to recall the Task. I remembered the Basic Task, but could not invoke the Advanced, my goal. I questioned this of a nearby DC, who, if I remember correctly, informed me of last month's Task. After long enough, however, I grasped the Task.

Walking to a counter nearby, I observed a number of crude sketches on loose leaf paper. One resembled what I now realize was the 'Gingerbread Man.' I gestured at this paper, at which point the creature lifted itself from the paper on which it was created. He stumbled a few feet, looked about at his now very confused audience, before performing a daring feat of acrobatics by leaping from the counter, swinging around several surfaces, and scrambling out the door.

From this point onward, the dream is relatively uneventful, so I will close this entry.

As usual, I wrapped the dream in 'Spoiler Tags' for the sake of others viewing the page.

Congrats TimeStopper and Graysong, I'll go get your wings.

lol I didn't know what I was doing hitting myself with that guitar

Meh, on a dry spell. Haven't been able to attempt the task. *mumbles*
