Thread: Task of the Month for February 2009

Well, I completed at least one of the tasks, if not both, so I'm looking forward to the badges being fixed!

I was in the Aperture Science Testing Facility from Portal again, and remembered to try and find Clairity and give her a hug. I was woken up by my alarm, but it was an early alarm, so I could try to WILD (or, as it turned out, DEILD).

She finished up the speech, and after everyone else left went back through the chairs (there were only two rows in the room, and I was standing at the back, so she only had to climb between one row of chairs) and asked me how the speech went. I said it was great, and congratulated her on being the hottest young senator since Robin DeSantos (which, even though you have no idea who she is unless you read the Walkyverse comics and who is fictionally in the House of Representatives, is a really good compliment to be compared to her. Especially considering that she has recently been shown to smell like Skittles candies, which I still find awesome. Clairity understood what I meant). She leaned over the back row of chairs and gave me a big hug, which was kind of weird considering the slope of the room and the difference in height.

I was taller, not her. I’m probably the first person not to dream “tall Clairity”. Anyway, that’s when it got [spoilered] for adult content. And if that didn’t count, since it’s “hug Clairity” and not “hug or be hugged by Clairity,” I did hug her at least once, and probably several times depending on what you consider hugging.
Yeah, Clairity, I am really glad you and your husband have a “cheating doesn’t happen in dreams” rule. Even though it wasn’t actually your dream.

The other task I may have completed, I was able to summon Cupid’s Bow (or a bow with the same powers), but I never actually stole it.

Then time skipped back again before she could reach us.

And I just realized that she looked like Riza when she was working for Bradley, only with her hair like Trisha Elric’s. That was why she "looked like Riza, only, not."

So, I know I completed the “Hug Clairity” task, but I’m not sure on the “Steal Cupid’s Bow” task. I’m pretty sure I completed it, but not 100% sure.

YAY.. I was a hot young senator in your dream!

You did look just like you profile pic (but less glossy). Coolness.

Right. That part of the task, totally completed. And no quotes around "hugged" were necessary

Naughty dream is naughty

Cupid gets some of his own medicine. (odd story)

This took place at the end of a LD that was about the 4th in a series of DEILDs covering the same basic plot line, so I'll just go over briefly over that before getting to the relevant part as they aren't really related. (Also I'm bad and don't ever keep a dream journal )

The LD lead in was basically me on the run from some agency for having various un-natural powers and using them (various dream powers) I had used my abilities to take control of and kill one of the programs agents (also with powers) by using my greater abilities to lock hers down before killing her, causing them to come after me.

I fled through various cities, opening portals from place to place while being followed all the while. After taking out my pursuers many times I finally went to their headquarters to finish them off once and for all.

The HQ was actually modeled off portions of my house, and I made my way down the hallway to where our TV room is irl, which had their mainframe computers which I was going to destroy to finish them off.

After I had cleared the way to the computer I could feel the dream was about to come to an end, but still could hold it for a couple more minutes. All I needed to do to finish the scenario was to hit a button on the computer, so I was trying to think of something I could do for the next couple minutes to test my abilities.

The first thing that came to mind was; "Hey, lets see if I can summon cupid and complete the DV task." So with that decided, I called out for cupid to appear, turned around, and there he was standing on the stairs behind me. He was probably just over 2ft tall, and looked almost exactly like the goat many from the Disney animated Hercules movie. (Bottom half like the back half of a goat) He was holding his little bow & the arrows had little hearts on the tips.

I called out for his bow to summon it from him, then took it and started shooting it at him repeatedly as he ran away up the stairs. When he got to the top and hid in a corner he had 3 or four arrows sticking out of him in various directions. He then vanished & I could really feel myself starting to leave the dream so I dropped the bow, ran back into the room, and hit the button on the computer to destroy the agency just as the dream ended & I awoke.

Ok, yeah so that was weird and cupid wasn't actually connected to the main theme of the dream what-so-ever besides me simply wanting to see if I could actually summon him while I had some time to kill. But hey, it was my 1st TotM that I'd done, so it works.

Nicely done.

No wings?

And I realized how that sounded when I logged out. I meant it depends on whether you count a hug as arms 70% around the other person, like hugging someone with flour or dirt on your hands, or if itr was minimum 100%, wheter hug should have been singular or plural.

I accept if I still have to do the Steal Cupid's Bow task, but I know I completed the basic task.
