Last night I dreamed that I was taking tests in high school, and after they were done I was heading out, but I got stopped by this little old lady who asked if I could help get her and her friends to the auditorium. So I ended up walking four little old ladies (the one who stopped me was in a wheelchair; a second was using a walker, the third was slow, and the fourth was spry) around for a while. Turns out that unlike in my actual high school, this one's auditorium was across the street. I got them to the side of the road and then helped the one in the wheelchair across. When I got back I discovered that the spry one had gone missing; when I asked, one of the others said she "went to the bathroom" and just never came back. (I never found her.)

 

The dream fast forwarded to me getting home (where I grew up, rather than my new apartment) with Tara. After a bit more of a time skip she was heading home and I asked if she was walking, to which she replied "not if you give me a ride..." So I agreed to despite (or more likely, because) of the torrential downpour that had been happening for hours. We slogged through the water (which was flooding) to get to my car. She was able to hop in but I needed to swim a bit. The water was up to my hips at one point. 

 

Rather than taking her home, turns out she'd left something at school so I took her back there. We began walking through the empty building, where I discovered that it was flooded in the basement. We slogged through more and more water and finally made it to a classroom in the basement where music had been playing; turns out she'd left a cassette tape. So she grabbed that and we were able to swim back out (ps it was shady as hell in here) but then this guy showed up and he was some bad guy who basically told me that I had to solve a puzzle or the world would flood. 

 

So I began looking at it but couldn't make heads or tails of it. He said one person could help me and this random girl (I recognized her and knew her, but I can't remember who she was anymore) offered to help. Because I trusted her I said okay, and she picked out this math problem among all the puzzle options. It involved transposing graph lines and she insisted it would be super easy because of some clues that were suddenly written on the blackboard. Before I could say anything, she told the bad guy that was the one we'd be doing (which was terrible because it looked like total gibberish to me, just like all the rest). Through all this the guy had been gloating about trust and betrayals and something he said made me realize that my trust in this girl was misplaced, but it was too late. She'd said which we were doing and he started laughing and when I accused her of betraying me, she just smirked as well and didn't deny it.

Wow so you in turn destroyed the world? The last part of your dream would make a decent movie. That just shows you, never trust a pretty face.

i was in town, trying to find a place to have breakfast. i walked down the main street, which was oddly deserted. there were signs of people having been there, but not anymore. all the stores were closed, and the only building i could get into was some sort of place with a lot of large rectangular water tanks, and pipes pumping it all from place to place. 

 

suddenly, i noticed everyone was magically there. this was some kind of health club, where everything was done in scuba gear. people were playing badminton in a huge fish tank in scuba getups, while other people were getting massages. i walked around a bit, and went down some stairs. in the basement was a submarine port, with an infinitely dark, and deep pool. since everyone in my dreamworld must travel by submarine, and since i've had bad drowning dreams involving submarines, i walked back upstairs. outside, it was sunny, but raining at the same time. i walked to some bagel place that was in a long rectangular store, and started home. 

 

home involved walking up a sidewalk that lead into this huge globe, where homes stuck to their foundations on the inside like there was no gravity. it was like crazy stairs, but a culdesac.

I was a leader of some kind, I only began to help leading cause I saw another man begin to lead by the opposite door they were trying to round a bunch of people up from some restaurant. I heard him start to yell about standing your ground and not letting them take us without a fight so I lifted up my voice to join his on my side of the restaurant just in time to see a large militia type group forcing their way in trying to round us up and we fought. We fought without weapons all the while they had theirs and I would occasionally glance back at the other door to make sure the other man is inspiring his men to hold. He was. We each ended up fighting our own sides back but then he dissapeared into the crowd.I didn't see him again till much later.

This was the first time I had stood to lead despite me only following a cue from another person. But it awakened something in me, I had become this leader. I was always trying to inspire. Cut to us marching through the woods, I know we are captured somehow even though I don't remember being captured, and I start to lift up my voice again, this time no-one is having any of it, long story short I end up trampled and wind up in chains being dragged along behind this army of slaves. I was a prisoner for a long time, I couldn't tell you how long before finally having a chance to escape, I took my chance. I was almost killed again in the process but I was free. Then I started searching, I started searching for someone, anyone who would stand with me against this army of slaves takers and murderers. I end up recruiting and recruiting before finally running back into the man who I saw guarding the other door back in the restaurant. He seemed to be a part of my army and I was giving another speach to inspire, we must be heading into battle and I hear a boy ask him, "why do we lead", in relation to me and this man. And he said something along the lines of, "because strong men must guide people into doing what's right like the cutlery at a kitchen table." This made me angry and I started to snap at him and was armed with a metaphor of my own, I said back loudly enough, "no, we are more like the nozzle at the end of a hose, we can only point or people in the right direction and hope they will listen because leaders often get themselves tangled in their policies and when a hose gets tangled little to none of the water will obey. It is the water that is what is powerful, it is the water that can overcome anything, can take any form and with enough time erode anything. All we can do as leaders Is point the hose nozzle in the right direction and hope we haven't become too tangled for the water to listen."

Or something along those lines, then I woke up and wanted to write it down.

i now live on the third floor of a building with lofts. my neighbors are all dealers, and some kid just bought a shopping bag full of bud. i walked down the stairs to tell them the customer was really obvs about it, but i ended up stealing a pair of magick ice skates that work on any surface. i ice skated across varios terrain at super sonic speed™ and almost made it out of the country after stealing a 2009 pontiac aztek. yes, the city and all that, are inside a fenced perimeter, almost like it's some kind of larp jail along the mexican border.

[kspr]

definitely because of playing laser tag-

i had some type of rifle. i started out in the middle of a rainforest, and made my way theough with my squad to a compound that looked like a movie studio. we could see armed guys along the perimeter, and took them out one by one on our way there. (i kept shooting this kid at tag, but he just stood there and mashed the trigger and we kept killing each either)

at the studio, i got separated, and had to crawl so they wouldn't see me. i noticed the buildings were on posts, and the ground was covered in small rocks like a playground, i started to crawl, and dig in the rocks to be able to crawl under the building. i could see boots on the ground all running around the building, and i knew i was the only one left. i heard a quacking noise, and they all saw me. but it was my alarm. talk about a close shave.

Puffin, Stars, SHE, and I were making plans to go to a convention. And my dream ended up being a jumble of us planning to get there, people oversleeping, walking for a bit, driving, picking up trash while waiting (multiple times because the bag kept breaking), and, when we finally got there, the convention being super weird.

 

Like, while I was listening to the main guy, people kept getting up and walking out because he was a jerk and totally inappropriate. And I remember trying really hard to write a facebook status about it (and waking up in the process).

 

All I know is I'm awake and just as exhausted as when I went to bed. Hm. Must have been a more active dream than I remember.

[kspr]

do your dreams have nonessential background characters?

i fought a batlike skyrim dragon in the middle of the city, near the bigfoot cave. it was the size of a minivan, and shot deep orange flames that were dark brown at the tips. i had no armor, no weapons, and was using cars and buildings as cover. i couldn't find anything to defend myself with, so i just kept running and hiding. then i woke up.

dreamt i was standing in line for a concert and was freaking out about not getting a tshirt that was supposed to come with the ticket...

i lived in a small one bedroom apartment. the kitchen had back and white tile, and a plastic ikea table that was round, with a thin neck. it was yellow. my mission- to help someone i don't really care for and who lives all the way across town pack their shit and move.

step 1: sit at home for four hours ignoring them before finally acknowledging theit txt, and leaving.
step 2: forget what my car looked like because this is a dream, and i don't have my default world car.
step3: for some reason i'm still in highschool, and went back to dreamworld highschool for the second time. there i receive a new locker, with a key lock, which caused me to mechanincally forget the combination to my old locker (43-82-26) i panicked in-dream, and eventually gave up trying to remember and left.
step 4: i left school, and drove somewhere to eat. i accidentally drove into the employee entrance to an airport because the driveway to the 7/11 was right next to it. the 7/11 is inexplicably a long dark basement hallway, and im waiting in line for three hours before i realize the line is for a chipotle. i leave hungry.
step 5: realize i needed a going away present for this person i don't care for. it doesn't have to be a good one, so i stop at this shopping center (visit #3) to find a pokemon game for a system i know theu don't have.
steo 6: i finally drive to their apartment, and they're already moved in, and eating pancakes under a single lightbulb. i throw the game into an open window and yell something.

then i woke up. i've done this sort of thing before. i had a dream i was trying to return a notebook to someone i had never met, and did everything "but" return it.

i was running through some trees, and up a hill. i don't know what i was looking for, but at the top of the hill i found an old wizard. he showed me how to transform into a huge bat made of fire. i could only turn into a normal sized bat not made of fire, so the wizard told me to fire a couple shots from my wizard staff off towards the clouds to fill up my meter. i shot off a few magic missiles, and an enormous red dragon flew from behind the clouds, and landed right there to attack us. i turned into a fire bat, and flew really far. i saw an office building surrounded by a razor wire fence, and flew up to the roof. i got inside, and started to find wicker baskets full of items everywhere. one of the baskets had a plastic grappling hook that i really needed, but it was some kid's toy, and she wouldn't let me. i argued with her, and just stole the basket and ran away.

I was waking up and my girlfriend was in my apartment. As I get up, there is a flash of light and a loud roar. All of the electronics go out. I know what this means: a nuke has detonated in Wichita. I rush around the house and gather all my gear, MREs, gold and silver, and weapons. I have my girlfriend start running stuff down to the car while I pack my backpack and start strapping on my tactical pants, combat boots, tactical shirt, kevlar, combat armor, etc. Once I'm done and start heading down, I find a rather distraught girl on my stairs. My girlfriend and I take her with us. We head to a local gun shop with our hands up. I say: "The country is about to get really crazy and I'd like to defend myself. My debit card will not work nor will your ATF check system. I'd like a two-point sling equipped 8-shot 12 gauge shotgun, a model 629 with laser sighted for my girlfriend, a silencer for an M4, a Beretta 9mm for the other girl, and the highest caliber long-range scoped and sighted rifle you have, all with ammunition of course. Once this is all over, I promise I will return the weapons and reimburse you for all of the ammunition and compensate you for the use of the weapons. Do we have a deal?" The owners stand there for a while and finally say: "Sure, but we're coming with you." So, we strap up and roll out. We all head to the nearest wal-mart which is deserted and start filling everyones' ammo cans. Finally, we get the Hell out of Dodge and head north through city streets to avoid the riot-geared police checkpoints on the freeways. Once at the edge of town, we take a couple back roads and get onto highways 54. From there we go to Sterling, Kansas. We find Ryan Carlson(toku49), his family, Jim Groegan, and start caravaning toward Austin, Texas to join the militia gathering there. Now, this is where the dream stops, but I can tell you exactly what we'd do next. Once the troops are rallied, we'd start spreading north to take strategic points such as Albuquerque (to fetch Gary Johnson) and the Ozarks (which provides a wondrous drone and tank defense). We'd then attempt to set up cells in Utah, Montana, Louisiana, Tennessee, Southwestern New York, and at various points along the US border in Canada. Having those established, we should be able to engage UN, US, and NATO forces in the District of Criminals, Cheyenne Mountain, California, and hopefully the Globalists' compounds in Philadelphia, New York, etc.

Don't be silly. We all know that if a nuke went off in the U.S., Jack Bauer would save the day.

i was walking along a really high up bridge that spanned The Highway as i was going home. the hometown nba team mustve won something because the roads were packed and news choppers were out. i look over the side at traffic, and i notice these two kids fighting down by a safety access tunnel right next to the intrafficed cars. one of them flings open a car door, steals a full laundry basket, and they both run away through the tunnel.

There were so many off things about my dream last night that I'm surprised I didn't think twice of it while sleeping.

 

In my dream, my parents randomly moved my grandma to a new place. I think we moved my aunt along with her, but at the same time I'm also pretty sure she just came along for the ride. This place was HUGE - it had three floors (I actually confirmed with my mom in-dream that "she owns the upstairs and the downstairs too?") and it's awful because my grandma...can't climb stairs. Which was how you got to the other floors. 

 

Grandma had already been moved in when the rest of us drove there (my grandma and aunt kept scolding my dad, but they were calling him a name that's not his - and they had called my uncle that as well). And when we got there I got to explore the place (did I mention huge?) and after I asked mom about upstairs and downstairs (my grandfather came out from the basement out of nowhere) I decided to try and get upstairs.

 

The second I made it up the stairs, a horde of Darkspawn attacked and I whipped out my bow and started firing off distance shots. I woke up just as an ogre noticed me and made its way up to attack me.
