Dreams?

^^ I want to have this dream. O-O

I dreamed of being trapped in an evil, demon-y house that was filled with aliens, monsters, demons, ghosts, and lots and lots and lots of traps. And all the rooms were dark and I was stuck in there with some random dude that I don't even know and we were both trying to escape, but I woke up before we ever got out. I did save his life once, though! He was mostly saving my life, to be honest. xD

I had a dream about eggnog-flavored breakfast cereal. Science needs to get on that.

maaaaan I had some really fricked-up dreams this morning.  On the one hand, I dreamed there was something in the news about 16,000 kids getting killed and we all had to watch some kind of trippy animated TV special about it and I could not stop crying the entire time.  On the other hand, there was another part of the dream where I tried to buy vanilla yogurt, but when I opened it the next day there was some weird red stuff in it, and I peeled off the label to find another label printed on the other side with the actual flavor of the yogurt--something like "onion and black tea" or chili powder or something--and a profanity-filled notification from the yogurt company explaining that I had been pranked.

I woke up feeling really upset about the dead kids.  The yogurt, not so much.

Another Xenosaga 4 dream... it was a while since the last one... no details to share this time, sorry. I only remember beautiful glimpses of the characters in the highest of resolutions and some vague events
going on outside in space seen through the main window of a ship.

The first half of my dream started pretty normal. I was at a mall with a group of friends. I bought a Tales game and beat it in 30 minutes (which was kinda weird, since those games are usually pretty long). And then the dream morphed to a plot of a guy in his wife. He signed up for an email account and paid money for it, probably a scam. But then he just started...ironing stuff. Not normal ironing, but ironing stuff like a pancake. He did it to his laptop screen, eventually his wife's face (which she didn't notice until she waked up with a pancake face). And then he eventually ironed the entire North American content like a pancake (how? idk...). And then the last scene was him taking drugs with a bunch of money around him, like any of that was related. O_o

^ Omg that is an amazing dream, Jin.

The other night I had a dream where I woke up and found myself wearing six shirts and two pairs of pants. I figured I must have sleepwalked and put those all on somehow. XD I looked at myself in the mirror and thought, "Yes, these are all my clothes" when in reality I own none of those things I was wearing. It ended up that I had to go somewhere and didn't have time to get changed, so I went out like that. It seems to me that I went with my family to an alien spaceship (not sure if it was real or a set-up) and I kept trying to take selfies of myself so I could show people how ridiculous I looked with all those clothes on.

Also there was something about me being at a really messy house and using a toaster that was in a closet. I put toaster strudels in it and left for a bit, then came back to find they had been stolen. I was pretty mad. XD

I was at an elementary school acquaintance's house for what I could only guess was a birthday party. She had a different basement than I remember since it was huge. I was talking to someone else that is an acquaintance from high school. There was mentioning of "summer courses" at what I guess was university or something, and I walked upstairs and ran into one of my high school friend that didn't ruin my life and I was talking to her about the high school person that did ruin my life. She said that she felt bad for remaining such good friends with him, that she felt she was in the middle but always detested him for that thing he did to me.

I saw him in the distance with much shorter hair than I remember, eating pizza. I had my winter jacket on because it was supposed to be cold and took a slice but no plate, then supposedly was going to go outside.

I hate seeing this guy in my dreams and it kind of disturbs me that he would show up.

^ *hugs* I still have dreams about my ex-dad and stepmom from time to time. It's always really unpleasant and upsetting. I'm still not sure what purpose it could possibly serve, but maybe it's your mind's way of working through things with people who aren't in your life anymore? I dunno. :<



I had a dream where a bunch of really awkward uncomfortable stuff kept happening that was my fault, and I don't remember much of it except that random people were looking through my embarrassing old drawings and cassette tapes with my voice on them, I accidentally spit in someone's tea and had to brew them another one, and someone backed into my parked car while I wasn't even there, and then I started singing about how it was really my fault and I shouldn't be allowed to drive anymore. :| Oh, and apparently I had rewritten the beginning of a story I'm working on so that one of the main characters, who is a lesbian, was married to her arch-nemesis, who is a dude. It was wrong on every possible level. /terrible subconscious fanfiction

Double-posting again because I am a trash ouo

I had this kind of cute Xeno-dream the other night.  It was kind of like an alternate ending to XS2 where Sakura got better somehow and didn't die, so the end of the game was older!Sakura singing a duet version of Sweet Song with Shion.  Also there was a scene with all the main characters hanging out on a beach or something (probably not the Beach of Nothingness because it was more colorful), and Ziggy for some reason was wearing casual clothes?  Like he had on a regular shirt and a denim jacket (but still no pants, lol), kind of like this:

Spoiler:

Anyway, Ziggy was talking about how he liked to lie on the ground and stare at the sky for hours because it made him feel "calm," which I thought was kind of a suitably type 9 thing to say.

Then last night I dreamed I had applied for a job at this weird concept restaurant/gem shop where instead of having a walk-in fridge for their ingredients, they kept all the food hidden in little in-ground coolers around a vegetable garden in the yard adjacent to the building.  Inside was the actual kitchen and dining area and then a shop next to that where they sold crystals and stuff.  So I showed up for my first day at work and immediately got a weird impression from the people who worked there.  The owner was this uptight guy in his late 30s or 40s, but I didn't meet him right away.  I was training with a girl who worked in the kitchen, filling a bunch of refrigerated pans with salad ingredients.  So I started pulling bags of salad greens out of one of the coolers and dumping them in the pans, but then I realized I wasn't wearing food service gloves, so I grabbed some random plastic gloves off the counter and put them on.  The owner saw me and started yelling at me for wearing the wrong type of gloves.  For punishment, he made me dig up a random rock from the yard and then take it somewhere else to be cleaned and sorted.  I realized the whole place was like a military boot camp for its employees, and the owner and managers were deliberately trying to intimidate and punish the workers so we'd be more cooperative.  I wanted to quit, but then I thought, "It'll be better if I stick it out and learn some discipline."

But I thought I was going to get fired anyway. :E

I had a dream where I had like 9 birds and I carried them around on two arms. I had to hand feed them but then I got lazy and hung up some of their food sources so they could just nibble it from their cage. I remember there being two extremely large chickadees that escaped from the cage and sat on the little handlebar on my mom's oven. There was also this super miniature cockatiel (like pinky-sized) that was hiding by the table leg, and I thought I hurt it when I moved the table but it was fine? There was also a lovebird that really liked being held like a baby for some reason, and I think I liked that one the most. The dream started ending when I was thinking to myself that I wanted to return most of them. XD derp derp

^ That sounds really cute, actually. :v

So I just had the great granddaddy of all anxiety dreams.  Like, I had just moved back in with my ex-dad and stepmom (or was visiting for a while, or something involving having to stay at their house) and also I had to do some kind of standardized test thing that I had actually missed the day I was supposed to take it, and it was due by 11 PM the following day, so I was at my dad's house freaking out because I only had a few hours left to do the test.  And also my computer was malfunctioning.  At one point I went out to dinner at a Japanese restaurant with my granddad (ex-dad's dad), who ordered a bunch of things he couldn't pronounce, pronounced them embarrassingly wrong, and then got angry at the staff when they didn't understand what he was ordering.  So he started yelling at them and then demanded six espressos "to cope with the stress" he was having.

Six.  Espressos.

Haha your dreams pretty cute, Stitch, but i take it him being angry was a little unnerving xD [it wouldve been for me @@]

So my dream last night, was pretty blurry or spotty so I'll describe as much as I can.
First off, I was this evil queen with some mook minions or whatever right? There where tapestries on the walls depicting the races that were present and I wanted to conquer. There were Hob goblins i think, and three other races that I believe were elven archers, dwarves, and typical human warriors i believe. There was another tapestry of a race that were basically really colorful Naga like creatures that were called Tetzalcoatls [probably not even a word] but there were marble white variants called Quetzalcoatls [which I know is a thing, he's one of my favorite gods lol]. Umm... at one point I was talking to one of my minions, or maybe it was a prisoner, and i handed out a little indigo pot, with rising steam that looked like galaxies. "I now have a pot of honeyed... souls..."

I tried to sound domineering and cool, but yeah, that only worked so well.
Then, in my evil plans, i went out to do something. I was in this modern/contemporary building and I saw a sign on the ceiling that said PIZZA FOR KIDS and I went "HELL YEAH!" so I laughed evillishly and transformed into an evil kid form and ended up getting a chicken and eggplant sammich that looked flippin delicious thenotherstuffhappenedandiwokeup...

I get some pretty cool dreams that I tend to not remember... OTL

OMG, that sounds amazing (especially the Pizza for Kids subplot). X3

I had another really stressful dream that was like every nightmare scenario at once.  I think it started with me working at some nondescript temp job and leaving work early to stop at the convenience store where I used to work.  I was just trying to buy some gum or something out of a vending machine, but the machine got jammed and I didn't have enough cash.  I tried to pay by sticking unwrapped pieces of gum in the coin slot, but it just spit them back out.  Also for some reason my teeth started to hurt like I'd been putting pressure on them.  Later in the dream, my lower left front tooth (which is chipped in real life) got really loose and I knew it was going to fall out, so I tried to make it fall out faster so I could get to the dentist's office and have them replace it before they closed.

While I was fighting with the vending machine, one of my old supervisors came over and tried to get me to stay and fill in for him for a few hours, even though I technically didn't work there anymore.  I knew I had to get back to my other job and I really didn't want to stay, but I felt like I had no choice.  Eventually I just ordered a sandwich (coincidentally, it was also some kind of chicken sandwich, but with unnecessary amounts of red onion and barbecue sauce?) and left.

After that it got kind of jumbled, but I went to a party at a really fancy house I'd never been to before, and a lot of people who knew me but that I didn't recognize were there and kept coming up to talk to me.  My mom called to tell me there was this ultra-famous composer/orchestra director who had come to hang out with my brother and they were apparently talking about me, so I got really upset and said, "NO, NO, NO, NO, NO" a bunch of times because I was embarrassed at being a failure compared to my brother.  My mom said the famous dude sympathized with my being under-employed and starting out working at gas stations and stuff, but I didn't buy it.

The worst part, though, was that my ex-dad called me too, and showed up with my ex-stepmom and tried to be all friendly with me.  So I kind of reluctantly started talking to my dad again, but when my stepmom started bothering me I just kind of went "oh, yeah, that's nice," in a kind of fake-nice sarcastic voice and she started getting mad at me, which made me really upset and uncomfortable.  I left wherever the party was going on, walked over some smooth boulders that made me feel better for some reason, and then went back into the house and sat down in the hallway and started screaming because I was still angry about my stepmom trying to talk to me.

Sometimes, I make dreams that really freak me out.
One brand in particular (that kind of have sequels) : the one where I killed someone and hid the body and it's all about not drawing suspicion and getting caught. Goodness, the feeling is always horrible. Sickening. And so very real despite everything being just a dream.
It kind of reminds me of a certain episode from the tv show Charmed. The one where Prue makes a dream where she killed someone. Except the dream isn't just a dream, but her spirit having fun in shady bars while she sleeps.
Or, if I have to pick a Xeno game... Id killing people while Fei is asleep in Nortune is a similar kind of scenario.
Good thing our dreams are really just that... dreams. Because a few of mine terrify me.

I had a dream that my husband and I moved into my grandparents' old house after my grandpa died. We were trying to sort through all my grandpa's stuff that he'd left there so we could fix up the house (which is about 100 years old in real life, and in the dream it looked even older). There were entire rooms we couldn't go into because they were full of junk from the past 50+ years of my grandparents' lives.

Double post because I had the most ridiculously epic dream just now. @katimus_prime and I were going to see Beyonce performing at this fancy baroque-ish theater/opera house type of place, but the main area for the audience was sort of a huge net-like thing that went all the way along the front of the stage, like a really big trampoline that a lot of people could sit on.  So we basically had front row seats for the concert, and Beyonce was like ... RIGHT THERE. *w*

OMG, that sounds amazing!!! XDDD

I had a dream recently where I was helping program a VCR for a friend I recently reunited with. It was at their parents house, and we did it. :3

I've started having dreams about Xenoblade X. Oh boy...
The hype is getting to me. It happened with the first Xenoblade too (though, it was after having played the game). I had dreams about other video games in the past (Xenosaga, FF7... can't remember more right now). But it's not often.

^Heh, I know how that is. I've had tons of Xenosaga dreams. I remember some revolved around me going to a game store and finding copies of episode IV on shelves. Not cool, brain.

I dreamed that two of my friends died. It was pretty scary. I didn't see them die, I was just told. And then I was forbidden to go to their funerals for some reason. At first, I treated their deaths like it was a video game, saying something like, "I'll just reload the save data before they died." But then I couldn't and the sadness started to hit...which caused me to wake up. Sorry about that. Thankfully they are alive. It would be kind of horror-movie creepy if I told them about this dream (oh hey, I dreamed you died last night), so I'll just keep that info here. XD

^ Oh gosh, I know what that's like.  Those dreams are so disturbing.  I had one the other night that the sister of one of my childhood friends died from some weird medical condition, part of which involved (don't read if you're squeamish)

Spoiler:

But on a brighter note I HAD THE MOST AMAZING XENOSAGA DREAM JUST NOW.  Basically a group of fans had made a visual novel-style fan game around a pretty minor plot point that had never really been fully addressed in the series (actually it didn't really happen at all, but dream logic).  Something about MOMO having to talk to one of the other characters (I think it was Jin, oddly enough) and convince him of something, but it was written like a musical with all the important dialogue being sung by the voice actors.  And the music was AMAZING.  Like holy crap.  I wish I could have recorded it or something because the singer for MOMO had a gorgeous voice and the lyrics were great too.  There was also some rap music and chiptunes mixed into it, so it was pretty eclectic in a good way. |3

The only downside was I guess the fan game production team had spent most of their time and effort on the music, so the graphics were like clip art quality and sort of looked like obscure internet memes.  But that soundtrack, man.

i dreamed i was being tourmented by life.

A Xenogears/Saga related dream I had last night and made me a sad panda : I got to meet Joanne Hogg, told her that I loved her voice since the Xeno games (which made me discover Iona). Turned out she was a massive jerk . Why, brain ? WHY !? I'm sure she is a sweet lady for real. I wonder what is the opinion of Xeno fans who actually met her.

none i can remember lately but ive had some that i turn into a fan fiction or fiction short story. i have mine posted on da.

I had a dream last night involving my grandmother who died 10 years ago and two older ladies from a movie I just watched. I think my grandmother was at their house trying to make a recipe or something.

*shameless double-post* Ehh, I had one earlier this week where, like, whenever someone was mad at me, I would start yelling "IT'S MY FAULT!!!" while punching myself repeatedly in the stomach (I remember actually thinking in the dream that it was analogous to Kylo Ren hitting himself where he got injured at the end of Star Wars VII, lol).  At this rate I wouldn't be surprised if my dreams started resorting to literally beating me upside the head with heavy-handed metaphors that still don't make any damn sense.

I think I've been dreaming about the dog we had when I was growing up, too.  He was a golden retriever who died in 2010, but I had a dream he was back at the house I grew up in (I guess my family had moved back in, too, and my parents got un-divorced?) and the dog was actually 31 years old and had never died at all, he just went away somewhere for a while.  I remember meeting him in the driveway and being happy to see him, but in retrospect it was really kind of sad.

And then my mom's evil ex-boyfriend came back and made an excessively fancy recipe--he was one of those annoying food elitists who always had to make fancy crap and made fun of us for mispronouncing "pecan" or whatever. :/  So I asked him what was in the food because he used to cook with red meat a lot (which I don't eat) and not tell me, and then he'd make fun of me for asking.  He started listing off ingredients and then I woke up because I guess I just didn't care, lawlz.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
