    Asian Parent, a Unicycle, and Cerberus

    by , 12-22-2014 at 09:52 PM (790 Views)
    I was hanging out with Dreamer and one of her guy friends. They were sitting on the couch next to each other. Her friend was wearing this enormous hat - It looked like a smurf hat, except that it was bright blue. He started to talk about some hat game in minecraft where you could do something with hundreds of different hats.

    This Asian lady and her daughter appeared. The daughter was trying very hard to be American but she was uncomfortable because she felt as though she didn't fit in and she didn't understand the culture. The mom was yelling at her, telling her that she had to be better and to try harder and that she needed to change who she was in order to fit in and become rich. The daughter seemed really upset about being yelled at like this. I started to argue with her mom and tell her that it wasn't fair for her to put that kind of pressure on her daughter and that she should want her daughter to be happy. She shouldn't need her daughter to fit into a mold of standard conformity at the expense of her enjoyment of life.

    Dreamer's DC didn't like that I was telling her mom this stuff, she thought that it wasn't my place to say such things. I was quite upset.
    Dreamer's reaction didn't make sense to me, I thought that she would have agreed with me if anything.

    I realized I was dreaming at this point. So I walked outside, into the front yard, where I saw high a school kid riding around on a unicycle, but it had a steering wheel on it. I walked in front of him and got him to stop riding. I made him fly into the air and gently land on a soft, cushiony patch of grass on the other side of the street. I then jumped onto his unicycle and started to ride down the street with it. He chased after me and I let him catch up a little bit to mess with him, I was feeling a bit cruel I suppose. He kept getting really close to me but then he would get too tired from running and he would have to slow down. I kept cheering him on while telling him that this was great exercise for him. I'm so mean to DCs sometimes!

    We got to the end of the street and there was a giant crater in the middle of the road, maybe 100 feet deep and 50 feet in diameter. There were dead bodies littered all across the bottom of it. I jumped off the unicycle and sort of shielded the high school kid from the bloody scene. I could faintly see a semi-invisible figure lurking in the shadows. It became visible temporarily as it climbed out of the crater. It was Cerberus.

    I began charging up a bright pink laser from the palm of my hand and I patiently waited for the demon dog to attack. It appeared from out of the shadows once more and I unleashed the charged up laser right into the center of it's middle head, destroying it. The beast recoiled and fled. I Woke up.

      Congratulations on the lucid, AD! I'm impressed that you could ride a unicycle so easily in your lucid. I've never thought about this before but I have this feeling like I'd totally overthink this and make it way harder than it needs to be. Hmm, this makes me think that there's a whole genre of skills that I suck at or have never tried (juggling, unicycle, all that circus-y stuff) that I should go for in an LD!

      Quite a change in tone at the end of the dream, but really cool battle scene and great use of dream powers. It was nice that you shielded the de-unicycled kid from all of the gore.

      Nice dream, I need to go get caught up on your other LDs that I've missed! (I've read at least one and not commented yet)

      Thanks Canis!

      I'm really jealous of your dream journal responding skills, your replies are always so thoughtful and nice. I feel like I never know what to say, maybe you can give me tips on how you do that sometime.
      I wouldn't have normally fought that hellhound beast. I would usually run for the hills, that thing was scary looking! But I felt courageous because I felt like I had to protect that DC kid. Weird, huh.

      Oh man, what a nice thing to say! It's funny, a few days ago I was remembering how many thoughtful comments you were leaving in people's dream journals and how effortless it seemed for you! My advice would be to do them just like you do them today. Yours are positive, insightful, and come from the heart... can't ask for more than that!
