Mydera

My kids took a nap, and I decided to take one too since I still feel like I haven't caught up on the weeks missing sleep. I was thinking about this mornings dreams when I went to sleep, and that definitely influenced the nap dream.

The earliest point of the dream I can remember, I think I was lucid. I remember wanting to wear a different shirt and changing my shirt, then being attacked by something. I grew big black bat wings (one of my lucid goals, but since I can't say for certain I was lucid, I'm not going to count it) and started fighting back with a blade or scythe of some sort from the air. Then, if I was lucid, I lost my lucidity because I heard a woman's voice ask, "Shouldn't you help her?" and then a man's voice say, "No, she will be fine. This is something she needs to do herself." I dealt the final blow and collapse. From there I can only watch as my body floats suspend in nothingness, like a big white void of anything. Think the loading room in the matrix. Then I see a man walk up to me, and pick me up. I realize that it's Vesta who I was disappointed I didn't get to see in my last dream this morning. He carries me and walks, but because the room is a giant void it looks as if he's walking in place, going no where. The woman's voice asks if I am alright, and he replies to her, "She is absorbing the things she is fighting. She doesn't have the power to beat them of her own, so she has absorbed them and begun to take on their qualities in order to gain the strength she needs to defeat them. She has already absorbed their resilient skin." (or something like that, sounded so much cooler in the dream, lol) I find myself thinking the skin I have absorbed is covering my wings, and they've turned red and scaly like a dragon instead of black and soft like a bat. Then the woman asks if that is healthy, and he tells her he doesn't know because he has never seen anyone do that with "them" (I kind of gather in the dream that whatever "they" are they are something I and I guess my dream characters, have never really dreamed of before and there fore do not know how to handle. Then the woman says something else that I can't remember because everything was getting really fuzzy and hazy like I was losing that third person consciousness and being sucked back into the body in Vesta's arms. I felt rather than saw, myself being set down, and then I opened my eyes and I was lying on water. I sit up, and look around, noticing that I'm in the middle of a pond at the park now, and that Vesta and the woman were no where to be found. I see a bench ahead, and think I see a friend sitting on it. I'm back to being completely dream stupid and not thinking hey, it's weird I'm sitting on water! And decide to pull out my phone and call the friend I think I see to ask her if we were supposed to meet at this park. She answers and says yes, so I tell her I am already there in the water behind her. I put up the phone and drop into the water, then swim over to the bench on the shore. As I'm climbing out of the pond I wake up. I found myself thinking that I had a really important dream and I needed to remember it, but as much as I wanted to it kept slipping away and I could literally feel myself panicking to stay awake and remember while my body was like, "Mphf, I'm comfy go back to sleep." Luckily my little boy came back into the bedroom to find me because he didn't know I had taken a nap too. If he hadn't woke up and come back and given me a reason to force myself awake I wouldn't have remembered the dream at all! lol
