    1. Predator

      by , 09-26-2011 at 10:51 AM
      Keep in mind that I had just finished watching the film Predator before I went to sleep. Probably explains this one

      Me and a bunch of others were on the run from the Predator alien thing. We were in some kind of town, which was running just like usual. By day the thing wouldn't kill anyone but by night it at least tried to kill someone in the group I was with.

      We kept finding places to hide out at night. The thing always knew where we were - which building for example. So we had to find hiding places within the buildings we were hiding in - like hide and seek.
    2. Cruise ships and car thiefs.

      by , 09-26-2011 at 10:41 AM (Beautiful Picked Notes)
      So this time, I find myself on a cruise ship along with a lot of people I know from school. On deck, I set next to my girlfriend and we talk about some of the other guests until we spot a girl that has a comically oversized nose, to which I refer as a "jew-nose".
      It turns out that the ship we're on is actually getting towed along by a huge oil tanker and when we stop in (at that point) open water, I get up to look around. To three sides there is an extremely artificial looking beach, to the last side there's a wall. We're indoors now, the two huge ships are still there. Someone gets up on a podium and starts announcing the three most retarded things people have done onboard and while I don't remember the runners-up, my "jew-nose" thing got number one and I held a speech that was pretty much a mock. After the speech, I cannonball into the water with an enthusiastic scream, but get caught submerged because I suddenly wear a heavy coat that sucks itself full of liquid and gets too heavy for me to carrry up to the surface. I try getting it off, but the dream ends amidst my attempt.

      What I also do remember is a fragment of my dad walking around a parking garage, speaking dutch (!?) and stealing an Audi by help of a USB-Device. He gets in the car and drives away, but I still hear him clearly, saying how hard life was and how now he was the bad man for stealing, when he shouldn't be. I then get tempted heavily to steal my sister's bike and sell it. The alarm clock goes off, I awake.

    3. 37th shared dreaming attempt - Floatinghead

      by , 09-26-2011 at 08:57 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Pajama Party

      (this dream happened in the first couple of hours of sleep)

      I am with an old friend, we are in somekind of a shop in the middle of a shopping mall. I think we are taking part in somekind of competition. We are wearing pajamas that we bought specifically for this occasion. Spotted tops and stripey bottoms - they look like old lady pajamas.

      I turn to him and say 'I bet they've never sold this many copies of the same pajamas in the same day before!'

      Showbiz school

      I'm back at school, though it's crossed between my old work place. I'm finishing off the day by running some molds and casts for this horror movie that the school is producing. Nick Dudman (head of the creature effects department) is talking to another teacher about how they will be creating the sound of the creature's growl. And then continue to discuss the names that will be put into the end credits at the end of the movie, and how they thought the head teacher was a pompous ass.

      As I walk out of the doors of the creature fx department and head back home the view switches to above - there are several different buildings to the school - all lit up in bright colors (it is night now), a friend next to me (an old neighbor who died years ago) tells me how the school started out with just the front building hear (focuses in on that building - it looks derelict now and old) he continues to say that my older sister went into the school when it was just starting out. The buildings from above look like miniatures created for a movie.

      Star Wars light Sabers
      I'm watching a documentary about how they will be using the classic effects of how they created the light sabers for the new clone wars series. They will be getting real people and then motion capture just the light sabers to make it look more authentic. I then have a false awakening, I know what I just had is a dream but have a false memory of my brother in law telling me the same thing so assume it is true.

      Higgins
      Dream about my dead cat - he is a grey fluffy persian cat, he looks perfectly fine and I am confused cause I thought he was dead.

      CSI - New Arley
      I am at a friends house - she is explaining to me that the village has just had a famous CSI agent move in - Horatio Cane, and that the village has had a zero crime rate since he has been around.

      Teeth

      I'm working a job in and office/lab. I walk over to a guy sitting at a large computer (it is my sister's partner) and ask him if I can borrow something from him - a small device (I can't remember what it does) A guy enters the office, he has a wierd virus and needs our help. It turns out that me and this other guy are the best people for the job, so I grab a pair of earphones - I need to use these to take a reading. I call the guy over to my desk and look at his face.

      His teeth look crazy - he has a whole complete second set of teeth growing behind his first set, and behind the second set is the start of the third set. He looks like something from a horror movie.

      'why are you not freaked out by me?' he says 'I look like something from a horror movie'

      'I'm not freaked out because I had to deal with a very similar case last year - now hold still'

      This is tricky, I need to dangle the pair of earphones down his throat and let the noise from the earphones vibrate and send me back a sonar image, but there doesn't seem to be much room left to dangle the earphones...

      The inside of the mouth then turns into a typical 'skin' of a dragon



      And I'm trying to work out how tocreate a 3d color print of this model.

      I don't remember much of this. But I had a dream about belonging to a group that had robots/androids as slaves. I was the outcast of the group. I found it quite hard to take care of myself. My android helped me so much. Because of that, the two of a us formed a very special friendship that no one else in the group understood (Or else they sneered at!)!

    6. Transformers:Robots In Disguise

      by , 09-26-2011 at 08:20 AM
      Wow lots of Transformers dreams...

      Dream 1

      I was War For Cybertron Optimus Prime and my mate was Bumblebee he had a fight with some kind of crab transformer its face looked a bit like Armada Thrust. We chased him up onto roofs and my friend really didi some damage to him.

      Dream 2

      Now we're in college and our forms keep swtiching from robot to our normal human selves. We tried to find out the name of that guy but he couldn't remember. I could but I've forgotten it. Anyway we went to lesson and when that finished I went to the library.
    7. Dreaming for 45 Minutes!

      [COLOR="blue"]Dream[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="silver"]Thoughts[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="lightblue"]Hypnagogic[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="silver"]
      My school starts late today, so I asked my dad if he could wake me up before he went to work.
      He woke me up 7.15 and he set my alarmclock to wake me up 8.00 so I didn't overslept.
      It should be added that before my dad woke me up I had used the timer method, so I had had like 12 small awakenings or WBTBs. But after my dad had left, I fell asleep again.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="blue"]I saw a steel door, I opened it and saw a stair I went down through the stairs and now I saw a lot of shoes, and I immediately realised where I was. I where in my old taekwondo club, which is a basement.
      I went in there I noticed that there where a lot of people, and usually we only were are few. But now it was many teenagers like 10 boys and 12 girls, and this is a small taekwondo club. I was wearing jeans and a tee-shirt and I asked the trainer if it was ok that I joined the training with that. Then I saw that all the other were also wearing normal clothes, and the trainer told me yes. There were many hot girls there, and I got a feeling of me wanting to show of, in real life I have pracctised taekwondo for 8 years, and have a blackbelt so I should be able to impress newbies. Suddenly I see my classmate Martin running passed me, and I thought "hmm weird what is he doing here" and then I saw my friends Mattias and Johan. I wanted to impress them too so I did a wallflip and a sideflip, but then I woke up.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="silver"]I was aware of that I had woke up, so I lay still and just thought my way back to the same location again.[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="lightblue"]I started to see vague images of my previous dream, but then I was just standing there again.
      [/COLOR][COLOR="red"]This time however, I was lucid! This was my longest dream ever, but I lost my lucidity very soon, but not as fast as I usually do, so that's improvement.
      I saw my perception getting clearer and admired the vividness of the dream, and I looked at the new guys training.
      I wasn't lucid enough to understand that the people where dream characters, but I was lucid enough to understand that this was a dream and I can do what ever I want. I associated the taekwondo club with one person. A girl who once where my best friend, but i haven't seen her for a long time, since I quitted. I started to yell out her name "Nikita are you here?" and I heard a voice "Yeah I am in the other room." I said hey! and I hugged her. She sat in the clubs minigym and I thought oboy let's try to lift something really heavy. I thought to myself let's try benchpress. I thought that this is the truley oppurtunity to try to "free my mind", I grabbed the bar and it weighs 20kg/44 pounds so I tried to do that with one hand, it's not much I know but I am not that strong for real either :P But it felt completely normal, so I tried to imagine that the bar was made of styrofoam, and I felt that the bar was easier to lift! This was just a small test, but every little helps. But next time I think I will summon Morpheus instead to get the real training going.
      Then something embarrassing happen. The girl's mom came into the gym and gave me a friendly kiss, like the kiss small children gives to their moms, so not a passionate kiss, but still... and I lost my lucidity, although the dream kept going.[/COLOR]
      [COLOR="blue"]I went into the training area again, and I noticed that the trainer didn't know anything about taekwondo and I got angry, because I don't want him to embarrass this beautiful sport. So I told the guys, "Hey if I can do a sidewallflip on this wall, will you let me hold the training then?" They all seemed to be hating me, because I had stolen the attention from the girls. So they said "No, but do it anyway haha" I did but I didn't landed perfectly so I tripped and fell. They all laughed, but the girls were still impressed so it was worth it hehe.
      I went out from the training and walked to the entrance, where the dream had started out, I remember that I head a baby scream and some girls talking french, then I woke up.[/COLOR]

      [COLOR="silver"]I woke up from the alarm my dad had set. So the clock was now 08.00 and I had dreamt non stop! So that makes it a 45 minute dream. It's possible that I don't remember some blackouts or what ever, but I was very aware the whole time so that's not very likely, too bad that this wasn't a 45 minute lucid dream though :cheeky:

      And oh if you wonder why I dare to write these private dreams, with names and so on, it's because this is nothing compared what our minds really WANT to dream, and you guys also dream these things, I promise :D[/COLOR]

    8. 36th Shared Dreaming Attempt - Evolventity's Dream

      by , 09-26-2011 at 07:15 AM (International Oneironaut Shared Dreaming Journal)
      Evolventity's Dream
      September 25, 2011

      Non-Lucid Dream. Fell asleep by 8AM, and woke up at 4PM.
      -I'm with another male and female in a crowded, dim-lit, spacious building. It seems like a party. We are shape shifters. The man usually transforms into a blue creature (beast) like in X-Men and the woman can transform into a male super hero with white glowing eyes and stereotypical masculine features. While walking, we realize their ability is defective in that their shape shifter form is reversed and they can't turn back to human. We're being chased by government authority, a bitter middle-aged woman in a skirt dress being the leader. She points to us. The beast runs at her and punches the bitch in the face. The other shape shifter had come from behind her to attack as well, and 'he' is also hit by the beast. His ribs are cracked and he is lifeless. To heal and bring him back to life, a passionate kiss is given to him by the other shape shifter. Everyone watches in awe.

      -I'm walking between desks. I'm in another dimly-lit building, this time like a classroom, or a library, and people are studying books on their desks. My friend K*G* is here...with weed. She gives it to me along with the bong to help everyone get high. Of course, I don't smoke any myself, and try not to breathe any smoke. (Skip) I'm in the bedroom with a M* who is laying on the bed, and I sitting on top of him. I'm giving him the bong to smoke, while covering my mouth. I want him to relax. The cops knock at the door. I hide the weed in a secret compartment on the side of a wooden TV stand against the wall. I put the bong back inside my dresser.

      -I'm with Jennifer on a guys porch. We're digging through his stuff looking for weed. We're waiting for him to answer the door but he doesn't answer. Eventually he appears, walking up the steps with groceries, just coming home. The door is already open, and we wonder how; there must be a person already here. A secret lover? I walk in and see an old friend Z* who is in a towel after taking a shower. She looks a bit down and skittish. I tell her how she made my black suit that I'm wearing a shade lighter by hugging me with water while taking a shower.
    9. I morph into the God Phoenix!

      Morph into the God Phoenix! (MILD)

      NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID

      I woke up in the early morning and told myself I wanted to have a nice lucid dream.

      I was walking in a big field. I was away from home and from the busy civilization.

      I turned lucid spontaneously. The dream went crystal clear. As usual, I took a flight to make sure the dream was stable. It was a very hot day and the sky was dark blue. Not one single cloud. I could feel the heat from the sun beams in my face... I really enjoyed this flight until I saw a young dark haired female DC.

      She approached at me and asked me to take a flight with her. We did take a flight, and suddenly, we appeared right in front of a castle. The castle looked medieval, so I figured we could have time traveled.

      As we approached the castle, the sky got darker, until it was night. The entrance of the castle had a regular door, instead of the huge hatches castles have. When we entered, I saw a big bazaar. There was a lot of stuff to sale, the aisles were very tight. But I did not focus on this. There was a battle going on within the gardens of the castle.

      I wanted to join the fight, but not in human form. I thought it would be cool if I morphed into a phoenix. I realized that morphing is not my big thing in a dream, and turning into a whole phoenix could be kind of hard.

      I visualized flames around me and wings. Suddenly, I saw myself as a phoenix. I was flying over the gardens. These had a big pool in the very middle and I could see my reflection.







      I then visualized fire coming out from my body into the soldiers. I saw right away all the soldiers runing in dispair. I could see they were in flames. I also saw how the gardens were burning down and even, some flames were in the pool, still burning.

      After a few minutes, I found myself running out of fire, but I could lit myself up again.

      A while later, when no more soldiers were running around, I found myself in my regular body.

      After that, I had some plot with a lady and trying to have sex, without lucidity, and with little recall from here.

      by , 09-26-2011 at 04:36 AM (Adventure to Lucidity)
      I wasn’t necessarily in a first person mode with this dream. Not sure how that happens.
      This one is comprised of a couple of dreams. First one, starts with a briefing like a mission briefing, there’s a woman there with men in suits. They are obviously from some form of agency of some kind, but it’s not clear if they are law enforcement. They explain a mission which I cannot remember, and they send a woman to tail/get info from/kill/sleep with a man. He has some kind of importance, and the details of her preparation of fuzzy, but I remember flashes of images that I can’t put words too. Finally he gets there, and she has many different objects, sticks, two katana, and ropes. The man is intrigued and seems to be expecting her. They begin their business and a pretty raunchy sex scene takes place. First he’s in control, taking her clothes off and then finally his own. He bends her over and they begin having sex until. Eventually she gets up and sits him on a chair, ties him up with his arms spread with the sticks. She places the katana between his back and the stick to make him stand up straight and uncomfortable. She then searches for something, finds what she needs, and takes the other katana and runs him through with it. Yeah strange, but I never remember being in the first person with any character. Never had a dream like that.

      The second dream takes place in a car. My dad drives down the high way, and my sister is sitting up front with him. We start talking about things we don’t like about this particular town. Apparently Courtney my girlfriend is there for work now, and there’s also a college there that paige is thinking about going too…But it’s a tiny, terrible, conservative college. I start explaining things I don’t like about this place and my dad gets frustrated with me. Thinks I’m too liberal when I started explaining that all the prejudice and hatred towards non Christian people is bad here. Also trying to get paige to not sell herself short and apply to a larger institution.

    11. Okay a handful of fragments.

      by , 09-26-2011 at 04:32 AM (MoSh's DJ: The Best Dream Journal in The Universe.)
      i miss my epic dreams... anyway.

      Pool

      I vaguely remember being in a pool with a girl i know... we are in the water leaning against the edge and making out.

      Why wasn't I lucid


      I was in a wierd dreamscape that was curved with gravity on the edge. so you could like walk on the side of it and not fall or upside down... that's how the gravity was. I am doing High jumps all over this structure, flying and then landing on one foot and then propelling off again. I land where there's a small place where people can stand. There's a woman that I recognize from my childhood. We wave at one another and then I propell off again to do more jumping.

      Getting back at her

      for some reason I am mad at the girl from the first dream. I'm sitting on a couch with nomad... the place is dark. not sure wierd party atmosphere maybe. And he's asking for the girls phone number because he wants to call her and fuck with her. I'm not sure why but I refuse.

      The dream speeds up to being in a wierd public place like a unisex bathroom. I am hanging off of this Tan girl. I am thinking remembering back that it's really nomad. We are trying to make the other girl jealous. I remember walking past her with me hanging on to the tan girl. The girl makes a point NOT to look at us but judging by her expression she clearly saw it.

    12. Band dream

      by , 09-26-2011 at 04:13 AM (This really is just gibberish don't read it)
      I was at some audition thing for piano and people were sporadically playing their instruments some coach was our band director. I remember fighting someone for who would go next in line to audition. The audition room was a big gray room. I was told I didnt practice enough. My mom passed Me with my Bb harmonica and I started playing a song. I think the song was the andy Griffith theme. Our band director said he was gonna quit teaching ball. There was another pianist who was playing a song as though she was reading a sheet music. It was a beginner song they told me only the beginners are playing. The scene where I was fighting for who was next in line also had a button to hear the person inside auditioning. We could already hear the person so when he pressed the button, it turned the sound off, so I told him to push it again. I saw someone walking with my piano. A black guy I think. And it was in a case I told him I would take it to my car. (for the record these are all directly copied and pasted from my actual dream journal, which is why these are all so disoriented in grammar)

    13. Dreams change - Forest nymphs and computer games

      by
      Hyu
      , 09-26-2011 at 04:11 AM (Hyu's Adventures)
      Continued from: Dreams change - A stay at an ice hotel on another world - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

      I can hear voices. They are very gentle voices whispering unknown names.
      I feel like I'm floating.
      Am I in SP? Am I dreaming? Am I dreaming within the dream?
      I try to open my eyes but I can't.
      I can't feel my eyes, in fact, I can't feel my body at all.
      But I remain calm, I'm not worried at all.
      I like the whispering voices, they are so calm.

      Once of the voices gradually becomes louder:

      "Wake up sleepy head!"

      Huh? what? My eyes finally open.
      Yuya is leaning over me.

      "You weren't kidding when you told me you were a deep sleeper."
      "How late is it? It feels way too early to get up."
      "Does it matter? You do realize that you're technically asleep anyways yes?"

      Huh?
      ... oh... OH!

      I get our of bed.

      "I forgot."
      "Of course... don't forget to breathe. "

      I don't get that she's making fun of me at first, and think about whether I have to breathe or not.
      As soon as I get out of bed I realize how cold it still is.
      I realize that I'm still in the same bedroom as before, but the thought is very vague and in the back of my head.

      I start rubbing my hands instinctively.

      "Cold?"
      "No... I'm... stabilizing?"
      "Does the dream seem unstable to you?"

      I can literally feel everything.

      "No."
      "Then stop rubbing your hands and let's do something productive, alright? "
      "Yes... how about we go somewhere... a bit less cold?"
      "It's an interesting experience for sure, but I think I've had enough of it."
      "Haha, alright, let's go to the other side of the planet, I think you're gonna prefer it over there."

      She does the bubble teleport trick again. I have no idea how it works, but it is very quick.

      We end up in a new location. It feels a bit dark at first, but my eyes quickly adapt.
      In fact I very quickly acquire the surreal version I've experienced quite a few times in my dreams.
      The landscape looks amazing!



      Everything is sort of dark, yet anything that emits light is so colorful and bright.
      The contrast between things is extreme.

      "There's a small village right over there."

      We're walking towards it slowly, I'm in no hurry.
      I really enjoy just being here. Everything is so beautiful,
      the temperature is just right, and there's a nice breeze of fresh air.

      I take a closer look at Yuya as we walk along this path, discussing random things.
      My vision is so good, I can see the pores on her skin.
      She's so beautiful...

      "Are you staring?"
      "Err... it's... for science!"
      "Haha... you monster. "

      The portal reference amuses me.

      We have to cross a bridge before entering.
      There's a few funny looking animals floating in the sky above the bridge.
      They all look like they belong in the sea rather than the sky, but they're interesting to look at nevertheless.



      Everything is so colorful. I really love it when I have this surreal vision.
      I should focus on it more often.

      We finally enter the village.
      It is inhabited by humanoids.
      I've met their kind before, they're very similar to humans, except they are in some kind of symbiosis with plants.
      You can see it very clearly if you look at their hair, because it's intermixed with plants growing out of their heads.
      It looks kinda cool. Some of them also have wings.



      We sit down at a bar out in the open. It's a really nice evening.
      I suddenly realize that even though I'm always intrigued and amazed by these alien creatures,
      I never actually talk to them.
      It's time to change that.
      There's a women sitting with us at the bar, why not talk to her?

      "Hey, I'm Hyu, nice to meet you!"

      Well, that might have been a bit formal.
      She looks at me curiously.

      "Hey! What species are you?"
      "I'm human."
      "Ooh, interesting! Spirit or dreamer?"
      "I'm dreaming."

      Oh wait, that's right. I AM dreaming.
      Well, I guess I haven't really forgotten, I just haven't thought about it for some time.

      "So, what do you do?"
      "What do you mean?"
      "In waking life, what do you do?"
      "I err..."

      Yuya looks at me funny.

      "He's programming computer games."
      "Oh, what's that?"

      I'm not sure how to explain, but I can feel Yuya's thoughts,
      which make it quite clear that all 3 of us could simply share our thoughts and
      my explanations would make perfect sense.

      So I proceed to explain what computer games are, and what programming them involves.
      I'm really surprised by how well she understands everything, she is super excited to hear
      about virtual games from another world.
      Yuya becomes rather interested as well and we end up discussing what I am currently working on.

      I talk about quadtree terrain, tesselation, atmospheric scattering, all sorts of things,
      and everything makes perfect sense to them.
      Even though I find some of the topics rather difficult, because they're rather new to me,
      I am able to explain everything perfectly.
      This is a lot more difficult in waking life.
      Explaining what a quadtree is, and why it's useful for terrain is usually enough to fuck with people's minds.

      Yuya and the other girl keep asking questions about computer games.
      I try to show both of them a few games by projecting memories of playing them into their minds.
      I end up showing them a few images from Portal, and they find the game concept amazing.
      Logic puzzles seem to be very popular in the dream world.

      After some time I feel the dream drifting away.
      That's really unfortunate, I'm enjoying myself a lot.
      I can't seem to prevent it by willpower though, and I'd feel stupid spinning around.

      "Aww... I'm waking up..."

      The words don't really leave my mouth, they just echo in my mind.
      I wake up...


      It's only after a few seconds that I realize how long this dream lasted.
      My mind must be playing tricks on me, because combined with the last dream,
      this felt like it lasted for at least half a day easily.
    14. Earth quake, Tsunam.. Volcano erupting.

      I had a dream I was standing in a tall building there were other people there none that I could recognize..
      I am standing there having I guess a conference because it was a huge office and we all were dressed in business clothes.. I feel the floor shake and look towards the window ..
      I see other buildings waving violently around and I look down seeing the floor was bending out of shape from the pressure.. I panic and everyone in the office huddles together and we are trying to find a way out.. the whole building tilts over and slams into the ground. We all are digging our way out..
      Scene switches and I am looking out the window I can see the open sea to my left and in front of me is a big mountain and a cliff to my right.. I look past these mountains and see more just behind them.. I smile it was a breathtaking view.. I turn to my right and see just as far as I could see a grey long mist hanging over the water.. it was lined on the horizon but it wasn't there before and I could see the dark shadow line take breaks but to show up seconds later.. I look down and see a beach but it was like a small beach inclosed by these tall mountains and cliff..
      I see an elderly man with a walker go towards the beach and move himself close to wet his feet.. I look to my right again and see a huge wave... it stood tall about the water.. green and blueish light baby colors.. I bang on the glass trying to get the man's attention but he couldn't hear me.. I the tide moved in and only when the first wave knocked him to the floor he realized what had happen and tried to escape but the waves slammed against him too strong and fast each getting more bigger and violent touching the sides of this cliff..
      He disappears and next I see this woman blonde hair and in a black tank looking frantically around.. I opened the window and told her to get out of there.. how the waves were violent.. she too ignores me and sure enough the waves slammed on her tossing her against the rocks.. it was horrible.. and sure enough the waves and sea engulfed the mountains..
      We were told to stay were we were.. and they put the news on I couldn't understand what the woman was saying there was no sound coming from the t.v. Some heavy set man walks over he is wearing a white dress suit and beige pants.. tells us in the room a Volcano in Hawaii erupted and cannot be stopped.. earthquakes and floods were happening all over. People started to cry..
      I woke up.
    15. Dreams change - A stay at an ice hotel on another world

      I neglected my online DJ quite a bit. :/
      I'll try to update it more regularly again.


      I'm walking around my room when I suddenly spot an owl sitting on the frame of a window leading outside.
      I get a déjà-vu feeling. This doesn't come as too much of a surprise though, this very thing happened today in waking life.

      (It did, I actually managed to film him for a minute or so. )


      I am dreaming.
      The owl flies away as I approach the window. That's kind of unfortunate, I wanted to pet it.
      Looking outside the window I notice that everything looks rather weird.
      For one, the colors are off, but the shapes of the trees don't seem to be correct either.
      Everything looks close to it's waking life counterpart, but at the same time, it couldn't be more different.

      This is kind of weird, and I decide to jump out of the window to investigate.
      I don't feel the impact of landing at all, the dream probably isn't very stable.
      I start rubbing my hands, to get some feeling into my dream body.
      As I do this I notice that the whole sky changes.
      Huh? this is odd.
      It suddenly starts to snow, even though there are no clouds in the sky, and it doesn't really feel that cold?

      Just as I think that, I can suddenly feel the icy breeze. What the heck?
      I decide to take my shirt off, to feel the cold even more strongly to hopefully further stabilize the dream.
      This has worked once in the past, it might work again.
      Unfortunately it doesn't really strengthen my senses though.
      I can still feel the coldness, but the feeling is quite dull.
      The colors aren't very vivid either, and rubbing my hands doesn't feel right.

      I turn around and notice that my house is gone.
      This dream isn't stable at all, this isn't working.
      I decide to try something I have thought of a few times.
      I will wake myself up, then try to DEILD and hopefully end up in a more stable dream.
      I close my eyes and wait for a bit, focusing on not opening my eyes.

      I wake up within seconds, and my eyes open just a tiny bit before I'm able to stop.
      After some light flashing, which I don't really think about, I seem to fall back asleep.


      I'm not entirely certain that I have begun dreaming yet, but I open my eyes anyways.
      Yep, definitely dreaming!
      I get up and rub my hands again, this time it feels much more realistic.
      Great! I summon my phoenix wings and teleport to Teraluna, hoping to meet up with Yuya.


      After meeting up we stroll over the local market, discussing random things.
      I end up telling her about the dream I had previous to this one.

      "Something has changed, my dreams feel different..."
      "How so?"
      "Colors for example. My dreams used to be dominated by cold colors, but they aren't anymore."
      "Then there's coldness, I have only recently started to experience dreams where I was cold."
      "Don't get me wrong, I don't dislike it at all, but for some reason it feels so weird."
      "Haha, don't worry about it, your perception can change over time, it's perfectly natural."

      "Yeah... if only the cold would feel remotely as enjoyable in waking life."
      "You really seem to enjoy it in dreams, you've mentioned it before."
      "Hey, wanna go visit the temple of ice on Twi'jur?"

      "Uuh... sure, why not?"

      I'm a bit worried that I won't make the transition to a new place without waking up.
      This dream has been going on for some time now.
      I try to suppress that thought though, it won't do me any good.

      Yuya performs some sort of trick to create a teleportation bubble.
      It's the first time I'm seeing it, she usually draws portals.


      We end up inside a big room, which reminds me of an hotel reception.
      I shiver from the cold... this place is completely made out of ice!



      I wonder if ice hotels look anything like this in waking life... well, probably not.
      We start walking up a spiral staircase, which is made out of ice as well.
      The ice is very clear and you can see through the stairs.
      My feet start hurting really bad from walking on the ice barefoot.
      It really burns. I wanted to ignore it at first, but it just becomes too painful over time.

      I decide to channel a tiny bit of energy into my feet, to heat them up.
      I can feel a tiny layer of ice melting under my feet, and the pain immediately goes away.

      "Try not to melt the whole place down, yes?"
      "Haha, no worries."

      Thinking about it, Yuya doesn't seem cold at all.
      We reach a higher level of the building we're in, which is a lot more lively than it was downstairs.
      There are different kind of humanoid creatures walking and flying around.
      I spot many fairy type creatures with ice wings.
      I'm assuming that they're the natural inhabitants of this place.



      We stop at some kind of shop... they're selling ice creams, sweet!
      It seems like you can only get a single scoop of ice cream at a time.
      Yuya and I both get one.
      She's sort of staring at me, waiting for me to eat my ice cream which I find a bit weird.
      I decide to do something funny and put the whole thing in my mouth with a single bite.

      "What... what are you doing?"

      I realize I can't swallow, it's too big.
      But I know just what to do, I channel some energy into my mouth, melting the ice cream, and swallow everything at once.
      It was still quite a bit colder than I anticipated though.
      I get a massive brain freeze, it hurts so much that my vision blacks out for a second.

      "Haha, what are you doing? You don't learn, do you?"
      "Nope. This is the correct way of eating ice cream, I insist! "


      We did something after that, but I cannot recall what it was.

      It's getting late and we're both tired.
      Fortunately this seems to be an hotel and we get a room for the night.
      To my disappointment, the bed is made out of ice as well.
      Sure, there are some cloth covers over it, but this is going to be a cold night.
      It's probably going to be uncomfortably hard as well.

      "I can't promise that I'm not going to melt through this during the night."
      "Haha, please don't do that, I don't want to drop into the room below us midnight."
      "That would be quite awkward... but insanely hilarious."
      "No doubt, I still suggest you keep your firey spells to a minimum."
      "Alright alright. "

      Sharing a bed doesn't feel uncomfortable anymore.
      I remember that it felt really awkward the first few times after I started inducing lucid dreams,
      but for some reason it abruptly stopped.
      I'm much more confident around Yuya, I like it.

      The bed isn't as uncomfortable and as cold as I thought it would be.
      Still, I'd prefer it do be warmer.
      My vision quickly starts blacking out.
      No wonder, it feels like this dream has lasted for hours, there's no way I can keep it up for longer...
