Dream
I was in my house with my dad, it was dark and I was trying to show him something on a game called Age of Mythology: The Titans Expansion. I was pointing out how to win the game, you'd need a titan and that titans, being the strongest unit, end up deciding whether or not you win the game. He kept pissing me off because his hand kept touching mine and it was in the way. I told him to f off, he wasn't doing it one purpose but I didn't want to touch him. Everytime I try to show him the titans in the game (we're watching some cinematic intro thing) he misses the titan that appears. I finally get him to look and he sees it, before he was comparing it to some movie that had titans in it. They're doing epic stuff, I remember one belonging to the Egyptians and it was a sphinx I think. There was another that made a huge tidal wave, belonging to Poseidon. I was trying to get across to my dad that Oranos had the strongest titan due to an upgrade you can get which allows him to regenerate really fast and have more health + damage than other titans (this is a real thing in the game, I made a rule with my friend that we couldn't play him because it's just too OP -.-).

I'm walking down a street with my mom and there is a big river or a lake to the right of us, and there's a guard rail on the right of the path as if the path were for cars instead of people. There's a building on the lake/river that is on stilts so that it is half on and half off of the water (no doubt caused by seeing the Dock too much in Age of Mythology). There are some people jumping into the lake/river and swimming around. Then, I see a orange mermaid with a long tail and a white head with no face or hair swimming slowly along. It stands out so much from the water that it looks more like it's in front of the water than in it. I point it out to my mom and she says something like, "oh my gosh! It's a beautiful bronze mermaid!" And I say something like," well, It's probably just a projection. See? Now there's a dolphin." And indeed, now the mermaid has disappeared and in her place is a dolphin that is doing loopty-loops and stuff, and it also looks like it's in front of the water rather than in it. My mom and I continue along to this museum thing, ,where outside of it there is a shallow but large pool of water in glass walls. I point and say, "look! more projections!" because there is a dolphin and an orca that is only a little bigger than the dolphin, and they are really in the water and they are at the bottom of the pool right up against a corner of the glass close to us. Mom points out that these aren't projections this time, but prosthetics. I have to agree with her. (They looked kind of creepy, by the way, kind of tattered, and they didn't move, just kind of drifted with the water a bit)

We enter the museum thing and I don't remember much, except that it had a large replica of a sunken (or sinking, but very battered) ship, with a painting of how it must have been in real life behind it (sunken ships are one of my biggest fears). There were some equally creepy stuff, and I hold on to my mom and request her to take me out, which she begins doing, but then I wake up.

In another dream, I'm playing Age of Mythology. The map is this one big island, with a bunch of small islands dotted all around the ocean. I have a player on the big island, but the enemy has a type of mythical creature that headbutts a character and sends the character flying a long distance, so my character fell into the water. This happened a second time, but instead of falling into the water, he fell right onto a boat that was square-shaped and like a floating building, which took the character to one of the small floating islands which was apparently on my side, although I had no knowledge of it until then (actually, then was when I found out about all the floating islands). However, a little later, the enemy swarms all of my bases with too many enemies for me, and I don't have very many resources yet, so I'm losing badly.

Clara, Cage Club & The Colossus (Non-lucid)

NON-DREAM DREAM LUCID


I'm at the entrance to a club on my own, as my friends are already inside. I start talking to a girl in a queue and we go in together.

The club is huge, and 'decorated' with cage fences, chains and other metallic instruments; it's pretty cool and looks like something out of a post-apocalyptic movie.

I try to keep up with the girl I've just met while making our way through the crowd. She gets to the other side before me, and grabs a drink. She comes back towards me but stops at a pool table, where someone's setting up a game. She disrupts it by hitting a few balls aimlessly, before celebrating by singing Slipknot's Before I Forget into the pool cue. I watch, amused, and decide to approach her again.

We start talking and I learn her name is Clara, and it's going well until she tells me she feels ill. I ask if she's had too much to drink, but she hasn't, and I decide it must be from there being too many people in the club.

I escort her to the toilet, but not before she throws up on a few people. Everyone watches, assuming she's wasted and that I'm looking to score a drunk chick, but I find it quite amusing.

Contrary to the theme of the club, the toilets resemble large converted barns, and we explore various doors like excited children. We decide to leave, making our way through the now-empty club, my arm around her. We bump into her mum and baby brother, and walk home together.

While walking down hill along a road, I notice a colossus at the far end walking in our direction [I've been playing a bit of Age of Mythology recently] and the mum jokes that we won't have an easy time walking past it. I explain it's probably a bit more serious than that, and with that, the colossus begins to create a ball of energy in its hands.

I leap over a low wall to our left, urging the others to the same, and we sprint as fast as we can across a park. The colossus releases the ball of energy as a beam into some cars, obliterating them.

Running for our life, the other 3 overtake me, and all I can do is watch as the colossus gets them with a second beam of energy. I run to the mum first, who only has an injured foot.

Unfortunately, Clara isn't so lucky, and as I approach her, she turns over, revealing melted skin, deformed limbs and a lot of blood. [Such a nice dream took such a grim turn]

I run to a nearby public toilet for protection and to collect my thoughts. Once I've caught my breath, I venture out, sprinting to cover behind a low wall. The colossus is now a bus, operated by evil men who I overhear talking about destroying the whole area.

I make my final dash to an old mansion in the middle of the park, just as the doors are closing. I urgently bang on them, pleading for them to let me in, which they do. Just for the end of the dream I notice the skin of the men that let me in, peeling after a short exposure to the colossus' energy.
