~~~Attempting to Heal TG and Making an Acquaintance~~~
I was lucid from the start in this one. I don't know if that's just becasue I was really determined to become lucid as I fell asleep, or something else. Same result either way, I suppose.
It started in school. I was in the hallway that led down to the library, and there was nobody there except me. I started walking. It sounded like there was someone else behind me, but when I looked there wasn't anyone. I entered the library, which was also empty, and called, "TG?" (I wish he would tell me his name; 'TG' sounds weird.) Weird or not, he said, "Over here." He still sounded irritated, only it was even worse than last time. He was behind the librarian's desk, resting his head in his hands on the desk. There was a pile of books next to him, and I know I looked at them, but I don't remember the titles.
"Hey," I said. "What are you doing?"
"What does it look like I'm doing?" he snapped. I noticed the shadow around him was more prominent. I didn't respond to his question, but tried to think of some way to get rid of the dark energy. The song "We Are Broken" by Paramore came to mind, and even though I didn't know if the lyrics were really suitable for the situation, I think it's a pretty song so I started to hum the tune. The song began playing faintly in the background.
"We are..." I started, then trailed off. I didn't want to sing in front of TG. But then I reminded myself that it was to help TG, plus it was a dream, so if I wanted to sound good, I would. "We are broken, what must we do to restore, our innocence? And oh, the promise we adored? Give us life again, 'cause we just wanna be whole..." I stopped, because the music in the background had gotten louder and a pale gold light was surrounding TG and I. He said something, but I forget exactly what it was. I know he still sounded irked, though. My attempt at healing hadn't worked very well.
"Hey, that was pretty cool," someone said. I looked around, and a guy was standing in the entrance to the library. He had short dark brown hair, but that's all I can remember about how he looked.
"What do you want?" TG said angrily.
"Whoa, buddy. Calm yourself. I'm talking to the girl," the guy said. TG muttered something and smacked the pile of books over. "So," the guy continued, "what's your name?"
"Um... Taylor," I said. "But call me Red."
"Why?" he asked.
"Not important. What's your name?"
"Call me Tiger," he grinned, and held his hand out. I shook it and asked him if that was his real name. "No," he said.
"What's your real name?"
He grinned again. "Not important."
TG turned to us and said Tiger was a stupid name for a person. Tiger asked him what his great name was, then, and TG said, "I'm not about to tell you, dumb***."
"Jeez, these dream people can get fiesty," Tiger said. "No offense," he added at me.
"I... what? You know you're dreaming?" I wondered if he actually was another person, or just a DC acting smart. He seemed real. Then I realized that he thought I was a DC. "And I'm not a dream person," I said.
"Yeah, I know I'm dreaming! But you're not fake? You aren't just made up in my mind?"
"No, I'm perfectly real!"
"But then does that mean we're dreaming together? Is that even possible?" Tiger grinned wildy. "Is he real?" (looking at TG) "Is everyone here a real person? Can everyone know they're dreaming?"
"Calm down!" I said. "Yeah, I guess we're dreaming together if you really are a real person. And no, everyone here is not real. I guess some people could be. As for him"--I nodded towards TG--"I don't know about the extent of his existance, and he's got some dark energy crap so I'm not about to play 20 Questions with him. Your last question... If you mean does everyone have the ability to know they're dreaming, then yes. If you mean can we go tell everyone that they're dreaming, then heck no."
"I--we--this--how--," Tiger stuttered. He was overly excited.
"Shush," I said. The dream was starting to get fuzzy. "It's called lucid dreaming. If you want to meet up again, um... Can you make a portal?"
"Yeah."
"If you want to meet up again, just open a portal to find me. I don't know how they work; just say 'portal to Red' or something and I guess it'll go to me."
The dream faded away, and I heard TG mutter, "You could open a portal yourself if you had any skill."
~~~Mountain Climb~~~
Fragment. I was supposed to climb a mountain, but a guy came up next to me and said somehting about how it was really purple now that they had put the elevator in. (Purple? Lol.)

Whoo! I so happy with my recall on the first one! 
Inconsistent recall much.
