Thread: Task of the Month for August 2014

I tried the advanced tactic 1, of pulling an eyeball out, but ended up fulfilling basic task 1 instead (Ask a DC to tell you a word in a different language and its meaning), kinda. I don't know if this actually counts...

I don't remember much of this dream oddly enough. As usual, my dream companion the Kind Man and I were in an enclosed room together, alone. We were discussing a subject cordially, though I don't remember what it was. The Kind Man was laughing softly as we spoke. He poured us both cups of tea. I told him "hey, check this out" and I began to dig into my left eye with my right hand. The Kind Man abruptly stopped laughing and asked me what I was doing. When I didn't respond, he told me to stop. I remember really wanting to show him that I could do this, and thought it would be a funny prank. His tone got more panicked as I dug further into my eye socket, trying to pull my own eye out. I remember this being very difficult and taking a lot of effort on my part, also I didn't want to burst or damage the eyeball in any way so it was difficult with just my fingers.

The Kind Man's voice got more panicked as I did this, until he finally shouted something, something in a language that wasn't human. I don't remember what it was now, but it caused me to stop and lower my hand and look over at him. I opened my mouth to ask something, but I don't remember what. He answered in English, but I don't remember his answer. Then he put his hands on my shoulders and pressed his forehead against mine and told me I was being too trusting of humans and their games. He asked me- no, he made a statement to say I will not remember much of anything of this when I wake up. Then he told me that he had "kept me on this side" for long enough, and I promptly woke up.

Mind you, I actually don't know if this counts, so I won't apply for now...
