Bizarre dreams

[lokifan_import]

I dream vivid, complex dreams. I always have. I get episodic dreams - one night half the dream, one night the concluding half. I dream about original characters, and myself as one, rather than people I know - although this one slightly damaged that. I dream whole stories.

Now the latest one? That was bizarre.


I was in my house for part of it - which was Hogwarts, run by DEs and Umbridge. She was headmistress, sitting in state in my living room, and I was (quite literally) crawling around serving her. I can only assume that part of the dream was due to too much kinkfic! I'm looking at you, amanuensis and tuawahine. Though luckily, no sex with Umbridge. I mean, eww.

I was also still getting packages from livelongnmarry, including a huge hollow tube with little glass objects inside. I was reading books, and nicking them from Umbridge because she was the only one who had any. They were tiny books of the Bible and musty-smelling fantasy adventure, even though I'd have pegged Umbridge as the Danielle Steele type. Middle Sister was in the bit in the actual castle, rather than my house, and she was with the enemy!

Now we get into the really odd part. LJ and fandom still existed. iwantasda lived in Zimbabwe, and apparently Mugabe was in bed politically with Voldemort. (I'd like to apologise for my subconscious here. Since my subconscious clearly takes living under scary imaginary dictators seriously, judging by the perpetually scared, cloudy atmosphere, I hope it wasn't as dismissive of real suffering as it sounds.) Anyway, iwantasoda knew the wizards were keeping an eye on the internet but were no good with it. She'd been meeting up with other members of the resistance but that had been stopped, so she posted on a comm to say in code where they should meet, and hoping Voldemort wouldn't rumble her. Then she posted on her LJ to warn us she might be dead in twenty-four hours. It was all very scary. In a measure of the level of detail, I can still remember the other anti-Mugabe-and-Voldemort Resistance members she mentioned in the post. LJ names striep, bubblewrap, bobknife, alieone. Don't know if they're real!

I woke up before I found out whether iwantasoda made it.


I could share details of other bizarre dreams, but I think I've rambled enough. Let's talk dreams in general, shall we? Tell me about your scariest dreams, your funniest dreams, your sexiest dreams. Memorable dreams, for any reason. Or don't you remember dreams at all?

Oh, and iwantasoda? Please check in! I never dream about anyone but my immediate family and imaginary people. I am a little anxious. Yes, I know it makes no sense.

You, my friend, have some very strange dreams.

My worst dream - the one I used to have when my bf was in Iraq - was that he would get hurt, but no one would tell me, and it would only be weeks later that one of my friends would mention in in conversation. And when I freaked out over them not saying anything, my friend would just shrug and be all, "oh, we weren't sure if you'd want to know." I have issues, clearly.

Other than that, I don't dream much. Your dreams sound like a trip though. What exactly are you smoking, my dear?

I do indeed! Last night I dreamt I was a time-travelling witch with purple highlights, and last week I dreamt I was a gladiator on an alien world fighting for animals everywhere. I AM NOT MAKING THIS SHIT UP.

Your dream sounds horrible. Poor you! I don't have nightmares all that much, although I have a recurring one about fire.

-giggles a bit-

This dream of yours has amused me entirely too much... I've had a crappy day, I needed that ^_^

All present and accounted for and in once piece too I might add

:d Glad to hear it! I am always here to amuse with ridiculousness. Hope today goes better.

All present and accounted for

*hugs* YAY for my dreams not getting you!

I once had a dream that we were living in some kind of crazy made-up dictatorship, but at some point Voldemort was in charge, and when my family was on the run I flirted with Lucius Malfoy to save their lives :D

[lokifan]

Did it work? Lucius thinks he's super-cunning, but I bet he's very easily distracted by Teh Boobage.

Good to know I'm not the only one who dreams crazy made-up dictatorships with Voldemort and that! Although - you get Lucius and I get Umbridge? I was jipped.

I have no idea, my mum woke me up! She always does that at the most inconvenient times, like when my subconcious decides I should work for Torchwood or something. I got the feeling it was working though ;)

I should stop reading all these interesting posts and go to bed. I'm supposed to be awake in the morning.

I just have to say that I dream the weirdest dreams where people and places change quickly but my dreams are always wonderfully colorful. The sky is really blue, the grass is so green etc. I'm often almost disappointed when I wake up to the (kind of) dull reality where the colors aren't as vivid as in the dreams...

[lokifan]

LMAO. I hope you're in bed by now, anyway!

That's interesting. I'm not surprised you're disappointed to wake up if you dream in bright colours. I don't, usually - there's definite colour but only as much as there is in life.
