odd dreams anyone?

[A®heim]

We've all had em. Dreams that we recall almost perfectly the next morning. As for me, I'm plagued with one at least 3 times a week. So I'm just going to post some of them and maybe you'll do the same.

Title: Why is Arheim a Spirit? Other than Zark I mean.

Type: Dream, was cooler than scary

Description:
So there was this anti-shapeshifter organization that was prosecuting magical folk and the likes (one of which I was not...yet.) I was in this hideout by my high school (where the anti-magic people's headquarters was of course) with some of the other non magical supporter friends of mine. Then one of the magic guys came and told us it was hopeless and we should turn ourselves in. So we refusedand he threw in this magic hand-grenade, but I saw it just in time and dived out when it exploded. Everyone else was like super shape-shifted into this mix of a bunch of animals. But I only took the very edge of it and was turned into a spirit-otter thing (kept going between me as a giant otter and me as just a human spirit).But then they captured me and took me to the court (the auditorium) and had me tried for being one of the magic guys (they had me in this leg ring chain thing). All the people were all shouting to have me killed and the dean was leading them, but I managed to get a word with the judge (the principal) alone. I did this long speech on how we were people too (sometimes) and this is wrong and such. It turned out he was really unsure about the whole witch-hunt thing the whole time. So then there was a tugging at my foot and the audience had begun shouting in glee so I peeked out (they were planning to do something bad) then I asked the princijudge if I could flee and he said yes. So I used my spirit powers to simply go through the ring and make for the doors which were also closed but I went through them too. It was an odd feeling, kinda cold and dark, felt like a big gust of wind. So then I was outside, and the dean had apparently ordered for all my kind to be eradicated. So all her minions (in the form of miscellaneous, blue, gaseous, objects) started pouring from everywhere.They started killing all the fleeing shapeshifters without remorse (a blue monster truck almost got me) until there was this GIANT spikey worm thing that completely surrounded me in its coils. It started to close on me and was right in front of me when my shape-shifter friend (shaped like a Chinese dragon I think) grabbed me and we both just sank through the ground. We were falling through the dark and crying tears of joy just like the end of a bad anime movie when I suddenly woke up. YAY!....no....awwwww, I liked that one.

Awsomeness: 9 (how many people get to be otter spirits and remember it?)

Scariness: 4 (scariest part was actually seeing the other shape-shifters being killed. They kinda just poofed Golden Compass style)

Weirdness: 7

Extenuating Circumstances: I was at my grandparents house for the summer. I ALWAYS have my coolest dreams there.

Title: What do you call this dream?Football from out of this world

Type: Dream or Nightmare?Dream

Description: Tell us about it. What happened?
Ok, well it began with just a foggy football dream, then out of no where there are some aliens that pop up. I apperantly decided it would be a good idea to play football with them so the game began. After a rough two minutes into it we were already into the fourth quarter (don't ask....) and my team had the ball. I was both the QB and the reciever (again don't ask) and I threw the ball to myself. I had an alien block for my once I caught the ball and scored the winning touchdown.

Awesomeness: 6

Scariness: 2

Weirdness: 8

Extenuating Circumstances: I am not sure. The football season was over, (I used to play it, gave up on it a year ago) and neither pro nor college were playing at the time. It could have been a need to play again or something, but I have no clue.

Title: Wishy Wash and Multi-Colored

Type: Kind of Both, I guess

Description: Okay, well, I entered this kind of colorful surrounding and it took me a moment to realize it was an actual battle. You know, pretty explosions and people screaming, guns going off and all this kind of thing. I turned and there was my father, standing there, shouting orders and there were just hordes of people streaming from either side of him to enter this war.
Well, they were Elites, Grunts, and Spartans.
Randomly, I ran up to him and cried out for him to let me join. My father merely looked down at me and said "Little Girls don't fight." Okay, my father doesn't think that way. And I knew it. My father has never told me I can't do anything a male can't. So, that struck me as rather odd.
As he started going away, I chased him down, saying that he knew I was good enough to be on his elite commanding squad. Whatever that was. He shook me off and told me to go dig myself a hole to stay in.
OOooookay then.
Well, I went to go find myself a whole. As I was walking, Master Cheif just like.. plummets outta the sky from no where. He just collapses. Right there. One this pile of rocks, all twisted and everything. Beyond him magically appeared this hole in the wall, and there's just aliens everywhere. They were marching on the roads in a cliff wall. By now, I saw nothing of a battle, and heard nothing.
Ignoring Chief, I go through the hole and see there's like this huge, golden gate. I mean, massive. Everything's suddenly coated almost an orange-ish red. I go up to the gate and it swings open for me. Going through, it slams shut and before me is this tide of water (that looks like blood by the lighting) that I step through and start swimming. Swimming several hundred yards, I see these buildings. And there's people standing on them, kind of optimistic to some degree and looking around. There buildings were like skyscrapers. I scaled those buildings like it was nothing. And that's weird, but I'm not a climbing person. I mean, I seriously hopped up that wall.
That's when the weirdness began. Sauron's eye from Lord of the Rings appeared and as it did that weird narrowing thing, the noises (that I KNOW came from him) spoke to us in Arnold Schwarzenegger voice. It was one of those WTF moments. >_> So, he goes on to explain that this is like the last man standing, win by death, game show deal. While we're surviving, we have to find these three keys, make it across the blood sea and open the gates to escape.
That's when the twisting, shaking motions of the buildings began. They started to collapse and tremble, and people were flying EVERYWHERE and hitting the sea. It was crazy. I grabbed a rail and hung on for dear life. You'd be amazed at the trust these people had become in their terror. I sleep from the rail when the wooden floors fo my skyscraper caved. I fell and hit another floor, being bruised and such, and before me was floating a gawddamn golden key. I made a grab at it as some moron crashed before it and continued down when that floor caved. The key in my grasp, and scrambled back for the tops of the buildings. There were like... a dozen hands reaching for me to haul me up. I don't know if I was ever more grateful.
Enter in the dog fish. It had a bull dog's head and the rest of the body was in scales. Fighting through peril with like ninja-awesomeness, I gained the second key. That's when the catfish became a problem. The only fishy thing about it was the tail and gills. Everything else was pretty much feline. The cat was tricky. He kept scooping me up and I'd have to battle from his grasp and leap back onto the buildings where the other humans made sure I was there safely. The weird part about it was, that, every time the cat grabbed me, those buttons for those combo shots from xbox would pop up. Another WTF moment.
But then, one of my grandmother's suddenly appears and grows to be a massive giant. I have shaking buildings, a catfish, and a giant that looks like my grandmother trying to kill me.
Great.
Well, big Grandma aimed her fists at me. The entire building collaspe, and the water had suddenly turned to sand. I fell onto the sand, and the mass of people turned to bones raining around me. Grandma came in to stomp my life and I scrambled for the tomb the buildings had created.
Last thing I woke up to was being sucked down a sand pit with chunks of building and bones around me, Grandma giant cackling away.


Awesomeness: 9 ( I was pretty badass.)

Scariness: 8 (I have rather vivid dreams.)

Weirdness: 8 (Pretty high on the random scale, too.)

Extenuating Circumstances: I honestly have no idea.

Title: The Brain Vice and Giant Teeth

Type: Starts off as a dream, becomes a nightmare

Description: Ok, let me start by saying that this is a dream/nightmare I had back in kindergarten and still remember quite vividly.

Ok, it starts off fairly normal. I'm pretty much just hanging out with my friends. But then suddenly, someone comes running up to me telling me about how all of our Asian friends have been kidnapped by the evil witch (you know in snow white when the queen turns herself into an ugly hag? That's the evil witch in my dream). Well, in the dream, my best friend is one of the Asian kids that has been kidnapped.

Note: All of the Asian kids in my dream had big round glasses, giant buck teeth, and wore chinese food take out boxes on their heads.

So, I round up a team of people to help me rescue my friends. This group included Dick Tracy, Superman, Fred from Scooby-Doo, and the green guy from street fighter.

So me and my gang of good guys storm the evil witch's castle. Once inside, we find out the extent of her evil plot. She planned to squeeze the brains out of all the Asian kids with a vice that used wine bottle corks that pushed against the temples of their heads. We start to round up all the kids, and we get them all out of there with little to no incident. I'm at the back of the group, making sure everyone is ok and on their way out. But when I get to the doors, they suddenly slam shut, cutting me off alone in the castle.

I start to look for another way out, when all of the sudden, the evil witch appears right in front of me. She's slow and old, and so I punch her in the face and run past her... but she shoots lightning out of her hands palpatine-style and knocks me to the ground. I try to get up, and I back into a corner. She's bearing down on me, Shooting lightning all around me, and right as she goes in for the kill...

I wake up.

Awesomeness: 5 as far as my power within the dream. But I give my youthful imagination an 8

Scariness: Starts at a 1, increases to a 6, and then ends with a 9

Weirdness: I'm gonna have to give it a 7

Extenuating Circumstances: Too much TV?

Title: Side Seat Driving with Asians

Type: neither....or both?

Description: It started out as I was talking to my bff, Amber, in the front yard of our house at night. She was standing by this tree in the yard and I was standing on the porch. As she was going back inside, I saw this black dog run by her and thought "OMG! MY DOG IS LOOSE!" Just as I was about to go running after him this guy came around the corner of the house. (He was some net buddy we had all started hanging out with and since he looked pretty close to how Lat does and we've all talked to him at some point, I'm just gonna say it was him to make things easier) I was like "Hey! Samson got out! We gotta catch him!" Lat gave me this confused look and said that Dalan was feeding Samson in the back yard. Needless to say I was confused.

Either way, we catch the dog and discover that we ran out of dog food to feed him, so Lat and I climb in the car. So far not so strange, but the odd thing was...I got in the passenger side of the car to drive (the steering wheel was still on the actual driver's side) and Lat hopped in the back. So we're driving down the street and get to the stop light and have to stop. Suddenly there's a bunch of flashes from beside us, so I look over and it's this car full of Asian tourists taking pictures of us and everything else (I DO NOT live in a tourist city). Confused I look back at Lat and only then do I ask why he's in the back. He said something along the lines of that he didn't feel comfortable sitting in the front seats of my car, but i just kinda told him he was weird and shrugged it off.

Then the car started driving again! I looked over to the driver side and there was this asian guy sitting there driving us, when he hadn't been there before! I yelled and freaked out and he started trying to climb out the car window while the car was driving and I kept having to pull him back in because I didn't want him to get away. So we come up to the stop sign right at the corner of my church and I grab the wheel and turn the car down my church's street while Lat is trying to keep the guy in the car. (for some reason there was a bus stop in front of my church...there isn't one IRL, and I don't know why I bothered to notice in my dream but i did.) So I turn into my church parking lot and turn the car OFF putting it in PARK...I even took the key with me.

Anyway, I kick the guy out of my car and am about ready to beat the ever-livin' outta him when my old high school principal comes around the corner (he was security for the church now for some reason). He starts asking what's going on and if Lat and I were trying to kidnap this guy! I looked at him stupid and proceeded to rail on about how I was only 19 (btw, i'm 22 IRL) and that he had been trying to kidnap us because he'd suddenly appeared in the car...and that Martinez (the principal/church security) could call my mom to verify that Lat and I had been the only ones in the car when we left.

Suddenly Lat runs up and points out that my car was driving away....

Without anyone in it....

when I had the key in my hand...

and it had been off and in park....

I proceeded to watch it drive through the parking lot, rather well might I add, nearly hit some other cars, turn, and drive out into the street, and drive away. Only then did I start running after it. (as if that would help).

That was when I woke up.

Awesomeness: 4

Scariness: 4

Weirdness: 7

Extenuating Circumstances: no conceivable idea....

Not gonna do the template for this one. Just thought I would mention that I somewhat remembered my dream last night. Even though I don't remember enough to really constitute me telling you about it, I thought you might want to know since it had something to do with SWURP.

Alright it was longer but all I remember was that Squee was doing her own personal SWURP awards. There was a bunch of categories including "Most amusing Cboxer" but something had gone wrong with her copy/paste and most of the names were just jumbled up code. (I think I was at the top, seriously. Plus there were a couple discernible names that weren't even members here 0.o).

So ya, I'll just do quick little ones like this whenever I have a recent one.

Title: Uh, rickity bridge?
Type: nightmare
Description: Well, it started off with me standing on the edge of a rickity bridge. I started walking across (don't ask why I was there or why I decided to do it) well one of the planks broke and I tripped. I fell forward and flailed. Just before my face smashed into the bridge, I woke up flailing in my bed.
Awesomeness: 1
Scariness: 6? MY body was freaking out, but my mind was like...that wasn't scary. Stupid adrenaline...
Weirdness: 3 (normal for a dream I guess)
Extenuating Circumstances: uhhhh, my body hasn't freaked out in a while. the weirdest part is that the dream lasted like 5 seconds, but I woke up like 5 hours later

[Vipervertical]

Oooo, I remembered another one...more or less...
Title: THE DOCTOR
Type: Dream
Description: So, this one was a long time ago, it is the 3rd or 4th time I've had a dream involving the Doctor, the most recent one. I think I had it...last week? ANYways, it happened like this(BTW I forgot how it started):
I was on an island, I could tell because I could see water on all sides. There was a town, I remember running through it, but I couldn't tell you when that chronologically happened. So I DO remember hanging from some kind of monkey-baresque structure (I know, vague, but thats how dreams are ) And I asked somebody for my sonic screwdriver (Apparently I'm the Doctor in this dream, all my other ones I was his companion) She (I think it was a she...) asked me what a sonic screwdriver was. At this point I noticed that a storm was approaching. (don't ask why this is important, but apparently it was to me) I answered that it was about the shape of a ball-point pen with a glowy blue thing on one end. She(?) said she hadn't seen anything like that. I sighed and climbed up the structure more, the girl(once again, not exactly sure) followed me. She then told me she found something that could be useful, and handed me...the sonic screwdriver. I told her that it was the sonic screwdriver, and then pressed the button while holding it to the side of the...structure. A red light came out, I was confused for a second, then flipped it around, using the other side. This time a blue light came out, I was very pleased with myself.
The rest is pretty much a blur...
Awesomeness: uh...7? I was the Doctor
Scariness: 3ish
Weirdness: 8 (could be weirder)
Extenuating Circumstances: Too much DW?

Title: Saving the world with birds

Type: Dream

Description: It was a short and broken night of sleep, and was therefore plagued with many dreams. The only one I really remember is your standard Arheim dream of saving the world from some odd force usually with the help of supernatural allies. All I remember was that me (as in good old annoying supernatural Cbox me) and Talau's character....Talau....were in it as well as one of Wolf's I think. Also I woke up once when my cat decided to take a nap on my chest and when I went back to sleep to resume the dream, Lil'O was in it.

Awesomeness: 7

Scariness: 4 don't remember any threats, but I'm sure there were.

Weirdness: 8

Extenuating Circumstances: Up til 6 A.M. talking to Tal and friends, what do you expect?
