What have you been dreaming about lately?
Moderator: Orlion
Two nights ago I dreamt that I kissed my real-life boyfriend in front of my dream-world ex-boyfriend--who happened to be a Strange Days-era Ralph Fiennes. Then my boyfriend said, "I'll see you later," and Ralph and I shared a moment of looking into each other's eyes. I knew that I'd loved him passionately once, but he'd treated me like garbage, and now he was down on his luck and realizing the error of his ways. But I just didn't love him anymore, so I gave him a goodbye kiss and walked away. Oh, and all this took place in a Wal-Mart.
Halfway down the stairs Is the stair where I sit. There isn't any other stair quite like it. I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top; So this is the stair where I always stop.

Dang, Wal-Mart has everything
When the man with a 45 meets the man with a rifle, you said the man with a pistol is a dead man. Let's see if it's true.
I remember dreaming that I was running away from the blurred people, and I had to find sand to fill my shoes, so they wouldn't get me. (?) I also dreamt one night that I had a plastic tupperware lid on a chair, but it was really Johnny Depp. (Like that Superman the Movie scene) I leant over the chair and said, "Johnny, you're a plastic lid!" and he answered, "Yeah, didn't you know?" He seemed surprised that I didn't know.

The dream I had last night was perhaps the strangest dream I have ever had...
...in the last month, maybe.
In any case, there was this large mansion..it was kind of "U" shaped, but at the bottom of the "U", it was a lot larger..kind of like, a main house, and two wings. Inside the "U" was a series of tiered..gardens? Well, not so much gardens as "environments". One had a small lake. Another had a grazeland. Each one was easily half a mile broad, and half that long. So, suffice to say, the house was huge.
I was walking about one of these..and...then like, a buffalo charged at me....I cowered, and it stopped right in front of me and forced me to pet its head. You know..the fuzzy part. And, though I'm sure it's much more wiry, in the dream, it was very plush and cottony.
Still, it was a buffalo, and in the dream, buffalo were carnivorous.
So, I thought it would eat me.
A cowboy...apparantly the "tender" of the buffalo appeared and told me to stand perfectly still and the buffalo would go away. So I did. And it walked off. But whenever I moved so much as a foot, it began running back, stopping and turning around at the exact instant I would stop.
I managed to get to a door, and found a pretty normal looking household...when walking down a hallway (the house was strangely empty) I found a..like..VERY narrow doorway. Maybe 20 inches wide at the most. I slid through it, and found a "secret" system of hallways and rooms. The hallways were all narrow and such, but otherwise normal.
And, there were..well..people there O.o; They all looked at me strangely, and I had to step in a side-room to let them by... I had no idea what the place was for, what they were doing, or anything..
And, after that, I heard my father screaming because it was 2:00 P.M. and I was still not out of bed.
In any case, strange, ne?

My dreams are all totally fantasy... not like fantasy gaming, but like, not adhering to any sort of structure. It's like my imagination gets unleahed, yesterday I had wierd tuft ears and a long snout, and giant bird feet, but I was wearing raver clothes. Like the raver dancers.

I dreamed a full-length story dream last night. When my alarm started going off this morning, I kept hitting the snooze button and falling right back asleep so I could get to the end of it. It made me late for work this morning.
I only remember bits and pieces of it. Towards the end, the father was searching for his long-lost daughter, who had been kidnapped ages and ages ago because of her special powers. Unbeknownst to him, she had escaped with the help of a group of people who taught her what her powers were good for and trained her in their use. Finally, the father's search for his daughter led him to the Arctic. As he crossed the ice in search of her, it started breaking up. There was this long cinematic segment while I watched his particular ice floe shrink and melt and crack away, until finally he was balanced on a piece of ice only a little bigger than a hardback book. While I was watching, I knew that the daughter was on her way to save him, but couldn't see how she could get there in time. But she did--she appeared in a haze of golden light, with flowers in her hair and wearing a funny straw hat.
Then came the climax--the fight with the villain, a powerful wizard. The daughter, having saved her father and come into her true power, changed from a lovely blond flower maiden into a lovely blond sophisticate, in a long dark spangled gown with her hair elegantly coifed, but somehow she wasn't as beautiful. She won the battle, and her face changed completely--a sweet and open countenance turned sour and cynical, though still lovely. Having beaten the wizard, she won the right to ask him for anything she wanted. She said, "Show me to myself as others see me." He refused. She said, "You cannot refuse. Show me to myself as others see me." And he did, and it was horrible--a huge olive green sluglike thing covered in slime, with big cartoonish popeyes and a polka-dot apron.
Then I knew the story was done, and I woke up to realize that I was going to be 45 minutes late for work.

Yeah, it was like watching a movie or reading a book. There were a couple times in the middle where I was playing a part, but I don't know if I was the daughter or somebody else entirely. The middle is kinda fuzzy, and the beginning isn't there at all. The middle had a lot of traveling in it, some big grassy fields, and a cute blond guy who I made out with (don't tell my bf! 
). So it may be that I was the daughter. Except by the end of the dream, it had definitely become third person, and I was watching it all as a spectator. Weird.

Did you fight Hierachy? And if so, who won?
Last night I dreamed that I was giving blood, but the blood-taking people took all of it, so I died (I was an old man and really needed all my blood. I wasn't an old man at the start of the dream, but you know what dreams are like.)
A few weeks ago I had a really interesting science fiction narrative dream that I'm making vague attempts to convert to short story form.
