Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I've managed to get enough recalls!

Recall wasn't too bad for the most part, but I've not got time for a full writeup :( Night 1 [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/9C9oHu8.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/IXZhdwx.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/hCPXA5P.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/M1M3TbG.png[/img][/url] Night. Some kind of remote compound. Was commanding a crew of tiny little dudes, we invaded (reclaimed?) a house. There were dangerous zombies, contagious I think, in the kitchen; most of dream spent outside on a rise casing the house, trying to get past the zombies. Layout was like a rusted-out ranch house, looked kind of like we were in the dust bowl. We must have been scavengers. POI2 appeared as a blind/mad priest, useless liability.

The world was ending to some extent. Above the beach, in the sky, was a looping racetrack made from a pearly material--think Rainbow Road from Mario Kart, but primarily pink/white/purple. Most of dream was spent racing on the track. At some point we segued into a man-made indoor lagoon, think a pool inside a resort done up to look like something "natural." I have a sketch IRL of the interconnected pools, the fake greenery on the walls, styrofoam rocks. Patchy the Pirate from Spongebob was there. Whatever entity we were fighting out there in the sky had been replicated as an attraction of sorts, I think, that the resort-goers could "fight" for fun through a scripted play-like event. Night 3 [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/IXZhdwx.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/iyclcTv.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/hCPXA5P.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/MDZ3rVU.png[/img][/url] Really more a series of scenes than a plot-rich dream. I was sneaking through a sort of catacomb-basement-area of a (college?) where two women were keeping watch, trying to sneak to, I think, some kind of cistern inlet. The first sub-basement had been abandoned, the second had the women, I was expecting a third but couldn't find the floor hatch--the women simultaneously responded to my presence as a normal thing and didn't really "see" me. Everything was made out of the same clay, a sort of pueblo-like tan. As I searched for the cistern inlet, POI2 appeared. At first they helped, distracting the women, but they suddenly turned aggressive and belligerent, screaming at me for searching for the "forbidden" cistern. Hard cut to a dusty attic. Sun shining through loose slat walls, everything bleached a kind of grey. POI2 aggressive, pacing. Confronts me with question about POI, not sure of exact question, likely in the vein of "what was so bad", sense that they were confident I couldn't answer. When I gave an answer, they just stood there silently, as if they didn't know how to respond. I walked down a woodland trail and pet (and got clawed by) 3 cats. Sense that my dream crew had intended it as a decompression thing, but residual anxiety had leaked into the cats. Totally worth it though, really cute cats. [b]Notes[/b]: My own little dream crew from the rallying exercise was given "permission" for Night 3 (last night's) dream. I have an imperfect degree of awareness for the buildup that leads to more serious nightmares, and if there's one thing I've learned (about mine at least), nightmares are generally on your side...they're not about inflicting suffering, they're about processing it before it reaches dangerous waking levels. Sometimes you just gotta sacrifice a night.

Our engineering professors for that class assigned us to build giant valentine's day cookies, one per team. For some reason no one was laying out dough/cookie on the ground; instead, we had to use a combination of 4x4's and rocks to make a level set of points for the cookie to rest on as we worked. Our team decided to make a border of squares that alternated between 2-strand and 3-strand braided dough, to represent alternating heartbeats, around the outside of our giant heart (by giant I mean like... probably 8 feet long?). Recall gets kind of fuzzy after that but we then frosted it (after it magically cooked in the space between dream moments - don't ask me how anyone got theirs in any sort of oven) and presented it and I guess it was good? It was set on top of a heart-shaped box tall enough to walk into, as a lid/roof. I don't remember why, but that was part of the grading procedure I think. It was right under a balcony, which the profs had been on for the whole activity. [b]Notes:[/b] ...wait was this dream because of our actual project? Holy crap this dream was just a remixed recap of the events of yesterday. The cookies came out of nowhere but our actual senior design project involves the heart and heartbeats and yesterday we spent a lot of time trying to work out the aesthetic parts of the design. And then I went to do some quilting in the evening. -Last night's rally was basically "hey thanks again for not doing an uncomfortable dream, but also dreams don't HAVE to be mundane to be Okay. Also I'm sorry I can't be more specific about what to avoid, I know we do best with specifics, but oh well, if a dream like that happens again maybe we can narrow down what's wrong with it." Edit: WAIT THE COOKIE PART WAS REAL TOO! Well, sort of. When I bought lunch yesterday I also bought an oversized M&M cookie. It wasn't frosted and it was about 6 inches across, but still.

not a lot of recall, but here is the bits I can remember...
Really strange dream about moving and packing stuff in an apartment (not my apartment, I live in a house).
LOTS of stuff and not enough boxes. Then I am in this huge mansion and my little pile of things is in the entryway and looks SO small.... then suddenly woke up.

Now off to celebrate my Birthday today !

Once again, no recall.

I had a weird dream about the building of a school. I was exploring it either as it was being built or shortly after completion, and it was more like a zoo? Weird doors that headed to deserts or jungles. I don't remember too much about it.

Exactly like movie night, except this time I explicitly say that we're not pirate-streaming movies from Netflix to avoid getting shut down by mods :P [center][size=5][url=https://oriwritesaplugin.github.io/FR-Miscellany/dreamsig.html]Dream Form[/url][/size][/center] With thanks to @Starry413 for helping folks with this, the easiest way to check if YOU'VE earned a badge is to go [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/search/forums?term=&poster=YOUR+UN+HERE&topicid=2593123&forum=&when=0&sort=relevant]here[/url] and replace "YOUR UN HERE" with your username. You can normally tell if it's a dream/no recall from the first few words (especially if you're using the form, due to the size & center tags). Behind on badges right now because IRL is madness, working on it.

[b]Dreaming Techniques:[/b] Visualization So me and my mom and a few friends were at this hotel, it was dimly lit yet felt somewhat familiar. We were splitting up our rooms, I very vividly remember being in #268, and the dream immediately cuts to this weird dude. He looks like a businessman, and he's taking to me about something. Sitting behind him is another man, he's scrawny and creepy and has no teeth, his gums are gross and blue. Apparently business guy needs teeth, he's willing to pay me for a few of my back molars. And then I'm in another room, it looks very sterile, yet dingy and dark. A nurse ushers me over to a examination table and I lie down on it, a privacy curtain is drawn and I am alone. The businessman enters and promises that I won't feel anything, and proceeds to pull out a huge syringe. He pokes the side of my mouth with it, and I can no longer feel my lips. And then he pulls out bottles of pain meds, I remember one being called a furret, and says to someone behind the screen that, "this should knock the bunny out real well". And then in dream I got knocked out by said drugs And then I woke up (still in dream) and I couldn't feel my face, I was still on the table, alone, so I got up. I tried to talk to the nurse at the desk but I couldn't speak, so I left, and went back to my hotel room and fell asleep And then I woke up for real and I'm really confused [b]Notes:[/b] uhhh believe it or not this was the first dream I've been able to recall in years! Not sure how happy I am that this is what my brain does when I'm unconscious, but hey maybe I'll get some less creepy dreams in the future :3c
