General Discussion

hm... I've never posted here before, but I've been thinking about it for a while... [center][size=4][b]Hello, dreamers![/b][/size][/center] [b]How long I've been at this:[/b] It's been on and off. I try to write down recalls when I can and I used to be really into dream interpretation when I was younger (dad got me two dream dictionaries, but I haven't really been using them). [b]My goal(s):[/b] Maybe a better way to remember my dreams since so much happens in them and they tend to be quite detailed. Being able to influence what I dream about would be nice too. [b]Things that show up a lot in my dreams:[/b] Violence/gore, exploration/new places/old places mashed together to make something new, family/friends [b]A little bit about me:[/b] I'm a 22 year old alumnus who studied game art. The video games and anime I love seem to influence my dreams, and boy do I have a lot of them. I'll post the one I had last night [s](I could post some of the other, more memorable ones I've had in the past, but I don't wanna spam OTL.)[/s] ----- [center][size=5][b]with one world's end does a new begin[/size][/b] [url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/MDZ3rVU.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/AkOZ5Yr.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/M1M3TbG.png[/img][/url][url=http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gend/2593123][img]https://i.imgur.com/9C9oHu8.png[/img][/url][/center] [b]Trigger Warnings:[/b] needles, death, blood/gore, sickness/disease, apocalypse scenario [b]Dreaming Techniques:[/b] None At first, the dream starts out as me watching a movie? I don't think it was a real movie, but it looked like it was filmed some time in the 80s. The plot was that there was some sort of bloodborne illness that was discovered on some military vessel. Some CIA agents or whoever do some investigating and try to let everyone know about it and stop it from spreading. They think they've isolated everyone with the disease, but a woman who has it tries to the boat they were keeping everyone on. The agents manage to intercept her and inject her with a vaccine. It reacts poorly with the disease and it gets very gory very quickly and she dies from blood loss. At this point, you would think that this movie would get a somewhat happy end and the disease will be stopped, but it gets worse. The disease in question is like a kind of bacteria? It consumes water and turns it into a blood-like substance. Remember how everyone's on a boat? In the ocean? Yeah. The bacteria thing gets into the ocean and begins spreading rapidly, turning all of the water into blood. Despite everything, no one can stop it and it has a catastrophic effect on the earth (fishing industry collapses, atmosphere is wonky because there's no real "ocean" anymore, nearly everything and everyone dies either from the disease itself or the fallout of the disease). Then this, what I thought was an action/thriller/drama movie from the 80s becomes a documentary of "the new Earth" where things have evolved to thrive in a world where most, if not all the water, has become blood. One creature in particular that I remembered was an red megalodon that had glowing, orange stripes (cool). It ends on a... positive note? Because the documentary showed that once all the water was gone, the bacteria died off, and some small droplets of water were beginning to form due to some volcanic air coming into contact with a cold front... or something. [b]Notes:[/b] current events have got me feelin' some kind of way huh (hope i did this thing right *crosses fingers*)
