I dreamt of Eomer of the Rohirrim the other night. I was hurrying towards my next class in a building in my university when I saw Eomer sitting in the corridor, in front of a classroom. (He looked the way I originally imagined him and not like his picture in the Downs photo page, so no eyeliner.

) I sat down beside him and chatted him up, and all I can remember is that I encouraged him about this book he was trying to write. Then I stood up and said bye and continued hurrying towards my next class. I arrived late and was scolded by my prof, quite needless to say. But for a chat with my big bro, it was all worth it.

Too bad it was only a dream, though.

I think the guy who be short was also somewhere in that dream, or in a separate one that I can't remember.

Last night, I dreamed I was on the steps of a large museum, although it looked more like an observatory. It's name was Italian, but I don't remember what. So I was standing on these steps up to the door (accessible by climbing up several large blocks of concrete. It was a weird door; sort-of knob-like), and Kitanna and Wilwa were standing near the edge of the steps, by some large trees. Kitanna said that she thought I was a girl, and Wilwa said that the museum was closing soon. And that's pretty much it. There was also some sort of political rally in a forest with torches and pitchforks, but Kitanna and Wilwa weren't there.

Oh wow I completely forgot to post in here but I will now tell you of my exceedingly strange dream.

It started off in Nilp's house in the Philippines and Nilp and Lhuna were there except that Nilp was about 12 and Lhuna was her normal age. Lhuna gave me a huge hug and then disappeared in the way that those pesky dream people do. The dream then (you know that this where you're in one place and then another? I call that flashing) flashed to Nilp and myself being in a funfair. We saw this mime guy and he was miming the Balrog Wing Debate, I remember that his way of miming a Balrog without wings was to clamp his arms to his sides and fall sideways off his box!

Anyway then the dream flashed again and now I was Nilp-less and was walking down this path. A guy, who might have been Eomer, told me that I had to be careful because there was a wasps nest on the side of the path and if they stung me I would turn into a frog. As I (very carefully) walked past a frog jumped into my path and somehow I knew that it was Menel (I think because his avvie reminds me of a frog).

The dream then flashed again and I was back watching the mime who then did the entire story of LotR. I actually remember sitting there and watching the whole thing and it taking so long that a whole day had passed before he had finished. And then I woke up.

So yes, weird dream, and because of the miming LotR thing I was exhausted when i woke up because I thought I hadn't slept for a day!

I dremt that I was the bear in the warewolf game and I destroyd swankytown.

(And, of course, it involves Kath.)

I dreamt that Shelob was passing a letter to Kath. But since I was one of the Shiriffs, I knew this correspondence wasn't innocent.

That's why I thought you were a werewolf!

I knew that I'd had a dream, but I couldn't for the life of me remember what it was until just now. I had a dream that I was looking at the best signatures thread and that Esty had posted a shortlist of her favorites. It contained seven names, almost none of which I can remember, but mine was at the bottom in very small font. I think it was probably brought on by taking such pains to get a picture of "Esty St." from a moving vehicle then linking it into my sig...

I had an altogether odd dream last night.

So me and some other people (some of them were Downers, but I'm not sure who, and some of them were people I've never met before) were slaves, and we were the entertainment at this party, except all we did was sit in the garage - they were showing us off or something - we were important. So we decided to escape while they were doing other things by going through their house and out the back door, which was a very risky attempt for some reason. Somewhere in this escape that house turns into my house, and it's me, Regin Hardhammer (he was a Dwarf), and my RPG character Sondo Brandybuck all trying to escape from these people who are trying to make us be slaves again. We fought them for awhile, they might have been Orcs for that segment of the dream. Regin and Sondo both killed one, I just sort of directed. The dream ended with us just dashing through a door.

I think I might be getting a cold after all.

Last night I dreamed that the phantom was chasing Robert DeNiro who was fleeing in a flying pay toilet.

And the phantom ate my deodorant stick.

Egads, I should stop visiting this forum.

I had a Downs / Lord of the Rings dream last night.

It started with myself, Nilp, Eomer and Gil-gallad wandering around Shelob's layer. We found Frodo and Sam looking for each other and were trying to help them out. But soon, Shelob and Ungoliant came chancing after us. We all ran back to The Barrow Downs and shut ourselves into a Barrow. But the spiders were trying to break down the door, so we piled up random things in front of the door to try and keep them out. In the end, I think that Gil decided to get a giant slug to help on the idea that spiders were afraid of slugs... yes...

I woke up after Nilp and Eomer began digging a tunnel to get away while Gil tried to use the slug... I think I need to drink less tea; it must be doing something to my brain.

Well, wouldn't you find a slimy grub of a creature detesting in your webs, whilst you were about to prepare a wonderful meal?

Wonderful dream though, and an excellent read.

I don't know why it took me so long to post this (though it's not at all a dream); it happened a couple of weeks ago, I think. I was walking through the same corridor in the dream above, and I saw, sitting on the floor in front of the VERY classroom in the above dream, someone who looked a lot like Eomer - the real one, not the one in my mind. I took the subtlest good look at the guy that I can manage, but he too looked at me. When I passed him I couldn't resist looking back, and when I did he was still looking at me! Please, Eomer, I know you don't need to, but tell me that wasn't you...

Oddwen · 09-22-2006, 05:06 AM

Two nights ago, I had a dream that the BD's began publishing a series of magazines devoted to the Werewolf games, each publication being devoted to the mods of each.

It got to the eighth edition (me being the mod), when I decided that "Hey! This is a Barrow-Downs dream! I'd better post it on the BD Dream thread!".

So all the dream hereafter was posted in great detail in the dream itself, that I can't remember exactly.

What I do remember is that the eighth edition of Werewolf! Magazine overflowed with praise for my game, and also featured an article by the Saucepan Man detailing the exploits of my brother and sister that had happened during the game. "Huh?" I remember thinking. "What are they doing in MY dream?" There were also many ads for rototillers and the like.

It culminated with SpM sending me the severed leg of our dog as a congratulatory gesture. That had me terribly confused, as our dog still had all of her four legs. I remember bidding my siblings to see if one of Sheila's legs "was newer than the other, or something?!?".

Errrrrrrrrrrrrk.

No need to say, I loved Valesse's dream! I am sure it will come true at one point. . .

I had a very weird mix of dreams last night and eventhough I am sure they where seperate dreams, they become a blury mix.

For some reason I needed to talk with The Ka about something, so I went to her house, she insisted that we stood we talked through the door. It was kind of a weird conversation and it did not really lead anywere. While she was talking I went to the back of the house where ther were an open glass door, I went in and was standing right behind Ka. She still thought I was on the otherside of the door and kept on talking and did not even notise me, then I graped some air-plane tickets on a table and went back to the door. We talked for a while and she mentioned something about a shadow behind her, then a rep. arrived. it kind of just popped up where the door used to be. It was from Narfforc and it was negative, but it said the exact same thing as a possitive rep he had given me previously.

Then I had a dream about IM'ing Formendacil about the abcent of some Downers, I then had to go to the bathroom. When I returned apparantley they had all been online and have had the greatest conversations.

You can inteprit if you like, but I already know what the dreams ment.

Gil-Galad · 09-24-2006, 07:49 PM

Now here is a new one, The Barrow-Dons, a Mafia-esque group ruled by none-other then Esty, Saucepan, Mister Underhill, Sharku and The Barrow-Wight.

"Nice thread you got there, be a shame if something bad happened to it"

ironically after i had the dream, i actually typed in www.barrowdons.com by accident...
