TheGreatElvenWarrior has been trapped in the Barrow!
I had this really freaky dream last night. It started with my cousin driving their van and it all of a sudden turned into a rocket ship, we then went to another planet. I thought, wouldn't it be great if I met a Downer... I did apparently... I met this person that looked like Brinniel's avatar. She said that she was a mod, but she didn't say which one... I went into a restaurant and there was this sign in the front and it said "The Barrow-Wight Himself lives here" And we ate there. Then we had to leave and we couldn't because we were their prisoners! When we were in that mess, I woke up... Thank God.

(Two Downs-less, relatively sleep-deprived nights, two BD dreams.)

Night 1:
A BDer cameo-ed in my dream!

It was about my family. The time was very early in the morning, perhaps around 4 AM. I was awakened by the sounds of my mum preparing to leave, I think for abroad. While we were in their bedroom and she went about making sure she had everything she needed, she warned me about haunting spirits around our house disturbing her and dad's sleep. I expressed some relief about being a heavy sleeper. And just then, Leggie passed by outside the room, almost gliding, rubbing his eyes and looking very sleepy. And then he never appeared again, until I woke up shortly afterwards.

I remember my dream self being very surprised to see him, but I am more surprised (and was, even while I was dreaming) that I didn't run after him and ask what he was doing in my subconscious.

Night 2:
All I can remember is that I was talking to RL people about the Pokey Stick of Doom.

I think you're witnessing a serious case of Downs withdrawal.

Until...after you woke up? Is there more to this that we should know about?

I can't remember exactly all the Downers that pop'ed into my dreams last night, but it was definately BD related, in a werewolf sense.

Majorly what I remember is that there was suddenly an overpopulation of cyotes where I live, so for the most part people kept their animals, etc. inside during the evening and night. Then the cyotes started to dwindle because something was killing them off and people began to disappear. Then the dream sped up and for the most part I couldn't leave my house because a bunch of werewolves camped out on my front lawn. Then the next night more werewolves showed up for some sort of party, but a few Downers came too and were able to pass by the wolves with no problem, and ring my doorbell.
I didn't let anyone in until Lhuna and Rune showed up and explained that they thought I was throwing a party and that they had food with them. After saying this the werewolves started eyeing everyone so I gave in and let other Downers in.
I explained that the wolves were the ones having a party, and that they probably had been invited over to be dinner. The only other thing I remember is other Downers started throwing food out my windows at the wolves, and I was trying to stop them so they wouldn't settle down at my house.

I had another dream that was a lot shorter, but I was visiting Lommy and Agan and we ran out of bread or something so I offered to go buy some more. A Little Green came by and warned me that one of the bakers was a werewolf, but she didn't know which one. I ended up going out for bread anyways, and noticed that there was three bakeries right next to one another and stood there trying to decide which one to go into.
For the most part I figured I'd be okay since it was the middle of the day so I chose the left bakery at random. There was a long line, but I waited anyways until after a half-hour I decided that I'd find bread somewhere else. Then werewolves ran out of the back of the store and started ripping people apart, so I ran out after it became a bit messy and graphic.
I ended up being covered in blood anyways, so I just went into the next shop which ended up being run by vampires who shook their heads and one said,
"That's why you don't buy bread from werewolves."


I think the second was my favourite, just for the closure.

Mine too. You have an hilarious subconscious, Ka.

I haven't been posting my dreams lately... But Hookbill has been in two thirds of my dreams of the last three nights...

Dream 1: Sally came into my dream the first night and was really mad at me for some reason, I have no idea why. My dream basically consisted of her being mad at me and trying to kill me... It was really scary!

Dream 2: Hookbill was a tour guide somewhere and I was on his tour, Hookbill was showing me all of these landmarks...

Dream 3: Last nights dream was really weird, probably because I watched Doctor Who last night. But anyway, My cousin and I were in a predicament and I don't know why... All of a sudden Hookbill the Goomba showed up and was saving us from a bunch of dieleks (I probably didn't spell that correctly). I can't remember much more of the dream and plus I woke up in a very crazy spot. But still, it was very weird...

Thumbs up

Daleks.

Incidentally, I think I would make a dreadful tour guide. Too many colours and events.
