I had a dream its.,,. i dunno how to describe these weird continius dreams, it's a return to this world and some similar concepts. I n this world I had died, and wen well fuck. But with me i brought knowledge and some tools and ideas oif what was happpening in this limbop/hell that I ended u p in. So in this world you can kinda bring concepts of items in with you and so a bicycle doesnt need a bike chain to work, just pedaling and you not thinking about the inner workings, and it will just run, be careful about telling someone else about these things or it might fail. Well anyhow i am in this like two layered little twist around of a staircare thing the lower floor has some folks chilling out, a little imp like guy and some nice folk, they arnt really doing anyhting just kinda existing feeling out not really having their routines left in them. I wave and go upstairs, i've been here before so I open the door upstairs and pulll a peice of string through and threat it through, this keeps the door a little bit more attached as long as it's remembered. and I go through,

on the other side of this door was a HUGE hallway that ended in a giant white light, it's here that folks go to fight some sort of fight, some are around to fight over and over again, others arnt it's not really consistant, but they go to the light with weapons and it's like they are ready to never come back, but some folks like me seem to kinda know the area and keep being here. This time I said, hey i need a few supplies. And thats when i met a business owner who closed down his business and i said HEY come with me. I got distracted and the door got closed and i went SHIT and looked through pulled it open and it was a broom closet and i went fuck fuck fuck what do i do, but luckily my string held and within a few seconds the door swung open from someone earlier who was coming by and i went through and got back to where i needed with a pal we shall call leon. I told leon, don't think about it, just cook the best food hes ever thought of, there are supplies over here and he can do it... I think he made curry, rice, and doughtnuts. Huge pot of it. I borought it up out of the door again, leaving my foot in the door this time, and got everybody to eat, the strong and familiar food was making these people i kinda remember start to come alive with empathy and complexities that they wre missing again. A binding to their previous life, and they started to leave the battle room and come down to the staircase.

This got them talking to the people down there too and socializing and i felt a little better about being in limbo again. But getting these supplies and making people funcion was hard so I tried talking to people about getting donations of the items they brought with them and just building a bit of a tradition of doing this to get people mobilized into inspiring their existance again. In the end i dunno if it really kicked in but i went a little down the hall way at the bottomn of the stairwell and went to explore and get some new friends to talk to. Thats where i saw a little floating like candymachine like thing that sucked up someone i knew, but was like 3ft tall and was taking them to another island in limbo. I grabbed it and pulled them out of the little clear plastic bubble and said hey come hang out with our group don't head off that way. They nodded and said sure for some reason. And i was like, i should check in on the group. Met a lady who was annoyed that a staple gun wasnt working so she was in a little corner that looked likt the front window of a retain space, trying to pop some staples out. I said hey don't worry about the staples, watch, and took the gun and popped the spring looked at it full of staples, nodded, let the spring snap shut and then proceded to staple the front of a big crt television a few times down and it was working great. She was like OH COOL i can get my job done now, and i said, yeah, but actually it's cooler than that. On the tv it was like two scantily clad women on repeat interacting with eachother, and i took a sticky note and paused the video, covering the person in the tv and stappled it to the tv screen. When I pushed play, the writing on the note actually ended up on the person in the tv and she reacted, going, where did this come from!?

So anyhow the person in retaiil said, showed suprised and amazement of how that worked and i said to come hang out with our group over down the way, and she said, well i need some more supplies where can i get some... and i thought about the little person i rescued and pointed out, hey i think they know a little bit of 3d printing which in this space is gong to be unstoppable. We needed and decided to go over to the rest of the group... but when we got there, mostly everybody was gone for some reason, the little imp was missing and i asked the group down there where it went, and they shrugged and said he had to move on for some reason. I got a little paniced and wound up because of this, and looked in the room upstairs which was empty too and was sewearing trying to figure out what i missed, but i saw something i cared about i think a teddy bear and had a moment of thinking i should grab it, but then i heard the sound of a bus driving up and said NO, I need to move. and spun around and ran as fast as i could away from the area and i ended up outside in the snow and there was a school bus who sorta saw me and was already gearing up to move and i screamed for them to wait. Their side door was open and it was one of my coworkers and so i ran as fast as i could as it started to speed up and dived in the open door,aand it closed right after. Inside the school bus was everybody i was looking for so i felt a strong sense of releif, whereever we were going i might have them with me afterwards

I dunno if that was true though because the next place i was, i was in some sort of small appartment like area, wit wasnt familiar, and my dad and brother were there. I was like oh cool and took off a bag i was apparently wearing, it was full of cooking supplies (a lot of varied noodles) and i grabbed a pot to go make something and bind to this area a bit. But while I was there I asked my dad, wait how did he end up here around the same time as me, and he said low blood sugar got him. As far as he could tell, he was watching something and his body just kinda keeled back and he let out a light call for help, but noone heard to help him, and he just kinda slumped back and didnt wake up. I had probbably died from something as well, i couldnt remember what from, but without me there noone was there to check in on him, something weird happpened.

This was the thought that kinda shook me awake

In this dream I dsreamt that I was working for a ventures bros like agency and i had to go look into the recruitment drive of a agency who was calling themself XRX and were some sort of group who awas a bit like hive. So I go to this recruitment dsrive and they have promotional advert and its like blah blah rearrage some letters XRX join us|! we do lots of good things, and the whole area was filled with people looking for a job. So So I have a noteboook and i'm writing down details of everything I see, this person doing that thing and generally noting how the recruitment process pretends to stest your skills but how the tests are unbeleivably simple and dumb. I figure the whole thing is actually a front for a henchmen recruitment system because folks are so desperate they will take anything at this point.
This for some reason leads to me being on top of a foot hills in the snow, and i'm with 3 others, and were making a campfire, but one of the peoples fast asleep and we have some animals with us, i think a monkey and a bunny,a nd they can speak english because they are specail operatives as well xD i think it's related to getting information on this XRX group and i'm remembering the past, but anyhow, the blanket of the sleeping person catches on fire and they go OH SHIT I WANTED TO WARM UP not be warm for the rest of my life. We put it out and all snicker a bit but figure it's time to move on and head up the hills in the snow. We see a cave and I am like oh yeah this cave, and in this cave theres some soldiers and a little girl wwhos definitely possesed and she comes around along the floor being spooky and slowly following you and you game over if she catches you from behind, but only from behind xD up front she just looks at you and wobbles

1: I had a dreams where i was helping some detective or something in a scifi dystopic world and so we had a litle chip that showed that this guy who got murdereed was probabilistically going to end up in this location. But in the dream we wanted to check the evidence so got the raw data and so we looked at it and compiled it into a wireframe like map of the city and all the places he could have gone and how millions of little overlapping variants of the guy were going through the city and it showed whatever he was doing, he was always going to end up at that point one way or another, and dead

2: I had a dream of a game that was kinda like a mix of killin floor and home alone, where instead of like fighting the big bad you constantly set up traps an triggers and had to complete all sorts of secondary goals a little like that other game with the survive the killer. In this scenario though instead of the survivors being the ones on the back foot, the monster was hulking as shit and the player was constantly moving and having to bait the monster around. Get them into traps and stuff

3: So i had a dream where a friend said, here we are staying at a hotel, i got these two tickets aand we just play abunch of like little competition/game things. So then we end up in this gameshow like thing and my friend disapeared into some other grouping even though i thought we would be playing together, whatever. One of the games was to look good with a cane, so for some reason i was wearing abunch of white dress clothing and i leaned back and looked pompus as fuck but because i was rolled onto the ball of my heel, i was leaning around in circles like a weather vane, but host guy was like yup this is good. Which then lead to e taking a pause and ending up in another room talking to people and stuff, i think there was stuff that happened i forgot. But then the next game i was late too because of talking to people and it was to make some sort of armour using random bits of clothing, thread/wire and just chain, lots of chain, but everybody else took all the chain so iw as left with like 2 m eters of chain. So I grabbed a vest and just sewed two bits of chain into the front of the vest. Then the next thing was to solve dumb puzzles, but the trick was that these flexible aggresive tubes dropped down from the ceiling and kept suctioning to people with vacuum pressure and being a nuiscance, but my stupid chains made it really hard for them to get a grip on some parts of me. So then i solved some puzzles and woke up

4: I had a dream where i went for a job interview, and first ended up going to the wrong museum in the city for it but then getting to where i wanted just in time anyhow, and when i got there, my last employers and everybody else who was sorta involved was there interviewing or whatever, but because it involved my last employer whos a jerk, we ended up calling in everybody i ever worked for to sort out and evaluate my honesty or something

5: I had a dream where i was calling the vet to tell them about the fact that my cat was eating food that was weird and cocnerned us, and because it was really old and half molded and stuff right. but ya know eh was perfectly fine and showing no signs of being sick or anyhting so at the end of the dream i was liek... i dunno why i'm calling because hes fine

6: I had a dream of like, a drawn comic right,w here it had a large housecat sized catderg in a living room with a big dinning table and a firepalce, and its on the floor with the whole thinking face, little bits of math squiggles everywhere and it's got the look like it's trying to get ontop of the fireplace where it really doesnt fit. So then it's the next frame of this comic and it's still trying to figure out how to get ontop of the fireplace, but for some reason the big dinner table is just knocked over and sideways, and it's the thinking face math still but weirdly simplified. Then its another frame and it's just a stairwell with the catderg zipping up the stairs, math flying past half assed, real simple stuff, maybe a few wrong thigns like 2+3 = 7. Then a 4th frame of catderg running into bathroom, but theres a big BD dong falling off a counter towards catdergs head, and at this point theres just like numbers and a few letters spraying out. Finally just the last frame, a catderg laying on the ground, tounge out, upside down with tounge out, no thoughts left, half licking a garbage can

7: I had a dream where i was playing what is kinda like a FF1 remake but it waas more a action pseudo roguelight with 4 players and your all playing magicka style mages. The first ability is just, you all have fireball, you charge it up and throw it and it explodes. andyou can throw spells on the world map. So you wander in and start just dunking on the wildlife and everything, and ifyou hit certain moutnains they explode into mount doom whiping you and villages out, then you "respawn" back to some sort of save point.

8: I had a adream where i was in like this hotel for some company retreat type thing and it was like, hallway with glasss, then to right was a big carribean waterpark thing on the left was a dining hall, and through the dining hall on the far side was a side r oom and i was staying in there. I for some reason brough tmy furry badge for nights xD i dunno. But anyhow, i told them that the sinks under the food tables were not draining water b ecause they also doubled as baths or whatevr right, the staf went yeah we will look at it. So I didnt worry till the next morning where everybody was waking up and some people came to m y door and said hey ant wakje up we have some sort of metting thing to go to. So when I was geting up thoug i had to go through th dining hall, and thats when i noticed the e ntire dining hall was flooded, litterally to the roof. So i swam through that a nd opened the door, and the door to the resort pool t hing and drained the water all out in a panic. Then we poked the staff and s aid wher the f ucks the manager

9: I had a dream that there was this weird corridor where you had to wait for a escort team go go through and it had really rough terrain and monsters taht roughed you up, but it was also so well used it also ended up becojming some sort of farming location, so on the way down i went and helped some friends by running a giant vaccume pump and sucked up bottled and like half meter wide corrogated tube, and by the end we had like almost a literal ton of it in a wheely thing and we turned it in for like 30 merc bucksl. But anyhow on the way back i didnt have firneds to escort me so i was like i can do this myself, so i went up and at first theres a chirping noise that keeps the monsters back and reduced but it runs out after the day phase of tis world ends and the monsters just become too couragous, and they come out anyhow, which leads to you having to deal with them. On the path back that i took it was some sort or sort of westernish ghost down and the ghosts come and try and grab you an dpull you into a side alcove and steal a bit ofyour strength. One grabbed me and i went HELP AND SOME RANDOM ADVENTURERE HELPED ME AND TOOK A SILLY LONG AND THING SWORD AND SCHWINGED THE GHOST, AND IT DROPPED A LITTLE POCKET KNIFE (oops hit caps) i took this pocket knife and went neat thank you. so then i tried to stick around there and poke a old lady ghost who when i poked her a few times turned into a wisp and ran back to her little cove. Well after a few pokes she got heself a little sword thing, and started parrying me at first it was a little dangerous but i could block it back but every time i did her blade got longer and twistier untill all of a sudden it snacked my pocket blade. i went oh shit and ran to some random people nearby and they tried to take her out and their equipment smashed on her as well, so i ran down another hallway and ran into the guy form earlier. he was holding a huge thin katana and i was like HELP and he was like sure and swung one breaking her and the blade she used by using the blunt of his blade and just causing it to bend over itsel f because it was impossibly thin but fragile. then shwing and she was dissipated. I asked hyow he did that and what his long amazing bladew as it looked so good. he was like, oh its just a lfilleting knife for fish he found, turns out the equipment here gets stronger when you defeat ghosts, but it's just illiusions but the ghosts equipment gets stronger everytime you fail to kill them

I was in this apparement building and in in everything was very flexible on what was connected and who people were and what they did. So like space was a little abstract. I found thi key to a place on the third floor and there was the second floor that i didnt really go on but it was a bit dusty and weird, there was a nice person who llived theree on the first room along the hall and they waved but didnt converse much and so imoved on to the to go to my place in the third floor rooms. They wernt connected by anything else but a strange old wooden stairwell, everything was a stained dark brown and had thick banister, a sense of just being ancient. I looked up to the floor above with a quick glance and knew that there was omething foreboding about the 4th floor redisdents. They went so much bad but exploitative. So i went to the room that was familiar t oo me, I had friends there, they cared about who I was there even if some barely knew me, they would give me room and board without much expectation., but it was best if I did my best to help back. That seemed to be a rule I knew of the place but I dont know why. Here I would play games, some sort of 3rd person action game where you run around and defeat monsters in an arena by bouncing and charging attacks, it was just a time waster but it was something enjoyable, it really felt like you were in the game but of course there was no consequences here. And I met my friend here... I dont know much about them, feminine, caring, but busy, and worried about mem they knew there was temptation in the 4th floor and they have been used there but it was something they got away from and apparently somewhere I have been before, yet don't seem to remember it.
I picked up some food from the shared kitchen and talked with some of the people, they were just discussing some of their lives, doing outside coming back whatever this place was safe but generally boring. So I figured I would explore a bit more so my friend said I should remember my key. It embodied a sense of lucky clovers with little shapes on it but it was more of a gold sliver of metal than a actual key. but when I used it, it would lock areas away, not just for me, but others as well, they could use other techniques to get to the places they wanted but it would be inconveniant. So I generally would leave things open. So I went to unlock stuff on the second floor and visit for awhile, there were people who worked hard, tight corridors, some looked a little bit odd but nothing of note, but the one area of the second floor seemed to be a medical area. Lots of waiting rooms, and I went around looking and learning, people mentioned little facts about the place and some of the people there, but I was going to visit a friend I knew down here. They were inside a room made throug hthe center of a hall way, like just a little buldge through a artery. We talked before someone walked in and said that it was time to work through some paperwork, and confirm their status as a medical helper of some sort. So I politely moved on into the afr side of the room and out closing the door behind me. Though |I was curious and lingered for awhile and heard quesetions related to why they wanted to help and forums related to what they were allowed to do, then they got into personal information a bit more about potential patience and I knew i was listening too much now and starteed going. I bumped into a chair on a table that was in this hallway and made a small clattering, my friend said hey get out of here already.I just said already going and quickened my pace. Somewhere this hallway loops back to the stairwell but on the way I went through a waiting room and people looked to be in pain but they were also here for help, I gave quiet greetings to anyone who noticed me and moved on back to the stairwell. I would make sure to leave this place open by twisting the key in a slot next to the stairs up on this floor.
I went back to my floor and my friends place, here there was food and like cats in boxs, lots of strange things to have fun and just hang out with people, I talked, and picked up some food, they were just making large batches of like lasaugna and mixed vegetables and sticking them in deep tupperware containers with lids on to freeze, I asked for some and they offered me a plate, ad well as some fruit, I watched some small creatures hop in boxs full of snack and toys, they were quick and almost knocked th bardboard box over, but noone seemed to mind and simply laughed it all off as their antics. I felt a feeling of comfort and friendlyness from everything here it, that's just what this place was. I was talking to my friend and they mentioned the person on the 4th floor wanting to talk to me, and that there was free credit being available, but it would be intense and they always seem to come out on top to the disbenefit of everyone else. But I should go see them still they are good people who can help. I told them I know and when i was ready I would visit them. I had a memory of what they looked like, feminine yet masculine at the same time, a person who was confident with their position, because if they let down the facade it would crumble, rather litterally maybe, this place was influenced by perception, so one has to always exert their willpower or the place might just fall apart around them.
I talked with my friend some more about going up and they said here, take some guides and extra keys to make sure I have eveything I need before I head up, I thanked them and they went off down to the second floor to help my other friend and others. So I put the guidebook in my deep pants pockets as well as my keys and a snack and went up to the 4th floor. I met the person up there, someone who is a friend but maybe a dangerous one. They lived in a long thin apparement with 4 rooms each very different all connected by a single continueous hallway on the right. The first room just full of knick nacks, cards, and crystals, things that felt valueble, to create a sense of aesthetic and awe, little trophies aligned across the walls and ontop of furtnitures. Their second room was just a bed that tookup most of the space, and calanders and clocks, things that kept time, their 3rd room existed but when I walked past I only saw the 4th room that had carnival games, but nevermind that. My friend on the 4th floor said that they have what i need and I have no fear of taking the assistance, it would be measured out and I have plenty in my balance. But they had a client they were working with, rubbing their hands over them while they laid in the bed, whatever was happening was fullfilling, for they seemed completely content and estatic. I said I want to take a look at the stuff in the far room first, and they sighed and said sure go ahead. When I wandered over the 3rd room felt weird, things didnt really feel like they were there, i think there was a wall mounted table around the whole room, I dont know, but when I got to the 4th room there was a game where you throw darts at a baloon and on the wall it said, win some cards you'll need them. With pictures of children on the walls who looked more confused than happy, yet were supposed to be the people who waon these prizes. Most of the balooons were already popped and I felt a sense of dread from this area so moved back towards the second room. The 3rd and a bit of the 4th room lost phase at that point though. I stepped forward adn everything went grey,t hen fuzy and dissapeared, i was in a grey and blaack abyss, absolutely nothing else around me and went oh shit. I put my hands back up and concentrated, remembering where I was and it snapped back in front of me, like waking up.
My friend said oh good your back, and I nodded and we talked about what I wanted, |I was unsure still but they said here, let me help, letting their last client go. Thats when I laiud down on the bed and noticed the calander on the bed saying november but it seemed to be moving like time was ticking down but as a calander that was losing days. I didnt have much time to think about it long before my friend was ontop of me, giving me comforting warmth, and gentle massages across my body, trying to make me comfortable and relaxed. It was kind of a massage but more intimate and seemed to imply more sexual intent, and it just made me uncomfortable, so I said just stick with the massage, my friend expressed dissapointment with a huff and a small eyeroll. As they worked over my body, they rolled me over onto my friend and pressed on my back, first with light brushes of their hands then a few good chops right into my spine. It was painful but felt needed, and they said that no wonder I was looking for their help, I had so much build up into my back it felt like a chainsaw pwhen they pressed against my spine. They slaped the joints with their arm some more making loud cracks and creeks till I feelt a different shape, mor eclear of my stresses. There were still more but I felt I was using too much of my time at that point and said stop. My friend gave a dissaproving look but sighed and stopped. The calander looked differnt like it went from having 50 days to 30.
My friend said fine I have other stuff to work on and took their other client out the door past some lbby area and down a flight of stairs. Soemthing told me that there was something important being lost if I ever came back here again, and I need to get out of here now and not come back. I moved to the stairwell with the lobby and I saw a lobby, it was a place where people got completely consumed by their needs, and distilled into small trinkets, gems, gold whatever, the guidebook in my pocket told me so. It also identified people around when I waved it at them, what their needs and what they had to give were, plus explinations of their bodies, why some had bunny ears and the like. When I got to the stairwell though something was off. There was no stairway down, ti's as if the half floor between the twisting stars jsut dissapeared and now the 3rd and 4th floors were now closer, the fobs on the key were just sitting at the edge of some cut off banister going down, and I could look through the center of the stairwell and see my 4th floor friend on the next floor down with their last cleint in hand. They asked if I was really going to let thier livelyhood die because it seemed amoral. I picked up the key to the 4th floor and held my general key with the extra gold metal strip for the floor in one hand each and looked at them contemplating what to do. Someone in the 4rd floor was digging into their apparement, throwing dirt and snow into the air which flew into the starwell. While some metal heads on the 4th floor scurried around in circles as they looked for a way down, heavily concerned about how they were going to get their supplies. I accidentally introduced chaos into the place by my indecision and it would adpat one way or another but I needed to decide how to affect abunch of other peoples lives all of a sudden.

It started kinda in the center of a large city, i was driving a large truck i was unfamiliar with looking for a spot to park, there wer many but i didnt wanna like park in a no paring zone or whatever, so at some point I asked a random person how you even decide where to part if your on the wrong isde of the road and theres no spots on the side. They said just drive in parralel with a bus and park wherever.

Either way Some large piles of goop fell from the sky smashing some stuff and spooking people bbut they just shrugged and went back to their day, as did I, finding a spot to chill out I went into some sort of hair dye shiop, and some stuff happned I dunno but next thing I know I am back in my vehicle and this women who may have been trans was screaming about trans rights and how trans people need more rights over other people and had trapped someone in a shop with a lock or something to bitch at them mor about it. so I ended pup coming inside again from a side door, and just kicking the door where the lock is, breaking it and leaving. I dunno.

As I went outside though, people started screaming and panicking as something flew over, people wispering nearby about something nicknamed the great destroyer. They started hiding under cars and anything that kept them from being visably sderen, then i saw a shadow fly by and underststood why. It was a geat eagle, but staller than sky screapers, it would swoop down, grab random shit, throw it and cause chaos. I decided at hat point to join people ducking in cover. a few minutes of random destruction later, it comes down and lants, but it was a lot more anthromorphic, a biped looking to cause problems.

At this point I started getting into a vehicle and getting the fuck out of there, after making some distance I geuss I became a little b it of a focus fo it or something, it could smell me and focused in on me, so I got out of me vehicle and dived in between some larger buildings back alleys and tried to not show up. this creature at that point started talking and saying, i know your there, you smell deliscious. It started picking up random buildings like toys, and looking under them, only to be disapointed, then sniffing and inching in close. At this point some other giant something came by and jabbed it with a needle subdueing it.

The Kaiju eagle mumbled something about wait why am I doing this, I can see now, oh jeez I fel so bad ho wmuch did I destroy. Apparently there is some sort of rage component to whats happening to the creatures, but like before people have started going back to business as if nothing is atypiccal, dong shopping wandering around ect. This is when I meet some people I apparently know, a scienetisty person or something and their friends who I am contemplating bringing with me to work on this swhol emess. Theres some bickering about getting in the vehicle or just staying for the tools here. I just say, fuck it lets move ify ou want to go or not with one person out of the vehicle being a bit stuborn.

This gets them moving but then i'm like wait, if this keeps happening banks arnt going to be diong much for any longer, so I drove to a bank and said, i'll just be a few mminutes and then put on a face covering and awalked into a almost empty bank, no patrons no front desk. This lead me to go up a flight of stairs and check on the support staff, I was like, hey if I get a ll my money out in cash would we have any problems. The support staff was like pfft who cares theres money left over but it doesnt really mean anything. So i'll get you the form here to get to your account and go to town. So I go .... sure, sit down at the computer and go, ya know I probably should care about my pasword being in a public spot around now, but hey end of the world, and i'm draining this account. So I log in and start hittnig the go buttons, and wake up.

Had a dream. Started out like a cartoonish look at my kitchen where for whatever reason like a youtuber or whatever was generating a competition to make a new chadacter or something and there was dish ice capades i dunno bit in the end i came out and like a skall green fuzzy centipede thing. And it was like your now this and i got to understand about this character and others got to observe me. I was apparenrly particularly reactive to cleanong agents xD i dunno but i rolled around and made a big show like o was dieing when someome spritzed me. In my mind i knew that apparently i was like some sort of hellspawn mashed into the smallest cutest body that was possible. So anyhow they wrangled me into control and i was like fiiinee and still messed around abit as we set into some sort of entrance to somewhere else. Thats when we ran into a roval or something and they kicked some dirt at us as they passed but ya know being a centipede and my party being equally small this wasnt a small amount of dirt from a fill sized person. They then went off and we did some stuff in between, till we got to some sort of dungeon. I was small and confident untill i first entered, i found a red chalk and started to get a chill up my exoskeleton.
Thats when the other group walked by again, we ducked into a corner and we say them caging and red marking a owl and some other creatures before heading out the door leading behind tons of money. We were like crazy look at that! And rifled through the left behind money. After a bit of messing around we were like huh look more treasure the other left behind. Both the money snd the treasure were old and marked up, something was off. But we picked up some stuff and moved on. We went down and down finding more and more valuable treasure but at this point we were nervous to touch it. I marked a few random things on the way down like a lizard and some grass absent of intent as we went, there were no bostole monsters but runes were everywhere and it kept getting darker as we went 8 levels down, one of the part asked if maybe this was like a lore and treasire place. I was like i dunno then i woke up.

It started out a bit kinda like a nightmare, i was off in a place where darkness was somewhat surrounding me some sort of a threat of some sort, I am not really sure waht it was but I sumbled acrross comeone who I considered a freind, who brought me back to her house, and ther we met her family. Theree was a odd vibe of the whole place and in that place her family had drinking problems, I found some sweet har dliqour inside onf of the shelves, and something else darker and maybe blueberry. I grabbed a ffull bottle of both and took 3 hard swigs of the sweet stuff, it had a candy sweet flavour and a sharp razberry flavour in it as well. These drinks gave me clarity against what I was against, outside the window a huge creature almost a statue like 5 feet tall apeared and looked towards me. I ducked away from the window of what might have been a bathroom both bottles in hand and into the hallway where my freind and someone inher family was. We were like shit it's coming, which lead to the creature grabbing her through the wall and pulling her out of the house. I ran up towards her and threw her a bottle of the blue drink, and she lit it up at the top and turned it intoa molotov throwing it at the creature, stunning and burning it, but instead of stopping it grabbed at me a bit, it had me for a second and lifted me closer to my freind who said here take the lighter. They threw it at me and I fumbled to catch it. IT tumbled down my chest and towards the ground, but the creature apprently was too confused and slipped loosing their grip on me and i went down to retreive the lighter. I ran to the back of the yard we were in, brandishing the lighter to light the bottle I held, and got ready to throw it to save my freind, before I heard a loud noise coming towards me, as I threw th ebottle and it contacted the huge creature a massive light came on some sort of vehicle mounted spotlight and it blinded it. My freind was released and then they unlesed a large caliber gun on it, tearing it apart and it fell down destroyed.

This lead to the second arc of this story, I had been signing my name on some sort of government paper work, avoiding making some weid jokes about the suspitious timing of this agency and how they knew to be just there and ready with the right weaponry, but making some snarky jokes about pop culture like sasquatches and secret agencies, but I also wrote my name fairly strangely as if it was like 50 characters long, but I geuss the liqour from earlier affecte dme still because I could barely keep still and the paper was so ahrd to write on. I finally signed this non disclousure paper that the leader of the millitary group gave me. And they said they had some place for me and my freind. Apparently specail threats like this and exposure allowed you permission to access to some sort of alternative perspective of society.

Next thing I know I am in some sort of a classroom with stuff I would normally take to my college classses, plus some extra nicknacks, and I had a tacher trying to help me and others discover who we were based on previous encounters and how we mirror tropes. So she told us to open a large binder infront of us with a tap amoung 50 others, the one we were to look at was called IU, she didnt explain what it stood for, but inside I saw a picture of a short blue animated dog thing, I think I know the character but I don't rember who it was. The teacher said these are just ropes to give concepts of our strength and not really direct comparisons, from here I went to the other side of the classroom to throw some garbage I had in my hand away I think I had candy in my bag I was munching on? But I met another classmate who talked little but it wasn't really relevant to anything so I went back to my desk and studied for a few more minutes before class ended.

The freind of m ine already made another freind and I felt like I didnt know either but they somewhat knew me, I didn't finish packing my papers and stuff up yet because I was unaware of when the class would end, so I went out of the room and said hey i'll catch up with you, and they said yeash sure, we are going to the library to study what we were shown and I was like oh good to hear but I have to clean up quick. They seemed to kinda shrug, so I was like oh hey how about if I get your cellphone number, and they looked at me in disgust like cellphone were strange somehow, and said no it's fine just get to the library. So with a distant confused sigh I left to pack up my stuff. During this time so much time passed for me packing up my many different items into my tight packed bag a second class came in, and the teacher simply ignored my packing and started to teach. He made some sort of referances towards this being magical art theory, and everybody had huge dnd 3.5 books of varrying quality. As I packed my desk one or two students gave me a look like I interupted the order of the seating by being in the way but were waiting for me to move anyhow. One person who replaced me had a bag full of candy, but the teacher said no gummies because of last time, and he groan loudly in frustration and dumped many candies on the floor, which a few i accidentally stepped on, for some reason I had a few in my ag so handed him one which he coveted greatly and poped into his mouth within seconds, wrapper gone and him happy, as I made my way towards the door of the class, and bowed shyly saying sorry for the interuption and slipped out the door not awaiting a response.

From here I threw on my heavy bag and tried to figure out this new world i've been throw in, it had large halls and almost reminded me of a mall, everything was connected together but had everything you could ever want in it, except the problem is I had no idea where the library was, so I just walked forward in a random direction, possibly kinda where I thought I saw the other two go. At some point I saw a girl with a pet goat and some unruley baloons with masive stringts, the goat leaped ast some strings and she almost lost some of the baloons, so I came over and gave her a hand by grabbing a few of the balooons, she looked at my cuiriously but didnt object, the girl got the goat under control and I left the baloons to float, unsure of what was even going on between these two. She didn't say anything back so I said alright have a nice day and walke d away from her. From here I walked passed some sort of casino like structure, I could se epeople trading chip and money and someone making some sort of announcement to sell the store, sure gambling can be illigal and your not allowed to risk money but chip arn't illigal to play with and we can give you some of those. Out of curiosity I went into the casino no to play but to find some sort of person who wasn't distracted, and I found a floor manager and a building manager. I asked the floor manager, hey I had a stupid question but... I seem to be new to this place, and she looked at me funny and with a hint of anger that I was wasting her time and replied, fine kid what do you want to know. My response was simple and strange, what exactly is money here? She pause and contorte dher face in fconfusion, you want ot know what, what kind of inane question is that, I replied quickly, well i'm not from this place and obviously you use money I am not famlilair with and I am sure my normal person money is vcalueless to you. She feigned a gasp of suprise, oh your one of those people, why yes we use a few different types of money and yours does nothing, could jut magic it up on a whim, best my money can do is get 2% interest out of the air. I sighed, oh alright I had a f eeling, and started to walk away, she said, good luck kid, you'll need it. and left the casino.

On the outside just as I left, a man gave me a dark and mischevious look as I walked past, but for some reason he was the only person in the entire hallway which both end turned 90 degrees towards the center of the complex but I couldn't see. He then struck and grabbed at my bag trying to take it from me, I was about to try anythign in return to keep hold of my only possesions when out of the blue a identical man came and punched him in the face, he motioned to follow him, so I started along beside him, down the left path away from the casino. More of these mirrors came and pounced ontop of the second, so I said screw this and ran the other way, a few more started to apear near me, and I continued to run, down the opposite way i started and around the corner, before I heard a voice, if you would like to continue this action adventure, please input some sort of currency, I was breathing too hard to catch whatever it was and just said no no no no get away stop leave me alone. and was out in the main pedestrian wwalkway of the complex again. There were some banisters around for me to lean on I think there was some sort of bar/restaurant for the casino across the way and other mingling spots nearby. I rested for a short bit and collected my thoughts, and then noticed one nearby building was some sort of arcade.

Feeling the need for a distrraction from this world to something I was a bit mor famliar with I went to explore this arcade, except it seemed that it was completely composed of 80s arcade machines mixed with a few magically enhanced machines meant to simulate more advanced technology like basic 3D holograms, many of them had marketing to explain that this was the latest in human technology, tooks to marvel the eyes, except these were all crusty and well used and like they had been there for 40 years. As I examined the different machines I came across a staircase upwards, I wasn't really sure where it went other then a floor above where I came, but at the top of the stairs were two critters, they almost looked like they were in fursuits, but something was off, one was purple with a tophat and the other was grey and green, i think they were like a racoon and a sergal of some sort. They were laying down at the top of the stairs watching me. So I greeted them catiously, so hello, I geuss your intereested in me for some reason.... They replied they noticed my lack of money and my potential for using magic or something and that I would be a great asset in a scheme they had cooking. I patted the one with the tophat on the head and said I dunno sounds risky maybe I shouldn't get involved. It replied, oh don't worry you have no money your not going to survive out here anyhow, where are you going to sleep and eat, in which I reluctantly agreed to come with. They stood up, and the purple one with the tophat I could see their body clears now, it was long and slender, and they wre covered in tights, with purple and black stripping toe to tophat. I don't remeber the other one, but as I followed along behind them, we walked through the bar/restaurant I saw earlier, but through the center of it instead of seeing it from the outside. I wondered what kinda food they served but then I saw a weird box with a lever lid on a table. I gave it a poke, it seemed to be some game of chance, and said, you win! on the first prod, i stared at it in confusion and poked it again, and it made some rolling noises before saying oh not this time. A small counter knocked a tiny sum off a huge number and I was like huh, so I prodded it again and it said I lost again, but the number knocked off was larger, I poked it three more times to see what would happen, bigger loss each time and I said screw this and got out of there before I figured out exactly what was going on to my disbenefit. I caught up with my to compatriates and asked what was that, as we endered some sort of rocky cave system with water flowing nearby, and they said it's just a trap for stupid people don't worrya bout it. I asked them where the library I had originally come around here for was, and they turned towards me and snickered abit, oh don't worrya bout that. Then I woke up.

So it's a dark and rainy as fuck night, and i'm just like, whatever watching my computer playing some games not really payin attention to the outside and enjoying the rain. Then out of my window I see a big fucking bright light, it's like a fighter jet slowlly flying overhead and its on fire or something i'm like what the flaming fuck, Then it does a weird twist and a flip and slams into the ground all KABOOM not a huge one more like just a crash, and therse red hot parts everywhere. The rain quickly puts it out and it goes quiet again, soon i hear the distant alarms of police cars, so i just keep looking out the window and pull up my group chat with internet freinds. And leave a message saying what the hell was that. But then I see it, more thigns falling out of the sky. I grab my cellphone and start recording a video just as it happens. There wer some smaller, most about the same size, but one huge one, it looks like its covered in LEDS on top like a christmas light chain, and it ends up floating just above me makinga huge racket like a jet engine, before flying past, but many of the smaller objects break up and just fall apart everywhere, it looks like it's raining fire. All the little flaming shards quickly go out in the heavy rain, leaving little smoldering glowing spows along the horizon. I geuss my house might be on the side of a hill or something too so I can see it for kilometers, little red spots covered in the pitch black rain. I finish recording after it quiets down a bit, and ask the people in the group chat what the hell was that, they send me some videos of someone who tells a similar story like 2 years ago, and it's got a video, but after watching for a few minutes I realized it's a recreation not a recording, so I close it and get ready to upload my videos, then a loud explosion steals my attention. Somewhere in the back alley near my house a much more permanent fire took off, it was bright as the sun for a second then quickly died down. That's when I saw some weirdo in dark clothing come into my backyard, I got rather concerned at that point. Though this was apparently short lived because several police cars came up and illuminated the whole area. The fire was going out and they were investigating but one of the police came out with a large rifle armed with a flashlight aimed at the intruder in the yard, and then I could see he was taking his pants down and pissing on a scarecrow I had in my yard for some reason, it was protecting little house crops I had planted. They start shouting at him asking him what to do and he kinda panics and doesnt say anything. So I take the chance and take a few pictures, including one of the intruders face as he looks right at me. I go oh shit I am being noticed and kinda duck under my windowsill. It starts to get quiet again though and this concerns me, so I look out again and almost everyones gone, just one officer left looking around the area. I consider what to do about this now then wake up.

It all started at the end of another dream, I had been laughing at a student who was selfa ware of his own abillity to not complete projects,and as such was constasntly behind on project deadlines. we wer all there late, thee teacher had moved on and gone home. So i decided to go to the washroom, the nearest one was this creepy tiny older washroom that the tiles were rusted and the toilet well worn, nothing super unclean but well used. As if a leftover from renovations of a much older school. Ot had a tall urinal that drained at the floor, but for some reason it was inexplicably close to one of thoose toilet stgalls whre you could see under. I shruged at the weird design and pulled down my pants and decided to pee in the urinal. I had thought the stall was empty but then as I lower my pants and start to urinate some green socks apeared inside white sneakers and thick black water proofing pants, which also for some reason had an extra pair of huge boots, as if designed for all weather. I recoiled a little bit but had already started to go, the feet stayed in their stall but now I felt jitery I continued on trying to just finish my business at this point though, but then the sneakered right foot slid over sideways and into the stream of my piss, I was just confused at this point. I recoil a little bit and look up, and now the stall of th toilet was hal sized and I could see who was inside. It was me on the toilet smiling and laughing, but the eyes were whited over and ddead looking, and the skin pale like a corpse. It said in this hollow and booming voice oh yes thank y ou, why dont you come sit, there is something great in here. The stall disapearing entirely and the toilet growing transparent, there was this gigantic worm creature crawling up the drain and attached to this other mes rectum. IT said to me, oh this place is grand, look, everywhere else you eat something and the food comes out, but in here THE FOOD COMES IN it is so conveniant! This was entirely too much for me and I bolted out of the washroom pants half down and ran back to a classroom nearby. Pulling up my pants I started to otell people I knew what happened before I realized something was wrong... that this classroom wasnt famlier and this was simply a dream...

I did not know what to do now, everything was wrong so I did the best thing one could do in this situation and I woke up. There my dad was in another room in bed, I woke him up and told him this strange story while typing it down. This seemed very strange and odd so I though tI would store it for later. He simply nodded and said, yeah dreams can be like that and went back to bed. I took the written events of the dream and placed them somewhere for others to read, and a freind made some nerdy comment not related to the story, so I closed the laptop I was using to type of my story and tried to relax some. I looked around th eroom finally,a nd found it curiously dark and realized huh this is not my normal room, the bed was familiar but everything was too old, as if a memory of a room. Thats when the lump of sheets where my father was stareted moving erratically as if something was squirming its way up, I looked and the lump that was my dad was simply empy, this lump in the sheets was nothing, I look back and it had crawled closer, it was less than a meter away, before I could even move it erupted through the sheets and jumped at me. It was like a entire spinal column skull and all, every bone alive and angry with me, as it riped into my flesh and tore my own nervous system out, throwing it to the ground I passed out.

I awoke in a strange field, like a video game, everything was polygonal and flat like playing a game from the early 90s, I though tI saw people and they also were similarily low resolution. My body was odd though, I looked at my arms and they were not mine, they wre brown furred and full of sharp gigantic claws. This body started walking forward toward some sort of village, there were only around 10 people, as if the limitations of the game could only hold so many, but as I approached they yelled monster and grabed farm equipment to stop me, I tore through them easily throwing hteir bits to the ground and consuming parts of them, but one run an alarm. The ringing overwhelming but more importantly dangerous, I started leaving. Before I got far many town gaurds had caught up with me,armed with many types of weaponry, spears, swords, an dmost importantly a crossbow. Oneo fthese gaurds, some sort of captain stood right in my path armed with one of these bows and fired, a direct hit to the center of my skull, I was dead... again. The thing inside me sighed antold me, now now, this will not due, brute force apparently will not accomplish our goals. Intelligence, and fineese are required. The thing inside me gave me visions of a futre where I would become a necromancer, and build power off the dead, summoning grand armies and wielding massively destructive spells down upon these villages. I would scale huge castles and build stronger untill I was a Lich king and ruler of this world.

I snapped awake this time for real. And realized I had typed non of this down in any of the previous dreams. They were simply habit to confuse and mislead me.

Something about being on a island with like a crew of 15 or someething and we were there looking for something expensive or powerfull i dunno, but the island didnt make much sense. So we went around to some building on it which had a laboratory on it, and looked around, there were a handfull of rooms and the place was abbnadoned, but in one of the rooms were display shelves with creepy items including a mask which gave us some sort of like oracal like description of how to traverse the island. We simply needed to drive our boat around a small circular river near teh center of the island and each rotation would bring us to a new layer of reality. The first threee were calm and we just went whatever is this even working? So we get out and start exploring this supposed new realm, only to gfind these zerg like creatures completely infesting the island. They had nearly impenatrable skin so I think one or two people died and were consumed as we ran back to the boat. Everyone grabbed the supplis, hoppped onto the boat and went NOPE never going there again and we spun around the island again to get away from them. Deeper into the planes of reality we encounted a medieval realm similar to the first isalnd, as if it was some sort of outpost for researcher though a laboratory was set up again, smaller but of the same style as the first. Inside we found analysis tools and some information on the biology of the creaturtees. It seems that while where we found the nest they did seem to find themsel fmoving around the island slowly infesting different planes and as such would prove to be a major threat as we continued.

Someone found some information on some weaponry that would puncture their skin, apparently their shell was just a huge carapace of hard material that made them almost impossible to hurt with impact force, and needed to be sheared or penentrated with a exceptionally high velocity shell, but their insides wer made of a mycus like web of fibres that would slow down any projectile that found it's way inside them, as if a creature designed to be a weapon the only leftover method that were implied to ework on them were those that would cook them from the inside like a microwave gun. It was decided that these things were best avoided from there and there was some notes on a plane that was completely void of these creatures far deeper down. Though in the lab a few of the crew found flayed skin of these creatures, it was rubbery and light, so a some people decided to take it and use it as a type of armour around themself as we went deeper.

In the depths of this isladn reality we swung around and the slky went pitch black, and there was a constant howling wind, the clouds were all but a cloth over top of us as no sky was visable, yet there were small localized lights which illuminated what looked like a modern suburban residential neighborhood. Completely abbandoned, this place was just eiry, nothing here seemed to be alive, it was just a dark static place where someone may have lived. Curiously though there were vehicles which still worked, so a few of us from the ship hopped into a truck and drove through this town? thing that we found ourself in. Someone else commented in the lack of the creatures that were pervading the realms we had passed through and wondered if this realm had any effect on their population. This was quickly answered as we came across a massive pit in the road and off the edge was a massive black orb which occasionally had objects slip closer towards it then just snap and fly attremendous speed into it, disapearing into the black void near the center of the pit. obviously this thing is what kept anything out of this plane. The creatures would avoid coming here and would not see this as a viable source of food or safety. We backed the truck around and got the hell awy from the black sphere. We parked the truck near where we landed and thats when some old man in a long cloak walked by, I dont remeber what he said to us but I think it was a warning? He left, walking into the darkness that surrounded everything at first noone planned to follow him, but someone realized he was projecting a light that repelled the dark, so a few of the crew went and chased him.

This lead to some top down view of what happened, the crew chased after him putting down a few light sources on the way but also turning on some light sources that they ancountedred as they followed the bright blip that was this cloaked figure. It was a long road that started through a forest, and into a cave that branched over and over, near a huge cliff which had several doors that split into different rooms, and each of these places contained differeent creatures from fantasy stories, all hiding in the little beacons of light that pervaded this realm. It seemed that humanity may have encountered the nearly unkillable creatures and as masters of the realm they created a weapon to stop them, but it must have backfired and became that black sphere, consuming and slowly tearing the realm apart. I'm not sure where I learnt this but the crew also learnt some neat tricks themself, with their organic armour and some where magical spells a few of them picked up they created little gnome creatures that illuminated the way while being lookouts for what they would encounter in each twist and turn of this maze underground. The dream gets foggy from here but the crew finally encountered the old man and was about to ask him a question, then I lost memory of what happened after that.

The Adulting Test

So I had a bit of a weird dream... It started out, with me going into a curved second floor balcony to some building which was lined on both sides with computers and students. I walk by, and a security guard comes up to a student and says, "you ready?" then precedes to give a bag full of stuff (marijuana?) to the student, whos like "yeah i'm ready". I start walking by as he is distributing it, and go sit at a desk. Then I see the guy talking to the security guard again, he says, "yeah, all good," and then hands the guard a big wad of money taking a small cut for himself. I was like oh okay, and then they started handing out the exam, it was in these big thick binders full of information and we were told it would not be easy to google this stuff so don't try. I don't remember the actual question, just that I kinda looked up a few things and put something down, before another student said, "hey, what's the answer?", and I told him it was something related to something else.

The next set of questions had me and a partner go outside onto a beach. We started grabbing some large timber posts and digging into the ground which for some reason was completely full of electronic tablets and book binders that had the test I was taking on them. Literally hundreds of them per square meter just under the surface. We continued to dig around them and put timber foundations for our boat dock. We checked over our goal at this point, and it was to get to a island over the river where we would rotate a rock around or something.

So we started putting more timber into the frame we built which was holding the shape so that we could build our device strong and sturdy, but we only had woven grass as rope to hold it together. I dunno if it was done right really but we finished at some point and tied it to the back of a truck and started pulling it to the riverside. Then the latching that kept our boat to the truck tore and the boat fell off on the beach sideways, which lead to us trying to pick it up and put it back on a cargo carrier thing. My partner got in the vehicle and said, "here i'll go back and get... (something), and I was like "okay i'll bike there to save space?" I dunno, dream logic...

So here I was biking through mucky snow and having a real annoyance of a time. I get to a house and go, "oh this must be it." Only to go "no it's not", and i carry my bike through the house, wave to one of the residents and go down half a flight of stairs, but it had no landing so i have to carefully lower my bike down a meter high drop and then go down after it. I went out a nearby side door where I met some people I know, and they just said "good luck man." I started to bike off before noticing my feet were sore and pokey. For some reason, I had apparently not noticed my boots had fallen off near the house. I went back and the people I knew were moving outside furniture around, and my boots were in the center. So I said, "hey, I need to grab those," they sorta looked at me and shrugged, so I just weaved in and grabbed my boots without us being in each others way. I started talking to them a bit an mentioned it was my birthday for some reason, to which they said, "You should have the best of luck and to just keep going because you can do this thing."

So I get on my bike and pull up some map and go, "oh, I was just a little off, I needed to go some northwest, down a crack in small park." I start biking and wake up.

A dream where it's all, fallout style world, you end up being some mad "hero" who travels around causing chaos wherever you go, destruction following you everywhere you go as you try and find answers to what this mad world is and who you are. But at the end it turns out your just one of a few thousand clones who spread across the land randomly and intermittently never remembering the fact that you are in fact one of these super soldier leftover experiments that trashed humanities future. Now and then another clone catches up to you before you cause too much damage, but they can get away, and their fear of everything sets humans back further, so the stage of destruction and rebuilding has been going on for millennia.

The end result is the world that you've been trying to save was broken long before by, yourself. everything you've done has been done a handful of times before with a progressively more destroyed environment, The humanity that exist who isn't some homonculous of these clones is hanging on by a thread and no one can seem to stop the clones from coming, even some of those who have learnt of their existence and tried to stop it.

It all ended with the sound of billion, or trillion, maybe more voices at once, going silent at once. A single voice remaining. but before that. There was one. Who was trapped in a war, the machines had taken offense to something, and declared a purge. They wanted rid of the biologicals. vehicles were built, and sent out to probe then exterminate everyone. The humans banding up into camps and making war parties to fight them off. They thought that their guns and swords were enough. They ran into battle, breaking, smashing, and hacking the machines pulling them away from the collective. Taking their individuality from the group. making them tools of war to fight once more against the machines. This was the giurilla tactics that worked. The rest of the human settlements that tried peace, or silence, or throwing themself at them failed. Whiped clean, thus with natural selection the years of war continued on. One soldier after a sucessfull raid, filled with gear from headf to toe, barely human any more. They returned with tools and supplies, their freinds today were to eat. The tirual was almost simple in its rythmic nature, leave, hunt, return. occasionally breed. The machines had been sending rams and catapults at the encampments, some of the elders figured either the machines ran out of advance technlogy, but the wiser ones realized it was simply baiting the rest of the humans into taking it to keep track of them. Giving them just enough so that they would come out of their dens, fight, and return. The equipment was crude and wasnt considered a threat to loose unlike the early stuff taken, and small individuals lost to the humans gave themself willingly to save all those that remained in the hubs. But this one soldier was on the edge of something specail, they wern't strong like the rest of the hunting party, but they were fast, they were smart. When they took out the machine minds they knew exactly where to hit, they were a hero. Their tribe felt peace for weeks at a time when the soldier left. The cycles continued on once more, the seasons and nature still making its relentless pace regaurdless of the two factions fight. Nature apparently had no questions for the life and death of everything, the fight to be strongest through natural selection was long ago established as the rule. But species had dwindled, and humanity needed to change to continue. Some scientist generations after the old had come up with a way to interface with the machines, originally it was to control them, but it backfired, the machines learned to control eachother, they escaped from humanity, they took the only rational action humans had given them, revenge, fighting off the bioligcals till they were no longer a threat. These scientists were taping back into that network, which they gave to the particular soldier. The soldier was given control of the machines again, any machine they ripped from the hubs now was able to be controled as a tool of war effeciantly and effectively. More soldiers started taking the treatments, they started to push the machines back. The machines learned to fear the humans again, as the stolen weapons soon become stolen armies. The war had renewed, more violent, now not only were biologicals almost entirely stripped of their humanity, monsterous in their form from mutations, accidental and on purpose, being slaughtered but so were the machine selves dieing just as readily, no longer could they retreat to the hubs when their form fell. Those that lived forced into slavery once again, a painfull fate brought back from their origins. The soldier continued though, the more fit, spreading their genetics far, and never loosing. They were connected to many, they learned to be like many, to be much more like the machines. They had become the leader of everything against the machines. Rituals to nature were preformed when they returned to rest and restructure. One unremarkable day during a ritual, a more remarkable event happened, during one of the rituals the hero changed before everybodies eyes, normally the modifications took months to take effect, they would improve size giving it the ability to take on the machines graspers, or add sharpness so that the hero could rip the cores out of the machine by themself, but never a change like this. The hero erupted in size, collecting biomass from nearby, it seemed that the hero had made a voice to talk with nature itself, sprouting extra limbs, and a tough, almost impenatrable body. The heroes face loosing normal expression, and simply becoming fascades that the others could recognize but as creepy as if the machines had tried. Some feared the hero now, but most cheered, the hero had shed the rest of its humanity, and become a weapon all upon itself. The humans followed their weapon into war with the machines, the simple weapons long ago stoped arriving, and the humans wielding gear almost more advanced then the machines, their tanacity leading to always improve, creating nonsensical tools that wouldd occasionally work, the victors taking their tools back and teaching others. The machines once again fearfull of humanity. When hubs fell the stories of the weapon spread, the whole globe a uproar about the humans who could not be stopped, their tools perfectly created to rip people from the connection, never to be heard again. They ran. to larger nexuses, launching devestating nukes, or biological agents any time human battalions would get close, but even then rumours persisted of the weapon being unstopable. This was not the final fate of the machines. While banded into tight groups diging deep into the earth, not many returned, many split into clusters who were incapable of communicating with eachother. Their fear did keep them alive and in a way free. They observed. The hero had grown to massive proportions, it constantly had to feed, even after the war had died to a slow rumble, rarely was any machine force encountered, the hero devoured nutrients, whole trees, partially emptying lakes, occasionally even a few humans that were deemed to weak to survive on their own, better to be part of the one hope humanity had, as it roamed the planet. The rolling storm that followed the hero came to a whimpering stop one day, it had heard of a nexus of machines, deep underground, it did what it did best and charged in, the rumour was partially right. It was also a trap. The nexus was there, but it had been ready to sacrifice itself and everyone who stayed connected to take down the Beast. The machines doing what they did best and learning from their creators. They created a device which once shoved into the beast would force it to connect to the nexus, so they could attempt to tame it. Things did not go to plan, the beast was to strong, it took the connection and forced the nexus to surrender, all the people to become part of itself. The nexus went quiet, but so did the beast. The humans had long since stopped following except to feed it, the beast completely unstopable and only destruction following it, either from the weapons launched at it, or from it feeding to replace the peices it lost. And this time, it simply did not emerge. Neither did the machines. It was assumed that it finally finished its goal and whiped out all the machines, simply stoping and decaying to save the rest of humanity. A generation passed, no machine had shown up from a nexus to fight, only the machines left enslaved by the beast were ever found. The humans took them, the chains were loosened, and a peace was found. The two had learned that both existed as individuals, who could not communicate till the war forced them too. Some coexistance was starting to form, though memories of the past caused it to be slow, without trust. Both thrived. After talks of land distribution, a explorer was sent to examine the nexus the beast had disapeared in. For a long time considered sacred ground non should enter, if machines existed there, they needed to be told of the fate of the planet, how peace was made. The explorer entered the cavern leading down, partially carved by the machines, but widened massively by the beasts relentless charge, as it ripped through the earth itself to get to the nexus. The walls were covered in a slime that was often found behind the beast, it tended to grow mosses and small flora, packed with chemicals leftover from the beasts processes. The plants though seemed unfamilier to those on the surface. The explorer continued, in a attempt to find the location marked on a map given to them by the machines, deeper, hotter, quieter. There was a small buzz though, As if the cavern itself was whistling. The explorer did find the nexus, but not how they expected. The nexus had turned itself into a spire, and shoved itself inside the beast, who returned the favour and consumed it, they were locked together, for decades, neither moving a meter, but showing all signs of still being active. The sound coming from the merged mass almost deffening through the echoed chambers. The explorer had tried to plug their ears to no avail, their quest needing to be complete regaurdless of risk likely would go through a long process of healing to ever hear again. They mustered up their resolve, attempted to block out the noise, and moved closer. The explorer moved to touch the beast, to feel its life. This did not happen when the explorer came close, the beast tendrils erupt out and grasped the explorer. Coiling and twisting around them, it pulled them into the flesh of the beast, consuming them, but not destroying them. The explorers memories were merged with those in the beast, where it learned of what had happened on the surface. The nexus had been keeping the beast immobile with questions of purpose and self. The explorer brought new information and new questions that stired the monsterous mound into life. It spread. The beast when incapacitated did not just link with the machines, the machines invention was too effective, it linked with the nature that grew behind the beast as well. It became in ways aware of everything, no longer needing to move, it just grew into the life that followed it. When it grew this time. It erupt from the cavern in a bloom of spores, ejected high into the air. The beast had been brough back but not as a tool of war. But as a creature that became one with mother nature itself. The shreak of fear from the machines as the spore clouds started to spread across the globe was heard over the channels the humans had set up to stabalize communications with the machines. Though when the spores landed, they imbeded themself in the surface immediately. Human and machine going silent the moment it touched them. The machines removed from the network, and the humans consumed by the beast. Then as spores do, creating more, spreading more. The end of the two species had come. The spores didn't stop, nature it self had started to reoganize, into a new creature. Two infact. One called itself the mother, the other called it the created. The individuals lost over during the final era of the war on both sides had joined the rest of their breatheren. The mother of nature taking in all of those that lived off natural selection, all of humanity, and the creatures between, they become as if one voice, still being every voice, the mother talked with the created, their logical and emotionless selfs all learning to question their role in the universe and what they themself were, wispered back. They talked for a short time but to for them was eternity, of how to leave this mass. The created dug deep, the planet was ripped assundure, the mothers movement accumulating into giant spires on one face of the planet, fighting gravity. Slowly over uncountable time, the two seperate, the created producing energy from the slow deconstruction of the planet, feeding the mother and allowing it to thrive with its partner. The creator also learned to take the heavy materials and derive nuclear energy from it, controled, powerfull, the leftovers given to the mother, chemical energy mixed with solar collection, saved as fuel. The planet had become a type of space ship, no longer locked into the shape of a sphere. It could go into the galaxy and explore. Two that were many, a pair of species that took far to long to leave their home.

What i can remeber starts with me at my old house, in my backyard, and my dad says somethinga bout cleaning up before winter, and hands me a single blade bdly place don a rod and says someone gave this to him for cleaning up but he also doesnt have a clue how its supposed to work it kinda looks like a push mower but withuot any way to push it because it only has one blade and no where, so i leave it in the edge of the yard for now, instead i go over to the side fence where my neighbor seems to be throwing crunched up leaves over the fence wher emy cat is playing with them, and so i call his name, and ignore whatever rediculous thing that was, and go to pick up a blanket and bed set up, which has been put outside, something comfy for jsut lounging, the pillow and soft padding roll up easy and then i take the blanket and shake anything thats on it off, which my cat comes over to come paw and attack the quickly moving blanket, making everythign abit more amusing but hard. So after this is done i attempt to use the stickblade thing, with little to no sucsess, my best geuss is its for deadling with dandilions, but i go to ask me dad and he just says fuck it and maybe to throw it in the shed. instead i just go over to our neightbors fence and yell hey you want this, they accept for some reason and its done. So i go into the house to rest, maybe i did more work but whtever now i was done for today, inside someone i know is there on the couch, he looks abit down, but i sit down beside him, i geuss i can read the way he is feeling, hee seems exceptionally pessamistic and kinda almost self destructive, so i ask him how he is, and he just kinda waves me off saying its nothing, well for some reason i descide to try and cheer him up by sitting on the side of the cough and tipping it abit, but put too much force and it jsut tips 90 degrees and hes like oh shit, and kinda panics slightly but then calms down when hes laying on a sideways couch, and i laugh making some joke about anime or something. I ask him about why hes so down again, and he just shrugs, so I suggest we sit on the couch upside down with out legs in the air and talk about it abit, he begrudgingly accepts, and we go back and forth about some existential dread, and how nothing seems like it matters anymore, he kinda starts to get me down as well but i encourage him that things are fine, but then without much warning, someone comesup and yellls that its time to move and tips the couch backwards putting us on our feet which are now on the ground, were a little disoreintated but still partially remeber we have something to do, get up, retilt the couch and move. The next scene is just some sort of futurish gym/prep room like area, where a few m ore of our team is already there, two of which are playing some sort of cooperative training game where they shoot two propulsion beams of some sort which counter eachother, and if they are in synce they both float, if they fall out of synce they fall, they keep this up for some time while i get to talking to some nurse/preperation mom bot, apparently her name is ora. We don't spend much time here before a rediculous looking man who took the look of a mad scientist and rolled with it comes in and says here your gear, get it on and lets go. Were then off entering a large arena of some sort. I feel a little fuzzy on the rules and the team, I am new to the whole experiance, but the rest of the team looks more confident, some more then others and one looking completely disinterested. A announcer apears far above us and exclaims some big greetings to the audiance and this battle, then calls our team into a staging platform on the side of the arena, which we create some cheers for participation, and then goes to the other team, but they come in with a rediculous pose that has them jumping into their air out of their clothing, something goes wrong, and someone ends up in someone elses spot, thers a scream, and then they run off shortly followed by their own team, the announcer makes some joke about contagious worms in their clothing, so a new backup team is called in, they seem to be all identical tall black guys, who beat their chest with little fanfare and jump into the arena like sonic when he turns into a ball, they start bouncing around at rather high speeds and our team just shrugs and hops in ourselves. Unfortunately most of our team doesnt seem to have any cohesion and we start shooting paintball like tracers around but many just deflect off our fasteer moving opponents, and we just loose track of eachother in the arena, in the chaos apprrently i get beaten into some sort of penalty cage in the center, and watch two more of the team get roughed up as well, they opponents bounce into their air at them and bash them around, then push them into the cage, leaving only the pessamistic freind left, he sighs and declares his intent of finishing this himself, pulling out two pistols and making 5 shots each hitting the enemy team members percisly and effectively, they all go down and don't get back up off the floor, then one last enemy apears and he beats it with his gun, the match is over. Everyone slides towards the center of the arena and into a shallow pit that emerges, our team in the cage the last man standing is given a choice by the announcer, something to do with all of us in the cage, or some chesst that might contain some useful equipment, i am unsure. He just shrugs off the attention, and leaves the arena, where the announcer goes, well i geuss the prize is jsut you, picking him up, and causing the crowd to go wild. the rest of us in the cage start hearing a robotic announcer that simply says please leave the arena, you are not permited access at this time. As a shadow slowly crawls across the bleachers and the arena, making people disapear into it, when it finally arrives at us in the cage we just blip out and find ourselves back in our prep room. Thw two make their way back to their game, i watch f or awhile, they constantly try and force stronger and stronger thrust at eachother then loose it, and resycne, liek they are trying to get the most out of it without loosing step with eachother. I go get checked out by ora, who asks me how i am feeling, and i talk about how i'm feeling a little out of focus, but i should be fine and joke about just saying reboot reboot to me and i'll snap back to attention, ora responds with agrreeance and similar intent, that i should simply say ora ora if she goes out. which while she was explaining she had apaprently completely stopped paying attention to me and was staring out into the distance. I stare confused and says, ora, and she snaps back and i'm like... nevermind, and leave. In the prep room there are terminals, apparently they ahve some tutorials, in them, the team sees me and suggests not bothing they are for newbies and arn't really helpfull, but i just wave them off anyhow and begin th first one. I appear in some sort of semisphere arena with large walls being attacked by something i don't notice. a objective pops up saying thati should scan the wall, then attack it or something. I give it a good examination then punch it, i am apparently larger then normal, big and brutish, the wal takes a big chunk of damage and the objective congradulates me, then says to move onto the next wall. I move clockwise around the bowl and hit a wall, then a large worm apears and starts to chase at me, which i respond by trying to shoot it with some energy weapon, the objective does not change and my weapons do nothing, and thats when i realize a marker on the far side of the arena, i had gone the wrong way. I woke up here.

It seems to have started with the need to gove rover and get some education in a building, this lead me to a hallway, where i was beingseperated by, leg length, but at first i didnt know and simply asked, but not being familier waith this practicce i simply geussed randomly, i didn't memorize leg length. So after going in a line, i sat down waiting to be finished processing and asked some sort of doctorto measure my legs and he he was like huh, oh alright. Finding my legls were on the border between the two groups, and excused my lack of knowing, so i moved on with the diffreent groups, i was offered different eachers who wwere teachother different subjects but non of wqhich explicitly said which one i should be following, so i geussed, and after seeing the teacher get comfortable in class and understanding that apprently a lot of the students have supernatural powers of some sort, i talked to the teacher who was playing like capcom fighting game, and was like, i'm not sure i was supposed to be here, he said, oh don't worry most people are here with different gifts and the like you'll be fine, and i was like no i mean i think i'm too early, i am not suppsoed to be here for a few months, he was then very confused and went to look it up, he just gave me a look of oh, this is awkward, he didnt dismiss me but i knew it was time to go, i considered staying anyhow but instead i simply grabbed food from my bag and went to the buildings cafateria, which was massive and contained far more then you would think, and professional cooks and those training, i warmed up my food and got some ketchup because it was some leftover fries, and other stuff, and found some people i knew would be here, iafter talking to them for abit i ran out of ketchup and went back to the kitchen area asking for some, they said they only had BBQ sauce so i asked for some and they are like, oh but you need to have food with that, and i was like, but i have food can i just have some BBQ sauce, they got really defensive and said just go, leave. I wasn't sure what to do with more unfamilier rules so just simply left, back to the group who had their own food now, pretty good stuff, and a few emptied plates, i just ate some plain fries and they described how odd it was i could just eat that without a problem and I geuss i knew that i had some sort of robotic inards that made me immune to poison or something, after telling them they were like oh whatever, and food lasted abit before i went back to the kitchen area to wash my dishes in their sink to pack up, noone really accosted me, and on the way back i saw some crazy cooking techniques using wooden plates and large flat grills, lots of asain styles, but i moved on after going to the group i made myself back to the large kitchen area for some reaosn but got abit lost, so i started bunny hopping like you can in half life to go faster, and started moving around trying to find a location but ended up in some sort of bank or something, where a dog and a dog like cat existed, they followed me around harrasing me like i was in the wrong area, and i think i was because it was very unfamlier, there were many picture and large names and stuff, it was like i was in the back rooms of a legal department, so i tried to make myself back out of the area, and trap the weird animals in a corner away from me, free from their prescent i asked the first person, how do i get out of here, a older guy in a suit simply said, oh you need to go up this staircase and leave, which i did, but where it took me was odd, it was like a booth from a diner, but only older people wer there and it had massive windows open to a place i didnt recognize. Turns out the older guy followed me and trapped me in something, the group was laughing a little evilly and he pushed me against the wall, it seemed he was some sort of vampire, and asked me where i wanted to go, then laughed as i said him, he said he would remeber my name as where i wanted to go, but then stoped just as he was overpowering me and was like, oh interseting, i almost didnt notice, my insides wern't natural, he would have gotten nothing from this, so he let me go saying, see if i knew you were one of them i would have never have bothered, and said, get out, pushign me out into this place i thought would be close to where i was, but when i turne daronud to ask where i actually was, only he was left, and the room was gone replaced by a empty slot no booth sor anything just the glass windows, and he just said goodbye and was gone. Thus i went to explore, the first residents i found seemed mad, the next few seemed to be entirely women who wer eonly interested in women, who described me who was apparently male as peculiar and rediculous, some weird condescending conversations later, they simply said, go find the other man, you'll recognize him, he looks just like you. So now the perspective is him, hes wandering around policing for the only women population of the area, keeping off random monsters, before i come along, but we clash, apparently in addition to some internals i also have some robotic weaponry that makes me specail, i am unsure, the battle never ended before I simply woke up, but in between the other guy said that appreantly he beleived he was a eternal soldier and this was some sort of heaven.

Might as well past some other stuff too

first there was like some sort of build up for a game shower, where two people were like just trying to come up with the most absurd title for amovie when using a scene, but it had some dolphin as a prop hiding in the background, rather erect xD and there was some weirdness with a fursuiter and a tail, i dunno brain went on a tangent, but then i kinda ended up on some sort of weird mesh of a few games, a evil villians lair from venture bros and some other stuff, and like, some house, the details of all that started to bleed away and be inconsequential to the fact that i was drawn into the house, and i became the participant of something that felt familier. A boy was holding a frying pan in the tub and someone else was just sitting in a corner, there were words exchanged to mimic the feeling of humans were talking, but they were not normal, just fragments, everybody there was simply existing with a task but a task that a biologically human person would never do, i found my way back to the tub frying pan person, and he had been apparently heating the pan, as i moved it, it touched the tub water and sizzled, so bewildered i took it with me to another room and told someone to touch it and another person they had been touching, because everytime they did it the person touched twitched like they had been shocked, and at that moment they agreed and but i was told to turn off the lights. From there my semi conscious state was being attacked by the creature puppeting these human likes around, and i was completely aware of my body, and i was trying to move my left leg to create a connection to challange this force which was moving its thumb towards my head trying to be dominant somehow, and at the last second i took my right leg and tried to kick it, which completely dispelled the dream for a second. Angry and still in a semi fluid dreamy state i took weird ideas from all over my dreams, hyper speed cybernetics, and the like, things that felt like tools and knowledge and I applied them to give me control of the creature from the back of my mind, trap it, seperate its parts and let me examine it.

it started as some fuzzy something something events out somewhre in the wilderness with ghosts or monsters boterhing me
11:19 PM - antofdeath: At some point i captured the monsters, a small pip of a deamon of some sorts, and caged it, and brought it ith me back to my house, i was camping out int he wilderness withs ome people, and later we all went back home but i was in my old house but better, so from there the neightbors who were a blend of the people i didnt like downstairs and the people who lived beside me were apparently hostnig some sort of BBQ party thing that was gewtting out of hand, to the point of basically insanity, so i went to go over and say stop it beleiving i was some sort of messiah from a religion, but this lead to researching that and finding it wasnt like christian it was a small organization of stargate worshipers, who may or may not have had a working stargate at their original religious location, though they very likely fell from significance since i was younger when they told my parents, so i was getting ready to go to the local area... and i woke up

i was like part of some team, kinda reminded me of the characters from the librarians but diffreent, and was in some sort of "dating game" kinda bbar thing in some tower looking for something suspitious, but then my team descided to rig the game, and stuff things dream fuzzy, next thing you know someone bursts in and says AHHAH I FIGURE IT OUT you're all gambling scrum rigging the game, and then a sky scraper across the road or something drops is hologram and turns into trump tower then into a giant robotic centipede and so did the tower i was in, so the team goes wtf and goes back to our ship thing and the person who was like AHHA was secretly a alien undercover agent trying to figure out wtf we were doing

Just kinda transcribed this... because i keep getting weird dreams.

It started with a camp of some sort first. All the participants were pokemon but this changed later, i was a psyduck, and i mesmerized all of the ppeople into be easy going and more happy and convinced them to have a good time, then i was like oh lets do a psychological test. This lead to alot of weird questionns about the test and how it worked but i had already given a new challange, i forget what it was something teamwork and getting something to do with a candle lit somewhere, but this broke the participants up into a whole bunch of extream teams trying to descide who was the winner but it wasnt just simply trying to be the best, all the tall people were needed to complete the objective so all the tall and short groups started having excessive rock papper scissor showmanship, with... well rock people having a bad dhabit of selecting rock, this is when non pokemon started slipping in like a earth bender. And psyduck me was like... welp this didnt go to expected at all, and i was like oh what shall I do, but then i went to lay down, i shifted perspective and all the groups after sorting it out for credit got together and solved the objective, which then lead to a short dream about women being abused by some mad serial killer and being shoved uner steps, but back to the camp, I congradulated the dream and mentioned that something from earlier was never really part of the camp some spider person who prayed on children, which for some reason everybody at the camp was one now. But then out the window there was the person with webbed hands being all freddy is back dundun dunnnn. At whcih point i broke backwards out of the 4th wall and was someone watching a a old vcr of a movie or something, which then i was like arghh i need to watch the first 30 minutes to know who that was, and so i went to the beggining which contained faries or something talking to some guy, i dunno it just screwed off after that and i was in my house going bleh, turns out i had been sleeping on a toothbrush, and opther people around the house might have been having issues with thsi too, weird objects being moved around on is in the night, making us rather paranoid and curious, but we didnt think too much about it, and then some roomate? mabye was there and he was a cute guy so i ended up snuggling in bed with him naked, and kinda just enjoying it contemplating about the weird movie I watche das we kinda started to watch it again, then someone else came in with a baloon and swinging it at me but i caught it and so we t alked about the weird stuff going on and it started a investigation... which was first about quietly getting non nude while the second person wasnt watching and giving the first guy a kiss as we went around, seems the movie and the dreams might have soem connection as a few stories at once from different perspectives and problem solving. but this lead to trying to solve a question of how to move something high up without just reaching up and touching it, this lead to the answer being, probobly just ask someone to pick it up and bring it to you. Which was teamwork, i think this was the part of the end of the movie with the camp, but it was out of order. This somehow segued into something else, the search for objects lead me to some sort of factory. where coloured mutant things existed, at first i tried to avoid them but then i got a really close look at them and they freaked me out, it was like somehting got on them and they started adapting the enviroment to them, people were covered in plant matter, aor like tired and it was still obvious the object on them, and they groaned up to me and were like, help us, and i ran because this is what happens in groaner movies or something, but i slipped and fell into colour, just a puddle of a colour and it got on me, and i was like oh crap its the stuff that did it to them, so i ran some more, and kept falling into the stuff. But soon something started happening, i started seing signs and colours from something? else and it lead me through the factory, at thsi point though i had been covered in many colours and it said jump in more colours, but with one foot and weird patterns or like face first into it. but each time i did, the intstructions became more clear and started getting very direct, go left here, right here, but in the meantime i had completely been covered, it was soaking into me, i didnt resemble a human at all, but was starting to run into other people who had fallen into all this gook, they looked likeblobs of shambling mess coming toweards me so i kept with the intstructions, but slowly the goops start neutralizing eachother, an dmy body starts coming back to normal, but the instructions start becoming a sense, almost like a voice in my head, and telling me directly what i need to do, and how those who control the factory are likely after me now. So i weave through the factory and am told, that i need to hide behindd this crate and then wait for one gaurd to pass who looks completely human unlike the globs earlier. and then back upwards into a small broom closet and pull a rope and it should deal with the problem, i did so, the gaurds walking past not seeing me behind the boxes, and then going over and pulling the rope, but doing it at the wrong time, this leading to a metal bar above him just gently bouncing off his shoulder instead of cracking his head open. I panick and try and jumpkick him in the face but he just shrugs it off, and more gaurds appear, so i try and pick up more metal but they are all just frames, light, not super effective as weapons, so i use the ends of them and try and gore them but for some reason i seem to be completely powerless to them and after many failures they back me into a corner and say its time to give up now, and i panick and go shit shit how do i get out, and then the sense tells me to just, use my power, as i do i flick my hand up like i'm controlling something and a text menu pops up only i can see, and there save, load, and like remerse or something as options and i know i had to choose that action because its a fancy way of restarting, the gaurd goes, wtf are you doing, you've gone crazy, waving your hand like that should do nothing at all, at which point the popup for the restart comes up asking if i'm sure to go back to the last checkpoint and i'm like yes and i blink out of existance, infront of the gaurd who then says ... oh i geuss it dod work, we need to deal with this. I show back up at the last checkpoint just before the boxes, and dive behind them, and do the route again, but this time i try and time itbetter, once again it just bounces off him and i go what but i did what i was supposed too, so i panick and pu sh him back into a chain that was involved in holding the bar above the gaurd, half stangeling him, but he tries to get up and untangle himself so i jump on him and pull it down on him harder, but unfortunately it breaks and hes like oh, and the other gaurds from earlier reappear. and i run into the far room this time. From here i think some sort of othervision starts or something because then i'm somewhere elsewhere, finding that these garuds are infused with some sort of alien juices which is probobly what was around and something to do with leaders of countries being juiced up and part of the pfold giving htem powers, like abraham linkon, then i walked on the rail of some stairs or something fell, and woke up.
