This one's pretty strange, because the first two thirds of its duration were about me walking across a barely inhabited part of my city. Namely, I was walking on a road located in the northernmost end of the central crossroad of the avenue (in real life, you can stand next to one of the semaphores of that crossroad and look north to see the horizon where the path I was in starts). It's been several years since last time my family and I were driving across that road, so my real-life memory on it is vague and thus the dream portrayed it as a decrepit path. Much of that part of the dream was about me leisurely walking in it, but at one point I did try to get back home... and I was just stuck there.
But somehow, I managed to return to the civilization (I can't remember how, because the dream simply omitted that). I was now walking next to where a high school is (not too far from where my late maternal grandmother used to live). The strange thing is that, when I approached the entrance, I saw two anthropomorphic animals (a bull and a rhino) fight fiercely, all while the Rambi theme from Donkey Kong 64 was playing. It turns out those animals were Rick Mitchell and Emmet Brown, who had been transformed due to an experiment's accident where they and E. Gadd were involved. Marty McFly was close to them, concerned about Brown's safety.

Last night, I had a dream that Disney made a series of cheaply-animated internet shorts based on Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers to promote the movie. It had an entirely different voice cast. I think it was outsourced to Africa or something. It was like that one series of Mickey shorts on Disney+ that was outsourced to either India or the Philippines (does anyone else know of these? I hope I'm not crazy).

For some reason, I'll sometimes have nightmares about me being uncharacteristically confrontational. I've had two separate dreams where I've said some one-liner and pushed someone over. In one of them, the one-liner was "So's your MUM!" and in the other it was "Learn basic biology!"
For every low there is a high.

Dreamt that I made a Trope Pantheons profile for Gabriel ULTRAKILL. I think V1 had their own profile too?
I woke up today thinking of Minos/Gabriel... hm.
Danger! Wall of Text!
I spent most of Friday and Saturday sleeping, so I had a lot of dreams, which I wrote down when I could.
Dream 1: I was designing some game (the project name was "Grandia IV") where there was a main character named Shane, whose friend Ellen was kidnapped 13 years prior (they were both 7 at that time). But fate was most cruel when Ellen was sent to assassinate Shane (she didn't remember her past) and Shane was sent to eliminate an assassin. Neither died, at least. Shane used a sword, Ellen used daggers (and, typical for most female characters I think up, wore a gas mask and evening gloves and thigh-highs). I think there were two other characters named Xavier and Yva, but I'm not sure.
Dream 2: I was at school (in my winter uniform) and the boys and the girls were separated for some reason. Our class rooms had screens indicating how many students were inside, and the teachers limited this to 40 students as we were going to write some or other exam. For some reason, the class I was in had a post-apocalyptic theme, complete with the teacher wearing a gas mask.
Dream 3: I was reading a newspaper. I vaguely remember the headlines read something like "Hedgehog eaten by fire-breathing cat", though I'm not sure what led to that…
Dream 4: I was designing some game (the project name was "Grandia IV" again), but this time, Ellen used a gaseous form of holy water to get rid of a horde of ghouls in a town, and all that remained was the clothing of the villagers - who would turn into ghouls at night, but back to normal during the day. Ellen herself was thrown off a roof by a vicious and malicious and capricious vampire dude dressed like a… female Dark Hunter from the Etrian Odyssey games. Shane was also thrown through a window by the ghouls.
Dream 5: I was being serenaded by three gas mask-wearing bunny girls in evening gloves and thigh-highs. Based on their voices, I'm guessing it was my three beloved girlfriends.
Dream 6: I was duelling against Vapour Soul OS, who was clad in armour like Wikstrom from Pokémon X and Y (except black and red and purple), he had the face of Yusei, and an even crazier hairstyle (let's just say it looked like a fusion of the hairstyles of all the Yu-Gi-Oh! protagonists to date combined with that of Super Saiyan 3 Goku and rainbow-coloured too).
I had a Trap Card on the field ("Draining Shield"), and nothing more (the other cards in my hand were all Level 5+ monsters). King brought out "Chaos Summoning Beast" and used its effect to bring out "Raviel, Lord of Phantasms", paid 3000 Life Points to summon "The Ascended of Thunder", equipped "Raviel" with "Megamorph" (4000 ATK -> 8000), used "Mystical Space Typhoon" to destroy my "Draining Shield", and proceeded to defeat me in his first turn. The next card I would've drawn? "Vase of Greed", which (so far I know) doesn't exist and would've allowed me to draw 4 cards from my deck (just like that).
Dream 7: I was falling, falling, falling into what seemed like an eternal abyss, but eventually landed on a crystalline platform. There was a woman in a black coat, which was unzipped and had no sleeves, revealing black lingerie, shoulder-length gloves, and thigh-high boots. I could hear her breathing through a gas mask. She gave me a choice between really weird Lay's flavours ("Ghost Cheese and Vinegar", "Tomato, Chutney and Ghost Teriyaki", "Durban Curry and Smoked Beef Intrusion", "Strawberry and Bacon", "Creamy Chocolate and Snail", "Bondage Sandwich and Apricot" and "Hotdog and Deeper Fried Gengar" flavours). After I chose the least weirdest flavour of the lot, she summoned a Keyblade with a crescent moon theme, calling it the "Eternium Crescent", and revealed that she worked not for the Master of Masters or the Master of Masters of Masters, but for the Master of Masters of Masters of Masters (yes, that's a mouthful). And underneath the gas mask, it was my own mother!
She summoned some sort of bizarre Dream Eater/Heartless/Nobody/Unversed hybrid calling itself "the Hyper-Eternal Doom Overlord King Astrageddon", which had like 300 health bars (!?), immunity to all elements, the ability to steal healing effects, and shape-shifting. What a mess that was. As I battled it, there were some unusual background events going on that I noticed…
- Super Saiyan Blue Hitler fighting against Shay Obsidian, who had Slifer, Ra and Obelisk on the field.
- A Keyblade wielder named Ignis getting chased by a plethora of adorable Pikachu.
- A little girl, blonde with green eyes, clad in hues of orange, attired in tights and "glovetights" (I don't think there's an actual name for such a garment yet but it's basically like an undershirt and gloves combined, I guess), playing all sorts of silly pranks on an armoured man.
So… yeah. I've had a crazily busy time in the dream world, I guess. "What ails you, my friend? Stay a while, and listen~"
I was ripping off my fingers.

I'm not sure if this counts but I woke up thinking Super Smash bros had a 2nd fighter that was almost just like Zero-Suit Samus but intensely worse.
I dreamed of myself, my three girlfriends, the kid sister of one of my girlfriends, her two girlfriends, my twin sister and her girlfriend, and four of my friends from my forums formed a new Organization XIII. Our goal was apparently to take over the world in order to get more video games for the franchises we liked.
Uhhh. Okay?
Just very sore from sleeping so much, though since my cat slept on top of me, I think it was worth it. ^^; "What ails you, my friend? Stay a while, and listen~"

I don't remember the specifics but I remember that I knew I was dreaming and was very mad at how unrealistic it was.

I don't remember the finer details by this point, but I dreamed that Doctor Strange was confirmed to appear in Lightyear because...uh...I dunno why.

OK, this one is long, weird and creepy.
I get somehow an imported foreign Disney comic. I read it and starts with regular stories, but then... a very strange story happens.
In this story, multiple Nintendo characters appear as background characters for some reason. I don't remember the details of most of the story, but the climax involved Mickey, Donald and Goofy piloting a Humongous Mecha and fighting against some creature I couldn't get the look of. At a certain point Donald suggests a strategy to defeat the monster, that he claims he took from some comic book about a sea captain fighting monsters (a panel of this comic within a comic is shown and features a fishing boat fighting against what looks like Chernabog but with John Cena's face). The strategy works... but to do it, many people have to sacrifice their lives. The remainder of the comic is scenes of Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Minnie, Daisy, Clarabelle, Huey, Dewey and Louie melting into puddles of tar. The comic ends with live action pictures of two girls cosplaying as Princess Peach and Princess Daisy reading the comic, then in the next panels they poof out and turn into... well... a peach and a daisy.
The dream goes on with me going to participate at tryouts for some TV show. I go to the train station... that is completely deserted. I still get to the place because I know a certain someone who worked on TV some time ago (fun fact: it's a real person but in real life the only connection between me and her is that I follow her on Instagram) who comes down from wherever she lives to accompany me to the studios. In the meantime I read more of that comic and I find a story where Donald and his nephews are participating in a movie casting. The comic features a scene about Pokémon with a guy trying to catch an Abra and failing. Somehow I recognized the scene as a faithful recreation of a cutscene from Pokémon Yellow.
Number one fan of characters that appear only once and ultimately were a recurring character either in disguise or trying a new image.

I dreamed that there was this scandalous trial going on, and it somehow caused a computer virus to infect people’s electronics that caused an endless loop of a woman screaming. :S
Also, one of my favorite levels from the first Quake wasn’t quite the same as I remember it… and it ended with me dying after what was originally a fun and suspenseful moment went very well. x_x

Last night I had two dreams, because I woke up at 5:30 am in-between.
When I woke up (this was still part of the dream, I found myself in what seemed to be an adult-sized cradle, and I wore nothing but adult diapers; I got up quickly, and a muscle man with a face very reminiscene of my brother's BFF was walking past me, as someone was ringing the entrance door's bell. The house had a very elegant appearance, but something was definitely off there (I didn't know where I was or how I got there, for starters), but I tried to escape while the man was distracted. Unfortunately, he noticed me being awake and close to the back door, so he walked (without running) rapidly towards me. During this whole scene, a suspenseful theme could be heard, and it began speeding up as the man approached me. I woke up when I was about to exit the house. I was horrified, and didn't want to sleep again, but did so after going to the bathroom to urinate.
See, we were outside Venezuela (yup, another dream fueled by wistful nostalgia), though I can't tell where we were exactly. Judging by the presence of lush, grassy dunes and some tall mushrooms, it appeared to be based on Hyrule Ridge from Breath of the Wild. My family was busy doing assorted stuff, I was doing a walk around to know more around the place, until I approached a house where Yuzuru Nihimiya was residing (the house was shaped like a large mushroom, not unlike the Toad Houses in the Mario series) and it was being attacked by the Helmaroc King. The poor girl was horrified. I was no hero, unlike Link, so all I could do to help Yuzuru was throw some stones at the large bird monster to aggro it. I was sure that I'd be a dead man, but luckily it simply ran away. Yuzuru approached me and thanked me. He told me he was taking a vacation alone, as Shoko and Shoya were having a date elsewhere (in the manga and the movie, they're implied to end up together). Obviously, she wouldn't be able to confront the HK alone, so the dream showed a brief collage of the days when I visited her and drove away the bird whenever it approached. The dream never explained why it was attacking that'' house, Then again, it was a dream, so....
Near the end of the dream, some cops helped us kill the bird for good. Everybody present applauded the feat, but my family and I had to depart soon to another touristic destination. We were residing in a nice estate not too far from where the hills and mushrooms were. During the night of the last day, my father old me that "the girl you helped" wanted to see me one final time. She wanted to bid me farewell with a neat dinner. It was Japanese food, so it was the first time I would try it (i.e. the zeroth time overall, because unfortunately I nevr ate it in real life, and I doubt I'll ever have the chance to). The girl was looking at me very bashfully. When I woke up (in real life), I got the impression that she was having a Precocious Crush on me, though for obvious reasons I would have been unable to reciprocate.
Ahhh, two fascinating dreams.

Last night, I dreamed that I got some new job at some sort of diner/bakery/etc place, it was cute and small, but incredibly busy, and I had to go in following some weird family party where I remember just feeling sick the whole time, but anyway suddenly this place was more like a very tiny emergency room and I don't know what I was actually doing, just running around in circles, because I'm not a doctor. And there was more family stuff, like those plot threads kept going back and forth, but the job part is more memorable.

Had a dream last night where I was in a horror movie, but I was the first to die so I don't know how it ended or who the killer was. So mad. I didn't even get to see anyone else get killed. Or who the Final Girl was

A couple nights ago, I had a weird dream where I was walking around a nearly empty field at night. The only thing in the field was a house, so I decided to go in because "Hey it's a dream. I can probably go in and nothing bad will happen." Turns out right outside the window was, for some reason, Mr. Noseybonk. Let's just say it turned into a nightmare pretty freakin quick.
Help me. I can't get it out of my head.
Was raiding inside Final Fantasy XIV. It was a 24-man raid. The first two phases had us protecting an NPC, aka Final Fantasy Brave Exvius' take on Siren, though there weren't bosses as far as I could recall. After the second phase, she disappeared, and the whole raid went up this ramp tunnel and wound up on a balcony overlooking a giant lava pool. Siren showed up, said something about feeling bad about lying to us, and then she turned targetable as a boss. I remember being very upset about the whole thing.

Long one.
So, one day a bunch of people were transported to an island in the middle of nowhere. Curiously, the island is well-stocked with supplies and even has random kids that some of the adults adopt. Speaking of the cast, we have:
Spider-Man from the Raimi films and Aunt May from the MCU films.
One of my elementary teachers as, supposedly, JFK's secretary of state
Me, though I only really did stuff towards the end
Marle from Chrono Trigger
And some other people
So anyway, people start coming across weird stuff, like a plaster cast of a dead body on the couch, and soon they start dropping like flies, probably as a result. There was this top-down bit where there was an arrow on the ground and if you were moving in the direction it was pointing when it disappeared you died. Marle died by intentionally moving in the same direction as the arrow.
People discover that the whole place is bugged. Hidden cameras and microphones are everywhere and even the random kids are secretly constructs designed to relay information. I drop into the dream, having watched it before now, and extoll the virtues of being Properly Paranoid.
People start exploring the warren of buildings and find one that's basically a suburban house. Spider-Man remarks that there are "too many" figurines in a figurine collection room, Aunt May tells him that it's called a figurine collection room and of course it will have figurines, and then they get jumped by a coat hanging off a dresser. (I went back to "watching" the dream at this point, and everyone's wacky hijinks are accompanied by narration about everybody learning the true meaning of love. No, I don't get it either.)
And then I woke up :p
So, let's hang an anchor from the sun... also my TumblrTwo dreams…
The first one was me in a place made of sky blue crystals, where Mom showed up and talked to me. I told her what happened on the Pokémon anime since she passed away on 4 July last year, and about the new Generation, and she immediately said she wanted a Sprigatito. Then she said she had to get me something, and left, and then some weird-looking creature appeared (it had the head of a squirrel, the body of a puma, the front legs of an alligator, the back legs of a crab, the antlers of a deer or something, and the tail of a snake). I called out to Mom, only for the Master of Masters to show up and say "Nah, not happening". Then I got eaten by the creature. ;-;
The second dream was just me downloading lots and lots of pics of outfits I liked… but when I looked at a mirror, I had a rather large head of a Pikachu.

All I can remember from the dreams I had last night was that the Joker was somehow attacking Gotham City with tornadoes and my folks and I were trying to get out of town. How and why we were in Gotham City, I dunno. Very little about the dream made any sort of sense. 😅

I was talking to my boyfriend in my room and noticed hair all over my bed and floor, so went up to go vacuum it. I don't remember if I did, but then I ended up talking to my mom about the Kentucky Derby while my sister chopped up garlic in the bedroom we were in. It was one of those dreams just realistic enough to not tip the alarm bells, though things were definitely very "off".

Recently had a dream where I bought some games from a stand outside somewhere, they had a bunch of really cheap games, mainly for Nintendo consoles, and I decided to get "New Yoshi's Island" (not to be confused with the actual Yoshi's New Island) and "Super Rodent Mario" (which I immediately assumed was some weird romhack), both for DS, I would stay longer to look through the other games but they had to leave and pack up so I got my shopping done quickly and left with those 2 games.
Then as I was walking home, I got out the games to look at them, and they had turned into some other made-up games/covers I don't remember, and they kept changing almost every time I looked away and looked at them again, this is how I realized it was a dream (couldn't go full in-control lucid unfortunately)

For a second I forgot what thread I was in and was confused.
I once dreamt a strange Star Trek: The Next Generation episode in which Troi was being put on trial in a literal kangaroo court (as in, the judge was a talking kangaroo).
