Having a lot of fucked up dreams today
#text post tag#dream posting#dont quite recall the first one. but the 2nd one was like. bloodborne esque. i was with a bunch of other people#most of whom were either teens or little kids. ans we were in some underground area. and we came across some open area#with a large open door on one side. through which we found some giant boss worm poking out of the floor#that was. spewing quite a lot of blood. and we were attacking it but it was continuously regaining hp so we had to really go ham#it was incredibly dangerous and kinda horrifying but i woke up in the middle of it#the next one involved me being trapped in some building with a giant angry person trying to fight me like a fromsoft boss#i tried fighting them for a bit before finding a spot where i could climb up and avoid attacks. after which she stopped attacking to talk#and ask me to come back down and fight. so i said yeah sure and then hit a lever to engage the lift out and left her behind and woke up#the last one was. long and fucked up and idk if i can describe it accurately#but i was on some world. and going about my business. and eventually woke up in some huge dark facility that i was trying to get out of#and found some other people doing the same. but every time i reached a certain point i woke back up where i started and we had to#do it all over again. each time doing the same thing with slight differences. and eventually things changed and i managed to find#some of the people responsible in one of the rooms. and it had turned out that these individual. employees? were tasked with repeatedly#growing and manipulating and releasing clones or copies of myself and the other people in the place#so each time i had woken up and gone thru the place i was just another copy of myself and not the original? but i had my memories#of the previous times and didnt feel different. but the copies were becoming more and more deformed and broken. so were the people doing it#eventually myself and some others managed to get outside. and there was some long sequence where my pov#was waaay out in space observing from the outside as me and the others discovered we were on some huge ship in space#with the planet damgerously near a black hole that was causing the fucked up time shit to happen#and i had to manually move the pov down to find the planet. it was surprisingly cool to see but stressful at the time cause#it was right on the edge of the point of no return. and it turned out the planet was surrounded by this field of smaller bodies#and one of them was what i had been living on instead. so we just kinda. climbed around looking for it#i remember we found stuff that looked familiar that would lead to where we wanted to go but woke up before we got there

could i ask something abt your stories? what are, like, the basic concepts? main themes?
Lord, sure you can! But you better prepare for WAAAY too much of my rambling, because I freaking love talking about my stories.
The main theme in most of my stories is the human mind I guess. This goes from dreams to the feeling of living a irreal life to dying without dying? It’s hard to explain. The other big theme are contrasts. Like, totally different people befriending or two days in the life of different people. But there are also roadtrips and dumb superheroes because I also love stories with these themes.
That alone would answer your question, the rest is just me rambling about my stories in detail, so it’s up to you if you want to read on.
Still there? Probably not. If yes, VERY cool.
The first story I’ve ever posted on the internet was really bad written (I was 12 back then) and about a girl waking up without many memories (she just knows her name, Alice, how old she is and that she doesn’t live here) in an unfamiliar room and finding herself in a strange city she never heard about. It starts with a man running away from someone and then it’s black.After this the real story begins. She befriends a passenger and the longer she lives there the more she likes it. Her dreams come true one by one and she thinks it couldn’t get any better. The passenger who got her friend also introduces her to his friends and they all get along really good. Okay,but after a time Alice notices more and more strange things. First of all she can’t get into all areas of the city anymore like in the beginning and she realizes that with every of her wishes coming true a bit of her freedom is taken from her (I still don’t know how I got that idea back then).She tries to find out more about the city and finds a notebook in a abandoned locker of her school. It was written by one of her friends, Castiel (oml I was so edgy). He writes about he got into the city searching for his best friend and finally finding him. But he’s somehow really afraid of Castiel (and he still is, Alice knows this guy too) and Castiel tries to find an exit and answers. Well,he only found half of this things. Apparently there is a person controlling all the people in the city. After he brought the newest person under his control he invites the next. And Alice knows she has to find out who this person is to stop him/her but she also knows she’s running out of time because her wishes continue to come true and she’s losing more and more of her freedom. Pretty much at the end she finds out that it was one of her friends all along but before she can confront him her time runs out. He comes to her, says he’s sorry because he really liked her and everything gets black as she loses her soul.There was actually more but I have to shorten it a bit, you see how long it already got like this. Also please forgive me changing tenses every sentence.
Second story called “Who taught me living”, I make it short: Again a nihilistic girl called Alice (I loved this name some years ago) moves to Canada and meets there Damien while he’s observing birds (robins and god, this names!). He’s full of life and stuff and he decides to show Alice how good life can be (many good ideas) and I guess Alice began to slowly fall into love with him, but he died in a car accident at the end while he wanted to pick her up to a new adventure. Also backstory and stuff. She flies home to her parents and comes back to Canada after a time. Story ends when she comes out of the airport and smiles for the first time in a long while because she sees a robin.
Next one is about a boy living two different lifes. Everytime he goes to sleep he wakes up in world/life A and after falling there asleep in world/life B. He switches every day between them and tries to figure out which one is real and which one is not. I still like that concept but I never found a good ending for this one.
This one is pretty similiar to the story above. A boy lives and when he dies he awakes i a completely new, bizarre world. After a time he dies also there and awakes again in a completely new world. After years and many, many deaths he has got numb and just kills himself if a world is too boring for him. Many adventures. Story ends as he’s running away from some bad guys, jumping into his death once again to save himself, but for this time it’s permanent. He’s dead for real. Here I don’t really love the story, but I like the ending.
One of my most recent stories: “Captain Cent”. It’s about a superhero with the really dumb power to attract copper like a magnet. It plays after a nuclear war Trump caused, a man with another superpowers, “Commander Dollar” now leads the destroyed country. Matt (Captain Cents alter ego) knew Commander Dollar’s alter ego when he was small and after CD takes over the prevalence CD wants to eliminate Matt to keep his secrets secret. Matt almost dies and backtracks to one of the many, many poor quarters where he discovers his powers. He worked as a captain in a paper factory before and with his new power he attracts the cupper in the small cent pieces and gives the money to the poor people who start calling him Captain Cent after a while. He gets pretty known under the people and really, really admired by them. Many details, he gets a robot companion and starts planning how to kill(?) Commander Dollar. Time passes, he sneaks into his residence, big epic battle: Captain Cent is really badly wounded, it looks like CD is winning. But then Matt spots the little pouch with cent pieces he always carrys with him and lost while fighting. He attracts it and it hits Commander Dollar really hurt and wounds him, but not bad enough. Commander Dollar kills Matt. He steps outside and brags with this and when the poor people hear they all get furious, wake up from their numbness and kill the commander in a angry mob. It’s a really built out world with many characters but again.I had to short it.
Last one (like, I got more but that’s the last one I tell y’all about for now) is about a roadtrip three friends make (and maybe my favourite story? Tho it’s really dumb, I’m working rn on it). It all starts with the death of Seth’s computer (i’m gonna change the names).They bury it on an animals graveyard btw, but let’s get over with this. So Seth always wanted to be a writer and just finished his first story, but it was on the computer that died (computers name is Ned btw, just like my computer that also died rip). And just on this computer and a usb stick because plot reasons. Jk, Seth hadn’t any save space left on his cloud. His two friends are Pete (who steals cars and sells them) and Isaac (who appears to be a drug dealer but he’s a undercover cop. nobody knows ofc). Because Seth hasn’t a own car he always drives together with Isaac.Okay, back from the funeral Isaac parks at Pete’s sales hall, as always (he got an own park place reserved). First problem: A new “employer” accidentally sells Isaac’s car. Second problem: Seth can’t find his usb stick anymore because it’s in Isaac’s car.Okay, so they all go with Pete’s car on a roadtrip and try to track Isaac’s car down. They meet many, many people with different stories. And at the beginning Isaac is really nervous for some reason, but he calms down the farer they are from their home town. Seth at the start just hurries and never takes the time to talk to people, he just wants to track down the car as fast as possible, but the longer they’re on the road, the more chill he gets. At some point they find Isaac’s car and drive home, Pete in his car and Seth and Isaac in the other one. Isaac got really calm after a call he received and he drops Seth by his apartment and drives to his own home. Seth suddenly remembers the usb stik and drives with his bycicle to Isaacs apartment. When he arrives the door is open, Seth gets really worried and enters the flat, finding Isaac lying shot down on the ground, his apartment completely devastated. He runs to him, calls an ambulance and just wants to know what happened and that’s the moment Isaac tells him he was an undercover cop all along (I’ve got a great line prepared for that!). The ambulance comes, taking isaac to the hospital, but he doesn’t make it.Seth doesn’t leave the house till the funeral (I always imagine that song playing at the funeral). He needs some time, but after the funeral he washes his laundry and in one of his jeans, in the pocket, he finds the usb stick.Completely wet, he tries if it still works. It doesn’t. And he just smiles because it was with him at the journey all along and he decides to write a new book. One about the roadtrip they made together.
I also thought about it being Pete’s car and not Isaac’s,so that Isaac just would join them to escape the drug ring, I’m still not sure if I shouldn’t change that back.
Argh,that’s so much? Oh my god, it’s so late in my time zone, I’m gonna sleep now, but if you read this all: khfijh, I CAN’T BELIEVE IT?ARE YA CRAZY? OMG I FEEL SO HONORED!!! YOU BLESSED SOUL
