       Re: Dreams
       By: Ashes Date: April 26, 2021, 7:31 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Early morning April 20th - one part where I was browsing an old
       forum I'd set up and then wound up leaving (in the dream)... I
       think possibly also from a previous dream... and wound up
       posting and getting into discussion again, with members old and
       new. Another part had Mum leading my brother and me up to a new
       house... either that we were all moving into, or that Dad had
       moved into without us. (It also appeared to be by the sea.) Dad
       was inside with some woman. The cats were there too and I saw to
       them. As we all settled down for dinner, a stranger showed up
       outside of the window: they and others then started smashing the
       windows.
       Early morning April 21st - it was my last-ever day of school,
       and after finishing, a friend and I went to see some kind of MHA
       thing (a play or a film), which I think I may have written. Deku
       and Ochaco were sat with us in the audience, and Deku wound up
       rushing down to do something. I think there was then something
       with me heading out of school grounds and around the area.
       Early morning April 22nd - inspired by me having listened to the
       Taskmaster podcast shortly before bed, I dreamt of Rick Edwards
       (that instalment's guest) hosting a quiz show with winners of
       Taskmaster (which apparently included Gillian Wright).
       Early morning April 24th - there was some bit involving
       Quickstrike which I can't really recall... One of the big bits
       began with me in the bedroom while Dad had Absolute Radio 70s
       playing on the TV in the living room. I was transforming Kingdom
       Rhinox, and once I had him in beast mode, I compared him to
       beast-mode T30 Rhinox on my shelves. The T30 one had a
       tapir-like trunk, while the Kingdom one was smaller and had
       orange eyes. I moved some things around and then I was comparing
       two Dinobot figures instead (I think meant to be Universe and
       Kingdom). Once I moved away from the shelves, I found a two-part
       OG Terrorsaur gun on my bed. I got hold of two Terrorsaur
       figures and compared them (one had iffy paint-apps and looked
       vaguely customised), before going to show Mum that I'd managed
       to find the missing gun after all these years. I'm pretty sure
       my mind was combining losing either Terrorsaur or Lazorbeak's
       gun, and the fact I've never managed to find half of Rattrap's
       which actually is a two-part weapon (I think dream-me even
       mentioned hoping to find Rattrap's).
       Another part had me being invited to something... I think a
       birthday party? For a kid? There was barely anybody there (the
       garden of a house). The boy was being teased by his sister, who
       had her feet up/visible, and I... think I was thinking of
       looking at them as him while watching as myself? Not sure if I
       was meant to be him at the time or what. I was then talking with
       him in his kitchen, before going off to spend time with the
       adults. I put on some sunglasses, and wound up closing my eyes.
       When somebody then spoke to me, I couldn't open them. A final
       part had some kind of pixel-art chibi animation of the Painters
       running (possibly following someone?). I noticed Alex's skin
       looked too dark, until I approached the monitor and realised it
       was actually fine. Some 80s film was on TV, and my brother asked
       if one of the actors in it was James Acaster's dad. I went to
       the computer and started trying to find him in my files,
       navigating through some lewd stuff in my search.
       Early morning April 25th - not even certain I had one, but if I
       did, I forgot (clearly-).
       Early morning April 26th - details hazy here... I recall
       Apocalypse being in a field, and Mum and me heading off down
       some country paths and forest areas to wind up in another field
       in the hopes of being out of his field of awareness.
       Unfortunately, we weren't. I'm sure there's more to do with the
       journey, or stuff continuing with the rambling/exploring after,
       that I can't really remember now... I dunno, was a cool dream,
       but yeah, just vague imagery and vibes now.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Early morning/Morning April 28th - this one's complex, winding,
       hazy and potentially some mix of two dreams since I woke up at
       one point and fell asleep again... One bit had me trying to
       search for something (2003) Teen Titans-related, I think a
       character, and getting auto-complete results (in the form of
       preview searches?) to do with NTT and the newer cartoon. There
       was something involving the Zenkaigers celebrating a victory,
       and then I was in some room (maybe an attic or loft conversion?)
       where Magine was doing a cute victory dance and possibly a black
       French maid outfit. I then demonstrated the moon walk for her. I
       headed out into a hallway, which was that from my aunt and
       uncle's old house, and an old classmate (and one-time crush)
       asked me... something about dancing, to which I was politely
       dismissive. Then there was something going on with toy jets in
       one of my cousins' bedrooms. The remaining part is where it all
       gets weird and hazy... there was some kind of cabin, vaguely
       like one of the little off-shoot buildings at my old school. I
       believe I was staying over as part of some weekend break, and
       was preparing one of the bedrooms when Dad and my sort-of-uncle
       (as earlier) entered, with I believe the idea being they would
       be using this room. There was some stuff I can't recall, but
       then I was in the other part of the cabin which was basically
       our living room. I was getting ready to sleep on the sofa
       ([s]and to indulging a little[/s]), but then various people were
       there, including my brother's ex and his current girlfriend,
       with the former introducing the latter to everybody. At this
       point, it was night and our old cat was sat by the kitchen sink.
       I was trying to take photos of her, but the camera was slow so
       the photos were either not the exact shot I was trying to take
       or blurry. When she then jumped down, I noticed some of her fur
       was thinned out, and she had an open space in her chest (i.e. I
       believe she was reanimated somehow).
       Early morning April 29th - began with me playing a Mario game on
       the original Game Boy. Each level began with some kind of little
       Matt Berry skit, akin to the links on Absolute Radio 90s; I
       figured there was meant to be a narrative obliquely told across
       them. Then my brother was getting ready to go to his
       girlfriend's, and took the Game Boy. Some family including a
       couple of cousins came over, and... I'm not sure exactly what
       followed, but I wound up with both mine and my brother's
       Christmas sacks, with one of them normal and one featuring...
       possibly Transformers characters?
       Early morning April 30th - only thing I remember was being in a
       park or a little playground area, and hearing or reading news
       about James Acaster having been cast as the Fourteenth Doctor
       and having had his first series, only for it to be some kind of
       fake-out and the Doctor returned to being Jodie Whittaker by the
       end of the series.
       Early morning May 1st - early stuff with Russell T Davies in one
       of our cupboards and some stuff with me on the computer emailing
       somebody. Then I... called a celebrity? This transitioned to me
       and others, including possibly the celebrity or their partner (a
       woman, whoever she was) and Mum, on some journey. We headed into
       a tall, dark tunnel or valley of conifer trees. Mum asked if
       this was where they'd filmed scenes from the second episode of
       Walking with Dinosaurs, and added that this area was very
       fitting for it. We then headed out into an open field, where I
       noted that this area (possibly theoretically meant to be where
       other scenes of that episode were filmed?) had grass and
       wouldn't be accurate. We continued on... possibly past a body of
       water... and in the direction of some town or city. We wound up
       in some new area, more rocky and uneven, and came across some
       paddling pool-like object with a load of fake boobs. I wound up
       donning a pair of them and Jay from The Inbetweeners went wild
       motorboating them (to the point saliva was flying).
       Early morning May 2nd - thanks to the next dream, I wound up
       forgetting almost all of this dream. All that remains is me
       walking through town, possibly looking (out) for something or
       somebody.
       Morning May 2nd - also hazy/messy... began in the bedroom,
       various family members around, me trying to hide feety stuff.
       Morning May 3rd - this one's somewhat hazy too... some Kagerou
       Project characters were outside (and I knew from a Wiki article
       that there had been two full-length seasons of a KagePro
       adaptation (I guess Mekakucity Actors) and a third eight-episode
       season. I... am not sure what I did to/with the characters, but
       then I think an online friend appeared or something and a load
       of evil Riders from various shows appeared and we had to
       lockdown indoors to stay safe. And I believe Durendal then got
       inside...

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Early morning May 4th - not sure...
       Early morning May 5th - began as some MCU film post-credits
       teaser - I believe meant to be at the end of an Avengers film,
       possibly Phase 2 (so an alternate Age of Ultron) - with a
       villain played by Adam Driver emerging in a city at night. This
       transitioned to Miles Morales taking a dive while wrapped in
       webbing, and being recovered by Peter Parker. The two were then
       in a hospital with the latter training the former or something.
       Another part was me walking home from school and then travelling
       via doors: each time I headed through a doorway, I wound up in a
       different location (kind of like a recent Zenkaiger episode). I
       believe one part had me in a house with a pool in the garden or
       something (I remember heading downstairs, at least). I also
       recall being in a garden and talking with a classmate.
       Morning May 5th - one part with me watching some Monogatari OP
       or ED on the computer, which I think was vaguely inspired by
       Gura and Kiara's new song. It was focused on Hitagi (with Chiwa
       Saitou singing), and I recall one shot on a beach with discarded
       sandals. The next thing was at a variation of my old school,
       with a villainous woman taking a kid captive. I was part of a
       group rushing into the building she was holed up in, along with
       the Green and Yellow Turbo Rangers. Subsequently she was sat
       opposite Yellow in a classroom, though Yellow was now the In
       Space design (with a yellow visor) and she was in a Silver suit.
       She went on about being anti-men or something. Then there was
       some platforming game, with the stage set in the air... not sure
       if I was playing or Mum was, but the character fell and landed
       on a lower area. I think The Chase may also have been on? Then I
       went into the bathroom and was preparing to bath.
       Early morning May 6th - Taskmaster and some other show were
       airing at the same time, so I ended up not watching either. May
       have also been a bit involving Hinagiku...?
       Early morning May 7th - this began in the car park outside my
       old school. An alternate version of a girl from the year below
       was there (I think I had a crush on her), and... the order of
       all this is a little off, but there were computers there and we
       were having to do something, with at least one teacher present.
       At one point I took off my hat as she didn't like it, only she
       said she found my hair creepy, so I put my hood up. Then
       somebody else came and started perming my hair. Once we
       finished, we were walking down the side path together, and I was
       trying to build up the courage to ask her out before we parted
       ways, but then the path opened out to some area with a road
       branching off and some other teens were there (and I think
       looking down on me in some fashion). My journey home alone then
       changed into... initially a road on the journey to where Nan and
       Grandad used to live, but once I sat down on a bench, it became
       an area inside their old house. Jay and Neil from The
       Inbetweeners sat next to me and Jay mocked my hair (I felt it
       and it was just a little bit poofed, not outright permed,
       thankfully). Then an old Who Wants To Be A Millionaire episode
       was on, and I believe it was meant to be 2000; I then went to
       look for something in Mum and Dad's bedroom cupboard.
       Morning May 7th - was set in some kind of cross between Nan and
       Grandpa's old bungalow and a caravan. I was in bed and initially
       browsing feety stuff online. Then I got up, and poked through a
       take on the little... kitchen window thing... to see my family
       in basically the bungalow living room, talking about somebody
       who used to come by and read stories to my brother when he was
       little. I remained unnoticed, and was going to go and shower. I
       then pondered what we would do on this, our last day of holiday,
       including having fish and chips and visiting the toy store
       (though I realised nowadays there's nothing for me to get at a
       toy store). I think there was also some bit, probably at the
       start, with me typing "don't forget to like and subscribble".
       Early morning May 8th - may have been more that I've forgotten,
       but I got myself a job and a friend of mine was my assistant. We
       were working in a hall, and he bought me some pizzas, to which I
       dismissed his efforts in Alan Partridge fashion as it was still
       morning and they would be cold by lunch. I believe other old
       classmates were there, though I'm not certain. I then got called
       over by one of my old Drama teachers (who I guess was our
       boss?)... his desk had two monitors, one of which was showing
       previews of various feety videos involving three women
       (including an online friend). He then called up a video of a
       former online friend of mine on the other monitor, pointing out
       a thumbnail for one of the feety videos in the background. He
       quizzed me on why that was there. (I believe this also wound up
       with me trying to find feety videos online-)
       Early morning May 9th - not suuuure...
       Early morning May 10th - I was staying over at some place
       (basically a variation of home, naturally). There are various
       bits here, and I'm not sure on the order. One was me in the(/my)
       bedroom, reading up on Dino Fury stuff - there was a leak about
       the Megazords, listing them, with one seemingly being borrowed
       from Lupinranger VS Patranger. I theorised that Dino Fury Red
       would get the LupinRed and Patren#1 suits as alternate forms to
       tie into it. Another had an online friend and I acting out some
       RPs, which thankfully didn't involve anything more than him
       kissing me while I pretend to be asleep (he was Wonder Woman, I
       was initially Cheetah though we also had a similar RP planned
       with me as Suruga). At one point, I was in the living room,
       where a teen girl or young woman was... doing something... and I
       realised I hadn't planned for the right Musics session that
       night (thinking it was a Week 4 when it was a Week 1). Then,
       back in the bedroom, there was some kind of weird version of
       Would I Lie To You. While one round was going on, I was eating a
       steak or some other kind of meat which was rather bloody
       (probably owing to my ever-so-slightly bloody steak the previous
       evening). I then wound up singing a song for some reason (I
       think attempting to do so better than somebody else, possibly
       the girl from before), only to have it replayed and to hear I
       was slightly flat or out-of-tune.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Early morning May 11th - only really recall travelling back in
       time, first to some point in the Palaeozoic, then to an Earth
       rapidly freezing over which was supposedly the Hadean. I may've
       been in a TARDIS, as I recall opening a door to watch as the ice
       sheet came across from the left. No idea on anything else.
       Early morning May 12th - dunno, unfortunately.
       Early morning/Morning May 13th - may or may not have woken up at
       some point... one bit involved a CSToys livestream, where I was
       meant to join the stream for an interview only Hilary Clinton
       had gotten back in touch with Mr S, so she got to call in
       instead. Another was either Absolutely Fabulous or a sitcom
       using its set (ala Miranda), only the set had been reworked in
       some way. This bit ended with Eddie and Patsy going (or
       tumbling) up the stairs. Main bit was in the living room, and
       began with a chick (maaaybe a duckling?) wandering around. I
       went to show it a little teddy, and it wound up almost pooping
       on it (and instead went on the floor). I got some kitchen roll
       to clean that up, and then I was browsing channels, with a
       different set-up than the actual Sky digi-guide which included
       preview images. It was meant to be late at night, but it was
       daylight. My brother's girlfriend was there, and I wound up
       explaining some gag/reference I'd made regarding some show I
       spotted. Then my brother's ex was there too (as well as the rest
       of the family) and we were all barefoot (I believe the current
       girlfriend and I already were in the previous bit).
       Early morning May 14th - details kind of hazy now... going back
       and forth between places, a guy who was either one of two guys
       from school or a cross between them, and somebody being found
       with illegal images and me worrying that stuff on my phone would
       be mistaken for the same or something (including trying to
       explain as much to a (fictional) teacher, in the living room).
       Near the end, I was walking back home around the local lake,
       with numerous fellow students heading the same way, and when I
       got to the path outside my place, on old neighbour was in the
       form of a cat and interacting with one of my cats. I think more
       I forgot...
       Morning May 14th - I'd been put forward to take part in some
       expedition or something by Mum, and went to get my bike from the
       shed... before deciding I didn't want to be involved. As I
       headed back down the garden, I imagined the reaction of Rimmer
       from Red Dwarf in the same situation. Then there were loads of
       differently-proportioned Rubik's cubes lying around, and I
       picked up one that was just two cubules thick.
       Early morning May 15th - escaped meeeee...
       Early morning May 16th - again, a bit hazy... stuff with me
       heading some distance/to a fictitious town for school, and I
       think I was in a lower year of Secondary School. On the way back
       home (on-foot, I think), I wound up meeting some other guy and
       befriending him... there may have also been some bullies or
       something? Also, part with my home being different, vaguely like
       a place where we used to dogsit when I was little, and an old
       neighbour/ friend of my brother's stopped by. Probably more I
       forgot.
       Early morning/Morning May 17th - definitely did wake up during
       this, but the dream didn't miss a beat, so I'm doing it as one.
       It began with something that may or may not have been a
       Bumblebee sequel... a young woman going around with some
       non-human entity, at least. Then... not sure on the order of
       this, I want to say it was then in my room and I offered her
       either Pokemon Red or Blue to borrow (she took Blue, and I said
       I was glad as I was planning on playing Red soon myself), and
       then she wound up falling unconscious or something and some
       heroes were trying to revive her, with Raven messing up and
       creating a bubble or orb within the woman's heart. Not certain
       on that, maybe I was offering the games to Raven in an attempt
       to console her (I believe I did try to console her or reason why
       it wasn't so bad). The next bit involved Mike Wozniak showing up
       for an interview in my parent's room, and the guy holding the
       interview was... very peculiar (and yes, that's in comparison to
       Mike Wozniak). Mike wound up getting the job, and then left out
       of the front door. I was expecting to send the interviewer out
       too, but then it turned out he had something prepared for me
       too... and brought in a load of teenaged girls as potential
       suitors.
       I woke up here, then drifted out again. In the dream, I
       immediately told any of the girls below the age of 16 to leave,
       which only left one or two. The interviewer continued to be
       weird (it's annoying that I can't remember a single thing he
       did), and I ended up chucking him out. After this, I was in the
       bathroom, with somebody doing stuff in the bath (they were
       outside of it, but the stuff they were doing was in the bath); I
       was watching on, and getting involved in some fashion, I think
       acting like a cat at one point and possibly specifically Tom of
       Tom and Jerry. I was also trying to map out how I'd write up the
       events of the day as a script, including mapping out what scenes
       would need to be cut. I was then interrupted... it's possible
       this is when the interviewer brought up the girls, and I wound
       up in the bathroom again later, but I want to say this was Mum
       interrupting to pass on my brother's complaints about me getting
       him the "Triassic" fish and chips, apparently differentiated by
       a couple of things including the accompanying sauce (mayo with
       the Triassic one?). I was then in the bedroom, with another
       order of fish and chips open on my brother's gaming chair (the
       chips were all big, I remember), and I ate a little of the fish
       or at least it's batter as I did stuff in there. Then I was in
       the study at night, writing up a story that was a prequel to
       something, I think set in the 60s or 70s. I realised I hadn't
       properly set up a change in scene, so went back to edit that (I
       was also having two characters introduce themselves the same way
       in the two scenes). There was a knock at the door and a sound of
       LEGO pieces moving in a box: Mum showed up while I opened the
       door, bringing in five parcels of Bricklink orders. Last bit I
       remember was being in the bedroom with Mum and my brother, with
       me talking about the following day being busy and Mum
       recommending I bath the night before (so I guess then...?): I
       countered that washing my hair late and then sleeping on it made
       it not as good the following day, which got her annoyed.

       Early morning May 19th - sadly hazy, but it involved myself, Mr
       S and somebody else going on some kind of expedition... I recall
       a forest...
       Early morning May 20th - sure there was some neat stuff, but all
       I remember is something involving one of my aunts, possibly?
       Morning May 20th - one bit had a friend trying to tell me RWBY
       stuff despite my lack of interest, frustrating me to the point
       of attempting to slam my head into the desk but somehow not
       managing too. I think there was also something with me getting
       up...?
       Early morning May 21st - some part set by water (at a sort of
       dock or pier?), with Ren from Kamen Rider Saber and some golden
       Rider lady (I think meant to be Sabela?), who was holding a
       toy-sized CrocoDaiOh. Was also possibly something with my old
       chat site and feety pics.
       Early morning May 22nd - began with my brother watching an
       episode of some detective show, which I informed him was a
       Doctor Who crossover (which was then confirmed with the DW
       titles playing after the show's own ones). The episode then
       basically became a cross between 'The End of the World' and
       'World Enough and Time' (with shades of 'The Long Game'), with
       the Twelfth Doctor, Bill and a CG character voiced by Matt Lucas
       entering some space station. Various bits entailed which I don't
       really recall. There was also a compilation of regeneration
       moments, including Thirteen's, which was my first time seeing
       it: she casually got shot and was chattering away inanely in the
       build up to the regeneration. I found it amusing, but my brother
       didn't. Then... though this may have been part of the
       following... I was by a car outside Drama Studio 2 at my old
       school, with one of my cats, and the car radio was playing music
       with me jotting down some of the songs that were playing.
       Morning May 22nd - something with celebrities doing covers of a
       song which I think is real but which I can't place... I recall
       Jamali Maddix making some cool one, and I think I pointed out
       his musical proficiency with some kind of portmanteau with his
       name. Also, me waking up (in the bunkbed), and finding BIONICLE
       stuff being displayed on the storage boxes having been knocked
       (Gali specifically, I think). While I sorted that out, I was
       singing My Immortal in preparation for some kind of cover of
       that... I also have the faintest memory of working on that at
       Tesco, not sure where that bit would fit...
       Early morning May 23rd - forgotten...
       Early morning May 24th - started with me as vaguely-yandere
       Homura trying to work my way into Gura's streams, which she
       eventually allowed though potentially with ulterior motive. Then
       I was myself, one of my cats had a bit of a limp, and various
       family members were visiting so we could all write each other
       Christmas cards. I wound up receiving a letter, noting how
       Homura's behaviour (apparently under my pen?) was concerningly
       out-of-character and recommending I remedied it. I initially
       thought it was from Gordon Ramsay, and somehow managed to find
       the contents of the letter on a forum, which I read back a few
       pages on. Then the letter turned out to be from Steven Moffat,
       speaking on both his and Russell T Davies' behalf. I believe at
       the end, I was seeking to act on the recommendation in some
       form.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Early morning May 27th - couple of parts, small chance the
       second was after waking up... firstly, me trying to go out to
       the cinema with a couple of friends (one I've not heard from
       since school, who was driving us). As the two were waiting
       outside in the car, I kept having to run back inside as I'd
       forgotten one thing or another. Eventually, I somehow left both
       my t-shirt and hoodie inside, and after dashing back in to grab
       them, I found them beginning to drive off without me. I get left
       behind as they drove out of the street, me calling after them.
       The other part was centered around Taskmaster airing at 4pm on
       BBC One (or Two). I put it on in my room, and it opened on the
       start of a pre-recorded task before returning to the studio. One
       of the contestants was some kind of alternate Alice Levine (with
       bigger and lighter-coloured hair). Some task then began with
       them down a street. All the while I had both Thrilling 30 and
       Kingdom versions of Rhinox on my bed. I wound up going into the
       study, where Dad had been tidying up and left the front portion
       of the original Rattrap's two-part blaster on the desk. I was
       extremely excited, as in reality that's been lost for years. I
       wound up showing... I think Mum... and combining the two parts.
       The worst thing is I recognised the previous part as having been
       a dream, and so was convinced this was real...
       Early morning May 28th - I'm sure I've forgotten stuff, only bit
       I recall is Mum trying to browse her phone but not pressing the
       screen properly or something.
       Early morning May 29th - began with some kind of school trip or
       something, myself and classmates in some location. I faintly
       recall some kind of jumble-sale-type thing going on... I then
       went off, trying to rock-climb along a high cliff-face and
       immediately regretting it. Some other person came past and was
       going to help me. Then there was some kind of Inside No. 9
       episode I was involved with, set in my Nan and Grandpa's old
       place. Can't really recall anything about it...
       Early morning May 30th - some sports thing going on at school,
       or rather the leisure centre next to the school that we used to
       use. I think it was mostly the hall but maybe turned into the
       pool at one point? I also recall a sporty female classmate of
       mine being there...
       Morning May 30th - was chiefly some kind of Hayate no Gotoku
       thing, some skit I was going over involving (a version of) the
       bathroom with... I want to say Hayate, Hinagiku and at least one
       other character going in and there was something about
       somebody's underwear (and they were asleep)... I believe there
       was also an anime depiction which was shorter and in some big
       stately home? Then I woke up in the dream and there was some
       incident with me having missed work stuff... I was seemingly
       doing similar work to my brother, with a monitor under my bed.
       Early morning May 31st - I think this began in a library or book
       store, but then turned into Asda. I was there with Mum, going
       around, and eventually we were at the checkout (I... think I
       may've grabbed a chocolate bar or something?). As we left, Ant
       and Dec were there filming some kind of annual Christmas advert
       in the car park. I wound up chatting with Dec, who remained
       in-character, and then another Dec was still filming with Ant (I
       think they were dressed as snowmen, but in chibi form?). I can't
       even quite recall how this led to the next bit, but it did in
       some fashion, becoming an X-Men thing with me as Angel - only
       kind of like Hawks from MHA - involved in some story in a big
       apartment building.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Early morning June 1st - may have been stuff at the start that I
       wound up forgetting, but what I remember was me playing a port
       of a pre-SMB1 Mario game on the Game Boy Advance SP (probably
       influenced by SML1, since it was similarly black-and-white) on
       my bed. I was in an Ancient Egypt-themed level, flying around -
       I particularly remember a stretch with pipes above and below, at
       different heights, and avoiding and bouncing along enemies. I
       wound up going around and entering a yellow pipe, which took me
       to a 3D, colour bonus game.
       Early morning June 2nd - not sure if I even had one-
       Early morning June 3rd - two separate (or at least distinct)
       Taskmaster bits... one was me and Charlotte Ritchie in my
       garden, trying to fit a pair of shoes into a box or something...
       The other was some kind of acting task, with possibly a
       classmate of mine (can't place him) doing some kind of Marvel
       thing... there was an initial bit with I believe Iron Man, then
       numerous quick shots of a Magneto in papier mache costume (with
       the mouth area of the helmet closed rather than opened) storming
       through the jungle. There was a brief encounter between the two
       characters, with at least a couple others around, and then Iron
       Man had to figure out how to defeat Magneto. He concluded that
       he should use his daily discharge of energy to just bomb the
       whole area, killing both Magneto and civilians. This was then in
       my Nan and Grandpa's old place, with my old Drama teacher not
       very impressed by the story (I imagine she was in the Taskmaster
       role). I found it funny, at least, and basically explained that
       it was it being out-of-character and random that made it
       amusing.
       Early morning June 4th - frustratingly I really can't remember
       this one very well, but we were at some kind of holiday home
       place in the style of our old caravan holidays... man, I barely
       even remember the broad details. I think we were preparing to
       leave the following morning but then my brother and I were going
       to stay for a bit longer...?
       Early morning June 5th - again, not sure...
       Early morning/Morning June 6th - not sure which it was... but it
       began with myself and an online friend sat on a bench outside
       the front of my house, him using his phone and me using a
       tablet, both of us communicating via Discord. I was trying to
       share an image with him. The next bit I remember - there may
       have been a transition here - was us in my room, with the
       bunkbed up. We were on the top bunk, and he kept trying to rub
       his feet in my lap and initiate some play, only Mum insisted on
       popping in to tell me/us things. I also remember - this may have
       been the transition, not certain - me trying to bring stuff up
       on the computer, only it was our old grey one running Windows 98
       or something old. As I navigated, it had content up to a certain
       (comparatively-recent) date, and I wound up some feety photos
       I'd forgotten about, having been buried in the newer content.
       Then we were in the living room, and my Dad had a film from the
       early 00s on that included numerous cartoon and pop-culture
       characters of the time. We settled down to watch, and I
       immediately pointed out some Cartoon Network classics in the
       opening scene (set in the evening with some big hustle and
       bustle going on). There was a character who I initially thought
       was being played by John Boyega, only to notice he had a very
       upturned nose - the character then turned out to have a keen
       sense of smell. The final part diverted off some way, with me
       going from the bedroom to some big night-time balcony area where
       the bathroom would be. My friend was Thor, and I was Iron Man in
       a makeshift version of a suit of armour. We were now the
       characters rather than ourselves. Then there was some kind of
       trailer montage highlighting the Iron Man trilogy, with the
       narrator noting that "Johnathan Hick Man" wrote Iron Man 2. The
       imagery showed some kind of cool base or forge in lava, vaguely
       like Mustafar. I knew that the last film included Tony's death.
       Early morning June 7th - school stuff, possibly meant to be the
       end of my time at school or at least the end of a year. I recall
       heading down the stairs in the Science block, possibly even
       being chased or something... main part I recall is going into
       the Drama Studio, which was very busy and where my teacher had a
       board up with photos of loads of her classes and students. There
       was also a photo of her with her predecessor (who taught me in
       Years 7 and 8), and it turned out that they were friends.

       Early morning June 8th - one part with a new Lightning Storm
       video showing off a set of new Lightning Collection figures:
       MMPR Red, Pink and either Yellow or Black, as Rocky, Kat and
       Aisha/Adam respectively. Each was a unique design, something
       like the Pink/New variants, and Toku Topics pointed out silver
       portions on Red and Pink which were apparently Zeo design
       elements. Then I was outside of the house at night, as some
       singer (possibly meant to be Freddie Mercury?) before his career
       takes off or something... or a singer appeared and performed, I
       can't recall... all I really remember is a woman being with me,
       and she had Kiara's face (but as an actual flesh-and-blood
       non-anime face) and I/my character was smitten. The last bit was
       longer and weirder, including me going to get in the shower
       which was placed in the corner of the bathroom by the toilet and
       semi-boarded up; doing something (maybe even continuing to try
       and get in the shower) out the front of Nan and Grandpa's old
       place when some guy appeared and needed something; and then,
       again possibly with me trying to find the thing the guy needed,
       rooting around in a drawer and finding a box of Beast Wars cards
       or the like.
       Early morning June 9th - something I didn't jot down in time and
       forgot...
       Early morning June 10th - this was long and winding and weird,
       so I only really remembers glimpses... started at Nan and
       Grandpa's, only bit I recall is possibly trying to find or catch
       mice in the kitchen, and they belonged to my dad's friend...
       Then we were driving back home, but went through this route that
       went into some tree-house-college or something, and I was
       walking through and bumped into an old classmate. Was also stuff
       at home, my brother and I were out on the green in our street
       and an childhood friend and his sister walked by as young
       children (I think this may've been the second time they appeared
       in the dream, not sure). I wound up talking with the friend, who
       at that point was a normal age. We walked together and talked
       about what we were up to, with me explaining PTW.
       Early morning June 11th - was at some kind of water park. Main
       bits I remember was going down a water slide, and some bit where
       a large seal or some kind of toothed whale was in a pool and
       interacting with me (including I think squirting water at me).
       Morning June 11th - may've still been part of the previous
       dream, not sure. I was preparing to go to school, and there was
       stuff about new Kamen Rider leaks (stuff for Saber Q4, sadly
       nothing Revice). This somehow escalated to myself and other
       (non-specific) classmates going off and staging some kind of
       Rider vs. Rider conflict; I recall being Baron w/ Banana Arms,
       and fighting another Baron. (We had the high ground, in some
       kind of wooden hut.)
       Early morning June 12th - hazy, but I recall having some big
       argument with Dad in Nan and Grandpa's kitchen (complete with
       him throwing something), and a bit with me missing pre-orders
       (or just orders) on a couple of Transformers items, including BW
       Inferno and Cybertron Crumplezone - not sure if OG or
       Generations versions - and had to jump quickly on the one
       remaining figure I wanted.
       Early morning June 13th - began in the bedroom, with the
       curtains drawn. I was playing... I think a Mario game of some
       description. Phil Mitchell was there and approved of me in some
       fashion (as though I was joining the Mitchells in some
       fashion... maybe I was a Callum stand-in, I dunno). We wound up
       outside - at this point, it was myself and two others, one
       possibly Stuart from EastEnders - and we had to hide in the
       garage, as someone was coming (who may have looked like Stuart
       if my companion wasn't him, and was possibly called Neil or
       something). At one point I glimpsed an old friend as one of
       numerous people outside as the garage door was closing like
       blinds, in police uniform or at least a hi-vis jacket. I'm not
       sure quite how things then panned out, but I remained in hiding
       behind something at the back of the garage as the enemies
       entered... and then I wound up being called out as Adora/She-Ra
       and being prompted to come and explain my adventures. I came and
       sat next to (or possibly on the lap of) somebody - I recall
       asking something about Catra (maybe about not acting as her
       instead, or if she was around), but pronouncing it differently -
       and, well, basically acted as her and bluffed my way through the
       explanation.
       Early morning/Morning June 14th - not really sure whether this
       is a mix or just after having drifted back to sleep, and I may
       have forgotten early some stuff... First bit I recall was an
       Inside No. 9 story, where I was sat with a Steve Pemberton
       character and somebody else (but as a viewer). Reece
       Shearsmith's character entered, and as the discussion went on...
       I think a reference or something was made, or the first two
       characters were reviewing a script, and I spoke up about it.
       Reece's character acknowledged me, and I felt bad for having
       gotten directly involved but was gently and in-character assured
       I was alright. An oven wound up beeping, and I headed off to go
       and turn it off; in the little kitchen area, I found a thing or
       two on the stove and no way of turning the alarm off. I called
       out about it, then poked my head around the door and witnessed
       Reece's character clubbing Steve's around the head with a
       hammer. I yelped out, and moved back out of view, audibly
       commenting that I'd almost burned myself to excuse the yelp. I
       can't recall the exact mechanics next, but both Reece's
       character and the other, a blonde lady, entered the kitchen,
       Reece with a knife or the hammer; there was a scuffle, he wound
       up without the knife, and then the lady wound up escorting him
       out and it turned out he was old and senile and fantasising the
       whole scenario. He was settled down to eat in a dining room of a
       care home. There was something on the TV about Inside No. 9
       being on at 9:30pm, which I noted (it's been on then this
       series, but was scheduled for 10:00pm tonight). I went out into
       the hallway.
       Next bit - I mean, this may have been before the above, but I
       think this is the right order - had me wading in some lake or
       something, before we had to leave (my family at the shore or
       something). Then I was trying to set my watch, but at one point
       that turned into me pressing on the soft part of my sole just
       above my heel and eventually giving up because I knew it looked
       weird. This then transitioned into me walking around, and
       winding up in some place where... at least one woman was asleep
       with her feet exposed, I think possibly with only her lower legs
       visible while the rest of her was through a hole in the wall or
       something. I wanted to look, but felt a desperate urge to pee,
       so passed up on it. Then I was very fortunate I didn't pee in my
       sleep with how much I proceeded to go in the dream (in a
       conveniently-placed toilet not far away). And the dream promptly
       transitioned into... another She-Ra thing, where I was initially
       Catra meeting Adora. There was some stuff there, plus with... a
       purple-haired woman who wasn't Entrapta or whoever the
       purple-haired one is. Last bit I recall was both her and the
       other two winding up finding out separate bad things were about
       to happen. Last bit I recall was being in front of my parent's
       big chest of drawers, now as Adora rather than Catra, and there
       being something in one of the drawers. Catra... sniffed at it or
       listened and made some kind of comment. The implication I got
       from the whole thing is this was the first episode, with them
       only meeting here and Catra would turn out to be an antagonist
       at the end.

       Early morning June 15th - only bit I recall is watching
       Taskmaster clips on YouTube, which included Rik Mayall, only I
       couldn't remember his name for the life of me and was trying to
       search other videos of him to remind myself.
       Early morning June 16th - began with myself and somebody else -
       I think a fusion of Charlie from Bumblebee and my brother's
       girlfriend - were driving into the town my maternal grandparents
       lived in. I was in the passenger seat, watching a trailer for
       the next Transformers film: Bumblebee and Ironhide, and possibly
       another character, were out in the desert, with Ironhide
       explaining the AllSpark or some other important artefact, and I
       also remember a glimpse of a new vehicle mode for Bumblebee, a
       six-wheeled yellow sports car. We eventually reached our
       destination, which I believe was my companion's family home, and
       while we waited for my brother to arrive, there was a lot of
       cuddling.
       Morning June 16th - fell asleep for just a moment, and dreamt of
       arriving at the cinema in the evening and finding the car park
       completely empty. As myself and a couple of other people headed
       to the cinema itself, I realised it was because all of the films
       had started and I was arriving late. I got to the door but
       didn't have a ticket or money. Then my friend arrived, and when
       I told him, fortunately he had both of our tickets.
       Early morning June 17th - all set in school, initially some
       made-up area with lots of computers where I was listening to
       Absolute Radio 90s, possibly without headphones. I wound up
       using Wayback to dig out a playlist from a few years earlier,
       and briefly saw a song I hadn't seen/heard before, though it
       vanished before I got to jot the name down with reference and
       was trying to keep it in my head. Later, I was at the top of the
       Science block, looking after a few kids... I think maybe it was
       some kind of apocalyptic scenario or something, not sure. One of
       the kids, a boy, had to go outside for something, so I
       reluctantly let him.
       Early morning June 18th - the third series of His Dark Materials
       was airing. Don't recall much, and nothing very accurate to The
       Amber Spyglass; the new rendition of the theme tune, stuff with
       Asriel, some sequence with Lyra.
       Morning June 19th - forgotten everything except some guy being
       around, because when I woke up as my brother walked in, I said
       "yo" to him because my brain thought it was this guy for a brief
       moment. (Then I realised it was my brother and I'd already
       greeted him when he came in before, so I mumbled some kind of
       remission.) I'm sure there was more, but it's all gone.
       Early morning June 20th - not sure if I had one...
       Early morning June 21st - was in the bathroom (which I think was
       open out to the garden in some way, maybe an open door?),
       brushing my teeth and spitting out into the toilet, while a
       Friends episode played. Phoebe was wanting to give her babies up
       for adoption (I guess a play on the surrogacy plot), and Ross
       then entered having found some people who might want to adopt
       them. Then I was in the bedroom, with Absolute Radio 90s (and
       briefly 00s) playing, an old classmate and the school librarian
       there, and some old game with CGI that apparently inspired or
       was inspired by Beast Wars' was... being played, or just
       on-display.

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       My ability to remember more than a shred of my dreams this past
       week has been close to nil...
       Early morning June 22nd - I was in some house, and a dog that
       lived there (somewhat Staffie-like) really liked me: they kept
       sitting or standing in front of me, looking up at me. Other
       things I forgot.
       Early morning June 23rd - this was a really long and cool dream,
       and most of it disappeared... I remember the first part
       involving Grandpa alive and watching TV in our living room, and
       a bit where a friend of a friend online had been messaging me
       repeatedly on Discord, reaching out to me for help regarding our
       mutual friend... that's all.
       Morning June 23rd - bonus bit, also lost.
       Early morning June 24th - forgotten...
       Early morning June 25th - began with a Power Rangers film, a
       sequel to a previous one, with the opening sequence focusing on
       Rocky, seemingly having replaced Jason from the first film. It
       was high school-set montage, set to a song (possibly Gangsta's
       Paradise), with the film set in 1996. One part of the montage
       had Rocky chatting with Zack. Then there was some kind of battle
       scene, with the two most recent Green Rangers from Sentai (a
       RyusoulGreen-liked guy I recognised 1) as "Souji" and 2) having
       had a post-show haircut, and another guy) showing up. During
       this point, I was watching this in the living room with my
       parents, and leant in from the armchair in surprise at the
       Sentai alumni appearing. After that, I was watching in the
       bedroom, lying on my bed: there was a scene with Kim and Rita
       having a heart-to-heart. After that... I mean, there may have
       been something between these, but... I was Alex, with the other
       four initial Painters, and we were all trying to fit in the
       (over-sized) bottom bunk of the old bunk bed. Then it was
       me(/Alex), Dakota, Bao and Kitty watching something in the
       living room, with me and Dakota both sat in the armchair, her
       facing the TV and me the opposite way. Kitty was making some
       comment about preferring to sleep on the sofa than sharing a
       bed. Dakota and I were wrapped up in some kind of cover made of
       material like a sleeping bag, and I wound up accidentally
       touching her foot through the material: since she didn't react,
       I decided to keep my hand there for the moment.
       Early morning June 26th - I think this began with some kind of
       school trip in/beginning at the field outside my old school.
       Only bit I really remember is being down some forest path,
       identifying Dromaeosaurs and Troodontids, and then snipping some
       plant stems which turned out to be Troodon legs. The creature
       had black feathers like a model Caihong I've seen. Mum appeared
       and expressed her surprise that dinosaurs were still alive, as
       we headed back up the path and out of the forest. There was
       something else I still remembered when I first woke up but
       quickly disappeared...
       Morning June 26th - I'd ordered something for the shower as a
       surprise for my parents, but... I don't know if what arrived was
       the wrong part, or the thing that arrived was a separate shower
       part to my order... also, part with me trying to navigate back
       to the right folder (so, basically my Wantage folder), but
       winding up clicking the right folder, my anime-to-watch folder,
       where one of the thumbnails had a blue-haired girl sort-of
       dabbing. As I went to the living room, a football match on TV
       had been disrupted by somebody on the pitch had been injured. It
       briefly appeared to be Dad, before a better shot confirmed that
       it wasn't. I then went into the kitchen, noticed that it was
       4:33am (it was daylight, but that's not too far off for 4:33am
       currently; Mum being up and Dad being at a football match, less
       so), and realised that I'd completely forgotten to do Musics.
       Angered, I hit the back of one of the armchairs as I returned to
       the living room.
       Early morning June 27th - forgotten...
       Morning June 27th - I was lying in the bunkbed, with the bedroom
       and living room doors open. My brother's ex was at the kitchen
       door, and we exchanged words before my brother appeared. The two
       of them headed off, with some kind of talk as though they were
       going to get their relationship officially annulled. I then
       heard more talking, thinking that my brother's current
       girlfriend had arrived: a figure walked into the living room,
       and I greeted them before realising it was actually a tall
       blonde woman, seemingly a friend of the ex. She greeted me
       in-kind.
       Early morning June 28th - again, I don't recall much. A bit of
       talking with Toku Topics on Twitter DM, as well as trying to
       look up images of some kind and finding the supposed single
       cover for Bring Me To Life, with an early-00s
       (pseudo-)anime-style Amy Lee.
