Ganon's Dream Journal - Ganondorf - 06-19-2015
Neither of the following were nightmares. Just really weird dreams.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the first, I was in a tall, old-school apartment building made of brick. I entered one of the apartments (mine), and walked to the kitchen. A sense of foreboding hit me and I felt as though the place was haunted by something sinister. Warily, I searched for the cause… but I couldn’t find it. That is, until the ceiling practically blew apart and revealed what was hiding above us. What I saw was horrifying.
A man-sized beating heart, mutated and augmented with mechanical and computerized parts, was hiding above the ceiling tiles. Tentacles spurted from its grotesque shape, reaching for myself and my friend who was also in the room. Through a combination skill and blind luck, we managed to avoid them and escape back into the hallway. As we attempted to dash down the stairwell and leave this place, a group of gangbangers caught us on the way down and forced us back to the floor where we were, and IT was. I tried to warn them of the creature, but to no avail. They laughed and simply thought me crazy. Rather than go back into THAT apartment, me and my friend went to his (which was directly across the hall from that one). The inside was set up like a barracks, just rows of bunkbeds.
The gangbangers attempted to follow us in, and that was when I had a sudden feeling that, despite my fairly thin and lithe form, I could keep them out. Not with my brawn, but with telekinetic ability. My first attempt failed, but as they tried to push their way in, I found the key to unlocking my potential and pushed them back out into the hall. The door closed and it was peaceful for a moment. Until that feeling of foreboding returned, that is. Using my telekinesis, I tore away part of the ceiling to see the trailing tentacles of the Heart Beast I tried to warn the others in the room, and they leapt away from the bunks just as the creature burst through and began throwing them about. We tried to flee the building.
Unfortunately, others were there to stop me. Samus Aran and some of her cronies (random goons) tried to bar my path We were unable to break past them, despite a heroic leapt from an upper level to the lobby, and we were forced to find another way out. The was when another scene played in my dreamer’s mind. The Heart Beast had mutated again during my escape, its large body exploding outward and a small orb leaving the blasted carcass. The Orb was strange to look at. It appeared to be a metal and glass outer-shell (much like a helmet) with a strange human-like creature within (think a cuter MODOK). It rolled along vents and other small tube-like structures before locking into a mechanical body.
That was when I learned just what this thing was. It was Link, the Hero of Time. Something had turned his heart black and sent him down a path to becoming this monster. His new mechanical body was built for war and the man cackled as Samus and co arrived on scene to great their new ally. In the meantime, me and my friend found a side exit and left the building. As we were trying to escape, Link used his massive power to topple the building on top of us (the side exit was through a fairly decrepit and run down part of the apartment building). We ran from it, only to discover that there were other people who were in the path of the rushing wave of brick and mortar. A couple of my coworkers made a cameo as we pulled them from almost certain doom. We had finally escaped.
From an upper floor of the, now, extravagant hotel, Link and Samus reveled in their newfound power and the belief that they had, in fact, gotten rid of me. They shared that brief moment of comradery before Samus betrayed the mechanical monster she had allied with, blasting it with her arm cannon and sending the heap hurtling stories to the ground floor.
I reentered the building, despite my reservations, knowing that I stood the best chance of defeating these adversaries due to my telekinetic abilities. However, I was held up at customs, which for some reason made perfect fucking sense (dream-logic). I had just managed to get past customs when I woke up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My second dream was shorter… but far more disturbing to me as an individual. I don’t remember much prior to the end except that I had killed two people. The end was almost exactly like that scene from Bulletproof Monk where the Nazi used part of the scrolls power to get young again. The difference in my dream was that it was the Monk who had done so and was trying to kill me to attain MY immortality. In the end, I tried to cut his throat, but was unable to end his life that way. So… I lit him on fire and let him burn to death. I woke up as dream me broke down crying at the murders and horrific deaths I had given these people, feeling like a monstrous human being.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Expect more to come if I remember them and feel like writing them up.

A few nights ago I had another strange dream. I don't remember much of it now, but I remember that I was a clown wrestler who had died. At my funeral, an outdoor event, I was reliving my youth. And everything in the "past" was sepia-toned, like an old photograph.
Re: Ganon's Dream Journal - Ganondorf - 12-02-2015
I just woke up from a dream. In said dream, Bill Nye had a show where he'd answer fan letters about science stuff by showing up at their houses and doing experiments and what not. I had sent a letter to his show a while back and then moved, so when he showed up at my old place he thought he had the wrong address. Fortunately, I had moved nearby and was able to verify to him that it was me he was looking for. No experiment on that episode, but he DID answer my question about teleportation theory.
Here's the weird thing. In this dream it had been over a year or so since I had sent the letter. I had thought he wasn't coming. Why? Because the letter I had sent had been part of a dream I'd had over a year ago. I've had sequel dreams before, don't get me wrong. But they'd always been fairly close in time; no more than a week between dreams. This was the longest interim period between related dreams I've ever had.
Just thought I'd share.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Omni - 04-13-2016
I'm bringing this back.
[17:33:20] Greg: I had a dream that we were students at this school or college or something, and the teachers were all assholes
[17:33:40] Greg: like we both got kicked out for separate reasons, but then we got back in
[17:33:48] Greg: and we formulated a plan, to shut the school down
[17:34:07] Greg: by saying the teachers sexually abused us
[17:34:34] Greg: there was this one teacher who was a gargantuan bitch, and we said she like, she was a molester
[17:34:43] Greg: I think maybe we were underage or something?
[17:35:04] Greg: anyway the school got shut down and they handed us cheques
[17:35:08] Greg: for being abused
[17:36:09] Greg: then I went to this open air mall or indie shopping centre thing next door and set up a place selling produce. My pitch was like "I'll sell vegetables. They pretty much have fruit covered at that other place but I might sell some of that too. I'll sell milk as well maybe, and eggs and stuff."
[17:36:28] Greg: and the guy was like "you seem ambitious lad with a good head on your shoulders, you got it"
[17:36:54] Greg: oh and you were in a wheelchair so we had to take the elevator, but I think that helped our pity case
[17:37:09] Greg: I was like "can you cry? I'm gonna cry, guaranteed success"
[17:37:20] Greg: it was a great dream
[17:38:42 | Edited 17:38:43] Kasper Kivikataja: wtf less drugs man
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Crocodile - 09-07-2016
Yup. For some reason my grandfather in law had needed me to clean his GIANT contacts (like seriously rubber and glass abominations the size of a quarter) while I sat on the edge of his bed and he fell asleep. No biggy. Things had happened before this, but was normal weird shit I do not recall. Anyway, my kids ran into room and jumped on the bed, spilling contact solution everywhere. I skedaddle them out of them, finish up, and follow. And at that moment, I realize I have been cursed/haunted for unknown reasons. Because I am aware that whenever I am near a window, a little creepy-ass girl will appear opposite it from me and stare at me. Even through blinds. I'm understandably upset about this. I show my fam and they are also upset about this, especially when I pull the blind for them to see said creepy little girl. Then, because I'm an idiot, I open the doot directly beside the window that she is hiding behind. Maybe I thought it'd make her disappear if there was no "opposite" anymore. Nope. Just let her IN. Tried to close the door again when I saw her moving but that didn't work. She got in, I'm behind the door, and she's looking around the living room for me. Brilliant idea #2: let's scare HER! Last things I remember in the dream is that she can scream like a possessed fire alarm and the strong feelinh that whatever she looks like when not on the other side of a window is not something sane men are meant to see.

Had a dream that I was an older Steven trapped in the Coraline "Other Mother" world. To save myself and the other folks there, I came to the conclusion that the world past the door was like Rose's Room and that with a strong enough will, I could change it too.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Trixie - 05-07-2017
I've had two recurring dreams lately which have been leaving me in a surreal mood. Mostly because it's my subconscious creating an environment where I can exist and then ripping it away when I wake up.
#1: I don't remember much about dream one, but I do remember emotions. It was mostly just terror. The only part I remember is the very end. That's because my alarm for work broke me out of it and my mind adapted, creating one of most horrifying screams I have ever heard.
SETUP: My alarm for work is this part of the movie Minority Report. I cut it and made it into a soundbyte for my phone, because it's jolting enough to get me up. https://youtu.be/xtXdKETotbc?t=1m53s
So what happened was my dream adapted to the noise and created this horrific scream of whatever was going on at the time and, while still dreaming it, I remember actually going to shut it off, and clicking on the flashlight by bed to try and turn it off (No idea why). Well it clicked on and I saw this Xeno looking monster screaming. Well I then reached for my phone and by that time I had snapped out of it enough where my mind connected the dots. Alarm = RUN From Movie = Get up for Work.
It sounds dumb, but I sat in my chair for a good 20 minutes mentally stunned as I woke up.
#2: The second dream I've had lately is more emotional. It involved family around me as part of main plot, but it had a beautiful brunette who apparently lived in a wind up snow globe that was extremely into me? I remember seeing her for the first time and she was absolutely gorgeous. I can't discern the purpose of the dream, but I remember being in a van and I'm trying to get her out of the globe, because I just want to see her again. I want to talk to her. She likes me. I want to marry this woman. My memory is spotty as to the plot, but the emotions that arise are dark and...maybe nihilist? Like a Vampire the Masquerade setting or something. It was odd. I just know that this woman was not the only one of her kind and then, in the dream, she just disappeared, and I remember desperately trying to find out who she was or how we can bring her back.
You ask why I wish for death before bed? Because my imagination is powerful. It did this to me in High School when I had a crush on a popular girl named Maggie. All my dreams ever did was put in her situations where she was around and my friend for years. I even had a dream about my grandmothers funeral and she was there to support me. I've been able to decipher that my subconscious doesn't hate me, per say. It's that it's trying desperately to defrag and compress the amount of stress my mind is under. So it uses the extremes of every emotion to try and jolt me.
Who knows. At this point as I type this I sound like a god damn idiot in my head.

You must either be a masochist or have a seriously hard time getting out of bed.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Trixie - 05-07-2017
That would be the latter. Especially in this part of my life when I can sleep for 20 hours without even trying.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - The Vision - 05-07-2017
I once had a dream that we were fighting a giant toaster. A giant, hostile toaster that attacked us by trying to shock us with its plug. It was pushing us back, almost off of a cliff. The setting was a purple crag area of some sort. My superpower was basically Yugi's personality switch thing. My sidekick was Shrek. Just Shrek. I don't recall if we won but the dream ended with us sharing humongous floating toast so I imagine at the very least we made peace with the toaster.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Handsome Jack - 05-10-2017
Had a dream today where my Postal vehicle was capable of interstellar flight and I was transferred outside the galaxy to deliver mail on a planet without an oxygenated atmosphere. Had a cool space-suit and everything. Was in the process of figuring out how to alter my face-plate from glass to a forcefield so I could smoke without killing myself by removing my suit (it occurred to me after I awoke that without oxygen, fire wouldn't work anyway, but whatever). Got into an altercation with a female alien mail carrier who was being a prick to me, so I dumped her mail out on the ground.
That's about all I remember.

I just woke up from a dream where Justin Timberlake, Scooby Doo's Shaggy, myself, some kids, and miscellanous others were being hunted by The Great Pumpkin and Jason Voorhees in a large three story house/school gym. Shaggy tried to sell us out, but he redeemed himself by throwing a pomegranate full of worms at the Great Pumpkin and scaring it off.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Trixie - 07-19-2017
I keep having dreams that involve my ex. I don't miss her. It's more...reaffirming of how horrible she is as a person. Just awkward shit that portrays the reasons why I'm glad it's over.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Handsome Jack - 07-19-2017
It happens. I dream about my exes. I also have a ton of dreams about being back in the Army. You can't erase years of your life and your mind will bring it up from time to time.
RE: Ganon's Dream Journal - Gaston - 07-23-2017
I had a weird dream. So I was a kid, in the USSR at presumably the time of the cold war. I had gotten there with my sister (maybe; I don't have a sister irl) who had a time machine book. So for some reason I decided I wanted to help the USSR and make Stalin happy. So I was with Stalin for some reason, and he made me and my (probably) sister do some stuff I don't remember. Then like, he asked us the date, and my sister told him but I said I didn't know, and for some reason he was happy that I didn't know I guess? So he tells me to go upstairs (we were in a really weird modern-type house) and that there's a job up there. I get up there, Stalin is nowhere, but there's some officer or something? So the officer gives me a bottle, and tells me to drink it, says it's poison but it's expired so I'm okay. I don't wanna drink it so he grabs a syringe and injects himself, making him get all bulked up (think Roshi from Dragon Ball). I run away, and I don't remember what happens next, but it ends up with me as an actor on Star Trek and I have to play with a dolphin.
