Dream Foo - Superhero Sort of
Jul. 13th, 2005 07:37 amKind of weird. I was sort of both Spider-Man and working with Spider-Man. I was like someone who had the powers and costume but wasn't the original. Also I had some precognitive abilities.
One of those was that we were driving somewhere, and somehow I knew one of my stepneices would be kidnapped in the near future. I kept referring to it in the dream as my spider-sense. Anyway, first I had to convince the real Spider-Man this was real, and then we had to try and race to find her before it happened. We headed for the Xavier Institute for gifted youngsters (I don't know, but it made perfect sense at the time), and noticed there was a mysterious van following us. We only noticed as we were pulling in. We decided it would be a better idea to pretend we were only pulling up to Xavier's in order to turn around and go the other direction, as though we were lost, and see if they continued to follow us. He did. Something happened I can't remember, and the guy was out of the car confronting real-Spidey, who was in his Peter Parker identity, and I used that opportunity to web up the guy following us, both to contain him because he was bad, and because it helps protect Parker's identity (since he was recognized as Parker and then attacked by someone else who was Spider-Man at the same time).
There was another jump where we were in a house trying to solve the kidnapping and someone else, someone I have a strong sense I know (or at least recognize) but can't place who it is, came in and asked what we were doing, and I mentioned the kidnapping, and she hadnt heard about it, so I had to ask Spidey if it had actually happened yet or we were still going off the precognitive vision. We were amused that we weren't sure, but the other person thought we were crazy. That's about when I woke up.
Had another dream where for some reason I was given the task of trying to reform someone who had no sense of right or wrong of their own - they knew what society considered right or wrong but felt no compulsion to follow it or be a good person. In the dream I decided to go with a strategy of 'you should choose good over evil because evil is dumb.' Well, not quite. More of a logical 'you're more likely to get better results for yourself if you behave in the way that is good'.
Sleep in general was not good, not good at all, mostly due to heat.
