Two dreams. One fairly fleshed out but quick to talk about, another very vague. The vague one involved time travel and trying to stop a murder in a snowstorm, at my old University (particularly, where people would wait for a bus). Except I think I was Dr. Tachyon from the Wild Cards books, but in the body of someone else.
The other dream (the one that inspired the title) was also set at University, sort of... there was a huge laser tag game going on. We had lasers and sensors that detected when we were dead, and helmet communicators so our team could keep in contact. The dream was pretty cool. I remember reporting on locations of large groups of enemies (although I had trouble getting the comm working), and shooting at people. I never got shot. I know a few people on different sides were people I went to school with but I can't remember specifics anymore. The only other person I remember was Robin. Yes, apparently Robin was on my team. Comics Robin that is, not bad-Batman-TV-series Robin or Teen Titans cartoon Robin. We were the blue team, btw. There was also just a hint of some romantic potentiality between me and a (female) teammate just before we started but then we got separated for the rest of the dream. Anyway, the dream ended just as I was in some indoor area sneaking up on someone who had a hat on so I couldn't tell what team he was on.
