So I had a new dream and a dream merger. Neither were nightmares, but they were strange enough for me to record.
It starts off like something out of a YA romance novel. Evidently, the stars/constellations need to get replaced every so many years and certain people are these chosen vessels. The girlfriend of the POV of this dream is one of them and she is very sad because it will basically kill her in the process. The POV dude is not sad for some reason, all the people who are going to transform are gathered together for a party…and they turn into cinnamon rolls.
Like, the Pillsbury cinnamon rolls kind. Sitting in a glass cake pan. They just sit there for awhile, on a table with the rest of the desserts, and eventually they turn into dough people. But with multicolored and layered dough for clothing. And when they were shown to the night sky, they transformed into ethereal star people, gave their sad goodbyes, and left to become part of the stars.
All except for three, which were still cinnamon rolls for some reason. It then switched to me being the POV, and now suddenly my family and most of my cousins are here at this party, and I take it upon myself to guard the remaining cinnamon rolls to ensure they turn into star people.
This ends up in me taking them home as leftovers, since the party ended. When we got home, one of them finally turned into a dough person and I got them to see the sky before the night ended. They had the oddest transformation of the bunch and split into multiple people before flying off, but that left two cinnamon rolls. Mom, convinced they wouldn’t turn, tried to eat them and I had to rescue them.
I hid them in the fridge somewhere she couldn’t find, at some unknown point they turned into dough people while in the fridge…and then the dream jump-cut to them having transformed into star people, hugging each other with a tearful goodbye as they’re going to the opposite end of the sky, and leave.
End of dream.
Or rather, end of dream part 1, because it went into a part 2. Part 2 is a merger of some other dreams I’ve had in the past.
In this one, I’m walking through some forest trail which can’t decide if it has sidewalks or just dirt paths. And there are some baby penguins roaming about, nature is healing. Except instead of the normal healthy ones from prior dreams, these ones are much larger and fatter than normal. Dream me assumes this is the result of other walkers feeding them bread, causing them to swell up and are slowly dying. I’m trying to work out how I might save the penguins when the two dough people I’m carrying decide it’s time to transform.
They become these weird things of energy and rush into a wall of reeds and cat tails in the…river? Pond? That is now suddenly there, and they’re nearly two stories tall. One of them bursts out of the reeds and is now this humanoid crab-mantis hybrid monster. If Scyther from Pokémon and the crab dude from One Punch Man had an ugly child, this was it. He was trying to decided if he should be cool and just chill with me or be awesome and try killing me, when the other one came out. The other turned into a female anthro praying mantis, who introduced herself by slicing down the wall of plant matter all anime style. And then immediately attacked the crab man, stopping just shy of beheading him because she was trying to decide if the beheading was worth it, since then she would have to use the remaining corpse for mating purposes. Crab man did not much resist, until it became a debate over which one of them was going to kill me.
I was having none of this and yelled at them about how the penguins are dying. Whoever would be the mantis’ dead lover could be sorted later, penguin life was more important.
Final end of the dreams.
