nonionayA slightly distressing dream:
First, I was with some friends driving up a coast, and on the water side, there was tall chain link fence, and the water came right up to this. As in, there was a giant wall of water held up by nothing other than some wire. Our reaction to this was, "that's pretty... but I don't think it should be happening."
We got to where we were going, which was some kind of resort/research center. There, we got on this deep sea sub, the kind with a remote controlled probe attached. We went down into the ocean and suddenly, there wasn't any water! We were wedged in a crack in this trench. Then, this old black guy with a scraggly beard and ridiculous shorts shows up. He's some kind of merman, and it was he messing with the water, both on our drive there, and at that moment.
He invited the land people to come down and visit. Everyone was excited about this, but when the tourists made it down to his realm, he'd make the water come back and drown them. No one seemed to notice this but me and Keffy, however.
Fortunately, I was a half-mermaid, and I told him who I was, and that I could kick his ass with my !!Mary Sue Powers of Doom!!
I took off all my clothes (in a bathroom in the resort, in case you're curious) and got on the next sub to his not-actuall-underwater-at-the-moment kingdom. I thought I'd be alone, but this little old lady got on.
So I'm hanging out naked with this little old lady, waiting for water to gush in and kill her.
Evil Merman doesn't do that, though. If there's water, I could turn into a mermaid and kick his ass (supposedly). So I did save that little old lady. I ended up crawling through a tiny window to get to where there was water. I tried to turn into a mermaid, but it didn't quite work. (How do you turn into a mermaid? I'm glad you asked. Go under the water and exhale all the air from your lungs. Quickly, take a deep breath and hope that you're a mermaid by the time you finish feeling the water fill your lungs.) I sort of halfway turned, got a lot of tails, then turned back. But I didn't drown, either, so that's a plus.
Then I woke up, and I'll never know if Evil Merman kept drowning tourists.
This dream tells me two things: 1) I need to write about mermaids
and 2) I need to practice my lucid dreaming again and get back my dream mojo.
And possibly 2.5) talk diplomatically to Evil Merman and find out why he's killing people, without threatening pathetically to kick his ass.
