Nancy Shiffrin - Your Bedside Dreambook - Major - 1977

[gxrtyz]

had a very strange dream last night where minecraft had come out with this new mob named something akin to 'the observer'. It was this thing that would attach itself to the outside of glass blocks and from the inside would look like a bunch of red lines (blocky, of course) forming this shape that resembled a big keyhole with the circle part being reminiscent of an eye. It would supposedly protect the player from being attacked inside the building it was attached to, but if you directly looked at it from the outside of the building it would become a big flesh-monster and try to kill you.

Okay. So. Consider.

Texas Death Match. Mox and Ibushi. It's outside. Kota gets a gigantic fireworks budget and Mox gets a vest made of removable forks and boots with a special compartment to store no fewer than 7 screwdrivers. The Elite and BCC are stuck in cages close enough to rage flirt with each other but nothing else.

wild i think i just has a dream inside a dream moment but i didn’t even realize it nor did it wake me up (rip only slept for 5 hours)

anyway my fading memories of dreams was this

1. okay the dream the work my dream self up was there was some kind of Killer going around like on a stage?? and i already knew it was gonna kill me but when whatever The Killer was made eye contact with me i just start fearfully begging it to just kill me already because i didn’t want a painful drawn out death (weirdly enough i never once tried running or even stood up during all this) and The Killer deliberately went after the guy sitting right next to me before going attacking me from above

2. but then dream me wakes up and realize it was just a dream so i get out of bed and walk around the house for a bit until i walk by a window and realize it raining and there’s a really big flood (like a river in the street kind) going on outside but i’m not worried at all for some reason i think i briefly seeing my sister too and she’s telling me i need to put on my water shoes before going out with the weather like this so i go back upstairs searching for some water shoes expect i don’t have those and i don’t really think the slippers my sister was wearing where even water shoes either?? and i also notice the flood waters are making all the sinks and bathtubs full but never quite fully spill over but instead of getting worried any of that i get oddly cocky and start thinking yeah well okay no water shoes but i can totally handle this with no shoes anyway and as i’m about to step into some flood water i wake up for real this time

[medieval-elephants]

Angry elephants? In your dreams... According to a book of dream interpretation made about 1000 years ago in Canterbury or Winchester, if you dream about an antagonistic elephant (or ylp in Old English), that might indicate something about an accusation. Handling ivory (ylpes ban in Old English) in a dream signifies a big obstacle. Dreaming about buying or selling ivory means great sadness. Eunuchs and iron are also bad news, but if you dream of handling wheat your trade will increase. (You can find an edition and transation of the full text-- known as the Somniale Danielis after the Biblical prophet Daniel-- in Roy Liuzza, Anglo-Saxon Prognostics: An Edition and Translation of Texts from London, British Library, MS Cotton Tiberius A.iii (D.S. Brewer, 2011), p. 95.) This particular manuscript is a fascinating"handbook" probably made for an archbishop of Canterbury with everything an archbishop might need-- from the rules his cathedral staff lived by to spare sermons to notes on pregnancy-- and apparently dream interpretation was also a going concern for a busy archbishop. (For more on this manuscript, see Tracey-Anne Cooper, Monk-Bishops and the English Benedictine Reform Movement: Reading London, BL, Cotton Tiberius A. iii in Its Manuscript Context (2015).)

As you can see, the text above was written in Latin and someone at Winchester or Canterbury translated it into English in the smaller, more spaced out lines in between the Latin lines. The Latin version circulated relatively widely in Europe and was itself based on earlier Greek dreambooks. Some Greek dreambooksgives more options for the meaning of dream elephants. According to one Byzantine dreambook, dreaming about seeing elephants or being chased by them means you will be overpowered by your enemies; however, dreaming about sitting or riding on an elephant signifies great honors. Oberhelmann has suggested that the chasing elephants may have been inspired by war elephants. (See Steven M. Oberhelman, Dreambooks in Byzantium (2016) for a translation of the full text of this dreambook.) Meanwhile, the tamed, ridable elephant also echoes classical motifs about the noble, wise, even virtuous elephant. It just goes to show that while humans have been dreaming about elephants for thousands of years, we never quite dream the same way.

Got an idea

So i had this idea and i understand if you dont do it

so you know how farmer erases memories of people at the shrine?

What if a character (you can choose or do every character if you like) suddenly rememberd some of the past? Will they think it was a dream? Will they hate the farmer ?

I want to hear your opinion

Thank you regardless if you do it or not

Bye bye

Hello-hello! 👋

I decided to write about SDV bachelorette in this ask, hope it's ok. Thank you, and enjoy 😊❤️

Emily:

Emily can't understand why she has the same weird dream. First a stranger stands in some dark place with a stone as beautiful as the heavens, and then two unfamiliar children transform into beautiful doves and fly away from her. No matter how much the blue-haired girl tried to find the meaning in the dreambooks - to no avail. A strange sense of déjà vu occurs when the local Farmer gives her sister a prismatic shard for her birthday. The girl doesn't understand why her sister Haley hates this gift so much. This is a very beautiful stone!

A stone as beautiful as the sky, a stone... The same kind of stone the Farmer gave her when they.... got married?? But it must have been a dream. Wasn't it?

Emily had never felt a strong sense of protecting her sister before. It's... very strange.

Maru:

It's been so long since Maru turned on MarILDA and let her creation go free. And she's so glad her robot didn't forget about her - MarILDA sent a message by fax! Maru no longer remembers if she had set this feature originally or if the robot was able to set itself up, but still. Impatiently, the young inventor pulled a piece of paper from the fax machine and began to read quickly.

"Greetings, creator Maru. I hope your life with your partner Farmer is satisfying you..."

Wait, with who?

What MarILDA is writing about? Farmer's not her partner, she's..... She's.... Why can't she get rid of the idea that she didn't turn on the robot alone? Maru wanted to show it to someone, right? Someone special.

No, that's impossible. She can't have memory lapses like that... Why is Marilda convinced she's married to Farmer? It doesn't make any sense.

Abigail:

"You hit Farmer because you dreamed they were your spouse and betrayed you? Are you serious right now!" Abigail can understand her father's sarcastic tone: hitting people because she was the one who dreamed something there is utter nonsense and unjustified violence. But she knows it wasn't a dream, she knows for sure. Like broken pieces that slowly but surely became part of the whole again - her and Farmer's date, the Mermaid pendant, the wedding, the fight in the house, divorce... Their hidden smirk when they told her they didn't know what Abigail was talking about.

Since her parents wouldn't be able to help her... Well, that just leaves that strange bearded man in the tower. She has to make sure it's not all a sick fantasy.

Penny:

Penny was so happy and truly grateful to the Farmer - they decided to donate her many interesting books, which will definitely be useful for teaching the children. When they invited the young teacher into the house, she couldn't tear herself away from the cozy and beautiful kitchen design. Everything is so cute and comfortable! Not like her trailer room.... That beautiful rug, those lovely flowers, that cozy strawberry decal.

The decal... Strawberries.... That's the...

"A 'Strawberry House' theme? Something warm and inviting, right? I like that too! What a wonderful choice, my love!"

Penny dropped the books from the hands the Farmer handed her. They looked confused at the red-haired girl, whose face was overflowing with horror and tears streaming down her eyes. Without having time to ask her anything, she ran away.

"Huh, what's gotten into her?"

Haley:

"Do you have ponies on the farm?"

Haley felt paralyzed by her own question, addressed to the Farmer. She couldn't explain what it was, but snippets from either a dream or from the past flashed before her eyes:

"So you don't have a pony? Eh, boring..." "Wow! You're not as weak as I thought." "Thanks for finding Grandma's bracelet. I'll never forget that..." "You know, I'm starting to like the smell of green for some reason." "Buy a pony for our farm? Oh, thank you so much, honey! Let me give you a kiss!"

"D o y o u h a v e a p o n y o n y o u r f a r m ?"

The girl doesn't want to ask them about ponies ever again.

Leah:

"Hey-hey, neighbor! Are you home? Can I borrow a glass of hazelnut from you?"

Leah had been standing on the doorstep of the farmhouse for about five minutes now, banging on the door, waiting for the owner. While she was gazing out of boredom at the beautiful fields full of delicious crops, her gaze now stopped at the overflowing trash can. Smashed CDs, old newspaper, soda cans....

A broken wooden toy sticking out of there... with Leah's signature on it. But she didn't make any toys for Farmer, so what does that mea-

"Darling, look what wonderful toys I've made for our future baby. Isn't it wonderful?"

One insignificant detail, her broken toy. A few seconds was enough for the shocked girl to quickly recover...

.....and fly into a pure rage.

With all her might, she threw the cup at the window of their house. When a disgruntled Farmer quickly jumped out at the sound of shattering glass, they were quickly taken aback by the girl's stare. A look full of hatred, anger.

"We need to talk, dear neighbor."

point is; i just find the more specialized ship names to be adorable, we need more of them. feel free to drop ship names in the notes, i wanna make a list

[sofiiawithtwoeyes]

I think I get it now. This obsession with everything Hobonichi. The smoothness of the paper, the compactness of the book… Oh, and the fact that the pages get louder as I fill them with words and silly little drawings? I’m afraid I’m team Hobonichi now.

This purchase wasn’t planned. I didn’t even have a good use for it when I bought it back in November, but it’s since become my little dreambook - not a dream diary, but a place for dream images and daydreams, thoughts on media and reflections on things that make me feel something.

Finally got to redecorate the cover today. I love how the dark grey looks with gold, and how it completes my Midori B6 Slim planner/bullet journal both aesthetically and functionally.

J's theory is that Hangman shows up tonight...to cost Will the belt. He needs Swerve to have that championship so he can steal it from him. He doesn't want simply to be world champion again. He wants to take it from Swerve.

to preface this dream was in the style of my little pony characters?? for some reason anyway

the dream starts out in the pov of the little kid exploring some ancient magical site that connects with her right? and the mom is one that’s been taking her to this place for a good while for reasons

but for some reason when she finds out the magic of this place is like real or at least still active or something she starts to keep the kid away from the area but also for some reason it was a bit of a secret she was taking her kid here in the first place? so this mom character in the dream just start gaslighting her husband about their child development

saying stuff like “like oh thank god our little dear has finally started talking soon” to which of courser her husband to confused by because the kid has been at the talking age for like a while now like age 6 or 5 old enough to starting forming some memories at least but nope mom refuses to confront facts and continues her gaslight campaign and apparently it works be there’s a time skip in this part of the dream

to where everyone is a bit older and the pov is with the husband speaking to like?…? his ..? therapist maybe?? and his therapist ls like “why don’t you draw something you feel represents deceit in your life”

so the husband guy starts painting this of basically like the sun verison of nightmare moon and at this point this is where i realize mid-dream wait is this dream about princes fucking celestial and her fucked parents? this realization does not snap me awake i think i kinda start kind of lucid dreaming from here I start controlling the plot in a less stream of consciousness sort of way

and so for Some reason??? the husband character it’s revealed to my brain his lore at this point is that his been in an gay affair to maintain some level of normalcy from his wife insane levels of gaslight because i think his know aware his being lied to but has no idea what about just that it might have something to do with all with her daughter kind haywire magic

speaking of which the dream switches pov again to luna now and basically her role in all of this was to come out of nowhere and save celestia from herself with a lullaby and then i wake up

i think i might draw the painting section of this dream it’s really stuck in my mind a very evocative image that i can’t get rid off and i think i’m explaining it poorly anyway
