I had a dream and in the setting of the dream The Magnus archives was a trilogy of books, and I was reading though the 3rd one. .... and of course geeking out about it to a dude I was traveling with. And from what I told him the first 2 books had a normal narrative structure, appropriately subversive as tma should be but still comprehensible. But the third one's gimmic was somewhere in the book two lovecraftian entities are conversing through implanting certain lines into the book as if they were always there, and you can decipher them through like 3 different types of decoding stacked one on top of another. And as you do, the messages get gradually more frantic, the beings starting to spot that you're listening in to their conversation, trying to make it harder to decipher, and failing as you find more and more of the messages. It reaches the point where the beings start to bargain with whomever is reading, and the protagonist demands thar they tell him where his sister is. Haven't read beyond that tho cause I was so excited I just had to tell all about it to the other guy, and of course I woke up then
The thing is I have no idea of inside of the dream The book was just a normal book with arg elements meant to look like you're conversing with omniscient creatures, or if I was deadass witnessing a supernatural book, and I don't know which of those possibilities is more fun
#the funniest part is that outside of the book the dream was still weird af#there was some YA novel plot with conspiracies and thd guy i was with was a cyborg who stopped his asthma attacks with an xbox controller#but i was more interested in the book than the real life adventure happening to me in that dream#anyway#tma#shiptopst#dream#i should start making a tag for my freams i be dreamposting#the magnus archives
