#it's made up of Wyatt and his friends twins Ryan and River

I'm sharing my latest dream journal entry, because it's kind of like a fanfic...

So, last night’s dream was a mash-up of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Twin Paranormal, and Dungeons & Dragons.

The first "scene" showed the Enterprise crew scanning a planet for their missing away team. The ST crew all had D&D-style stats and levels, but they were far too high-level to be actual D&D. Most of them were 115th level. Data was 557th level. I'm guessing this was how they gave him his superior android strength, speed, etc.

Anyway, they were scanning for the missing away team members, knowing the planet was occupied by violent and dangerous alien creatures. Cut to the other "scene" of the dream on the surface of the planet…

Twin Paranormal were the missing away team. They'd run into the aliens, and River had been injured. The "scene" I saw had River and Wyatt hiding out in an old barn while River's twin Ryan went on a solo mission to find medical supplies for him.

River was unconscious, and had been placed inside a big metal watering trough (not in water, mind you) like a bed. It hid him from anyone who came into the door of the barn, which was across the room. There were two boards missing from the bottom of the door, leaving a gap.

Wyatt was uninjured, and was using the watering trough as cover, ducking behind it to stay out of the line of sight of the door. Alien creatures paced past the door occasionally, and each time they did, Wyatt had to make a stealth roll to keep him and River safely hidden.

Wyatt successfully passed two stealth check rolls with three dice each (one for each enemy, for some reason, even though that ought to have been the enemies rolling and not him in D&D rules…) He eventually decided to try to patch the door.

Digging out tools from some crates behind the watering trough, Wyatt was about to sneak over beside the door to block the line of sight through it when another group of aliens walked past. He had to drop everything and do a stealth roll, fast.

He rolled three dice as he'd done before, but this time something went wrong. The "dice" had turned into small rectangular glass bottles. They clacked together, and two of them started leaking brown liquid everywhere. Perfume.

Wyatt couldn't read the numbers for two out of the three "dice", and was trying to wipe them off to make sure he passed his stealth roll when I woke up.

Never a dull moment in dreamland for me! 😂

My ideal ending for this thing: The aliens saw Wyatt and charged into the barn. Ryan arrived just in time to help fight the aliens, giving Wyatt (clearly the rogue-like class here) a chance to backstab them. They tried to patch up River, but he was too wounded—he needed a doctor.

More aliens closed in, because the fight broke the old barn door to pieces. Ryan and Wyatt prepared to fight the aliens, even though it was a losing fight, because they wouldn't leave River. The Enterprise beamed the three of them out just in time, and everybody lived. The end!

(Why am I tempted to draw fanart of Twin Paranormal as Star Trek crewmen fighting aliens in an old barn… 😂 My brain is weird, folks. I hope it's at least entertaining to read about, though. This is why I dream journal!)
