ok so let's see , going to jot down everything i can remember from the dream i just had this night even though a lot of it doesn't relate to one another it's still from the same dream and thus still relevant
this is as far back as i can remember
i assume we were driving away down the road to the farm the way we got to our destination half way down that road , and then unloaded from the vehicle skyranger from xcom style , although there was nothing turn based about this battle , taking cover around a tall tent (which yes is not really any cover at all but if it cuts off the line of sight you're good) off the side of the road the unit , including myself (although i was not geared up with anything and acquired some loosely floating squares that were able to act as pistols) , proceeded to engage the currently unknown enemy (hah true to the title)
which appeared to be some kind of automated perimeter drone the size of a couch about 15 spaces in front of the say 5x5 space tent
as the rest of the team was running to and from the tent and other covers drawing the motion sensor fire from the drone while shotting back at it , i was scouting around the tent i guess checking for other enemies making sure we don't get flanked or anything
then the team figured out that inside the tent was the best cover as there were some poles and other small tent debris which interfered with the drone's motion sensors but still gave us a clear shot to the drone itself
so with all of us in the tent now our vision was limited to what was in front of the tent which right now was still just the drone
we had taken up prone position as there was no actual cover to hide behind , and having to shuffle around for each other still triggered the drone to fire at us although with less accuracy , there were some sweet spots where we could aim without triggering the drone , and proceeded to unload on it
that's when the real threat came , whether that drone was the blue part of it or just a random drone i can't remember , but a power ranger assortment of flying machinery that was combined and the size of a car that had the appearance of sirius from bomberman 64 top down perspective and flew like him swooped in to the battlefield , the reason i know this is because i had dream vision as well as my fluctuating first/third person vision in the dream , and since this was taking so heavily from xcom i had a top down view of the tent our unit was in when the slapped together bird like thing flew over us
thankfully though with the drone taken out (at least i assume it was by that point) the power ranger bird knew we were on the battlefield but didn't have a visual so it couldn't fire on us , so it decided to fly around a bit trying to scout us out
we used that opportunity to plan our next move when low and behold im pretty sure what was a fucking xcom zombie lifted up and came in through the side of the tent , which was really bad cause those fuckers can take a lot of dmg and deal a lot of dmg as well.....
luckily with all of us on overwatch and being so close it didn't get past it's first step inside of the tent
however it was still very disheartening as with the cover of the tent removed and the real threat still patrolling around it could have very easily spotted us through there and opened fire on us
and although there were several more zombies to gradually enter through the side of the tent from the road , the flying predator never did spot us
so once it became irritated from not being able to find us it halted back over the tent again , and lobbed 2 mini grenades at it , effectively destroying 2 corners of the tent
we sigh a sign of relief that neither of those grenades hit us , but now there was exposer to our location
which might have been a problem , if i could remember anything else from that scene before taking a huge story jump to something else completely unrelated in any way as far as i can remember....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
i also just remember after writing some of the next part that there was a scene in my dream where i had very tired eyes or something and though i was awake and active my eyes couldn't focus on anything so everything was really blurry and i couldn't really tell what anything was
and naturally without any such information i can't tell where the fuck that fit in to any of the rest of the dream that happened , but i do still remember it happening.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
im not so sure of the order in which things happen in this end scene of the dream , so i'll try to put it together in a way that makes sense....sort of.....
i had recently moved in to a new apartment place (which i actually have irl , go figure.....) with a friend of mine named nick who is quite old
and........fuck none of this is going to make any sense , oh well here goes?.....
k so from the new place i moved to i was walking down the street/hallway kinda cross thing , like a hallway big enough to be a small street or something , checking out the new area or something
at the end of the block there is only a turn to the left , which going up to the end of that block i believe brings us to a massive , sky-scrapping , empty room
more on that in a bit as im not sure if i herd i was being called back or if i just knew i was needed but i went back to the to my new place to find some stuff was happening
that stuff being my uncle was now there along with some other family , and he was explaining to me all this moving that was happening now (which a lot of has also recently happened to me irl) , something a long the lines of he was moving into where i just moved to , my mom was moving into some place next door , not sure if nick was moving but i do recall there was a money deficiency problem with him and probably me too (just like irl , wahdoya know......) that might be a contributing factor to these recent decisions....
in any case , so as my mom was busy packing up the stuff in my place that i just moved to , my uncle pointed to me some very old wooden shelving and furniture that my mom needed moved into her new place (which im still fairly certain was right next to the apartment place i had just moved to) , and so i did that with little eventfulness , but as i recall it was really just a mood setter for what was to come , a mood which i can't really describe , but it certainly wasn't the brightest of moods , in a literal sense and i suppose in a sense of my tensions were rising from all this stuff i was having to do , while at the same time im pretty sure the other's tensions on me were already quite high for whatever reason......
now , comes the transition to the crown jewel of this night's fuck upery which is the reason why i wanted to share this , also it's where pony stuff comes in.....sort of......
remember that big empty room? well that's where this final act is going to take place
i suppose after i moved those couple objects i knew shit was going to go down , so i made my way back to the room , which is easily the size of a football field maybe even bigger , only walled in to about 50 stories high , dimly lit brownish color , and im pretty sure some parts of the floor was made of deep water , but i don't recall ever swimming in it so i suppose that's unimportant
now then this is especially where the correct order of things remains a mystery as does half of the scene itself does , so i'll try my best to piece things together.....
the 2 main characters for this act also have alt characters , just like earlier i described having the all seeing dream vision while also having my own personal vision within the dream , the first being myself who's also doubling/combined/switching with the character and role of princess celestia , only this dream has her character male and actually physically old aged , so she's much more king like than prince/princess , but he's still the same character as the princess
the other character being my uncle , not sure if i should give a description of the relations to me to give insight to the mood/attitudes that manifest in this scene , and his alt character/role is discord
the gist of this scenario is that discord has been planning for a while to overthrow princes celestia's rule over canterlot/equestria/the ponies/the humans/earth/my dream what have you (celstia still being male in this scenario so not a princess though that's how my mind decided discords memory serves so that's how he thinks about it) , and this room is where it's all going to go down
i believe it starts off with my character switching to king celestia and taking up position on one of the wide wall faces , only using those godly powers to increase the wielder's size to more appropriately reflect the wielder's immense power , towering almost to the full hight of the room
a stern unyielding look in his gaze , discord then manifests on the opposite side near the other long wall of the room , also equally large in size.......
you know now that i thought about it realize i have already came across this scenario before , it was in a story that elixio wrote involving discord shrinking celestia , but then she got away , and then got twi to make her grow , only she grew huge and then went to go fight discord who responded by growing himself and proceeding to fight over canterlot which endangered a lot of civilian lives , just like how my dream scenario also involves the messing with civilian lives for this battle......
so discord exchanges some dialogue with celestia making it clear he's going to end his rule and take over , they however never make any direct assaults on each other though , it instead revolves around indirect attacks on other things that apparently have some effect on the outcome of this battle
and this is where details get reaaaally sketchy but some elements i can recall are turning back to myself character only at the top of the previous character's hight which there is now a bunch of platforms and things hanging off the wall's face that i had to quickly navigate to and run down back to the floor of the room probably so i could use some weapon against discord , all the while trying to dodge and resist his antics of trying to stop/slow me down (a sort of video game logic applying there where the super powerful bad guy doesn't just use their most powerful attack to destroy the good guy right away)
upon making it to the bottom i recall that weapon or something being the platforms themselves , there was some kind of device or thing at the bottom that controlled them in sections and so i had to use that to move them to either attack discord with or to just keep them away from him so he couldn't destroy them
i forgot if it was by me using the device , or if it was discord , or if that was how the device is supposed to be used , but kept ending up flying across the room and i had to go after it before discord , who at this point was now back more to taking on the character of my uncle and not a 50 or so ft tall dragon thing , but i believe still larger than normal and hosting some of discord's powers , could get at it or the platforms
at one instance of this chasing i remember very clearly that my mind suddenly decided that this device won't just work on it's own anymore , it needs a power source , and low and behold i had picked up a power brick through all this franticness , and im pretty sure through this portion of the chase i was running or swimming through water while holding the power brick high to make sure it didn't get wet so it would work properly when i got to the device which had now landed near the corner next to the bunch of platforms i had jumped down , which also had a power outlet next to it for my convenience.....
i don't remember if i make it to the device that time or not or what happens immediately after , the next scene i can remember im pretty sure both character are back in their fim character roles and probably back to their larger size as well , and this time discord's brought civilian lives into his efforts to make celestia yield as he does a manner of unspeakable things that celestia/me have to try to figure out how to stop/revert
some things probably involving positioning , some involving ufo/aliens , and maybe even some mind control/manipulation (although discord kinda does that passively all the time anyways) but the one thing i do have some recollection of was the last thing that determined the outcome of the fight , which was.....
actually to interrupt , a lot of theme elements i just talked about and am currently thinking of all seem familiar in the metal slug game that i saw gamegrumps play , which is probably the origin of these thoughts.....
which was inflating a number of human/ponies (not really sure which they were at this point) he had scrounged up , and me/lestia was tasked with trying to figure out how to return them to normal before they lost their lives to exploding like a couple already have
i feel like noting i recall there being some nudity at this point , though that might actually just be my mind making sense out of the part where when your body's surface area has expanded 3 or 4 times it's size the cloths don't expand with it.....
my character and my alt character's mind's not being able to come up with a solution , we were then presented a sort of control device i think made by discord himself for whatever reason trying to give us a chance to do something about it
it was basically a tablet , that monitored the condition of those he inflated , and it was represented as such by inflating blobs of fleshy stuff , what it actually looked and felt like was chewing gum when a bubble is blown , however it was in fact not chewing gum that was on this tablet.....
so the flesh blobs would inflate in correspondence to how much the people/ponies were being inflated , some of them next to bursting others not inflated at all yet , all i could do was interact with the tablet physically so tried different methods of applying pressure and sometimes it worked and managed to deflate the blob of flesh and thusly deflating the person that was corresponding to it as well
the way in which it worked was not consistence at all so agitating the tablet would also cause others who were not inflated to become inflated
after some more frantic desperate attempts at trying to save our subject's lives before discord decided to pop them all , we had triggered the exploding of several ponies ourselves from the use of that tablet while trying to save them
things got really dark at that moment (not literally) , our heart and mind sank at what we had just done , pretty sure discord had a victory smirk on his face , and other by standing ponies , ones that were not effected by this battle yet , were standing and looking up at celestia , disgust/disgrace/dissatisfaction/maybe even hatred was in their expressions in what celestia had just done , or rather failed to do , and both of the godly creatures knew it
celestia knew that those ponies didn't want her to be their ruler anymore , so he accepted defeat and the battle was over so both beings returned to their normal slightly larger than normal sizes
he then resigned saying this , tried to remember as close to the exact words he used
"if it is what the people want , then i shall resign from my rule , we have accomplished so much together my little ponies , it saddens me to leave you....."
the king pony was hugging one of the guard ponies that had gathered around for the (sorta) epic battle taking place , though of course they could do little to intervene to help their monarch , now it was just a tear flow session with the royal guard having to see their leader resign like that
discord came strutting up with his secretary (who i believe was shown before this but didn't play a role in anything till now) who looked like that devil version of celestia from panty and stockings with garter belt and was basically playing the role that sloth from full metal alchemist played , and discord asked her what they should name his new office or something
also briefly asking what her office should be called as well and they had a similar trade off name but i can't remember what it was....
next actually something i wanna make dream
...shit that's almost the length of a full story itself......
ok , the format of this dream seemed to want to be in that of an already established canadian style drawn cartoon
i would have included that 'for children' adjective like that other canadia show that i don't know about but keep seeing the 2 child main characters one of which has that red nose , but this dream got pretty freaking intense so that rating is out of the window....
the main characters for this story are a male dog and female cat (hur hur generic i know)
however , these 2 characters have the ability to speak and make bipedal motions like humans (hur hur still generic)
BUT that's because they are actually a super technologically intelligent alien species who happen to appear as those 2 kinds of animals
and because of their advancements they're basically able to do any kind of cool cartoon thing you can think of from any cartoon in the past , im talking dbz type of shit here......
also for a visual description of them , i believe the dog was a plain borwn maybe a bit pale or golden color , slightly bushy tail , not long fur (although you can't really tell since cartoon outlines and all) , and at time was the size of a medium sized dog but other times in the dream i had direct control of character if not i replaced the character outright , and while standing fully up i remember being equal hight to everyone else if not a bit taller , which would signify him being slightly larger than the medium sized dog would be
and the cat was a small (relatively speaking to the dog , not like an actually small species of cat) black cat , that could look pretty freaking evil at time (again i don't like cats.....or wait i came back and added this before the first time i mentioned that didn't i?....)
slick , agile , i believe she also had one of those japanies like cat bells near the end of her tail and possibly a ribbon on the ear curtsy of her 'owner' human fluttershy
and i guess noticing that when however it was they got to earth they decided to try and play the roll of those species to better learn about the dominant species of the planet , humans
and guess who the human cast is going to be?
fucking the main 6 that's who , also with some princesses thrown in there for good measure and stuff
although this is going to be a bit tricky for dream remembering since the beginning of what was the second half of my dreaming session for this night didn't start off with having them being the external characters , it was just the usual made up characters and known family members , who stayed through most of the dream i believe but sometimes also being proxied by pony characters
ok i think that's all the background i need to give , now for actually dream remembering
so as i said once these elements (lul) of the dream applied with the 2 main characters it appeared to be starting off like any old episodic opening
oh god ok what were they doing , it was the kind of opening where it has a bird's eye view and the camera comes out from some tree branches as it closes in on the main characters , i believe they were playing outside like any normal cat/dog would do , sometimes doing bipedall stuff , but the problem is i can't remember the motivation or the means for what came next
but i could use it as an opportunity to explain their character a bit , again very generic but extremely exemplified by their origin as i will explain in a second
the dog like alien is the stronger more capable of the 2 , and the cat being cat like which is being a self centered asshole has a bit of an inferiority complex because of this , even though they both have pretty much the same intelligence and technical capabilities
while the dog is a more peaceful loving non interventionist and thus is far more reserved on what kinds of super alien like things he does on this primitive planet , the cat again has the personality of a self centered asshole (i really don't like cats ok) so it's open to causing chaos and using whatever tech abilities it can to try and one up her dog like alien companion
and that's basically the crux of the plot , kinda shity when compared to something actually good like fim....
but so in the episode i just dreampt up this meant the cat getting particularly jealous about something the dog did or received from interacting with the human family , which again would help if i could remember what that was to be able to justify this , but we can make that up if the story does get made
the cat used what i assume was a technological ability they had to make something that could instantly clone them , and even clone the clones
the clones were fully functional , retained all information and personality , yet while being self aware i guess were also acceptive of the fact that they were clones and thus didn't really act on their own unless directed to by the original
the only way to identify the clones from the original was that they appeared slightly darker and washed out and see through in their color , and they didn't talk to much , where's the main character cat likes to talk a lot
also the color for them at this point was shifting more to a blue scheme , so the main character cat was actually mostly slightly dark blue in her appearance , to help make this distinction from the clones easier i assume
ok im gonna start picking up the pace on what actually happened in the dream as im getting more tired and don't want to be here for another hour....
(ahlf an hour later still hasn't gotten passed the initial cloning , HAH fat chance of that.....)
so the cat makes a couple clones of itself , all mostly equal in capabilities to the original just as i said have a more reserved nature because they're aware they are clones , and this began to open up a can of worms that the dog recognized and didn't like at all
but due to his non internationalism he didn't do anything physically to stop the cat from doing this
i can't remember seeing if she had a machine in hand that did this or if it was just something they could do by thinking about it because they're that biologically advanced too or something
so for whatever reason it was that made the cat decide to do this in the first place she starts toying with the dog attacking him in different physical kinds of ways , just spiced up by their dbz like abilities
but because the dog is tougher/wiser than her he is able to beat her + the couple clones back without much trouble , all while trying to explain to her that this is a bad idea and she shouldn't being doing it.....
....man , for having an idea of such technologically/biologically/whateverogically advanced species of life form , they sure are primitive as fuck in their sociology , thus is the bane of our cultural lag i suppose , man i wish this taint wasn't a problem for our species , and that it stopped effecting things like my dreams in such ways as to make characters that can literally duplicate all type of matter out of nothing in an instant still resort to this kind of super petty bullshit , im suddenly thinking this isn't as great an idea as it initially seemed , i don't want to keep reinforcing this type of bullshit any longer.......
but for the sake of not forgetting anything , i'll get the rest of what i remember down and see what whoever i send this to thinks.....
ok so , oh and btw once of clones have sustained enough physical damage (which is a lot due to dbz nature of action) their bodies just kind of explode is a soft manner and they die , possibly getting a bit of blue jellofied flesh on surrounding objects....
so dog takes them out , cat's beaten back , this fuels her intheryorety complex to the empth degree , so she decides her best course of action to get back at dog was to do the same thing again , only more
i can clearly remembering seeing a scene directly facing the cat where she's looking evil , kind of powering an object freely spinning in between her hands , as she clones herself , and those 2 cats make 2 more cats , and then she just multiplies herself a couple more times till there's about 30 or 40 cat clones now
this was way to much for dog , which also i believe was the only name they went by in the dream as well....
and cat knew this
now whether they fought again first of dog ran away or cat+clones ran away i can't really remember , point being the scene eventually moves on from their home (which was a copy of the only place i'll consider home)
what happens after , a lot of location and character interactive specific stuff that's usually quite hard to remember , but im not so sure on the actual importance of this information compared to everything else that was just jotted down , but it was all still from the same dream and can be used as a place holder
so dog is heading in to the city now (as the living location i was talking about is kind of just on the edge of it) , the character readily interchanging with self insertion of myself , being followed by my mother , who i think was the one that could be/was the place holder for celestia , and a large overweight hairy male character who've i've never seen before who was probably just some extra from earlier in the dream
we were heading into town to follow or get away from cat+clones to to find a way to deal with this , but this was exactly what cat wanted me/dog to do as part of a little game to get revenge
what she ended up doing , and i think dog knew this was a possibility to , was she had herself and her clones transform into regular looking humans to disguise them amoungts the population
kind of taking inspiration from that scene in that changeling fic i really like where she confronts and warns the villain that if he continues to be a villain she's going to get him , and he'll never see it coming , because she could literally be anyone he sees , his kid , his mom , some random person walking down the street
so dog was on a mission to stop cat's foolishness before it got out of hand and destroyed the whole city or something , but first he had to find her
and when he did find he , had he to make sure he didn't fall to any sneak attacks , that would be devastating
just a quick mention of a scene i remember happening but can't remember how it fits together with the rest of the dream
the humans were taking to long....to...........
hmm actually , i just had a secondyary thought about my issue with the social cutler depicted in this dream , more on that later.....
taking to long to walk into the city and me/dog pot impatient to i just called their attention
also this is the scene i was talking about where standing up i/dog was just as tall as humans
had them get close facing us in position connecting their hands so i/dog could do goku's super old and cool trick of instantly teleporting to where we needed to go , which first off was just some building in the town
but again i can't remember how that fits together since the only next scene im able to recall was me/dog teleporting by myself into a different store , one i liked to be at , it was a computer tech store but also had elements of other things like a bar as there were a couple tough guys playing pool on the other end of the store , strange i know....
but so i/dog went there because it was a good place for battery charging , which was kind of necessary for dog/cat to keep their power source charged in order to be able to do things to expend it like dbz fighting and teleporting and stuff , again strange i know but my mind wanted their abilities to all stem from technology i suppose and not have any of it be actual dbz like where 'oh we just trained really had and got our power level super high so we can blow up planet now' , of course dbz's ki based power not being the same as electronic power
however cat knew this was going to be his first place for stopping and already set an ambush in place , only just getting there dog wasn't able to know who at the store was out of place , but cat made that quite apparent when she got her clones to drop their disguise and start attacking dog
i/he tried to fight back for a moment but being in a place like that and getting ambushed that wasn't a smart thing to do so we quickly teleported out of there before things got to hectic and we weren't able to focus on a different place to do be
we also tried to think of more random places where cat was likely not to have her clones already stationed for an attack
so get got a bit of a breather but many of cat+clones were still moving through the sky trying to find us
at some point the dream had us come to a hospital like place , only thing was the family was there , because fluttershy was needing treatment for....something....
im going to assume what happened was either the fighting damaged the surroundings so much that it also hurt fluttershy who was in the house i guess , or she initially saw cat and dog fighting because they started going all out and cat started making clones of herself.......
actually that's another odd thing i should mention too , idk if the family knows about cat and dog's true potential , they don't seem to act like it , but then there was that scene with dog teleporting my mom/celestia/a member of that family , plus there's all the dbz fighting , so idk how anyone in that universe not be aware of that.....
so yeah maybe she saw them fighting/not getting along and (even though in retrospect stopping them would have been what the real fluttershy would have done) she got depressed thinking this was caused by her improperly caring for cat
so much so that i guess she wouldn't even talk to anyone else so the rest of the family got really worried and took her to get checked out and because she still wouldn't respond they put her through a full body scanning machine to try and figure out what was wrong with her
which put her body through a lot of radiation and made her temporarily sick with symptoms of the flu (not how radiation poisoning works i know)
so here dog comes in and finds this out , and find's cat+clones are already there and already know about this i guess , idk if she even cared though or if it just fulled her hate towards dog even more for w/e reason
god danmit im hungry , gotta warp this up
ok so it's kind of a sad scene there seeing the family huddled around a sick fluttershy , but cat ain't having any of that as a clone comes up behind us , and holy fuck does she get us hard......
my dream really put an emphasis on how big that claw was digging into our back left shoulder and how fucking painful it was.....
welp that was our cue to teleport away before we needed hospital treatment next.....
after we left and cat+clones followed trying to find us again the scene at the hospital continued for a moment
human twilight was leaning into the kemo'd fluttershy saying "come on be clear , be clear please" while she was humbling in her sleep hopping she would reveal what she problem was
fluttershy's line
"ms *cute sounding name like flufykins* , when you whine it makes me sad"
which i think was that whenever cat got jealous of when dog was being treated nice in the family cat would complain to her for extra attention , and she interpreted this as her not taking proper care of cat , so that already had her down and when she saw them actually fighting it was too much for her to bare
soo let's see , im having trouble remembering how it ends now , there's some more teleporting , some more fighting , i think eventually word of twilight's discovery for fluttershy's current depressed (and now sick) predicament got to cat/dog , and that made cat realize the error of her ways and gave up the fighting and then everything was peachy from there on out?......
idk clearly i streamlined that and skipped over some more cool fighting details which im having trouble remembering now as well , so i could finish eating this snack from how hungry i got and losing 2 and a half hours of sleep over this is more than what i wanted to......
...shit that's almost the length of a full story itself......
hah but it's actually a few words less than my previous dream explanation.....
