Actually it is not the first time I have been armed with a gun in one of Hookbill's dreams, I belive it was me and Fea who tried to killd The BW in one some time ago.

Last night I dreamt that I visited SpM's house. Nobody answered the door so I broke in, as you do. Then his wife came up to me, but I explained I was looking for SpM, so she led me to him. He was doing something in his garage.
Seriously, SpM, your house is gigantic. |

To avoid a debacle and to placate Volo, I put here two BDer dreams that for some reason I never posted on this thread -

Well, actually when we are speaking of it, I remember Volo being in one of my dreams as well - it was from last Wednesday to Thursday, though I don't actually remember what was going on in there, that was why I didn't post it. It also featured TM, to whom I spoke on the phone (now given the following events... hmm... interesting ) But I don't know what it was about. I only know it took place in metro.

I must say this thread has always somehow seemes strange, but interesting in the same time to me until now, and even more now, since I've been dreamt of.
I personally dream little and only of people I know very well. So it seems strange that someone would dream of someone you only know from an internet forum and that you have never met or talked to. I wonder how I looked like in the dream...maybe a golden light...?

A few nights ago (or perhaps it was day) I dreamed that Bethberry was on National Bingo Night and posted a special thread here exorting us all to watch. I turned on the television and tried to figure out who she was, having no idea what her real name is or what she looks like. There was a very confident, somewhat cheeky woman on the show who looked to be in her thirties and who had long, bright golden hair. Her name was Beth Haus, and I decided that that was most likely our Bb.
I really don't know how to explain it. I despise the very notion of that show and have never had any intention of watching it. Also, in the dream, Bb was answering trivia questions instead of playing bingo. Strange.

Today I had a dream, and I'm writing it here "fresh" so that I don't forget it, though I still already did most of it. I remember however the main points, like that it was that the Innocents won WWXXXIII, and then Aganzir wrote on the WW thread that she'd like to mod her own game, but she also explained what the game would look like - she said it's going to be somewhat different, as it will take place in some half-drowned structure, of which she drew a plan, these were like two horizontal corridors (first was like one level below the other), and then one long vertical shaft running through them, with a ladder so that you can get to the other level with it, and at the upper end of it there was a hatch. In several places in the complex there was water (i.e. they were drowned), and also there were let's say three lever switches in the complex, but I don't know what they were for. I thought "hmm, nice, but what is the game supposed to look like?" Aganzir explained that the people will be describing where they go through the complex and what they do, while I thought then that Aganzir probably doesn't know that there are the RPG rooms for making RPGs, and that this has no connection with Werewolves. Suddenly it was a normal game of WW like the others. I don't know the exact numbers, but I suppose there were 3 wolves and classic hunter, ranger, seer... what I remember 100% was that Aganzir said there will be a Cobbler, which surprised me (though I don't know why). So that's about it.

What a great dream you had there! Let's hope that things go according to it.
...though Aganzir could toss a few special secret unique roles into her game. |

I had some weird BD dreams.
In the first there was a huge medieval castle. There was some sort of ball arranged there and I guess Rikae was the hostess. She had a new avvie which was some wolf-like animal, only smaller and had bigger eyes. The avvie was a short video clip of the animal looking around and it was really scary. Outside the castle, there was a big field or plain, where many knights fought. Boro was having the upper hand. He was a huge mad (sorry, Boro ) knight looking like a bit like Sean Bean. There was also someone called Sir Anguirel, but his name was all that was said of him. Then I was also on the field and I had to knight two young squires. They were to become Sir Rune and Sir Dane. I wondered which barrowdowners they could be. "Sir Rune could be Rune Son of Bjarne... but Sir Dane? As far as I know Rune's the only Dane around..." I thought. Anyway, they came to me and they were identical and looked like Rune Son of Bjarne, so I decided they both must be him. In the other dream, Kath and her family came to Finland and visited Noggie's place. Volo had also been invited to have dinner with us. We (Kath and her family, me, Noggie, my sister and Volo) ate and chatted. Suddenly I realised that Kath and Volo were missing. I left the living room and I heard some weird noises from Noggie's bedroom. I entered the room. Kath and Volo were at the computer. "Hi Lommy, we're playing Colin McRae Rally", Kath said. They were playing it together with a split screen mode (Kath was having the keyboard and Volo was having a joystick). "Why are you doing that it such a difficult way? Why do you play it from that perspective, it's so difficult?" I asked. They made no reply. "What if we called Aganzir and asked her to come to say hello to us?" I asked. "A good idea, but I think we could go to visit her", Volo said. "Yep, and let's not tell her we're coming", Kath said. "Alright then", I agreed. Then I, Kath, Volo and my little sister left Noggie's place to got to Aganzir's place. On our way there, we met a middle-aged woman with a black tattoo in the face, wearing a yellow rain coat and carrying plastic bags. Volo stopped to chat with her. When we continued our way, Kath asked: "Did you know her?" "Yes, she's a friend", Volo replied. Kath looked a bit surprised. "Never mind, Kath, he knows all the freaks in the town", I said. Then we went to the metro station and the dream ended. (Some minor details: Kath looked like she looks in her photopage pic except that she was shorter. She wore jeans and a gray hoodie and she had the hood on all the time. Kath's brother's name was William. We ate pie in Noggie's place.) I have weird dreams.

For the first time in a few months I remembered one of my dreams--and in rather great detail, looking at what I've written down about it.
The only part that pertains to the Barrow-Downs specifically is that LMP was in it, as some sort of sidekick of myself and my sister (nothing like any of my real ones), who was apparently named Éowyn (though she had dark hair). Despite the book relationship, if I had a name other than my own, it was Faramir. The dream is quite long, transcribed, and I won't bother posting it here, but I'll let you know that Elempi is about four feet tall, with a funny-looking hat, and dresses in tan and yellow in a style reminiscent of lederhosen. Apparently he borrowed the fixation on monkeys from someone I know on another forum. He was also "not possessed of power/magic", but managed to survive anyway. If anyone wants to read the dream in its lengthy entirety, here's the link.

I experienced a rather interesting, okay maybe not that lovely, dream last night involving random executions taking place in different places and time throughout history. Besides the point of people either solomn, excited about some form of entertainment, celebration via religious circumstances, etc, there were random BD members in the crowd. I don't really remember how many, but I do remember that Rune, Gil, Fea appeared a few times. Besides that, I don't remember much.
Yes, I know, not too funny a dream, but peculiar that I only really was interested that BD members were in the crowd, besides the random executions taking place. ~ Ka

I had a dream that there was a ww-game and I was a wolf. My fellows were Rune and Di. We agreed to plan our nightly kill in MSN and we agreed to all log in about 10pm my time. I forgot about it and came online an hour later, but happily it was okay with Rune and Di as they had other things to do online as well. I'm not sure, but I guess I only came online when Di called me (on the phone).

That seems like a realistic dream as I always have stuff to do online and Di loves to plan evil doings.

So I won't go into detail because my dreams are always long and ridiculously complicated, but I had a dream where, after attempting to avoid being an accomplice in Keeper of Dol Goldur's car stealing exploits, I ended up on the run from the guys my fellows had tried to steal from. Not much liking the prospect of being caught by big angry men, believe me, I booked it, along with Keeper and a couple brotherly friends of his. We sprinted through the woods, down some gorges, into a creek (you know, throw them off the scent or something). They got cars, so we had motorcycles along the stream bed, right toward a cave, where--
The guys basically disappeared, and I was, more importantly, in a cave with no other than Tigerlily Gamgee. She got stuck and started to panic and then, with LMP behind me being a rather soothing presence, everything was all better and we got out of the cave, right into-- A scene that does not at all apply to any of you. El fin.

I dreamt that I was in an empty room with Mith, Brinniel, TGWBS, Lal, Davem, Kath and Hookbill.
We pretty much just stand there and look at each other for a long time, Hookbill then asks if anyone read the latest edition of The Downer. I say "yes" and everybody looks at me and start telling me that I should buy "The Smell of Reeves & Mortimer". I tried to explain that some of my friends already bought it for me, but people would not listen. |

I dreamt that I was in Israel with SpM and Kath, though we soon split up so I could go to a hospital. I remember thinking "Hookbill would like being here."Interestingly, in my dream England and Israel shared a land border, and all I had to do to get in was jump over a small fence.

In the vein of boring dreams, last night I dreamt Anguirel and I were somewhere in Oxford. There was a very small, square and bushy garden called the Jane Austen garden which Ang went into. I didn't follow, not being an Austen fan.

I had a good one last night. In part of it, tgwbs was hosting a big fancy picnic with the food in wicker baskets and checked tablecloths on the ground and everything. There was Rune, Lommy, Hookbill, Nogrod, Mithalwen, narfforc and davem there at least. Rune was jumping around drinking Tuborg lager (can you still get that?) and singing Abba songs. Then SpM came along and insisted we put everything away - he was really annoyed because we were ignoring the potatoes that needed picking! He was getting all tearful about his taters!

Of course you can still get Tuborg, it is more popular than Carlsberg with the youth of Denmark (and Norway). They however merged so I suppose they are indifferent about it.
They just re-released Red Tuborg so I am happy for the time being. (the standard lager is known as Green Tuborg) me singing ABBA songs. . .I might do that, I once listened to a lot of ABBA. |

I dreamt that I went into WHSmith to ask for a job. There was an old woman behind the desk who said "Ah, I've been expecting you." Apparently, Lalaith had told her to give me a job on the phone earlier. She asked if I knew Lal, and I replied that I did, that we were on a forum together, but we spoke very rarely as there were so many members, although we might send out a PM to one another on very rare occasions. By the time I'd said all this, there was a long queue behind me. I can't remember what happened next...
If anybody would like to recommend any employer to employ me, please go right ahead. |

Had a dream, a part of it had something to do with WW or some depate in it, it was actually very contradicting to what the real situation was, though I can't remember a thing in what way it contradicted, and what.
Another, the bigger, part of the dream was... surprise surprise! Kath coming once again into Finland. She was going to go to some smaller town in Finland, but would stay in Helsinki for a day (Gah, wrote "Day" again...). We went to some museum which was actually in the railwaystation building. It was full of all kinds of medieval stuff. Then we walked in the forest near my house and there Kath reminded me that she wished to see Lommy. I called her and found out that she didn't even know that Kath was in Finland, though Lommy didn't sound surprised in the least but a bit frustrated. Lommy asked how long Kath would stay, and when I told her that Kath would be leaving already the next day, she told that she'd come by to say hello later in the evening. Well, Lommy didn't come after all. Funny that this time Kath had short hair. |

Two nights ago I had a dream about Lalwende and Davem - except they were living in a Sims house I guess, because in my dream I kept telling Lal to plant strawberries, but she wanted to plant tomatoes and peppers.
They had a huge argument about a greenhouse for their produce, and then I thought "Wait - this is the Sims. I can just cheat their finances up so they can afford one." And so I did.

Last night I dreamt that I was watching gymnastics on TV with Rikae and Macalaure. There were incredibly difficult algebraic equations flashing across the bottom of the screen, and these were the scores for the gymnists. Rikae thought it was all very exciting, but Mac was unimpressed. Then the cat woke me up.
