The Only Real Estel's comments on the Reputations thread reminded me of a dream I had the other night. I dreamt that I received an unsigned reputation (a positive one) but it was so nonsensical that I wanted to PM the sender to ask what it meant. Because it wasn't signed I spent the whole dream going through the members list and PMing people to ask if they had sent it, but everyones inboxes were full so I couldn't get through! Then suddenly everyone cleared their inbox all at once and I got about a hundred messages (somehow mine did not become full) and they all wanted to claim this rep. I have no idea who it actually belonged to in the end but I felt so exhausted when I woke up because in the dream I was physically running around the Downs from thread to thread. It was a bit odd.

I had a dream a few nights ago that my sister (Oro) and I were sitting at a table in this sort of tavern thing and Dominic Monaghan was sitting at the table next to us and he was wearing this blue shirt with potatoes somehow sewn inside it. He then walked out into this hallway, and we heard someone announce that they were going to play a song ( I can't remember its name, although I know it had the word "Faerie" in it) that was somehow dedicated to Scotland and we were sad that Dominic Monaghan would have to miss it. So we walked over to this place in the room where there was a raised dance floor and a guy with some sort of stringed instrument that you pluck who was singing the song, the lyrics of which somehow involved the Quiz Room and LotR. From that point, our converation went something like this:
"Hey that must be Eomer!" "Do we know of any other Scottish B-Ders?" "He looks a lot like Denethor." I also remember there was this one string on his instrument which had the same color as the links here, and that I knew that this was a "link string," and that if the string was plucked, it would take us somewhere. The string, however, was not plucked. I unfortunately don't remember any thing more than that.

I dreamt that I received a PM (I forget who from, possibly Oromin) and it turned into a rep when I clicked on it! It said something like "Very nice knowing you, but I'm leaving forever."
I have a vague feeling Gil-Galad was somewhere in my mind too last night. |

I had a dream last night about Feanor. She was in my old high school just drawing pictures of the Loony Tunes and at one point she drew the Roadrunner choking Wile E Coyote. She looked over at me and said "I'm so sick of that coyote chasing the Roadrunner." There was more to the dream, but no more involving Feanor.

Last night I dreamt that Ka called me on the phone and we were talking about the new Harry Potter book. That'll teach me to stay up late reading.

I had a dream that put members of the Downs in Harry Potter. Like, Ka was Luna Lovegood, Gil was Harry, Enca was Hermione someone was Ron but I dont remember for sure who, there were many more but I can't remember the details. All I know is that it was weird.

 Not quite a dream, but it goes with the idea of the Downs seeping into aspects of RL: as I was reading HP, I accidentally read "Luna" as "Lhuna"... although I know our dear Hauntress of the Havens is hardly like the character. |

Enca Dream
Well, I'd been watching Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets the night before and...
Encaitare was standing in a puddle of water next to Mrs Norris, who was hung up on a wall. I can't remember what she said or did, but she was taller, thinner, younger and less wrinkled than I used to imagine her, so we're getting there slowly, Enca... |

I actually ended up having two Barrow Downs dreams last night.
In the first dream I was on the Hindenburg blimp and Mormegil was the pilot. And I begged to be let off, but morm just laughed at me. In my second dream Gil-Galad kept showing up in the latest werewolf and was voting for random people. First he voted for morm, then the Barrow Wight, then I think someone that doesn't even exist on the Barrow Downs.

My Barrowdowns Dreams.
I had a weird dream last night. I proposed to marriage to symestreem . . . in German.
She said nein. No, you didn't! You spent half the night wondering what was the relationship between the words ("patient" and "spider") that was used to describe Denethor in Siege of Gondor. Besides, you can't have dreams. That's why we're here. We're the conversational equivalent of a dream. Right.

I dreamt that I was discussing books and Harry Potter with Feanor of the Peredhil. Probably because I've been meaning to PM her about the subject because I noticed we have similar taste in books, and I'm compiling a list of stuff to read. She looked like her regular self.
This brings me up to: Anguirel Barrow Wight Beren87 dancing spawn of ungoliant davem Encaitare Eomer of the Rohirrim Feanor of the Peredhil Gil-Galad Holbytlass Lalwende Orominuialwen EDIT: Enough for a game of Werewolf, actually... |

I remember dreaming that I went to the Barrow Downs (from the Book) and there found a number of (This web site) Downers. They were all discussing tom Bombadill, until The Barrow Wight came and told every one that eh had caught tom and had dissected him to try and find out who he was.

I couldn't tell about this dream 'til now, so here goes:
I dreamed that in Game VII of Werewolf, I was the Guardian. (I had received my role by then.) Nilp somehow knew this and was screaming it at me for the benefit of all the villagers. Then I log on the next morning and Nilp has my Guardian avatar.

Do not underestimate the Sharingan.
OK, I'm sure no one understood that.
Seriously, Oddie-poo, I was just using it to tease Kath. I never thought you'd dream of me . . . now, I'm really touched (is there no heart smiley?)

Hmm...and last night I dreamed that Elf-Warrior posted in the Introductions thread, and said he was sorry but he was going off to medical school and had to give the Downs up as soon as Werewolf VII was over. We all wished him farewell of course.

Hey!
Hi, Oddie's alter-ego! Welcome to the Downs!
Are you gonna give it a name, or will you kill it now? You can kill alter-egos? Just the newly developed ones. You just ingest huge amounts of antidepressants, or have a Nazgûl stab you with a Morgul-blade. Although I'd prefer the first way.

Garn...
Drat...I *had* a dream this morning, I know it had something to do with Werewolf and EotR, but now all I can remember is getting three identical reps for something else. And I can remember them word for word.

A short description of TGWBS's sleep patterns
I typically go to sleep between the hours of 10pm and midnight. I am woken at about 6-7 by my parents noisily leaving to go to work. I then fall back to sleep and wake up at about 10. Anyway, because of this, I get to remember two sets of dreams. However, because of falling asleep in between them, I only remember the first set vaguely. A lot of the shorter dreams are from when I get woken at 7, and are thus only half remembered. A dream about Eomer of the Rohirrim I flew on a broom (too much HP? I haven't even read any for days...) to a huge shopping centre shaped like a cathedral. It was made of red (painted) steel and glass, mostly glass. Eomer owned it and was happily there, in the form of Snoopy, in the middle. The glass hadn't actually been put into the building yet, so it was just the steel infrastructure that was actually up. What this means I have no idea. Perhaps I think Eomer should improve his grip on finances? Last edited by the guy who be short; 08-03-2005 at 12:12 PM. |

Improve my grip on finances? I could have told you that.
I remember studying dreams a couple of years ago. Well, I use the word 'studying' but I really mean staring blankly in lectures. Anyway, I know what you mean by the separate segments of sleep guy. Also, is it true that you're more likely to have Barrowdowns dreams if you've been browsing the site for hours before sleep? I know that I tend to dream about the Downs during my periods of obsession. However, I never really have dreams about doors and I encounter many doors each day. What's all that about?

I had a dream about the latest werewolf game. The only thing was everyone was a stick figure. And me being the wolf I am was going around impaling everyone's stick figure heads on spears. And the last person I left alive was TGWBS.
I might have found it disturbing if it didn't involve stick figures.

I had a dream last night. It was... odd. Very short, and very little to do with anything going on in my life that I can think of.
I was walking through my old high school and saw a notice board. On it was a list of names of famous people who would be visiting "next Monday". On it were a few names that I can't for the life of me remember, but the second on the list was Bethberry. I remember thinking in my dream "Whoa! How'd my school learn about Bethberry?!? That's crazy." Then I woke up. The end. PS: Beth's name actually had the little ê in it! My dreams have better use of alt codes that my waking life does.

I experience a creepy dream about breakfast last night... Seriously! Breakfast foods were involved!
Anyways, I'm in some 'community'-like kitchen and walking around looking at the lovely tile, then out of no where I look up and someone from the downs (they have blonde hair... That's all i remember, so don't get your hopes up at a name) is cooking. Before I can sneek out, they wip around with a plate of something and give it to me. They start spouting off something like: " You should eat it, it's really good. I found some eggs in the back of the fridge and other things to make it with. See? There was only three pieces of spinach, and two pieces of bacon in it." I look at them for a minute in disbelief, ask if they have ever actually eaten any of it. Oh course, they haven't, so i'm left with them looking at me trying to make me eat it. The eggs looked somewhat greenish and there's this odor stuff coming off of it, so I say 'no thank you, maybe another time'. All I can remember from that point was that they were slightly angry and they walked out of the kitchen. That's it. ~Aesthete

The Firefootean Nightmare
I can't figure out why I didn't post this earlier - I dreamt it more than a week ago - but it was scary. I think it would make a good horror film.
Well, Firefoot was the leader of an evil pack of werewolves who inhabited a parallel universe. She opened a portal into ours, and suddenly, the entire planet was being bitten in the night. I remember watching a news report about how the werewolf epidemic was worst in Africa - in Eritrea the werewolf population had reached 40%. Anyway, basically, the world was under siege from Firefoot and her band of evil werewolves from the next universe along. There was a lot more to the dream - I was trying to stop Firefoot somehow - but as I've left it so late, I've forgotten all that. Sorry. I've also completely forgotten how Firefoot looked - furry, most likely.Oh, and mormegil, you haven't been forgotten. I dreamt you were writing loads of huge essays full of complex interpretations of Tolkien in a new sub-forum devoted to your essays. That brings me up to 14 people. Try and beat that! I could host a dream-party... |

3 dreams
I saw these dreams quite a while ago but I just recently recalled them.
My first dream was about the 2nd werewolf game. I was walking in a medieval town - the buildings were from 19th century but it was a medieval town, nonetheless. To add the proper feeling I saw my whole dream in differen shades of sepia. I remembered that I was supposed to phone phantom so we could discuss who we would like to kill during the night. When I called him (with a cell phone that worked with coins...) his voice was really high-pitched and it sounded like a voice of a six-year-old girl. Now, I can put up with lots of oddities in my dreams but I just couldn't imagine phantom with such voice. I decided that it must be his little sister who answered the phone. Suddenly I was watching the dream like from a screen that was divided in two. In the right half I was making a phone call and in the left half there was phantom's little sister who wanted to babble about something I can't remember. I guess she would have talked for ages but that's when my coins and dream ended. My second dream was about WW7. A person called Esgallhunardawen sent me e-mail and asked my opinion of the wolves' identities. Suddenly my mail box was swarming with Downers' names that bounced around the page and I was supposed to spot the wolves from the chaos of names. Thirdly, Fea wanted to make a short film as some school project and she recruited half of the members of the Downs to act in it. We stood confused in some huge warehouse and didn't have a clue what was about to happen or what the film's plot was. Just when something exciting would have happened, the dream ended. Quote:
