This Makes No Sense!

Dream #11

Date:  November 22, 2012  5:30ish AM
Characters:  Petra, Lucy, Jimmy, K, Claud, a parent
Scenes:  2

Scene 1:

The cheer team was doing a stunt; Em was the flyer for this one. K and Jimmy were here bases, but they were missing someone to back-spot. They still tried to barrel roll, so of course Em ended up on the floor, flat on her back.

Scene 2:

School had let out, and Em and Petra hung around after the carpool left-overs went inside. That's when a young girl, perhaps a second grader, walked over. She wanted to try to fly a barrel roll, so they let her; actually, she was a decent flyer.

A parent approached Petra and Em, which was bizarre. It turned out they weren't in trouble; instead the parent told Em and Petra to go capture a witch flying around scaring people. The tasked was actually easy, and their friend Claud was the alleged witch. She agreed to cease scaring everyone, all in good fun.

Let's Go Boating

Dream #10

Date:  November 7, 2012  4:10 AM (ish)
Characters:  Kris, Zoe, Eli, Petra
Scenes:  2

Scene 1:

The air was warm, and the sky was clear. So no wonder Petra and her friends - Zoe, Elizabeth, and Kris went for a boat ride. Elizabeth and Kris paired up while Petra and Zoe ended up with a kid named Axle, who happened to be the rudest kid ever to walk the planet. While the crews were enjoying the waves, Petra thought it'd be a grand idea to create a spray with her foot, effectively smothering Kris and Eli in water. They weren't particularly jovial about the event, but allowed Zoe and Petra to have the laugh nonetheless.

Everyone took a break on the water and ate cookies as a snack. After the friends had their fill they were off again for a final grapple off-land.

Scene 2:

Zoe drove the last part of the fun and back to the dock. Petra had a nice conversation with the boy who was driving previously. She learned Axel had refused the cookies because he only ate "organic carob cookies", whatever that meant. Everyone arrived back at the dock and parted ways; a fun afternoon had successfully been experienced.

Let's Dance!

Dream #9

Date:  June 28, 2012  7:00 AM (ish)
Characters: Leah, Petra
Scenes:  3

Scene 1:

The day was beautiful; the sweetness of the summer air was palpable and the gentleness of the breeze was dripping in the grass blades. Leah and Petra traveled with a tour group, each stop a new place to play. First stop, a pool large enough to accommodate everyone with room to spare. Leah plunged into the 5 foot, walking back to Petra. Leah wore a mask a grave disappointment, and Petra knew exactly why: she had wronged Leah recently; now it was time to own up. Leah demanded a wrestling match. Taken aback, Petra agreed. Since Petra's height was under the water level and Leah's was above it, Petra resorted to swim to and fro each side, but she tired and had to make a break for the chairs and tables. Rolling on her back with Leah standing overhead intending to pin her down, Petra grabbed Leah's ankle and pulled up, hard. Leah lost her balance and would have face planted if Petra hadn't pulled her back into balance. She showed Leah mercy, unable to injure her friend. Despite the rescue, they both knew the skirmish was not finished running its course.

Scene 2:

A bus ride later, the two found themselves at an open field with a complex playground nearby. Petra darted around people playing soccer on the field. Leah kept up, relieved when Petra turned to the playground. Petra shot up the platforms, through the tunnel to the high slide, but she noticed Leah had disappeared. Knowing Leah had used the shorter slide and was waiting to ambush, Petra backtracked and returned to the field. Running again to the playground, Leah was waiting to jump Petra and pin her. Petra ran around the lower platforms, using height to her advantage. She could much more easily maneuver under things. Running in circles, Leah asked Petra a question, why Petra said something earlier. Petra replied her communication often included symbolism.

Scene 3:

The match was at its close, though no one seemed to have won or lost, or even received injury. At a snack shack Leah and Petra parted ways: Leah back to her life in society, Petra to wander as a loner.
