Generic Post-Apoc MC start, but with magic!

Dreamed on 2017.04.19.0706 Family of 4-5 on the third floor of an apartment building. Family is arguing/debating something about food. Girl goes down a floor via the stairwell and is standing near a broken window when she overhears a LARGE group – an army, really – approaching from outside. The leader of it gives his quick commands to the rest while they clean and prepare their semi-automatic guns. “Either they die or they become cattle,” he says. The army breaks into the ground floor. The girl wants to warn her family, but then what? They could do nothing about this. She feels paralyzed. She considers hiding, but ultimately decides to just get caught quickly and obviously so she doesn’t get shot. She sits right where she was already, in the corner of a landing at the stairwell, in the light of the window, and puts both hands in the air and waits. As the army files through, no one sees her. She starts to yell, “Hey! I’m here. I surrender!” and still they all run right past her, i...

Storm is picking up outside

Dreamed on 2017.02.24.0545 some commotion about a bird atop the tree. i rush into the room but am too late. crazy fancy mansion that we are moving into to share. on a balcony above the tree i notice a giant vulture face atop a clearly mechanical human sized body. It looks at me storm is picking up outside. like... I see someone blow away. Everyone else wants to watch a show that's starting, and they keep asking me to come back in and sit down, but I go to the hall and hold open a side door for what turns out to be about thirty strangers and a person or two from my old high school. One old peer is surprised to see me, inquires about whose place this is, being so fancy, and I know it's part mine now, but otherwise I forget. It's owned by the parents of someone else we knew in highschool, but I forget who. I ask the Lady/Matriarch of the house, and she says it's totally fine I brought them in. Downstairs is probably best, just stay out of room 126 because her husban...

Buttercream Dog Shell

Dreamed on 2017.02.25.0810 Looking into the plastic packaging, I see that the egg I have (about 2x1.5 feet) is starting to look kinda dried and is browning on the edges. "No! Am I too late?" I turn my eyes to Rachel who says, "No, just bury it in the sand quick. It's probably ready to go right now." So I do. It starts to wriggle a little bit, then cracks open. The whole egg is soft like a hard boiled egg, by the way -- no shell. I help pry the crack open and pull some of the egg away, and a frail looking schnauzer with peppered legs and body but a curly back the color of buttercream eagerly emerges, eyes wide and tongue licking. She sits down and clearly has very weak back legs and no full instinct how to use them. She looks about inquisitively. "Here Bee! Here! ... Wait, Bee's our other dog. We need a new name! Um... Here dog!" and she eventually figures out how to put legs beneath her and wobble enthusiastically toward us.

Vampire Coming of Age

Dreamed on 2017.02.19.0547 Picnicking outside with several friends -- well, its actually a much larger evening party, but several of us are sitting out at a table. I feel like I was teaching something, but I forget what. This is interrupted when the large Italian family across the street empties out of their house. I've always thought they were vampires, but this time their fangs are rather obvious. I hiss "vampires" quietly but loudly to my neighbors. NO WAY the vampires are going to do anything, when it's not even fully dark out, right? Quicker than I expect and before I can do anything about it, they've got us surrounded on one side with the house blocking the other side. One small path for escape, but no way they can outrun us. The vampires talk amongst themselves, then three young kids -- maybe sixth graders - come forward. Hesitantly. This is a ritual of their I've heard about -- the first killing. Each of the three throws a sharp throwing dagger...

"yoy drop dowj this part carefflly"

Dreamed on 2017.02.03.0647 "Oh yeah! I forgot that they'd had to drain the swamp." he said as we foated down the Louisiana river 100 hunddred years in the past, "This is a lot of water" "Wait til you see the falls -- they used to be way more deadly" I guide the craft to rock and we manage to stop as water roars all around us. "Okay,. yoy drop dowj this part carefflly, then swim a bitm then.... okaym wgere yiu go down this drop matters. There are some deep parts adn somne shallow parts and that's where people die. We float in the air for a while, then land, and then watch some people behind us swimj casually down the whole thing and I feekl stranbge about how dangerous I thiought it was.. Then we float through a painting and end of on a frozen lake. We meet my brother in law and his scnauzer and give the dog the bison we'd hunted. He's a happy mini scnauzer.

I suppose that's fair.

Dreamed on 2017.02.06 We hired personal trainers to get us in shape, but they just stole our cars for two weeks and charged us for the time we spent walking.

Owl Shapeshifter

Dreamed on 2017.01.17.0936 Walked for several days to get to the new apartment I'll be living in while going to school. Rachel walked with me. Along the way, I met a talking ermine who accompanied us on the journey and became a very close friend. Upon arriving, I invited him to move in with us, but he apologized and said he had a wife and kids he had to get back to. I invited them all to move in with us, but I had to go inside and move in now and he had to go back to them, and once I went through the door we wouldn't have contact again. We made a plan hoping to meet up outside at the bench at some point, but with no guarantee that it would happen. Later, sleeping in a terrible half-destroyed cabin with a collection of other students. Staying quiet in the night so we don't get in trouble. At length and after some suspicion, snuck down into a basement. Attacked by black birds; turned into an owl to fight back and killed them. Collected the feathers. Resumed normal shape. ...
