;_; brrr.

I had a v. disturbing dream today. And to think I was all "I wish i could remember my dreams" because I always, always forget them. MAYBE THERE'S A GOOD REASON. DDD: Thank you, brain, for protecting me from the rest of them.



It starts with a girl bundled up in a big coat, coughing at the end of a train. She's curled up on herself, and doesn't look very healthy. And then she lifts her head, and gets up suddenly, and then she starts moving up the train.

She's coughing harder and harder, and she's looking more and more determined, eyes narrowed, jaws clenched and all that. She shoulders people out of her way, stumbles, gets progressively worse -- she even catches herself on walls and people. Doesn't apologize.

And then she arrives at the front of the train just as the train stops at a station. She gets out, forces her way through the crowd -- gets kinda far, too, and then the train leaves, she she coughs a last time and BLARGH. BLOOD. Blood everywhere, by every orifice, because her organs are LIQUEFYING.

People start screaming, of course.

Meanwhile at the end of the train where she was sitting, a young man in a leather jacket starts coughing.


...The worst thing is that I think she knew, and she deliberately moved forward to get as many people as she could. I'm not sure if it was her own will to kill as many people with her as she could, or a virus-given imperative, or both or what, but she knew what she was doing. And that feeling of -- brr. Spreading death because they dared to be alive and she already knew she wasn't...

Strangely, I have a very strong feeling it isn't the first time I have this dream.

XDD ♥ *pets*

My more disturbing dreams usually involve me getting killed, or being the cause of someone special to me's death. ...I prefer not to remember those, but those tend to stay in my mind longest, and most clearly.

.................although your dream is really creepy...it sounds like a drabblething.

[sarolynne.livejournal.com]

I actually remember a lot of my dreams, and many of them are very, very weird. Or creepy. Or should be creepy, but aren't. (Whenever I'm stressed, I dream about zombies. Zombies everywhere, and I'm the only one who seems to see the problem, and no one listens to me.) But they're not normally that...hm. Gruesome is the wrong word. But they're not that deliberate, I think. They're the kind of thing that stops seeming believable when you wake up.

*petpets*

o.o wow. *cuddleloves*

*curls up on* T_T

*snuggles*

Next time I'll have to make sure you go to sleep happy? ;)

[animeprincess.livejournal.com]

My advice? try to have a small pillow-thing stuffed with nice smelling herbs, like sage or mint. sniff it when you wake up from a bad dream and it should go away.

The smell of lavender helps people sleep better, try that.

[askerian]

*pets* i'm not much of a scent person. XD;;;

;__; chouji ♥

T___T Ack, that's horrible *shudders* I hate dreams like that (eerie/creepy) especially since if you try to go back to sleep right away they tend to try and continue where they started *huggles* Luckily they're usually aren't often/are once every 100233 ages

[askerian]

yeah. ;__; thanks love.

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

It would make a good short story, tho.

[askerian]

you can write it. :D (besides I'm pretty sure it's been done before. and done and done and done. It's rather cliche, really XD;;)

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

Hmm well I was thinking about it earlier, and the only story that came to mind was actually a rather well done one where a single dying soldier managed to infect a good battallion of the enemy forces with a virulent plague.

Tiens, ça me rappelle un plot bunny GW que j'ai jamais eu le courage de développer parce que ça m'aurait embarquée dans une fic de plus de 50 pages...

[spacefragments.livejournal.com]

sounds like something from a horror movie. :/

[askerian]

Yeah. I don't even watch horror movies AND THERE IS A REASON. ;___; *clings*

[jaklover.livejournal.com]

That is disturbing! o_O

"And darkness, and decay, and the Red Death held illimitable dominion over all."

...I think the 'recurring dream' part of that is the scariest.

Ja, -n

[book-people.livejournal.com]

Yikes! I hate weird dreams like that! Maybe writing it down will help you not have it again or something?
That, and a warm drink, whatever time it is be damned. Tea or hot chocolate, preferably. *nods seriously*
Hope you have better dreams in future! *hug*

It's okay, i'm good now. XD It just bugged me for a little while.

*threadhijaking liek woah*

Your icon is complete and total win. Is it, by any chance, the sharing kind? And even if it isn't, would you mind if I friended you? Cause you seem cool.
*/end threadhijacking*

Ironically? I find warm milk prevents nightmares from continuing or spawning new ones when you go back to sleep. (though it might just be the time it takes to make...Milk is good though, so.)

[book-people.livejournal.com]

*grin* I liked that one too when I found it. I'm pretty sure it was of the "take and credit" variety, so feel free.

As to friending, absolutely! Be warned, I'm not so good with the regular updating, though... ^_^;

*grins* I agree. Milk is good, so any chance to drink it is a good one. Unless it's a choice between milk or chocolate, because chocolate will always win. *nods seriously*

[arinan.livejournal.com]

Hmm, warm milk. Do you know if it has to be cow milk? I think I've heard of this, but I can't remember why it works.

Anything that got rid of reoccurring nightmares would be awesome, but I'm lactose intolerant, and while being up sick half the night would prevent nightmares, unsurprisingly I'm not willing to make the trade off.

[mitsuhachi.livejournal.com]

...I don't really know? I always just assumed it was a comfort thing, and also y'know, the time it takes to get up and pour it out and warm it up and all that did the trick rather than like... chemicals. So I don't see any reason why like soy milk or something wouldn't be fine. You could try it anyway.

[crazy-toffee.livejournal.com]

I have creepy recurring dreams too. Yours ranks way up in the yaaaargh-list, though. *snugs* I can see why it would still bug you for a while. T_T I hope I have forgotten this concept by the time I have to go to sleep myself. *whines*

Actually...

[(Anonymous)]

...that DOES sound a lot like the Ebola virus, which has emerged sporadically over the past decade or so in places in Africa. o.O Its main symptom is severe bleeding from the orifices, just like in your dream--the virus breaks down the body's tissue, so that the insides of your intestines literally begin to slough off and crap. Really, REALLY frickin' creepy, especially since it has like a 90-95% kill rate (which is INSANE for a disease of any sort), and still has no known cures/vaccines.

If your interested, Richard Preston's "The Hot Zone" could tell you more about it. :-P

Ugh...

I know that Jo and I were have a conversation recently where I was telling her that I rarely remember my dreams. Some of the ones that I do are pretty mundane, but some of the more vivid are also disturbing in a vague sexual, if not outright sexual, way. I wonder, like you, if not remembering them is something of a psychological defense mechanism. I know that one of the dreams I had that I do remember was being on a ferry that had been taken over by terrorists, and having to lead the fight against the terrorists while they were planting explosives all over the boat in an attempt to blow it in half. And I'm one of the few Americans who refuses to let terrorism be used to scare me into submission to the government's will.

*hugs* Sorry to hear about the nightmare. I hope that these things aren't too frequent for you.

[bakkhos.livejournal.com]

Wow, that gave me the shivers. And that's coming from a girl who has nightmares all the time.

[ellenel13.livejournal.com]

Reminds me of Edgard Allan Poe's "The Red Death."

[arinan.livejournal.com]

Eek, ok that wins for creepy dream of the night. Although I think what's so disturbing about it is the evil intent, and the fact it might be a repeat dream, not blood and dying people.

I might just be strange about that though. My nightmares seem to involve things like failing AP English (a college level highschool class, while dreams of people hunting me down to kill me aren't scary at all.

That's pretty damn creepy. Your very own subconscious Typhoid Mary.
