that's why you gotta write them down in those first two minutes!

Man, I really needed that Touhou dream. I really needed that story of growing closer to someone. I really needed to write it out. Ahhh, it feels great! I feel like I could write about this sort of thing again. It was able to unfold in my head without the constant perfectionist holdups, and it was able to touch my heart.

So, I was at my grandma's place with my best friend, and we were sitting in my grandma's office, where I normally crash when I'm there (cause I have this really weird phobia of the waterbugs down in the basement where the guest room is.) Anyways, we're sitting there, watching tv or something, then we stand up and I hit him, and it leaves a quarter sized hole in his chest, which didn't bleed, it just pusses and stuff. It left a hole in his shirt, so he put on a different shirt so his mom and my grandma don't see it, and he was ok with it. His mom and my grandma come to the door and are all like, "Whaat happened?" And he's like, "Uhh, nothing? Why?" And then I woke up.

I don't normally remember dreams. The plus side is I've only had one nightmare that I remember, but a few times. It's when I realize a different person that's really close to me is dead. I don't remember when I last had it, but it's not very often.

Ho hum~

So, I had a dream that Giygas was the final boss of an EO game...

Oh, God... If Giygas... NO. My party would be utterly traumatized even moreso than they already are.

I had a dream these teenaged girls moved in with me and my dad (don't know where mom was). One looked like Kiri Komori. The other looked like Kuroko Shirai. Apparently they were some breed of human that could travel through mirrors. One time I saw the shorter girl speaking into a mirror, and when I asked her about it, she jumped and said she was just on Skype.

Anyway, I tried to become friends with them, and gradually got closer. We went to an anime convention and stuff. I thought about trying to get with one of them, until I saw that they were more into each other. They would talk to each other through mirrors in their bedrooms, and would apparently both climb into the mirrors and make out in their mirror-world beds where nobody would ever see them.

I think one of them ended up having a penis. Pretty sure it was Kuroko.

Anyway. The focus then switched to the leader of their people, in London, who had lived for centuries but had the appearance of a young woman. She had apparently been kept alive by a golden ring on her finger that had the words "SO THAT I MAY LIVE" carved into it. It not only kept her from aging, but gave her extraordinary luck. She was referred to as High Mother, for all with her powers counted her among their ancestors. Her children sailed to all the continents in the world to establish themselves, and melted into the societies.

One day, she was driving a dear friend of hers across the countryside. It was raining. On a winding cliff road, she turned the wheel too sharply, and they spun out over the edge. She woke up, unharmed, but the car was totaled, and her friend was impaled on a tree branch, dead. She went home, overcome with guilt at her own survival, and vowed to cast away the ring.

On the same day, the two girls in my house confessed their love to each other, and told me about it, and about their powers. They stepped into a tall mirror, and looked at each other, and kissed

In the British countryside, the High Mother stood over a deep, slimy pool in a swamp not marked on any map. She knew that if she threw the ring into the pool, it may be forever lost to the world. What she didn't know was that the ring itself was the source of her powers, as well as the powers of all her people, and could itself travel through the mirror world. So when she pulled it off and dropped it into the pool, it did not fall through the water, but through the REFLECTION on the water. In the mirror world, it landed on a tree root coming out of the ground near the pond.

The words "SO THAT I MAY LIVE" suddenly glowed. The root shifted, and oh, it wasn't a root, it was the arm of a demon thing, buried underground. The arm shifted and exposed a bony hand, which gripped the ring tightly. Soon, the whole forest was alive with long-extinct mirror monsters.

The High Mother saw the beasts coming to life through the reflection of the water. She tried to dive in and retrieve the ring before it was too late, but her powers were gone. And then, her centuries of age came upon her, and she shriveled into bones.

Back in my house, the two girls were embracing each other in the reflection of my living room when some of the demons broke into my house. We all screamed and the girls tried to jump back through the mirror. But their powers were gone. They were trapped. I watched as they were consumed.

Once every person trapped in the mirror world was consumed, the monsters returned to the dirt and slept. It was as if neither the demons nor the people had ever existed.
