    Under extreme circumstances too. A place you have never seen, while your running is slower than your real life walking, your punches barely do anything, and If you fall from your height, then it’s game over. Also color? what’s that?

      If you want to “fix” those dreams. Just check your back pocket, you’ll likely find whatever weapon would most deal with the “problem” behind you.

      You can run or punch, because the body’s motion is being suppressed. You are fine to operate guns or heavy ordnance (up too as past an anime grade mecha suit. And yes, in a dream world, it will fit in your back pocket or other hammerspace equivalent!)

        I often can “will” myself telekinetic powers, but only if I’ve noticed it’s a dream, which means I will quickly wake up.

        Dream monsters too pussy to fight me with powers.

          I love when I realize I can float. Like, not fly high in the sky. But I can just kinda… float around. Above people a little. It happens every few dreams, which is like once or twice a month. I don’t dream often. Or use cannabis very often. But this drink only has 5mg and I feel very

          Lucid dreams lie right on the boundary between awake and a normal dream. It’s very easy to either wake, or fall back into a non lucid state. Best bet is not to try and change too much, unless you want to wake up. A few nudges, and relax and let it roll onwards (for normal dreams, not nightmares).

        That’s if I even realize that it’s a dream. I rarely get dreams, and when it happens I just cannot tell, no matter how wacky it gets.

        The one time it happened, I just decided to walk into a mirror that wasn’t showing anything.

          I use dream checks. In dreams, you generally act on day to day habits. I personally check my back pocket for a AK47 randomly (no I never find one, but that’s not the point!). When I have a nightmare, that artificial “habit” kicks in and I check. Low and behold, I’m now armed. I’m also now aware that my “dream check” just triggered. This often raises me to a lucid dream. From there I can either overload the dream, and so wake up, or roll with it. Balancing lucidity with not waking is a minor art. It slowly comes with practice.
