A Lot Of My Vivid Dreams Are Little Nightmares-based - Tumblr Posts

A Little Nightmare I had...

This is a recall of a dream I had last summer (2022) I believe? There are gaps in my memory, practically because of the one-year gap, but also because I do not recall the section of the dream at all. I'll tell you about it regardless.

The dream starts off with the nightmare kids (Six, Mono, Runaway, Raincoat) who are trying to escape a dark, lightless city filled with shadow monsters. There was also this... grandma(?), similar to The Lady/Geisha, who kept chasing us, trying to capture us. While we were being chased, we came across a dock and got into one of the boats. Runaway and Raincoat started the boat up while me and Mono kept look out. We escape into the waters, but the grandma follows us into the water. While we fled, a monster, what I recall being a giant baby/doll with an animal face, emerges from the water and tries to eat us, before getting injured or something, and crashing onto The Grandma. The two get into a fight and we escape deeper into the black water.

Then there was a big gap in my memory

After the gap was another section of the dream. It took place in a forest-area, similar to the beginning of the second LN game. There was this event going on where the townspeople of the woods would gather about in a clearing to... hang clothing??? This was just done out in the middle of nowhere and some people had guns for some reason. For whatever reason, we tried to cross the field. We had to sneak under each bit of clothing while it was up on the clotheslines- we were just not allowed to pass if the clothing was in front of our face. While in the process, one of us stepped on the clothing by accident, and a gunshot sounded. Shortly afterwards, the gunmen started to shoot at us.

While dodging the bullets and pushing past the clothing, we got to the end of the field where there's just this... dirt-mound piled up to look like a anthill, but with children-sized holes, perfect for us to slip through and possibly fall underground. We quickly enter the little holes slid into a new section. I remember it being really weird because the tunnel rounded back to the start I think, and there were these huge, ugly hands that kept trying to grab us. I remember Mono (or Runaway), who went in first, literally stop his sliding to prevent us from sliding straight into the hands of the gunmen.

We did eventually get caught and then we were knocked out. Later, I remember waking up in a cell. Looking out from the bars I could see the rest of the room. The room we were in was like an office, but underground. Clearly underground. Half the walls were stone and the rest were smooth, ugly-stained marble walls. On said marble walls were framed pictures of pinned insects like dragonflies and butterflies. On the wall to my right was this large steel door, and beside that door was a desk that was parallel to our cell. I remember there being a black-"leather" sofa-chair behind the desk. I don't know why I remember that but whatever I guess. On the desk sat piles of papers on it and a big birdcage, a bird cage that contained Mono, if I remember correctly. He didn't have his mask on which was strange because (in the context of the dream) he had a really big issue with his face, he just hated it and absolutely could not stand just having his face out and about.

Apparently, our captors, who were-- I kid you not-- dressed in nun-like clothing (this was far before TSON so that was... weird-- explains why I got mass amounts of deja vu), were trying to... do something to us? But since Mono woke up first and had ooga booga magic, he made a compromise with our captors. Apparently, he promised to be their little lab rat, do everything they told him to do, so they could conduct tests on him. He was literally forced to stay in his own little hell just so we wouldn't get hurt or something of the sorts.

I (Six) woke up when the captors were "talking" to/threatening Mono. After the captors left, they left via the steel door. It clicked shut and there was a electric-sound I guess? Like... the beep of a smart lock or something, idk. Mono, despite the threat being gone, did not talk a lot, which is unusual to me. I kinda put two and two together and asked Mono if he was alright.

Six: "Hey... Mono, are you alright?" Mono: "Huh? Oh... yeah." Six: "...You sure? It doesn't sound like it..." Mono: silence Six: "You don't have to do any of that. We can get out of here soon, it'll be okay." Mono: "No, no, it's fine. I'll be okay. Everything will be fine."

He smiled really awkwardly at me, turned away quickly, and I woke up shortly after that.

My brain was fr really goofy back then. I had vivid-ish dreams quite often. They've disappeared ever since school started so... that's great... (this isn't the first time this happened. I had vivid dreams when I was younger, there was a 4-year gap where I didn't dream. It was because school was taking up more of my life. I think the same thing is happening again so weee ✨✨✨)

Aight. That's all I have to say. Goodbye o/
