This Came To Me In A Dream - Tumblr Posts
Had a dream last night and this is the only thing I remember from it
I will never understand my subconscious
APPARENTLY, I had lost power yesterday since from 7 in the evening up until it was 2 in the morning today…so, inspiration had struck me to make this short story of me and Cal:
The whole city had lost its power. All the towers and Skyscrapers went dark, all the street lights were off. Me and Cal were trying to find our way back to our apartment, not seeing anything since it was so dark. Holding onto his hand, he takes his lightsaber to ignite it, his blue blade illuminating our path. “Is that better?”, he mutters to me, glancing over with a small faint smile on his lips. I matched his smile as I nod. ”Yeah…come on, we’re almost there!”, I start walking ahead, tugging Cal along, feeling his grip tighten in my hand. Upon arriving to the apartment, I could see Bode was here and he was waiting outside of our apartment door, having a flashlight in hand. He noticed us approaching as his brows furrowed in worry.
“What happened?”, He asked as we got closer to him. I could only sigh, as I try to explain this situation to Bode. “The city just went poof! Off with the power…this happens all the time…for some reason…”, I could only see Bode roll his eyes. “No wonder everything got dark so quickly…”, Cal went up to Bode, placing a hand on his shoulder. “We plan on going down to the station…they have power there…you comin’?”, I see Bode nod. ”Yeah…I’ll meet you guys up there…”, Cal gives his shoulder a pat, retaking my hand in his as we tread through the dark streets again, only to see a light illuminating in the distance. “That’s the station!”, I point out, seeing Cal put up his blade. “I see it…”, As we had both came upon the station, there were a lot of people there…all complaining the same thing…the power.
The mayor of the city was there, trying his best to keep the people calm. He stands onto this tier to grab everyone’s attention. “Everyone! The city is just experiencing a malfunction…we’ll get the power up and running in just a moment…please, be patient!”, Everyone is still complaining, sighing and mumbling under their breaths. I hear Cal sigh as he looks over to me with a “something’s not right” look. Bode was able to catch up to us as we had discussed what the real issue was. “It’s their new generator they’re using for that tower…”, Bode points ahead of him as we follow his direction, seeing a tall tower in the distance illuminating. I groan under my breath. “That’s the mayor’s tower…he has backup generators…”, Bode sighs, shaking his head in disbelief. “There’s gotta be something that’s causing this outage…”, I see Cal was thinking. “I think I know where to look…follow me…”, Cal starts walking ahead as me and Bode follow him, with Bode shining a flashlight for us.
We had followed Cal to this small power plant with the gates surrounding it being locked up tight. He points to this wide shaped antenna, seeing someone had damaged it–markings covered the axis along with it being bent out of shape. “Whoever was here, they probably did it on purpose…”, I felt irritation flood inside me. “Are you serious?!”, I hear Bode chuckle, gently nudging my arm. “Hey, it could be worse…do you think you can fix it Cal?”, Cal is standing there, running finger through his small beard. “I think so…but BD is back on the ship…and Merrin’s not here…”, I look behind me, barely getting a glimpse of our ship sitting from afar. I sighed to myself. “Well…what’s the plan?”, I look back to Cal as he points to the antenna.
“If I can get up there, I can try to force the antenna back to its original position…”, I nod as I look to Bode, who was nodding along with me. “Okay…worth a shot I guess…”, Cal nods back, going to the gates as he forces them open with his Force power. Upon entering the plant, we could see the antenna was not the only thing that was damaged. The generators of the power plant had multiple knife lacerations to them. I watch as Cal takes out his trusty welding tool he carries on him. “Nothing a little welding couldn’t fix…”, He points to the antenna. “Bode…try to work with the antenna…”, “Copy that!”, I see Bode lift himself up into the air using his jetpack as Cal starts working on trying to fix up the generators.
His welding expertise was working as the laceration markings were starting to fade and mold against the metal. He eventually takes a moment to admire his handiwork. Bode lands himself back onto the ground to also see his handiwork. “Did you fix it?”, he asked, seeing the welding marks before him. Cal sighs. ”It’s the best I can do…”, He points to this big light switch as he gestures to me. “Care to do the honors?”, “Sure!”, I go over to flip the switch as the power plant comes alive, humming to life. The lights to the city start to come on as well. “I think we did it…”, Cal smiles. “Yeah…I think we did…”, I see Bode smile too. “Well are we done then? We need to see if the ship is still intact…”, Cal nods to him as we all went to the ship, seeing it was okay. It was starting to get late as we all went back to the apartment, hoping to get some rest from this little fiasco that we had endured.
The End!
Sorry for the blunt ending…this “power outage” ruined my sleep…so I was rushing to finish this so that I COULD sleep…I still don’t feel well rested from Monday...but I will try to do what I can to rest throughout the day today…
Tell me how we should title it in the comments...
“Average apocalypse survivor misses 3 hints per day” factoid is a statistical error. Morgan Jones, who is supremely oblivious and should just kiss Gwen already, is a statistical outlier and should not have been counted.
What if there was a series,and it had a vampire and a werewolf,and it centered around life for them. Like vampires are the preppy,jocky ones,and the werewolves are the kind but can kill you in an instant ones. Like Gryffindor and Hufflepuff kinda? And they absolutely HATE each other. Despise the other one. And then they have to go through the whole rivals to lovers bullshit but like angsty also? And the like vampires friends bully werewolf? I feel like a good name for it would be teeth,like the song by 5 seconds of summer. Just an idea.

Barbara: that's homophobic
Jim:.....bruce what the hell did you-
broke : gideon is represented by birds (more specifically nelson's sparrows)
woke : gideon is represented by DUCKS (because of rossi shooting a duck in his intro in "about face"- signaling that gideon is gone for good, AND the duck painting gideon shot in "nelson's sparrow")
bespoke : Rossi Is Represented By Nelson's Sparrows (because the "nelson's sparrow" case basically became gideon's obsession, his "white whale", and killed him in the process- and rossi has long since picked up the habit of obsessing over cases)

i have no explanation for this
Children/Siblings are like pancakes
The first one is often a little mangled, and has an odd crusty layer because of taking the butter initially that lines the pan so the next ones can be tastier
The middle ones are the best, light and fluffy and evenly cooked on both sides and in nice even circles
The last one is sometimes a little bit too small or too big and often are odd shapes because you’re trying to scrape the rest of the batter off the sides of the bowl
I don’t really know what these means but yknow, I don’t make the rules.
