What reminds you of dreams?
« on: August 12, 2015, 11:11:14 pm »

I now you're probably thinking, "there's already a dreams thread!" This isn't a dreams thread. It's much simpler than that:

Just think of an object that reminds you of a dream, either in it's bizarre surrealism, or it's strangely melancholy atmosphere.

There are some rules to this of course:
 -Nothing scary or disturbing. No one wants to have nightmares because of this.
 -Nothing silly or immersion-breaking. I'm using these objects as an inspiration for a story/game, and I don't want anything to detract from the experience.

The object you choose can be as simple as "A blue bowl of milk," to as complex as "A painting of an elephant in a bowler hat, it's edges faded by the passing of time or burned by a fire." If you've played Device 6, you'll be able to think of something pretty quickly. If not, just think of a dream you've had (or just look at other people's dreams in the dreams thread) and take inspiration from that. Also, I really don't care if you discuss other people's objects just as long as you're not ridiculing them and as long as you've contributed an object, too.

I've already given two examples, so I'll let you think of the rest. Don't just read here. Write something, too.
