Talk:Dreams

Not even close to finished here, but I figured I'd toss up the starters here. One bit of info I'm still looking for on this one. Is there a source hereabouts for the old claim that he had the Crystal dream when he was 21? I can't find one, although I haven't looked that hard yet. Dkaien 19:28, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

• That'd be good if someone could find it, though you've managed to find a quote at least about it being mentioned in a dream. Anyways, fantastic job. You've managed to take my page suggestion and turn it into something better than I originally planned. Perhaps this is too speculative, but do you (or anyone else) think it would be too much of a stretch to suggest that the fact his "Sonic on Game Boy" dream came true, that has caused Chris to put creedence in his other dreams (i.e. Sonichu will be famous, he'll have a daughter named Crystal, etc.)? Anyways, good job thus far. My only comment for improvement is to cite your sources. WHICH IRC chat does he talk about the PandaHalo dream (I totally forgot about that one, so it'd be good if you could source it). Keep up the good work. --Champthom 20:06, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
  • Thanks. The Sonic thing is a good one, I'll look up the dates of when Sega started going cross-platform and see what I can put together. And yeah, there's definitely some stuff where I need to clean up and add some references. One more thing, by the way -- I've seen it claimed he had dreams analogous to the Blanca one about Ivy and Julie. Know where he mentioned those? (I'm guessing it might be somewhere in those reams of untranscribed Mumble chats and so forth.) Dkaien 21:08, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
  • I swear Chris mentioned the Sonic dream coming true at some point. --Raikonos 01:39, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
  • How about a mention of the recurring dream where he meets his sweetheart in a watery maze? ³⁷ Rb ^85.468 19:17, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
    • Good one. Does anybody know of a time he's mentioned that dream aside from the Buzz quiz?
      • We could always drop a letter in the Mailbag asking about the details of it. Maybe say you're a psychoanalysist and are interested in the dream for X/Y/Z reasons? We could also cross-reference the contents of a dream with one of those dream dictionaries and see what they're supposedly meant to mean.
        e.g. Looking up water (the impression I get from "watery" is that it's underwater - much like 'watery grave'), maze and girlfriend yields;
        (under)water; To dream that you are underwater, suggests that you are feeling overcome with emotions and are in need of greater control in your life. You may be in over your head regarding some situation
        maze; To dream that you are in a maze, denotes that you need to deal with the task on hand on a more direct level. You are making the situation harder than it really is. Alternatively, the maze symbolizes life's twists and turns. It represents confusion, missteps, feeling lost or being misled.
        girlfriend; To see your girlfriend in your dream, represents your waking relationship with her and how you feel about her.
        So, combined; The watery maze dream signifies that Chris needs to get in control of his life, and focus more directly on finding a girlfriend (rather than playing a passive role).

        • Although this sounds accurate to Chris's life and actual sound advice, keep in mind he probably doesn't understand that dreams are most likely not to be taken 100% literally (no matter how real and quick it seems), he'll never research this, he'll never take responsibility for himself and his actions in order to tackle things directly. More importantly he's too lazy to take a direct role and rather would wait for things to come to him. Although, if he ever did read what his dream meant, giving his track record for blindly following dreams and whims, he might do it for a bit before giving up because it's too much hard work.
