Sharing dreams, as in the idea that the people you meet in a dream, are also dreaming the same dream of yours, is one my nightmares

(Stoner voice) Whooaa, that's crazy...

How about the dream concept from Inception where people share your dream and it's a sandbox sort of thing like a Minecraft server?

In that one is more like they go out of their way to invade your dream, so it takes some deliberate effort in order to happen

But the idea that you others can casually just end up sharing a dream, imagine for example a dream in which you park your car on a very, very steep hill, but don't lock in the manual break, so the moment you get off, the car starts rolling down and causes an accident

Or a dream in which your PC catches fire with the last update for your company's project, and then you come up with some stupid bullshit to extend the deadline, which of course fails, and now you are unemployed

Or the classic dream of going out without pants

But then you woke up and know that all the shame and horrors, reside locked in the fictional world of your mind, you sight with relief, knowing that none of it was real, and that no one else knows about what you did

Except... all the people you meet in that dream? they had the same dream and they know everything

Non-consensual dream-sharing. Yeah, I guess it depends on how they interpret the dream after it's over. Do they accept that it's a dream and anything can happen in it, or are they going to be like a crazy ex-gf who gets upset with you after dreaming that you cheated on her in her own dream.

There's a Nicolas Cage movie about this which just came out last year btw

this is a really good concept for a movie or story or something. someone committing a horrible sin within a dream, something really abhorrent, but believing it was OK because it was a dream. but then they slowly realize that sometimes dreams are shared, they find out that there were dream witnesses to their dream atrocity, and living in fear and shame that maybe someday they'll meet them. the discourse of "well, it didn't really happen, so it's OK, but they still chose to do it within the dream, so what does that say about them...?"

the Nic Cage movie is sort of similar, but afaik that's more like Nic Cage keeps showing up in people's dreams, but he isn't dreaming in those dreams, like they see him but he doesn't know he's appearing in their dreams.

also ty for reuploading this mysterious chapter here, good to have them all in the same place. it's so funny when this series dabbles in the supernatural.
