nightmares (++)
In more cheerful news, I just remembered a few fragments of last night's dream, wherein some friends and I were trapped in a demonic, reality-warping shopping center that hated us all. It was like the 1408 Mall. It was fuckin' awesome. :D
The best part was getting to try out the trick that I've been wanting to use ever since I saw the actual 1408: sitting down and just _asking_ the poor damn supernatural presence what its problem was and whether we could do anything for it.
It didn't work, but it was gratifying to try. :) And we did eventually get out—by going to the bar that was the entry point for most of its victims, drinking until we blacked out and woke up on the other side of its fence, and just NOT GOING when the timeloop came around again.
Also, one of the possessed complex's "torments" was one pop-up restaurant after the next that had no food left. Man, my brain knows how to get to me. n.n;
re: nightmares (++)
Oh, and if you can ever make it there after it's been exorcised, you should definitely go—the beer garden would actually have been really nice if it hadn't been a lure for wayward souls to be tormented and devoured for eternity, and if the menus were any indication, the Jamaican bakery would have been really good if it hadn't basically been a retelling of the Tantalus myth actually had food. Lots of purple food. Don't ask me, I don't write this stuff.
