It’s time to
Use and abuse your DJ!
A Dream Journal is one of the most important parts of a dreamer’s equipment, and as such, we will celebrate it by bringing it into our dreams, and giving it new capabilities!
First thing, locate it in your dream for 20 points! It can be pen and paper, it can be on-line it can be voice recorded, it can be written in the stars, it can even be a living character, whatever sparkles your imagination!
You can state here what form in particular you want your DJ to assume. If you do and it corresponds to the dream encounter, you get +10 points! (If you’re looking for the surprise element, I’ll be of course here backing that up with extra points ^^)
Now for the uses! Any different conventional use of/interaction with your DJ (reading it, writing on it, and if it’s a DC, having a conversation with it …), or any kind of non-dream-related use of it (tossing it around, using it to shield yourself from that fireball…) awards 10 points.
But now for the real treat, each different non-standard use of your DJ that is dream-related awards 20 points! And there’s a lot of this, if you get the basic idea: since a DJ is the place where you describe what has happened in your dreams, if you do that WHILE you are in a dream, you can modify what’s going on real-time! Change whatever part of the dream your desire, turn your enemies into newts, draw whatever you want to appear, grant yourself new powers on the fly!
Additional uses of your DJ include, but are not limited to: throwing it at DC’s to make them become portraits in the pages, let the DJ itself become the dreamscape (after a little drawing), letting the dream write itself out! ^^
Good luck everyone And don’t forget to write everything down a second time in your real DJ when you wake up!
