Magneto Dream

Apr 09, 2014 18:44

With this dream, I learned two things about how I relate to Magneto in my subconscious...

1) Even when he's being played by Michael Fassbender he isn't always in love with me. I mean he loves me, but he isn't always in love with me. For a long time I'd never had him be in love with me. I only had a dream where Magneto was actually in love with me after I first saw Michael Fassbender play him. This dream taught me that his being Michael Fassbender's Magneto isn't a guarantee that he will be in love with me. In this dream, I was just a sidekick he cared about in that "junior partner" kind of a way. The one where they say, "She's like a kid sister to me."

2) When Michael Fassbender's Magneto is trying to kill me, if he's under the control of someone else, I haven't got it in me to fight back. I could not hurt him knowing the drive to kill me wasn't his. I'm not sure what would've happened, if I hadn't woken up when I did. I imagine either a) I would've wound up painfully dead at his hands, or b) the mental control over him would've gotten broken. Hell, for all know I'd have learned he was actually in love with me by how the control got broken. I woke up still frantically trying to avoid getting killed by him before I could get him free of the mind control.

For the record, I'm sure the dream was prompted by my exploring all of the promotional stuff out so far for X-Men: Days of Future Past. The setting was an anti-mutant future, but not one where we were being hunted by Sentinels. We were being hunted by other mutants. I'm not sure who got control of Erik. It could've been Rachel Summers. For that matter, being an AU generated by my subconscious, it could've been Charles himself. Who it was is another thing I might've found out if the dream had lasted. As it is, I don't know who it was.
