In the dream I had, humanity had almost completely died out, but the androids had not.
I was an older man with a British accent and a plan for putting things right. In Boston I found a surviving human, who was not important to my plans, being listlessly guarded in the absence of threats by two bodyguard-model androids, sexless and identical, who unknown to him had named each other Kelly and Kenny, after Gene Kelly; although they disliked him, they treated him with deference because they had to guard a human. Kenny attacked me, but I persuaded her it had a chance of working, and that if she were protecting the future of humanity she wouldn't need to protect this person she disliked. They chose to travel with me, but I was not treated with deference, leading me to believe that my character was also an android.
I had needed to recruit them because the next stop was to visit a shapechanging and dangerous android named Seth, who was a prototype with an unstable personality. When in human shape he swaddled himself entirely in a worn yellow blanket, but he also turned into a horse and a wolf. He was essential to my plan, but I woke up before discovering what the plan was.
My role was credited as The Traveller and the nameless man in Boston was credited as The Last Human.
