FINALLY.
I had a rather strange dream this morning. When I got up, I had to zip around for work. I did, however, manage to grab a napkin and a pen and get the most important details written down. Why so important? Because if this isn't story material, then goddammit, nothing is, and I'm sick of not having anything original to look forward to in my head.
***************************************************************
Girl/young woman in prison/psych ward; looks a bit like Jennifer Connelly. Sent to therapist of some sort. A set of stocks are there in case of misbehavior. Girl gnaws/bites and pulls leather wrist strap for a second (right wrist; defiantly, staring at therapist) before settling down. Restless; tosses head and hands a lot. Can only see therapist's eyes (icy green, pale, like crystal) and hear voice. Prompts dreams, fantasies. One includes a sunny "faerie glade;" therapist lies on the ground dressed in white gown, head eaten by spiders. Girl likes the therapist - not romantic so far. Dream of betrayal - therapist turns into T-rex or similar monster, bursts out of lake to attack her.
Girl says, "Dreams. So many dreams." Narrative voice.
**ETA: The therapist is female.
