This was easily one of the best (though weirdest) dreams I've ever had.
It starts off with the Scarecrow from Batman, who's managed to sneak his fear toxin into a huge batch of bottled drinks at a factory. Turns out he's working with Kefka Palazzo, who's just taken to spraying people directly in the face with the toxin by showing up at birthday parties, where the people let him in because they assume he's the clown that's coming to perform (except he's also dressed in Claus Lester's clothes?).
Somehow, I find out about the plan and try to stop it, but they kidnap me and toss me in the back of their car. While in the backseat, I overhear them saying that the cure for the toxin is a chemical found in chapstick and lemons. yeah idek I somehow manage to get free and end up on a college campus, so I decide that I'll hack into the college's network, get every student and teacher email address, and send out a mass email telling everyone how to protect themselves against the toxin. BUT hacking is too difficult, so two friends of mine come in to help (I can't remember who; one male, one female). The first stage of the hack requires the user to draw these complicated symbols, which Female Friend handles, and in the second, you have to play a level of this side-scrolling Legend of Zelda game as Zelda, which Male Friend does.
CHANGE OF SCENERY --
alory_shannon and
tao_empress are out having lunch together somewhere and discussing The Hunger Games when Alory's cell goes off, saying it just received my mass email. They read it and realize the threat and word gets around, so everyone starts buying chapstick and lemonade. As Tao thinks it all over, she comes to the conclusion that this fear toxin incident has revealed that the Matrix conspiracy is true, that I'm apparently Neo, and that I have to save the world -- and then she posts about it in her LJ.
Switch scenery again, and it's me thinking to myself, "DON'T WORRY, GUYS -- I WILL FIND YOU BOTH AND UNPLUG YOU FROM THE MATRIX AND WE WILL JOIN THE REBELLION TOGETHER! >8|"
FIN.
...I srsly don't even know wtf my subconscious is thinking sometimes. ALL THE SAME, I THOUGHT IT WAS AWESOME -- AND HECK YEAH THE THREE OF US WOULD BE AMAZING IN THE MATRIX, Y/N? X'DD For my training programs, just install Naruto, Resident Evil, The Karate Kid, and The Lord of the Rings in my head and I'm good to go.
