Pretty dreams
Jun. 16th, 2007 12:47 pmHad interesting dreams.
I liked the bit featuring the Doctor in schoolmaster uniform ie not actually the Doctor at all but still very pretty. And stern. I was somewhere I shouldn't ought to have been, because I stepped through a door and sat around lazing in the sun and that side of the door was very far away from the side I'd started on. So he was all grr and telling me off and I step back through the door and watch the original sign fade away to leave a sign saying something appropriate to the new venue, and then I nod at it and say "Thought so."
And he looks at it and sneers and says "Don't pretend you can read that."
And I get offended and start listing off all the languages I can read, although by the end of the list they're more 'read one symbol and/or recognise the writing', so we start with English, Latin, Spanish, French and end up with Egyptian hieroglyphs, Sumerian/Akkadian Cuneiform and Greek.
By the end of the list his scowl has grown to epic proportions. He purports to not believe a word of it, but either way he drags me off to see the Captain. Who is the boss of him, because we are on a ship.
Then with dream logic I ended up making shields, one black, one green, one half and half. Two of them have snakey symbols in the middle, like a goauld in the tummy.
Then I run away, and the shields turn into tunics.
... told you it was a dream ...
Anyways, I run into a place where ladies are bathing. I don't recognise them. One has very very pale skin, the other has an all over tan. Like pearls and gold, only in skin colors not anything unnatural. They're pretty, and whilst they start out offended I quickly demostrate I too am a woman and in great distress. This needs demonstrating because apparently I'm running around in pirate costume all dressed as a guy. Anyways, they decide to help me and give me a fancy dress, one of those big skirt stiff bodice elaborate thingies that match the pirate costumes, and then I hide the tunics (possibly under the skirt) and wander off again.
Teacher-hat-black-robe-not-the-Doctor-guy catches up to me, only now he doesn't recognise me cause I'm a girl. He tries to chat me up. Well, it being a pirate ship the 'chat' part is fairly minimal, but he does at least ask before he grabs. For the locale he's very polite. And I have to be all apologetic and 'it wouldn't be proper' and doing that saying no in such a way they think you'd mean yes if they change the circumstances a little bit thing. And then I try it in different languages and you could see his eyes light up - woman with brains! Wants! So he was chasing me around in a gentlemanly enough it wasn't nasty but nasty enough it was fun kind of way, with kissing and attempting to grope through clothes that seem to have been designed as armour against that sort of thing.
Then Ianto walks in, and chases him off, because there are Rules about the female prisoners and we're no good for sale or ransom if we're damaged in transit.
Ianto is in pirate gear, with a sword, and with interesting hair. Bleached almost white, short on the sides but long enough in the top it's braided, and then with a head cloth around. I wish I was any good at art because he looked really, really nice.
So then dream logic skipped some steps and he ends up wearing a suit and with the sides of his hair cut so it's dark again and the top tucked away and basically looking all tidy. Not one of his suits though, looked more like the one Persuasion had in four to doomsday, a nice vibrant green. Not really his color but this dream had a theme. So he was all 'but I look weird! and people will be mad at me for being in the wrong place!' and I was all 'nobody's going to recognise you like that' which was turning out true so far. And I'd got changed again so I was in boy clothes. I think the half and half black and green. Somewhere around here in the dream it turned out I was a hermaphrodite, and hence could look equally good as either. Though I would have been something of a surprise to the DTlooking guy. The witty banter with him retroactively involved saying absolutely true things about this that he'd never catch on to because the possibility wasn't in his worldview.
So then me and Ianto headed off to meet the captain.
Never did see the captain in the dream
Probably cause he's not on until about 7pm
