My stock is currently overflowing right now, so I have a pretty intense sale going on in my Etsy shop and will also have more options than usual down at the farmer's market alongside the Navarro produce. I will still do custom orders, of course, but my existing pieces are very much on sale, if anyone is on the prowl for some jewelry.

Today is the day! The first annual Dunhaven Youth Center 5k Run/Walk begins this morning at 9:30! You still have time to go down and register.

Astrid says she's been training all week, and she's getting pretty good with the proper motivation! Gotta go out there and support Dad!

P.S. If you didn't know, it's officially Sixlets season. Time to fight the children for candy.

CHESA & ISAIAH

Apparently our lives are but entirely separate from there because here we are and, once again, I need help finding Nightmare. She's here and I need to find her. I need to talk to her. And I need your help.

ALEE

There's someone else from my world here. Nightmare. And Adrian has reason to believe that she knows something about who killed his mom. But I have no idea who she is and she won't come forward.

Hi, everyone! Another post so soon? Thanks to Naomi's brilliant idea, I'm going to put together a resource accessible to anyone dealing with the Dreams that essentially just lists who is being dreamed of and any other pertinent details you might think need to be included for others to identify that they're at least sharing dreams about the world even if they don't know the name. For example, it might look like:

Leia Organa-Solo - From Alderaan, daughter of Breha and Bail Organa
Han Solo - Made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, from Corellia

Just leave a note here, anonymously or not, letting me know the name of who you are dreaming about and anything else you want to mention. If you want YOUR name attached to it, as well, for shared dreamers to more easily get in touch with you, let me know. Otherwise, I'll attach your Anon ID so that others can filter you anonymously!

This is totally optional, but I hope you'll consider doing it, at least anonymously!

TEXTS TO JEB

-- I can literally see you in the kitchen, but I don't want to bug you or your employees more than I already do hence texts.
-- I know it's usually pretty late when you finish up here, but would you want to hang out, maybe?

All right, my friends, this one can relate to the Dreams, or just your life here. Commenter's choice! Anonymously, or not anonymously, tell me what song--or songs--is stuck in your head or on repeat on your Spotify playlists. Drop a link, share lyrics, whatever you want. And feel free to provide context, or not. Anything goes. I just want to know what's currently on your soundtrack.

I feel very old.

PUBLIC, ANONYMOUS POST

This is a discussion posed to those of you who have also received [...] powers and/or abilities you didn't possess before. I know it's been brought up before but I was thinking since some more time has passed and people might be more comfortable talking about it, or maybe new people have joined the unofficial 'club', it might be worth bringing up again. Would anyone want to maybe meet up? Start a support system for learning how to deal with these powers in our world?

Also just wondering... Do you use them? Maybe not even in the same way you used them in your other world, but just in general?

I've been trying to avoid reading about Marvel stuff, but it's just everywhere with all of the Disney announcements that came out the last handful of days and it's slowly grating away at my sanity which is probably the only reason I've reached this point where I'm willingly talking about these damn dreams in public. I haven't been having them that long compared to some people, so it's sort of weird for me. But these dreams are tough sometimes and I know they'll get worse, so I thought maybe it was time to sort of come out of the shadows and maybe make some connections with people who might be dreaming about the same tough things. I haven't really been paying attention to who has and hasn't been vocal about this stuff to know already, so sorry if I should know.

[...] Anyway. Anyone out there that's familiar with Natasha Romanoff?

ZEKE

I need to tell someone something. Can you be that someone?

LYLLIA

Guess what.

( instagram post! )

I don't usually post publicly about this dream stuff, but I'm just...curious. How many of you find a large amount of similarities between yourself and your dream self, and how many of you find that you're completely different from the person you dream of?

I can't decide which one is worse. I'm...very similar to my person, even things that happened long before I started dreaming of him seem to have an echo in these dreams. tbh sometimes it kind of reminds me of that movie Us, like we're tethered to one another, and what happens to one happens to the other in at least some capacity. Only, luckily neither world is a dark underground bunker and also I don't think my dream-self is capable of murdering me or vice-versa. Anyway. Sometimes it sucks, but then I was also thinking it probably sucks to dream of someone really different, too, especially if they were like...a bad guy, or something.

Anyway. I guess I'm just kind of wondering what other people experience on this front.

Hey. I just wanted to say thank you again for inviting me to the wedding. I had a really wonderful time and it was nice being able to confirm that you do, in fact, exist outside of the restaurant. 😉

[CHESA]

Can I ask you something? Since we're friends.

Time for another anon post, if you're so inclined to jump in. Your responses can, as always, be public or anonymous, whichever makes you most comfortable.

Is there anyone from your other life that you wish was here with you, that you could see and talk to in whatever capacity? Assume for the purpose of this post that your response does not come with the unintended consequence of wishing dreams/memories on another individual. This just piggybacks off of the last post when we talked about things you wish you could say to someone back there, or here.

JEB

Hi. We're friends, right?

As in, if I tell you about this weird situation I'm in right now, would you be willing to listen and maybe provide an opinion?

How the actual hell is it July already?

ADDED LATER: Paging Nova McLain.

ISAIAH

I'm like 5000x over these dreams, so I'm going to focus on something totally different. Can you keep a secret?

ALEE

Morning, beautiful. We should decide on a date so that next time we accidentally refer to ourselves as already married, it will actually be true.

The Navarro's stand is going to be darn beautiful this weekend at the market, friends. You might want to check it out and here's the proof: ( Cut for image! )

I'll also have some new pieces there, if jewelry is more your style.

Hi, friends.

It's been a long while since we've done one of these and, though I no longer need the data for my sociology class, I do think they've been very productive in terms of discussion. So here's another anonymous post for you! Again, you can turn on the anon filter and no one will know who you are, or you can just respond as yourself, whether because you're not ready to reveal who you're dreaming about, or whatever the case may be.

Tonight's question is: If you could say something to someone you knew/know in your dream world that you can't say here for whatever reason, what would it be?
