Finals this week. Graduation Sunday. (Officially) Homeowners next week. Going full-time at work as we get moved in.

This whole growing up thing isn't so bad. The five year plan really panned out.

→ Right. Well.
→ I think I'm having Dreams.
→ Which I assume you all know about but didn't tell me because it sounds like the most mental thing ever?
→ But I'm supposed to go home on Monday, and-

[Texts to Laila Khan]

→ Still not sure what to think about all of this madness.
→ I don't suppose it'll go away when I go home?
→ Who are you Dreaming about, anyway?

I know it's sort of a busy time right now with all the birthdays and Halloween, then holidays, but do you think we can figure out some free time for a trip into...at least DC? Maybe beyond if we're willing to put some Super Effort into it? I need your help with something.

[JOSIE]

Babe, serious inquiry time.

I've reached the point in my future planning where I need to make some sort of decision regarding housing post-college. So I want to get your thoughts on all of that since it's a decision that will ultimately impact both of us.

It is my absolute pleasure to announce that the newly minted Dunhaven Zoo & Rehabilitation Center will be reopening on October 3 to kick off our first annual Halloween at the Zoo season. Each weekend, including Thursdays, in October through November 3, we will be hosting a kid- and family-friendly Halloween party with the animals here at our zoo from 5pm-9pm. There will be lots of local vendors stationed throughout the area with treats for everyone and the zoo itself will be transformed into a festive and charmingly spooky park. Meet princesses and other storybook characters, or swap spooky stories with our friendly ghosts. Costumes are encouraged and kids are not required! All kids at heart are welcome. 🎃💀🎉😊

If trick-or-treating isn't your cup of tea, we'd love to see you during regular admission!

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!

Soooo is it bad form to pay to see a movie and then leave after the animated short at the beginning? Because I have very little desire to see Angry Birds 2 (I didn't even know there was an Angry Birds 1?) but oh my god.

(PS: 4 days until 20. 🎉)

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 don't want to alarm anyone, but

20 DAYS UNTIL I TURN 20!

Stella's food truck is back open for business today! 20% off for anyone who takes a picture of either their food purchase or themselves in front of the truck or brick and mortar and shares it on instagram with us tagged in the photo and #makewafflesnotlasagna in the caption. Though, to be fair, I would happily eat my weight in lasagna today, too. ❤️

Thanks for your patience, everyone. I love this community more than I can say.

EVERETT

Your waffles are free today, though.

Who else is doing the food challenge at the new Italian place tomorrow?

NAOMI & ELI

I need to tell you both something. Before we continue working on these suits and eventually finish them, I think it's important that you both know that I'm going to use it. Mr. Salazar, I once told Mr. Stark that, when I can do the things that I do, and I don't, and then the bad things happen, it's on me. And I still feel that way, you know? Like, I don't think it's really fair of me to sit here and pretend like the universe didn't give me the same abilities I had there for a reason. And I just thought I needed to tell you both that in case you didn't really want to be a part of my choice to do it.

And obviously it's up for discussion, but I should say that it's going to be really hard to change my mind.

None of those pieces of beauty are by me, of course. But speaking as the girl who legitimately cried when she met Tiana at Magic Kingdom when she was 18-years-old (just ask Beau; this is a thing that happened), I have been over the moon since this was announced. I am just so happy. I just want my future babies to see all the representation, so let's keep this going. 🙋🏽‍♀️🙌🏽

For everyone who's received more than they bargained for with these dreams, have you only gotten bits and pieces of these "extra" things, or all of it? Sorry [...] I know this is vague.
