Start rambling now

lantairvleaFor some strange reason, my mind seems to asume that every person I meet is agnostic. Well, save for those met at, say, church, or those who run around carrying signs that say things like: Jesus Rettet! or have bumper stickers proclaiming that one should smile as God hearts them. But it's kinda strange. Especially since America is a predominantly Christian country (yeah, there's no denying it) my mind still seems to plop everyone into the "agnostic" category until they prove themselves otherwise.
Typed up from what I wrote in my dream journal:
"Er kann nicht es errinnern." I said. (side note: the proper German would actually be "Ich kann es nicht erinnern," meaning "he can't remember it")
Nightcrawler looked at me with his intense yellow eyes. Something had just happened and he was blamed for it, yet it wasn't him.
The "bad guy" had had some sort of vision battle in Dream Time. I had seen it in my mind's eye, I suppose it might have been my mutant power or somesuch. To see things like that. He was a large man broad, tall, and muscular. Kurt (i.e. Nightcrawler) looked thin and wirely compared to the man as they battled in Dream Time. Towards the end of the fight one of the man's acomplices appeared. Tall, slim, and blonde wearing some sort of grey and maroon jump suit. The Dream Time Nightcrawler turned his attention to her. Thinking of it it looked like he was tickling her. She woke up muttering and screaming next to the large man. Her skin was fluttering and bubbling oddly until she came to. The man was reclined IN the floor, I don't think the woman noticed.
He asked her what was wrong, she told him briefly of her dream. The villan comforted her and she left him sitting on a chair (I don't remember how he got in a chair, but I suppose he got up and sat down after she woke up, anyway). He suddenly seemed to loose himself as if his subconscious had taken a final blow and fell through the chair and into the floor.
The next scene has me in it. I was a slient observer, no one noticed me. Two of the man's top women were discussing something about the other's powers. She was considered some sort of sorcress and had a fairly large following. The other was the same blonde that had a shared part in the Dream Time battle.
Kurt then appeared. He was dressed casually in a white tank and kahki-colored pants. He walked straight over to me. The women's jaws dropped. No, wait, the villain appeared first and started talking with the women. He was detached and not himself. Kurt greeted me and sat down across from me.
The blonde marched over and asked Kurt, basically, what he thought he was trying to pull coming here after what he did. Apparently she not only blamed him for her encounter, but for her boss's state. I told Kurt, in German, that the man was not himself. That something had happened and they were blaming him. I was about to ask him if he knew anything of Dream Time when the women interrupted. (I'd like to note that I started in English, but switched to German because the women were listening.)
They accused Kurt and Kurt looked somewhat confused and contemplative. I knew then that it wasn't him that did it. He walked up to the villain, who was acting fery uncharacteristic and detached. Kurt questioned the man on his (Kurt's) name and mine. He fumbled mine saing Kiray or some such, and he completely blanked out on Kurt's even though he should ahve known it. Kurt slapped him once or twice in an attempt to jog the man's memory, which didn't work.
The man left to his own business, unaffected and still wildly out of character. I pointed and sait "Er kann nicht es erinnern" The women were baffled, I think they realized that Nightcrawler didn't do it. My mind flashed back to earlier. A trial with a woman who claimed to be an Athenan witch who also held sway over the Amazon.
I didn't take her seriously during the trial, but now she seemed like a real possibliity. Could she have powers that gave her control over Dream Time? I was predominantly an observer to Dream Time, not one to act in it save i risk myself, but this witch . . .it could have been her. She could have framed Nightcrawler.
the end
Trying to put together this thing for German, which is craziness as I can't find a descent map of Vienna *shakes fists.*
Hnrr. I don't quite know what exactly to think of the whole gay marriage thing. I can see how they might want to also have access to the tax benifits and also for those that are religous, and, as well, to those who feel like they need some sort of contract to make the relationship all the more binding. But to put it frankly. Marraige, the whole concept of it, has been around for thousands of years. It's the coupling of two opposites into a balanced whole. Or at least that's what it is supposed to be. The concept of marraige is present throughout pretty much every human culture in one form or another. Combination of opposites, male, female. The way it's always been.
It's a prickly little thing, sure, but coming down to it, it's not just tradition here. It's the symbol of marriage itself. Or, rather, what marraige itself represents. Writing a contract between people of the same gender and calling it marriage . . . I don't know. It just seems like it needs a different word.
In other news I saw Alice in Wonderland again after several years. In a word, that movie is queer. It's no surprise that it is said that the author of the book was supposedly a drugaddict which I have butchered the spelling of.
They're making a second Mulan movie. It makes me twitch very much. They don't even have the same animators working on the thing and it shows. It shows a lot. It even shows in the backgrounds and soforth and that's only with a, what, three minute preview? Granted, I tend to be a little more perceptive than the rest of the family when it comes to these things. Hmm, speaking of which, I need to start my collection of horrendous sequals as produced by Disney.
Heh, it's kinda funny. Aitnu is one of the main characters in Shifting Times. He was created about two and a half years ago. He has a memory problem primarily due to a traumatic experience he had at the age of 14 which consequentially caused him to block out not only the event, but pretty much everything that happened before that as well. He's plauged by flash-backs and when he comes to often doesn't even remember what happened. Occationally memories will creep in through dreams as well, but those are mere shadows and soon forgotten as well. All this was roughly blocked out when he was created. This was before I'd even heard of dissacociates and how it affects people. I know I'd heard of people forgetting bad experiences in their childhood before I created him, but that was about it. I almost wonder if coming to understand his character wasn't some sort of odd preparation for everything that's happened in the past two years.
I'm going to drive myself mad. I need to finish translating this thing. Finally found a descent map of Wien, but I still need to translate a whole glob of stuff into German. Gwar. I think I'm going to take a break and have a milk shake.
Yeah, I started typing this around 7 or 8 o'clock . . . off and on since then. Go me.
