I normally don't write about my dreams in here, but that's because I very rarely remember them! Although...it is becoming a little easier to remember them these days. I wonder why that is...
But this dream was too...odd not to try and make note of what I can remember of it!
In this dream, instead of the normal set I'm used to seeing I was instead in a preschool! All my patients were little preschoolers instead of their normal grown selves even! Which was just as cute as one would think!
The class was divided into three groups: the older kids, the little ones and the babies. It mirrored the typical age grouping of my patients with Vick-san being the oldest at four and Sailor-kun being the youngest at about seventeen months old.
It was...certainly strange, especially given that I was the only teacher for the entire group! Oh but they were all soooooo cute I didn't wind up minding that much.
Like in the waking world, Gates-san was especially helpful! He mostly kept Benny-san out of trouble or from picking fights with Bones-san....which happened more frequently than in the waking world. But I guess a two year old would have less impulse control than a twenty-seven year old would...
Although, unlike in the waking world Benny-san and Bones-san often hugged and cried while apologizing to each other after their fights! It was a very odd sight at first since I'm so used to their grown selves just storming off or cursing one another out after they fight...Maybe what they both really need is a chance to talk things out and have that moment where they cry together and apologize for hurting each other....especially since their dream counterparts would often wind up playing together more nicely after they were done crying and apologizing.
Maneki-san was surprisingly a little rascal in this dream! I'd often find them hiding in cupboards or climbing up high and have to rescue them! And of course I wound up with a few bites because of it....But he's so calm and mellow as an adult that it confused me so much...Maybe I should take that as a sign that there's more to Maneki-san than meets the eye.
Vick-san and Cecilia-san surprisingly fought a lot too! I mean they're both civil with one another when grown but...I guess both were a little bratty when they were kids? Or maybe they have a tension hiding beneath the surface that's just waiting for an opportunity to make itself known. Either way, poor Rook-san wound up in tears very often because she tried to help break up these fights and Gates-san would get annoyed. He'd get really mad and try telling Vick-san and Cecilia-san off, but he'd wind up throwing a tantrum instead because they'd both call him names.
Usually he felt a little better after being pulled off to the side for a bit to help him calm down...Ah but it was a little heartbreaking to see him look so embarrassed while apologizing for getting so upset! Gates-san usually DID seem extra sad after losing his temper as an adult so maybe that habit started early in life...But honestly he was handling things about as well as he possibly could so maybe both little and big Gates-san need to give themselves a little more credit for their efforts.
Sandbag-san was unsurprisingly very attentive to what the baby group needed, especially Sailor-kun! It would often toddle over and tug on my skirt with a little, "Miss Miku, help pease!" Even as an adult, he was the first to fetch me whenever someone he was spending time with got ill. Although it would always hesitate when it came to its own needs...Even little Sandbag-san tried hiding a scrape on his knee for a while before finally admitting that it hurt and he needed a bandage.
Cobyn-san would often help Sandbag-san look after the baby group, which was honestly quite cute! It's no real secret that Cobyn-san and Sandbag-san were sort of crushing on one another as adults soooo....It was cute seeing them work together and hug each other! Especially when poor Sandbag-san would get upset or startled and get teary-eyed. Of course unlike his adult self Cobyn-san would cry with Sandbag-san but...Maybe it's just a sign that the two of them could lean on one another for emotional support when my efforts aren't enough to help properly.
Vega-san wasn't all that different if I'm being honest. She was always trying to look into or investigate something, which sometimes got her into sticky situations! But they'd just dust themselves off with a little, "'m fine. I pwanned dat." Which felt so much like something he'd say when grown that I couldn't help but laugh to myself a little over it when they all had their naps. Just as independent and stubborn as always, huh Vega-san?
Poppy-san and Elise-san were often playing with one another in this dream, even to the point of getting fussy if one of them had to be taken away for a little bit to get cleaned up. Which might reflect how often I've seen the two of them sneaking off together in the waking world. Honestly, it was so cute seeing Elise-san let their guard down with someone especially with someone like Poppy-san! Ah, but seeing the two of them take their naps beside one another and get all snuggly almost made me cry. It was soooo cute! I hope their grown selves get to have cute moments like that.
Sailor-kun was an especially giggly baby in this dream! He found all sorts of things funny and enjoyed getting all sorts of hugs and kisses from me when I was tending to him! I mean he's a fairly upbeat teenager in the waking world, so I can't imagine him being all that much different as a little baby! And of course his fascination with sea creatures still remained the same. Sandbag-san would often use little plushes of sea creatures to tell little baby Sailor-kun stories, which was so stinking cute to see! I wonder if Sandbag-san knows stories like that in the waking world too or if it also loved making up stories as a little kid?
Of course this dream DID get me into a bit of trouble! You see, I was sort of in a half-awake state this morning when going to do my first set of rounds and still thinking about that dream. So of course what do I do when checking in on Vick-san, Bones-san and Elise-san this morning? I automatically start react as if I'm still in that dream, which ended with dream Vick-san being upset over spilling juice on himself during a post-nap snack.
Let me tell you that grown-up Vick-san did NOT appreciate having his hand held and patted while I said, "Don't worry honey, we'll get you all cleaned up! Accidents happen, right?"
His face got so red and his voice got really growly, which is what woke me up fully! Elise-san and Bones-san laughing about it certainly didn't help matters either!
"Awww what's wrong Vicky? Did the baby wet his pants last night?"
Elise-san teasing him seemed to be the last straw for Vick-san and he got even more mad! He started demanding to know why I was treating him like a little kid all of a sudden when he's very clearly a fully-grown man and well....I sort of ran away to avoid having to explain anything!
Ugh, I'm so embarrassed! And I'm trying to write all this down so if I get caught I can just show him this a-
