Dreams

[This is quite the digression from my recent string of posts]

I had weird dreams last night and thought I'd put them here to preserve them in case memory decides not to. Already, the images and tactility of them are slipping through the cracks that run through human memory and populate the brain more and more as age comes in.

I remember eggs - weird and unnapetizing. I want to throw up right now. A scientist had shell-less yolks in a translucent vat of sorts. They were shaped like eggs, only they existed as mere yolks. And they looked gelatinous, like the white parts usually are. Anyway, all of a sudden, I saw one yolk 'multiply' like an amoeba, and that part multiplied, and so on, until the vat was full of egg yolks. Upon tables in front of other vats, the multiplying eggs seemed to have been reduced to yellow crystals. The scientists said they were safe to eat, and we fried the little bastards up to make scrambled eggs. They were good.

Then, in a retro-futuristic world that was first black and white, a group brought (or they could've made, I can't remember) a young man. He was very frightened and weird. They took him to 'the room', which is a variant of the Infinity Room from my imagination. The IR is a closed structure built around a space-time anomaly found in the desert. Around the IR is a secret but large lab. Scientists somehow found a way to control the anomaly, and by using the IR's computer, can create anything they wish, including alternate planes of existence, or go back in time.

The young man created what I guess was some sort of creature, reminiscent of the Gekko's from metal gear solid 4:

^Gekko.

Anyway, they kept making the young man - who reminded me of Edward Scissorhands - do things in The Room. As time went by, he started breathing some sort of gas from a hose by putting it into the apparatus over his mouth. He started loving or caring about another guy in the room and gave him some gas, too. As the two started breathing the gas, colour came into the world. Then, doors opened at the back of the place they were in, revealing a cold-looking night in a very large and imposing city. Neon green gas was freaking everywhere.
