This night I had three clearly separated dreams. However, the three were always connected by setting, so I'm keeping them under the same title.
Part I - Exploring the School
I'm in an old, dark school. My bosses M. and R. are here, as are some other people I know. I'm not sure why I'm here or what's up with this place, but we spend a long time just exploring it. It's kinda creepy, with dark rooms, corridors and such. I remember there was something said about a ghost, and M. was kinda scared about it, though he pretended he wasn't.
Part II - Menage à Trois
I'm still in the school, but my bosses are gone. Now I'm around with several friends. Mostly, I'm not really myself, and I'm aware of that - I'm somehow controlling another guy's body. The guy was a mostly calm, sheepish person who wouldn't harm anyone. It seems that "being" him made me act like him while I was the one in control. I/he had this friend which was the complete opposite - a moody, agitated guy who didn't care much for morality or anything like that. He had found this cute girl with short hair and glasses, and somehow talked or manipulated her into having a menage à trois with us. I didn't really like the idea, because it seems she was being forced to do it, for some reason. She was a really shy, meek girl, and she didn't seem comfortable with it at all. Still, I/he didn't go against the friend's wishes.
Currently, we were on this restaurant or bar, sitting around a table. We had just eaten. There was me, the moody friend, two others and a purple-haired person, which I recognized as a "secondary character". Funny as that may be, I was thinking how it was nice that a secondary character with a personality and a full back story had been created, but that there was no need to introductions. It just felt much more natural this way, I'd think. I remember comparing it to an anime/manga series, possibly Bleach.
Anyway, the others, like me, didn't really seem comfortable with forcing the girl either. What was worse than that, the moody guy wanted us to have sex right there, in the restaurant. Everyone felt kinda awkward, and it just got worse when the girl walked in the room. I didn't want to force her, neither do it here, so I tried to lighten up the mood. "Eeer... [girl's name], would you like to eat your dessert?" Apparently the moody guy used it before with some kind of sexual connotation, because the girl blushed and awkwardly started to kneel down. It seems that "dessert" was a blowjob. I stopped her before things got worse for her and pointed at the time. "Uh, no that's not what I meant. I mean this", said I, indicating a plate with apple strudel. She blushed again, and looked down, ashamed. The awkwardness in the room was overwhelming.
Suddenly, I seem to slowly leave the guy's body. My view flies up behind him and phases through a glass window a floor above, overlooking the room. I was there physically, watching them.
Part III - Enter the Bird Lady
Now things got a little confusing. The restaurant setting seemed to change a little. Now I was still down there with some friends, but nothing was said anymore about the three previous main characters. Also, more people from RL were down there, including M. Z., from work. At the same time I was in the restaurant, I had an awareness outside it, in the room overlooking it. In a way, that room seemed to be magical - apparently, physically it wasn't connected to the restaurant/bar, but with it's magic it could see it remotely. I'm at the bar with my friends, then my awareness changes and I'm again in window room.
Similar to the restaurant, but much more sophisticated, this was a room with beautiful red velvet on the walls, round tables covered with red and a rich-looking decoration. I was standing near the large window "overlooking" the restaurant, when a man approached. I'm not really sure who he was, but I knew he was powerful - not in the way rich men or politicians are, he had powers that ordinary people didn't have. This man was around 30-35 years old, wore dark clothes and spoke slowly but firmly. He was always sure of himself and what he said, and imposed his presence easily over anyone. He was strong and knew it. He also seemed to know a lot.
He was telling me that someone in the room had done something wrong, or was going to. He gave me a lot of details, but I don't remember most of them. At some point he said something along the lines of "We'll have to get the Spaniard." Knowing that my "other self" was still down there, I ask "You mean me?". "No. You're not a Spaniard." "I'm a Spanish descendan-" He cuts me off, imposing without needing to speak loud. "You're a Spanish descendant, but you're not a Spaniard." He had a point. I felt somewhat relieved, though it hadn't worried me that much. A few flashes showed us having fun in the bar, then I was back into the Wide Window Room. My physical presence seemed to disappear, but I was still in a disembodied form.
The man was talking to a woman that looked 35-45. She didn't really look out of the ordinary. While the man, even without his attitude, looked pretty much charming, she had a plain red dress, long brown hair but otherwise looked pretty common. Still, her presence was much stronger than the man's. And I knew she was powerful, much powerful than me, him or possibly anyone. They talked about what should be done about the people in the room. She waves a hand and a bird is summoned. It was a small, brownish-gray bird, though I'm not sure what kind it was. Suddenly, I'm that bird. She has sent it/me out into a valley. I know I have to get to the restaurant we were in. The mere presence of the bird would cause something, it seems.
The valley was really large and spacious. A large part of it was a beautiful grassy field. A large lake was nearby, and the sun gave everything a dreamy coloring. Around part of the valley were small cliffs and a mountain, as well as natural rocky walls. I flew freely around the valley for a while, then close to the rocky walls, doing acrobatic moves as I went, until I entered the restaurant, which had it's back against the rocky wall. I'm not sure what happened right after this, as there's a gap in my recall. Still, I know that the people in the restaurant were now partially aware of the Bird Lady's actions - they knew something was up, and they were all really familiar and friendly about it.
I was back with the lady, and after some more missing parts, she sent me out yet again, this time as a hawk. Flying as a hawk was even more pleasing. I felt free, and flew around the rocky walls and the valley before once again entering the restaurant. This time, people were gathering in the first room by the entrance. The "other me" was behind a counter. He/I looked suddenly like Edward Elric, from the Fullmetal Alchemist series. I fly in and land on the counter in front of him. I believe I was an owl, or something similar, now. He stares at me "WOOW! Are you me?" I try to answer, but birds don't talk, so no sounds come out. I say that yes, but not from the same time. This explained everything - the reason that there were two of me was because one was the past me, while the other was the present me. I say something about the Bird Lady, too, but again there is no voice.
