A question which recently occurred to me:

[sharpsight.livejournal.com]

N) When those reading this dream, do you each dream a different dream, or is one dream created within your brain which you all see? (Or is one dream created within your brain which only one or only some see/s, or multiple dreams, one or some or all with more than one person observing, or... er. *stops rambling* [insert general request for information here]) *curiosity*

We typically have all different dreams. Sometimes two of us will have the same dream.

Just a quick answer

I don't know how about others, but I've recently had a co-shared dream with Diao, where we'd met with one person, in a dream, and that person would talk to us. We understood different levels of a dream, or a layers so to speak, so we then had to talk about the subtle or more visible/apparent differencies we understood.)

This sharing thingy is cool! Do you think it would work with singletons, too? Like, sharing dreams when you're singleton in a multiple system (or whatever) with someone who is singleton-singleton?

Oh, one more thing. Frombeyond people, you have such a calming avatar! Sorry, I am really unsure who of you has that avatar. I mean that with girl with a blue eye, for a case of confusion. Thanks, having seen it in this place, it brightened my mind reall much!

Dreaming is one activity where we're all clearly seperated out. Other people might have information about the dream, but if Skye dreamt it, it's CLEARLY Skye's dream, if Ada dreamed it, it's a completely different dream. They're flavored by that person's thoughts/feelings/needs/pains/etc.

Sometimes, we share A Dream (ie, there's 'a character' in the dream who we both sort of see, and we remember the same dream when we wake up.)

Occasionally, we have seperate dreams, or one dreams when the other doesn't. Sometimes, we dream seperately inside the same dream.... o_O As in, she's her in the dream, I'm me in the dream, we're in the dream together but seeing it and remembering it from our own view points.

Most common though is The Brain dreaming, and whoever wakes up from it is most likely to remember it and write about it.

it tends to depend, but not on anything specific. Sometimes we all share one, sometimes we all have different ones(and the person fronting when we wake will remember bits of them all)and sometimes the person fronting when we wake will only remember their own.

sometimes, they won't remember their own at all, but someone else's...that's when it gets really weird.

we're all super close, though, so it might explain it.

i know none of this really answered any questions, but if you pick it apart and ask me specific questions, i might be able to elaborate, and be a little clearer.

Its almost always impossible to tell who's dreaming what here.
Well, I don't think that I dream much, and Reno says he has seperate dreams, but most dreams that we can remember don't have any of us as the 'main character.' So its hard to tell who was dreaming, unless it becomes lucid...which almost never happens.

seperate dreams, shared dreams. In shared dreams, I'm me and remember it from my perspective, the others are them and remember it from their perspective. If the body is asleep, some of us can be awake and watch - not see the dreams themselves, but watch the person in the body sleeping. You can slip into the body while it's asleep. But I think whoever you were displacing gets to keep their dream. I don't know, because that would require waking them a few minutes later to find out because no one remembers 100% of their dreams.

We tend to... switch off. Which can have some cool outcomes because, yay, lots of genders in here.

[sethrenn.livejournal.com]

Sometimes one of us in particular wakes up feeling that the dream that was dreamed was definitely theirs.

Sometimes in our dreams we'll switch often, and wake up on a sort of "autopilot," no particular frontrunners.

And then there are the dreams we have every once in a while (not much any more, fortunately) that seem to be "flashbacks" to the time when we believed there was just one of us. But those are pretty uncommon nowadays.

95% of the time in dreams we're using this body. The ones I like best are the ones where we actually have our own bodies.

[allusionist.livejournal.com]

I honestly don't know. Neither of us remember our dreams when we wake up, so we can't exactly go back and compare notes.
