Hey, good news: I've got a quiz.
[ everyone loves online quizzes, right!! ]
Bad news: it's incredibly invasive and you probably won't want to answer it, but do me a favor and keep reading anyway.
We need to talk about our dreams. So far, we've got:
The dreams on October 5th. Already weird, but significantly weirder after our subconscious deep-dive. As far as I know there are 2 that have been shared between a few people, possibly a 3rd. If any of this sounds familiar, feel free to share with the class:
And then we've got the dreams pre-New Tokyo, which is where the insensitive quiz comes in. I want to correlate as much data as we can, but we can't do that without any data. I know most of us don't want to talk about what went down while we were under, and there isn't much I can do to change that. I'd offer to collect the information privately, or entrust it to someone people like more, but I don't think that'll work, either. We have no idea what we're looking for, so only putting a few eyes or perspectives on it is just going to put us at a disadvantage.
The best I can do is keep it anonymous. You can use THIS SURVEY to share whatever you're willing to share. Omit what you have to, but the more details we can get, the better our odds of finding patterns or keys. The survey won't collect your IDs and tracking's completely off. The catch is that the rest of the Displaced and a few friends at Morningstar will be able to see your answers — even without names attached, I know that's asking a lot. Give yourself a second to think before you hit submit.
For now, all I really want to figure out is whether the environments we encountered belonged to us and whether you'd class them as completely abstract dreams or slightly screwy memories. If we can place dibs on most of them, that's a start. If you want to share anything else, you'll get extra credit.
Last but not least: intellectual discussion and mystery solving is strongly encouraged, but dream shaming is strongly discouraged. Don't be a dick.

- a) a group looking for a bridge and crossing it
b) being held in a facility full of sick people and getting stabby with a lab coat
c) being herded like cattle while strangers check your vitals

( OOC NOTES: This post is 100% for open discussion and threadjacking! Here's a link to the OCTOBER DREAMS descriptions and sign-ups for reference. Regarding SURVEYS, the top-level functions as an external "google form". Just C&P the form and reply to the top-level IC. All survey replies are completely anonymous, and all characters can view these answers.
All discussion must take place on the network post itself with character IDs attached. You cannot reply to the survey responses with free-for-all anonymous discussion. The mechanic is being used to make info sharing easier with sensitive details/private characters, not completely skirt around the network's "no anonymous" rule. Please use it in the spirit intended! )
