1. I'm an immersive daydreamer. 

2. I have this habit of making anagrams out of random words I see.

3. I think peregrine falcons are the coolest animals ever.

4. It hurts my heart watching Brett and Eddy drink bubble tea because it's been aaaages since I've had any (lockdown ya know).

5. I have a major pet peeve against inconsistent formatting in worksheets from school and when I see them I get really annoyed for no good reason.

Hi @Mulberry_Owl😊 It's lovely to meet you!

Immersive daydreams sound fun! What do you normally daydream about?

Also, I agree - peregrine falcons are definitely the coolest birds! The fastest in the world 💙

It's complicated 😅 The gist of it is that my daydreams are set in this parallel daydream world, which is incredibly detailed.  It has thousands of years of history, its own traditions, geography, languages, lore and laws.  My daydreams usually revolve around the lives of a few of my main paras (term for daydream characters) and how they interact with the world.  It's a bit like reading a book, except that there is no text.  It's all narrated from my inner monologue and I visualise things as they happen.  My current daydream world has been with me for more than a year now and I have emotional connections to my paras.  Although it's a fantasy parallel world, I find that many elements of the real world are present in my daydreams as well, but in a different form.

Emily-ROPosted 25-08-2021 11:20 AM

Oh wow! That sounds so interesting 😊 Something that I love about reading books is that I have to use my imagination quite a bit to visualise the words on the page. But it sounds like you do that when you're not reading books too! 😮

Do you have a favourite para? 

 
 
 
 
 
Mulberry_Owl
Mulberry_OwlPosted 25-08-2021 04:32 PM

Yeah I guess so. There are several who I look up to, mostly the 'adult' ones. They're some few millenia old (timelines work differently in my world 😳) and are generally pretty wise. There's another para whose perspective I most often daydream from. She's one of the younger ones and I know her the best out of all my paras. I usually picture her as looking somewhere around the 12-13 age range, but she's some 800 years old haha. Recently I realised that she was kind of like an unconscious embodiment of the duality of things, like experience and inexperience, wisdom and naivety, professionally and playfulness. At any rate, she's the one I feel the strongest affinity to.

Emily-ROPosted 25-08-2021 04:56 PM

That's so interesting @Mulberry_Owl😊 it's like something from the most vivid fantasy novel! All the paras sound so detailed. Do you feel like your affinity to her is because you can relate to her? Is it ok if I ask what her name is?

 
 
 
 
 
Mulberry_Owl
Mulberry_OwlPosted 25-08-2021 05:52 PM

Yes I think it has something to do with that 🙂 She has some of the flaws and insecurities I have, but I acknowledge her as her own person and not my alter ego. Sometimes daydreaming from her POV helps me deal with my emotions and worries. As for her name, I named her Quicksilver after the protagonist of Foxheart by Claire Legrand. Tbh many elements in my daydream world have been inspired by it. It left a huge and lasting impression on me, especially the character of Quicksilver - morally ambiguous, mercenary, stubborn and prickly as a cactus, but also brave and noble and determined to the very end. I'd say she's an unusual protagonist, and she grows a lot over the course of the story. She really stood out to me among other literary characters.
