All art is at once surface and symbol

I had an interesting dream the other day! It's another "Lost Content/Expanded Edition of Earthbound Beginnings" dream, and dang it's a doozy. It included a weird forest and lab area, and the enemies that you encounter are... Pokemon! You're even given a diary that lets you keep track of all the "creatures" you run into. What's more interesting is a lot of the Pokemon are from generations that wouldn't exist until way later, with Gen 6 being the furthest. And this was before Pokemon Red/Green itself came out. You can encounter the following:

Skiddo
Gogoat
Chimecho
Eevee
Pikachu
Charmander
Charizard
Fennekin
Grimer
Muk
Spearow
Bronzor

Mewtwo is even a final boss of some sorts inside the lab, and you specifically have to interact with Mew and receive an item from it in order to live. Something important was supposed to happen after you logged in all the creatures and got the item and met with Mew and Mewtwo, something plot-related with Geigue and his origins I think? Then the dream turned into a really bizarre fusion of a prototype game of Sonic Adventure 2/Star Fox and it was cool.

I definitely wish I had dreams like these more often. :o

Fandom Stuff to Do

- Finish MSTing Gabriel's Inferno and make revisions
- Write letter for Rare Pair Fest
- Brainstorm for Season of Kink (and remember to post your card since you've been keeping it for a while)
- Consider PMMM Non-Canon Ship Challenge as a way to improve art skills (and maybe a few ficlets too)

Gabriel's Inferno takes the highest priority atm. I'm almost done! :D

Zar started a screencap adventure of Mato's translation of Mother 1. I'm so happy! ;;
