I just woke up from a strange dream that made me feel incredibly sad for some reason.
It had a sci-fi setting with room-sized machines that allowed one to "swim" (literally, you had to be put in a container with liquid because your body would move while you were asleep) in their own dreams and in other people's dreams. I don't remember most of what happened but the last thing I remember before waking up was what I was reading a book (it was like a photo album styled like a manga) with images of myself and my friends and coworkers, and apparently the job was damgerous since the photos featuring my coworkers would show how they were losing body parts after missions. The weirdest thing is that I think I was a girl in my dreams, like Asuka but shy and with ponytails and I think I had a best friend or LI that looked like Rei with black hair and a protective personality (I have never watched EVA or dreamt about being a woman) since there was a photo of us being together in the floor after someone rescued us from something (a mission gone wrong?). I immediately woke up when I was about to see a photo in that album, I don't know who was there but something inside tells me it was that other girl. And for some reason I woke up with the same sadness one feels when you remember a dead friend, but trying to remember her face, my friends and the rest of the dream makes my heart feel a void, and my brain refuses to try to piece the parts of the story together.
Again, I have mever watched, read, played or even dreamt lf something like this before, and for some reason I'm afraid of going back to sleep again. Someone please help me understand this sudden sadness.
