Finally had my first dream about my oshi!
So, it's a school setting and we're sitting at the back of the class with my (in-dream) best friend to my left, and Fauna (my crush) to the right, with her best friend to her right (but sometimes she would be in front of her). My friend was like one of those cartoon best friends of the MC (he would suddenly become different characters from different cartoons I've seen and even transformed into Ron Weasley at one point, so he would always be switching characters but he was always the same person. Same with Fauna's friend. She kept changing characters but was still the same loud, outgoing person (even changed to that Indie vtuber Fillian one time). But Fauna always stayed the same.
My friend knew I had a crush on Fauna, so he would always try to give me shit about it, but in a way that would try to get her attention to get her to talk to me. But Fauna's best friend was always talking to her the entire time and making her laugh constantly, so she never even turned around or noticed our shenanigans. I basically didn't exist to her.
I also had to 'manage' my seat throughout the day. It was a normal desk chair, but whenever I tried to examine it, it would transform into a toilet, and there'd be a UI that pops up with stats and stuff. The toilet had a bunch of school supplies in it, and over the course of the day it would slowly fill up with water. So I had to keep an eye on it and flush the water so it wouldn't spill out of my seat. Whenever I stopped examining it, the lid would cover back up and the toilet would turn back into a regular desk chair.
So in order to try and get Fauna's attention I tried to do better in class. Anytime the teacher asked the class a question I would raise my hand and give the most detailed and smart-sounding answer as possible. Fauna would slowly start to turn her attention to me, but the friend would steal her right back and make her laugh.
When the day ended I had to sit on a wagon and somehow push myself all the way back home and pick up bread from the bakery. This happened every day and I was always stuck behind traffic. Sometimes the wagon would change into a car and I would sit on the hood, but I was always pushing it through traffic on the way home. Sometimes random people would offer a ride home. But I always had to stop by the bakery to grab my box of bread (it was always waiting for me in one of those big cardboard soda boxes with that tough plastic covering over the top.) Sometimes the bread would be croissants or buns.
After several days/weeks I finally made a break by telling a funny story out loud to my friend. That's when Fauna finally noticed me and became interested in listening. Her friend stopped trying to steal her away. And then after that I would always have a story for her which basically turned the dream into a movie for each story, and then it would come back to the class again. Slowly I managed to get one star in her relationship status (out of like 30 stars total). We started to get a little closer (our desks are somehow pushed together now), and suddenly my friend pretends like she's not right there and tells me I should ask her out one of these days. It was the most embarrassing thing he could have said and I panicked, but Fauna didn't seem to mind, she just laughed cutely and gave a warm smile.
So not only did I manage to get her attention, we became friends, and now she knows I have a crush on her but isn't totally grossed out, and I had the perfect transition between being in the dream to waking up. It's extremely rare when this happens. I didn't suddenly wake up and forget the dream. I slowly woke up remembering everything clearly and it didn't just fade away. I even realized I was dreaming, but it was okay and it felt like I left it on my own, and I'm glad I was able to do it on the perfect note, becoming friends with Fauna.
At the corner of my vision just as the dream started to fade out I noticed our 'relationship' was now 2 full stars (out of 30).
But more importantly, I'm glad my toilet 'seat' didn't overflow or spill out any water. That would have been a disaster and there would have been no recovering from it. I'm sure I would have lost all my progress with Fauna if that happened. Thank God I made sure to flush.
