Poll question: Have you ever had nightmares about being on trial? |
|
Inspired by Xen's nightmares...
And if so, what were the charges?

1. No; but I once dreamed I'd murdered someone.... |
|
and I once dreamed I killed someone in a hit and run accident. I couldn't shake the horrible feeling those dreams left for a few days.

2. Just trying to see how common *this* one is |
|
Some dream themes are more common than others.

7. What, both attorneys were against you... |
|
you felt you couldn't get a fair trial, and they wouldn't tell you the charges?

The prosecutor and defense attorneys were both against me, so was the judge.
I also could not speak. I tried, but I couldn't.

on edit: Was your mouth duct-taped? Or just your microphone wasn't turned on?

quite clearly..
They were fragments of my personality...
There was...
For my "defense": My "conscience" though warped and twisted. He looked like a vulture-man.
For the prosecution: My duplicity and all around "evil" impulses. A man with no face.
The Judge: My rage, anger, bloodlust etc. "evil" impulses relating to battle and violence. He looked like a demon. (wings fangs claws horns red skin etc.)

15. Oh, duh, I had forgotten |
|
I was just wondering if any of them bore any similarity to the ones in the movie.

Except that in the movie, where the attorneys sat was where I stood, and where the court reporters were, was where the attorneys were.

only them telling me what I had done and how I was guilty.
They presented "evidence"; mostly heresay of course.
I think they wanted me to admit they were right.

6. Yeah; you and I have similar nightmares |
|
at least sometimes.
Xen, however, has had the English-style-courtroom show up in his. I'm trying to find out if that's common or not...
