Okay, I just woke up from this crazy dream and I really need to share it because it was really weird (and Kushiel was in it). I've been dreaming about stuff I've read a lot lately, and having just finished "Kushiel's Justice" a couple weeks ago, I think my brain finally decided to inflict a Kushiel-related dream on me. The following dream contains weirdness, but no spoilers.
Anyways, so I have this dream that my mom's friend is coming over (a person that I don't really like in real life) and so I get really upset when she says she's staying the night, so I end up mouthing off to her. My mom gets the idea that I should be grounded for a week, but her other friend (not a real life person)--a big lady with bright red hair--says to take me to Kushiel, saying "There will be pain, but, in the end, she'll feel pleasure too, and she might learn something." Well, okay, my mom agrees, and so they dump me outside this black portal thing and leave me there. (I think it's supposed to represent a portal to Hell or something.)
Unfortunately, Kushiel looks nothing like the way I pictured him in the books (except for the bronze wings). He had, like, multiple faces and stuff. He had a 'demon' face (dark skin and red eyes), which was my favourite, a face that looked like some sort of ugly ogre, and I saw a wolf's face at one point (yes, a wolf!). I know, it's weird, I woke up and was like: "Where's my handsome male face!? Gah!"
Anyways, he was holding a really nasty looking whip, and (I assume) he started...ahem....punishing me, because I blank out at that point, but at the end of it, my back (in the dream) really, really, hurts but my front is very warm, and Kushiel's carrying me (which makes my back wounds sting).
Anyways, at this point the dream basically repeats itself (not an exact repetition, but it uses the same pattern). However, this time Kushiel says something about killing me because I'm not being respectful, so I spend the next eternity begging him not to. It's really creepy how he just stands there and watches me beg, but when I'm finished, he reaches down, wipes the tears from my eyes--and tells me that that thing he said about wanting to kill me was a test. I'm still shaking like a leaf even after he takes me home.
The dream ends when I go to him willingly.
So, um, am I crazy or what?
