Many of the details are sketchy. The entire cast of characters were highschool students, including me. I think I was a taller than average, skinny awkward boy, with a healthy head of wavy black hair.
The entire dream took place in a mall, and everything seemed so scripted. Not scripted so much as ritualized.
The first thing I remember was sitting in a bubble-tea cafe. There were several tables there, each of which had exactly 2 boys, and 2 girls. I think it was some sort of game. Each round was a question. It wasn’t really a question like a trivia question, more an ethical question. I no longer remember the question(s), or the rules of the game. I do remember that something disrupted the session and we had to leave. The four of us that were at the same table started leaving together, but I had to go back for something.
There was some guy outside the cafe making a bit of of ruckus. He asked how they liked his comments. He was talking to the girl behind the counter. He had written in pen on their signs. I don’t remember the exact words, but they were hostile, and I think were occult in nature. Or maybe they were just insults using language like “burn as a witch”.
The other memory of the dream, occurred later.
I was in a huge circle of other high school aged children. We were all sitting in the folding chairs in the middle of a big open space in the mall. Again, I think this was some sort of game or ritualized behavior of some sort. I was not paying a lot of attention, and the girl next to me, a cute girl, with porcelain skin and shortish brown or black hair, was talking at me (and a couple of other kids around me), but whatever she was saying required a response. And I gave her none. She snapped her fingers to get me attention, and I replied “Sorry, I was zoning out”.
“Well you know what that means?”. Suddenly the floor went quite, some soft music started playing”. I knew exactly what it meant. We were going to have to dance in front of everybody, and it mortified me. She stood up, and offered her hand to me. I reluctantly complied. She was a petite girl, and came up to my chest, in height.
