I realistically could post about two tomes of literature on my dreams that I've neglected to post over the past two months. But I'm not going to do that and flood you all with such things, as the majority of them haven't been thought about very much other than some specific points within them that were quite bizarre or otherwise noteworthy.

First let me paint for you the setting. It was a dark and stormy afternoon (huehuehue) with rain all about. It was most likely a Sunday as there had been no school that day. I was in my bedroom, contemplating what I wanted to do with the rest of my day when I decided that I wanted to go over to this enormous house where lots of people from my school lived. This house has occurred several times in my dreams before, being oddly consistent between dreams. Once I entered that house, there were a pretty large number of people in the living room sitting on the couches and on chairs that were behind the living room and in front of the kitchen, as well as people sitting at a bar in the kitchen. They were all chatting and I began chatting with them about various topics.
The thing that hasn't been consistent about it is the people living there, other than that they are supposed to be black. There are various numbers of others there as well, most of the time, but usually it is just them. I have never been anywhere like it in real life so I have honestly no clue where it came from. There is a large entranceway with grass and hedges outside, the entire setting looking quite futuristic and modern. The first floor is an enormous single room, including a pool, kitchen, living room, and various other spaces which haven't been encountered in any of my dreams with it so far. The living room has a large, flat-screen TV in its center with three couches about 10 or more feet away from it arranged in a rectangular pattern. Further back within the room is a pool, where the floor steps down by about 4"/10cm and then the pool is about 5'/1.5m deep and about the size of a normal backyard pool. However, the entire pool is inside. The kitchen is to the right of the pool and is pretty standard, although following the modern aesthetic and is full of space and glass on everything.
Soon, when evening was starting to fall, Henri called the house and needed help. He was stuck in an enormous amount of floodwater from the rainstorm that was currently going on, cold. The weather by that time was about 10C with light rain. He was at Rural & Baseline which in my dream was near the coastline, as Phoenix was a much wetter place for some reason and most of the east valley didn't exist. And so, Mr. Labrador said something like, "Alright everyone, let's load in and go get him." And so people slowly loaded in, taking their time with their conversations, and more people kept deciding to come with as Henri was waiting in a flooded area with no help. Everyone was also putting on coats and warmer clothes and whatnot, adding to the length of time it was taking. For some reason I got caught up in doing that as well, putting on my lighter one and then my thicker one over it, but my thicker one was much softer and nicer to the touch than the real one.
Eventually I decided "screw this" after about five minutes of waiting for everyone to finally decide they wanted to come with and those who didn't want to come with to make up their damn minds. I began running towards Rural & Baseline (which is to the east of me for disoriented folks), but the slick sidewalks made it difficult to run properly, and the infamous slow running of dreams overtook me. Eventually that got sorted out and I ran at a normal speed, probably as I got more adjusted to the slick sidewalks.
I finally reached somewhere closer to Rural & Baseline, but instead of going to the destination where Henri was likely to be, I got taken to the south by an overflowing river in the area. I got out of the river on the northern bank, it being very dark, cold, and wet there. The region was quite swampy and I came upon somewhere that I thought Henri was, and so I went down into a hole and found a very, very deep wooden structure made of cheap plywood that seemed to go nearly a mile down. The sheets of plywood were about 15'/4.5m apart each and were on opposite sides of the tunnel, making it take a great deal of time to swim through.
I kept swimming down it until I reached the bottom. The bottom had a very evil theme and kept telling me that I would never make it back out of there before drowning. As I went back up, there was something I hadn't noticed on my way down into the blackness (it was still supernaturally lit): on the bottom of every plywood, there was a message to me that tried to tear me down or was otherwise extremely creepy and made me not want to continue. Many of the messages told me things like "You cannot escape." "I will kill all Christians." and other such things. By a miracle, I did not drown in that horrifying tunnel and managed to escape.
I again got carried away and went to the north, looking for Henri the whole way. I was deep within the forests to the east of McClintock between there and the sea, looking everywhere that I could for him. However, these were hills without much floodwaters on them and so where he was didn't match where I was. I soon gave up looking for him there and finally went back to Rural & Baseline to find that he was sitting on the sidewalk looking like a lost puppy, soaking wet. The bus arrived quickly, before I could reach him and take him back to the mansion. Behind there was an enormous lake that wasn't normally there when it was dry. It seemed that he had gotten stuck in there and possibly also the river that was overflowing as well. Henri was only wearing what appeared to be either swimshorts or cortos atleticos.
Mr. Labrador got out and took him in the bus and sat him next to Gabe. He looked like a frozen block of ice, and just writing about it kinda makes me feel bad for him even though it was in a dream. I also loaded in the bus, similarly soaked, but people didn't care about me for some reason. On the way back to the mansion Gabe was holding Henri and rubbing him to warm him up so he didn't die of hypothermia or something. Once we got back to the mansion, everyone loaded out and was again in the bottom room on the first floor. Henri was being taken care of somewhere within the house, being returned to normal temperature and given clothes as he seemed to have lost most of his somewhere along the way. I never saw him on the bottom floor of the mansion for some reason. By this time it was even colder and still raining outside, still nighttime, although due to dream lighting the time was somewhat ambiguous.
