Have you ever had a strange dream about ASOIAF?

[gunder]

Well hello all, this is my first post here. I'm on my third re-read of the series now. I'm trying to take it pretty slow so I can catch onto all the small details that I've missed before. I'm spending a lot more time then I should thinking about the series which is I'm sure the cause for my dream.

This dream does contain somewhat of a spoiler so if you haven't read the whole series yet, you might want to skip this post.

I was in some castle and I was running away from Hodor and Bran. Not the same lovable Hodor and Bran that we know. Bran had permanently taken over Hodors body, but it seems that both of their minds were in there fighting for control and as a result they had gone a bit crazy. The Hodor that was chasing me was was wearing torn up clothing, slobbering and gibbering like an idiot. In the basket on his back was the dead, slightly decomposed, forgotten body that Bran used to occupy.

I'm only in the first book on this re-read so I have no idea why I'm thinking of Brans warg abilities yet haha.

Anyway, pleasure to meet all of you.

Welcome, gunder!

I have also had ASOIAF dreams. I can't remember any of them right now but you're definitely not alone. I like your added detail of Bran's decomposed body still riding around on Hodor's back. Nice dream .

Yes, ASOIAF... seems to recall dreams... yes... the scent of blood and the fresh warm kill, but I'm larger than my brothers and sisters, so they just stare longingly whilst I feast. I must eat quickly before the man scent returns... ... ...

Welcome, Gunder.

Hahahaha

I have one a bit worse. A now ex girlfriend asked me one morning rather jealously, "Who is Jaime?" I said "What?" Her "Who is she?"

Apparently I'd mumbled something about Mr Lannister in my sleep, I was 2 chapters from finishing Feast at the time.

[DeannaBelle]

Weasel, I fear to know what kind of dream you had about Jaime exactly... Muttering his name in your sleep.

Yes, I have dreams about everything under the sun, especially about stuff I read.

On a side note, I pronouce "Jaime" in the Spanish way. I think it's sounds sexier on our Lannister, a blonde guy with green eyes and a Spanish-sounding name. Kind of exotic. It's hard for me to remember that everyone else hears "Jamie" when they read it. I think "Hai-me" sounds more like a night and "Jamie" sounds more like the spoiled brat Joffrey was. Which I think tells us something.

Something tells me that Jaime would not appreciate being called "Hai-me". Sounds, well, if you like Enrique Iglesias, I guess you could dream about his golden hand

[DeannaBelle]

Ugh! No, I do not picture him as a blonde Enrique Iglesias... Inglesias?

I prefer my own pronunciation. I usally try to picture and hear things the way the author indended them (with the appropriate accent and such), but sometimes my initial decision about a pronunciation is so strong that I can't shake it. Nor do I want to.

I have had a dream of ASOIAF but I dont remember it. ASOIAF is so good it is the first series of books i have ever dreamed about. Other authors: Tolkien, Brooks, Jordan, Mccaffrey, Anthony, and a few others have never inspired a dream of their worlds. except GRRM

[Boaz]

Ani, Wow, I never realized I've never had a dream about Middle-earth. Oh, now I'm sad. I did have a nightmare about Shanarra once... Now I'm depressed.

[Boaz]

I finally had a dream about ASOIAF the other night... well, sort of...

I was a teenager again... back in high school... a big school, mayhaps seven thousand students...

The big man on campus happened to be Jaime Lannister all dressed in oxford button down and khakis... Cersei was captain of the cheerleaders...

Jaime (quarterback and captain of the football team) and I (the other stud athlete at school) kept trying to have a discussion about how best to win the upcoming game on Friday night, but Cersei kept running up and interrupting us. She wanted to know who we were playing, when Jaime was driving her to the mall, which outfits the cheerleaders should wear, how she was going to tell on Tyrion for spying on her...

I ended up walking away disgusted...

Weird.

[Boaz]

Hey, that seemed like the only normal part of the dream!

I kept waiting for an ASOIAF dream of knights and glory... and this is what I got.

[Kalhaven]

Wierd. I have always pronounced it "Hai-me" as well. Didn't even think that it might be "Jamie". Huh, learn something new everyday I guess.

[Ghost of Harrenhal]

I will always pronounce it JAME. It just sounds so much more noble-sounding than Jamie and Hai-me.

I've had a dream with ASOAIF characters in them but they weren't actually ASOIAF dreams. I was in a massive gym with a two story box about 20 feet in all dimensions in the centre. On the walls of the box, only on the second floor, there were shapes cut into the plastic with a few people I knew, including my girlfriend, standing in them with their arms ready to catch things. Around me (I was on the ground floor, outside this bizarre box) were beanbags resembling the different shapes cut into the walls as well as Cersei Lanister, Eddard Stark and Oberyn Martell. Me and the ASOIAF crew looked at each other, shrugged and then started tossing the beanbags into the appropriately shaped holes in the walls of the box, with my friends catching them. Once all the beanbags were in the box and had gone through their appropriate cutouts, I went on to make out with one of the people I knew inside the box (a barbie-like girl with massive melons and bleached blonde hair, not my girlfriend) And I don't even like this girl!

When I woke up, I was quite disturbed by what I had dreamt..
