A Little Nightmare I Had...
A Little Nightmare I had...
This is a recall of a dream I had last summer (2022) I believe? There are gaps in my memory, practically because of the one-year gap, but also because I do not recall the section of the dream at all. I'll tell you about it regardless.
The dream starts off with the nightmare kids (Six, Mono, Runaway, Raincoat) who are trying to escape a dark, lightless city filled with shadow monsters. There was also this... grandma(?), similar to The Lady/Geisha, who kept chasing us, trying to capture us. While we were being chased, we came across a dock and got into one of the boats. Runaway and Raincoat started the boat up while me and Mono kept look out. We escape into the waters, but the grandma follows us into the water. While we fled, a monster, what I recall being a giant baby/doll with an animal face, emerges from the water and tries to eat us, before getting injured or something, and crashing onto The Grandma. The two get into a fight and we escape deeper into the black water.
Then there was a big gap in my memory
After the gap was another section of the dream. It took place in a forest-area, similar to the beginning of the second LN game. There was this event going on where the townspeople of the woods would gather about in a clearing to... hang clothing??? This was just done out in the middle of nowhere and some people had guns for some reason. For whatever reason, we tried to cross the field. We had to sneak under each bit of clothing while it was up on the clotheslines- we were just not allowed to pass if the clothing was in front of our face. While in the process, one of us stepped on the clothing by accident, and a gunshot sounded. Shortly afterwards, the gunmen started to shoot at us.
While dodging the bullets and pushing past the clothing, we got to the end of the field where there's just this... dirt-mound piled up to look like a anthill, but with children-sized holes, perfect for us to slip through and possibly fall underground. We quickly enter the little holes slid into a new section. I remember it being really weird because the tunnel rounded back to the start I think, and there were these huge, ugly hands that kept trying to grab us. I remember Mono (or Runaway), who went in first, literally stop his sliding to prevent us from sliding straight into the hands of the gunmen.
We did eventually get caught and then we were knocked out. Later, I remember waking up in a cell. Looking out from the bars I could see the rest of the room. The room we were in was like an office, but underground. Clearly underground. Half the walls were stone and the rest were smooth, ugly-stained marble walls. On said marble walls were framed pictures of pinned insects like dragonflies and butterflies. On the wall to my right was this large steel door, and beside that door was a desk that was parallel to our cell. I remember there being a black-"leather" sofa-chair behind the desk. I don't know why I remember that but whatever I guess. On the desk sat piles of papers on it and a big birdcage, a bird cage that contained Mono, if I remember correctly. He didn't have his mask on which was strange because (in the context of the dream) he had a really big issue with his face, he just hated it and absolutely could not stand just having his face out and about.
Apparently, our captors, who were-- I kid you not-- dressed in nun-like clothing (this was far before TSON so that was... weird-- explains why I got mass amounts of deja vu), were trying to... do something to us? But since Mono woke up first and had ooga booga magic, he made a compromise with our captors. Apparently, he promised to be their little lab rat, do everything they told him to do, so they could conduct tests on him. He was literally forced to stay in his own little hell just so we wouldn't get hurt or something of the sorts.
I (Six) woke up when the captors were "talking" to/threatening Mono. After the captors left, they left via the steel door. It clicked shut and there was a electric-sound I guess? Like... the beep of a smart lock or something, idk. Mono, despite the threat being gone, did not talk a lot, which is unusual to me. I kinda put two and two together and asked Mono if he was alright.
Six: "Hey... Mono, are you alright?" Mono: "Huh? Oh... yeah." Six: "...You sure? It doesn't sound like it..." Mono: silence Six: "You don't have to do any of that. We can get out of here soon, it'll be okay." Mono: "No, no, it's fine. I'll be okay. Everything will be fine."
He smiled really awkwardly at me, turned away quickly, and I woke up shortly after that.
My brain was fr really goofy back then. I had vivid-ish dreams quite often. They've disappeared ever since school started so... that's great... (this isn't the first time this happened. I had vivid dreams when I was younger, there was a 4-year gap where I didn't dream. It was because school was taking up more of my life. I think the same thing is happening again so weee ✨✨✨)
Aight. That's all I have to say. Goodbye o/

Something I decided was in NEED of drawing/concepting tonight at work: Season of the Unknown.
(Only name I could think of for a Over the Garden Wall themed season. PLEASE let me know if it's already taken!)
From Greg, you get: an emote (not sure what he'd teach you; he has SOOOO many expressions), the teapot hat for his elephant costume, Rock Facts Rock (probably just a decorative prop), frog plush (sits on your Sky Kid's head instead of back when not in use, and makes a OtGW frog croak/sound when hugged instead of a squeak), his overalls (sorry; shoes are not separate), and, I was thinking, a music sheet for one of his songs. Hard to pick between Potatoes and Molasses and Adelaide's House Parade.
Happy anniversary Little nightmares 2
MORE LITTLE AKUMU STUFF (NO WAY DUDE!! FINALLY!!)
SPOILERS FOR LITTLE NIGHTMARES AND OMORI!
.

Hi. Okay so... um... Here in this post, I wanna talk about which role would fit each Nightmare Kid, simply because I desperately need to organise my thoughts about this AU-
Let's start off with Raincoat!! Okay, Raincoat, she gives off big-sister vibes-- and let's be real, she probably is a sister figure to Six and the rest of the crew. In Very Little Nightmares, she fell to her death because Six failed to kill The Pretender. Oh boy, death by falling because of someone else's mistake? Hmmm, sure sounds familiar… *stares at Mari* So yea! Raincoat will be the "Mari" of the Little Akumu AU! She'll also be the Something, in a sense. Her death will probably haunt Six forever.
SPEAKING OF SIX-- Let's talk about her! Six will be the Sunny of this AU. Not only is she probably extremely mentally ill, but she's also responsible (in one way or another) of quite a few deaths/life-ruinings! Most notably, the "murder" of Raincoat! She'll be forever haunted by all of her actions! Also, I'd like to mention one of the two commonly accepted fanons where Six is the "quiet girl who doesn't say shit", I mean… that checks out as Sunny-behavior right??? And since I can, we can totally just have Shadow Six represent the Somethings! I'm so good at this /lhj Plus she's the implied main character of the LN franchise so--
Moving onto a different topic... you know how like… Mono is Six's bestie… and you know how Basil was Sunny's bestie? Yea, Mono is Basil. I already rambled about the uncanny parallels between the two characters in the previous post (cough cough, besties until one of them left after unfortunate event, the gosh dang dialogue, literally being abandoned by their bestie and having their mental health spiral because of that abandonment, cough cough) ALSO-- Mono will probably be stored away in the AU's equivalent of "Blackspace", not because he had much to do with Raincoat's death, but because he left in a very similar way Raincoat did. And since the brain loves seeing patterns…. I think it's safe to assume that Mono would just not have a nice time.
Moving on, I feel like talking about Runaway!! The Little Akumu Runaway will be based heavily on my RK Headcanons where he's a loud asshole idiot (/aff)-- and you know who else is a loud idiot? KEL!! Runaway will be the Kel of this AU!! Yippee!! I don't really have many reasonings for this role? All I can say is that everyone, including Roku (The OMORI/Six) and Alone hate his guts.
Speaking of Alone, Alone's just gonna be Aubrey. I just imagine both of them to be like... really strong. That's the only reason I have honestly.
Low will be Hero because that's the last and final slot that needs to be filled. I legit have no reason for this other than the fact that Low feels like a older brother person idk dude. Also, I think it'd be amusing if Low is one of the only people who can make Runaway shut the hell up effortlessly, yk?
Aight, that's all I have to say. Buh bye. I might make another post in the near future featuring all of the concept art/doodles of Little Akumu, I just need to MS Paint-ify it.
Okay bye fr now.
NEW AU IDEA JUST DROPPED!!
SPOILERS FOR BOTH GAMES (but I'm sure you guys are chill with it, right?
.

For those who don't know me, I absolutely ADORE Little Nightmares and OMORI. They're both such silly games and I love them both dearly... so what if... I combine them? Best of both worlds am I rite?!
I do remember seeing something similar, where Mono took the role of Sunny with a Headspace and such-- But what if Six took up Sunny's role and Mono took up Basil's? (and Mari's too I guess but shhh)
Not only were both Six and Mono best friends before an unfortunate event that tore the two a part, just like Sunny and Basil, but like-- One of my friends pointed out that Mono can totally pull off being a Stranger/Headspace Basil in Six's hypothetical headspace. Like... LOOK AT THESE LINES IN THE BLACKSPACE ROOM--
"I just... I waited so long for you to come back, SUNNY... but... you never did."
THAT. MONO WOULD TOTALLY WAIT FOR SIX IN THE TOWER BUT WE ALL KNOW THAT SHE NEVER DOES COME BACK--
"Even seeing you now... It's hard to think straight. I can feel my heart hurting and I want to cover my face and hide."
Mono covers his face, he of course he'd feel hurt. And of course he can't think straight because he's bi-- /hj /hj IT IS JUST-- IT IS JUST HHHHHHH
Okay that's all I can think of regarding Mono-Basil stuff. Anyways have this thing that I drew for this thing. Ignore that I used Hero's expressions instead of Basil's shhhh
I might call this AU idea "Little Akumu" Tell me what you think of it :D
i did an over the garden wall screencap redraw cause y’know, it’s fall
