Red Eyes

2013-03-14

Last night's dream was short and simple. Actually, there were two dreams, but I can't remember one of them so I'll just write about the other.

In it, my sister and I lived in a house or apartment or something. Our relationship was a bit different from what it is now, and closer to what it was when we were teenagers or early 20-somethings. Not much was different, really, but I just sort of got that vibe from the dream.

Anyway, she had a friend over to stay the night for some reason. As is sometimes the case, I was sniffing around her friend because she was cute and hey, I'm a guy and I'm allowed to want what I can't have. I was showing her some pictures (or drawings, or something) while my sister was off in a different room of the house, and she seemed unusually entertained by this. In fact, she seemed unusually interested in me as well.

Not in any way that indicated she might act on this interest, of course, but the looks she gave me were more than glances and they lingered for a while. Her face was close to mine and she seemed to want to maintain her gaze for as long as possible -- she seemed to find something about my face very intriguing.

Eventually, my sister drug her off and I was left to my own devices. At this point I went to the bathroom to... do bathroom stuff, and caught a look at myself in the mirror. Suddenly, it all made sense.

I looked roughly the same as I do in real life, only my eyes were very different. They were dry and sore, and the whites were tinted red as if I was very, very high. Even more interesting were the pupils: They were blood red. Literally blood red, as if each pupil was a small, swirling pool of blood affixed to the center of the eye. The effect was very demonic and I couldn't tear myself away from my reflection for the rest of the dream.
