So I had this dream where me, my little brother and my little sister were all on this huge cruise ship. And we were playing on the bottom deck, which was empty, basically a long, dimly lit room with no walls or anything, just a few pillars and machines on the walls. We were given free reign since nobody was there to yell at us so we were running around being chaotic basically. And we were playing ‘battle’ where we were generals fighting in a war, and somehow my brother got dynamite and we had the absolutely fucking brilliant idea to blow it up for fun. So my brother puts it by a wall, I am the oldest and bravest and also I’m fucking depressed so I volunteer to light it, then I just run like hell over to the other side of the ship where my brother and sister are. It blows up and we all are excited but then we realize we blew a hole in the motherfuckin ship and we’re like ‘well, shit,’ and I’m immediately like ‘guys we have to get out of here the ship’s gonna sink, we can’t patch a hole that big in time!’ Long story short I drag them off the boat and everyone gets off into the water. We’re kind of close to a dock so me and my brother and sister agree to swim there. That’s when we notice all of the passengers, who don’t know and who are trapped on the boat titanic-style. Only all of the passengers are ducks. But like, they are on a cruise like a person. I remember seeing one duck trying to save his wife and kids and the wife was like “quack quack!” and my sister was like “omg” and I was like, “what” and she said “I know how to speak duck, he’s telling his wife he loves her” and me and my brother and sister are crying but internally I’m wtf-ing. All the ducks end up drowning, idk how since ducks can swim but apparently these couldn’t. Even tho the dock was right there. Afterwards the media was blowing up. I remember going onto tumblr and seeing people saying stuff like “death penalty to whoever killed those poor innocent ducks ;-;” and “this wasn’t an ‘accident’ we all know somebody targeted those passengers. They deserved so much better. Remember them always” and I even saw a comic someone made about the ducks drowning in the bottom rooms, it was sad and at the end it said “whoever did this needs to be tried for manslaughter, this was murder.” I told my brother and sister not to tell anyone and I was freaking out. Then my grandma came up to us and started asking us how we escaped, etc. and I remember thinking that she was onto us. Then the dream ended. I remember feeling guilty but at the same time going, “they’re just ducks??? Why didn’t they swim tho???”
