Weird Mountain Cafeteria

So I was in a cafeteria. I don't know if it was a school or what, it looked like most of the people there were young, but some were older. It was more like a conference room or classroom, with long horizontal tables in rows and everyone facing one direction. There was an empty dinner plate in front of each person with napkins but no silverware. So everyone was just sitting there, chatting. I was near the back of the room and in the middle of a row. So then this speaker, along with one or two administrators, I guessed, came to the front of the room and got everyone's attention, because he or she [I didn't get a good look at them or physically hear them] wanted us to try some fun activities. One activity was that they passed out forks to all of us and they wanted us to tap the edge of the table to make music. Everyone seemed okay with this idea, but once we all got the forks, they suddenly decided we should use scissors instead. So they passed out these really nice, brand new fabric scissors. They were red and blue. For some reason I felt it was important what color scissors we got. They were passed around randomly and I got blue. But when we were about to start tapping out a beat on the table, I realized the table was padded and it wouldn't even make a good sound, which was a bummer. Somehow, I knew that this was some other world, not Earth, maybe some other dimension, but it was less culturally advanced than the West. There was this freckled white girl sitting to my right who was my "friend." She was being extremely rude and calling this black girl the n-word, like right to her face, and the girl was just taking it. Naturally, I was very bothered and offended by this. [I'm anti-racist and I'm not white so idk why this racist girl and I were even "friends"]. So I told my "friend" that the word was offensive and to stop saying it. This geeky, skinny kid with only two teeth sitting to her right backed me up on it. Then the room sort of changed; it become a slope, elevated at the back, but it was more cafeteria-like now, with like elementary school cafeteria tables, the kind with the stools attached. Me, the freckled girl, and the kid with two teeth were still at the back, one table away from the back wall. I assumed we were eating, but I didn't really get a good look at the food or plates in front of us. At some point I got into the freckled girl's lap. I don't know why or how. I was sitting backwards, we were chest-to-chest, astride her thigh and my head over her shoulder. It felt really good and I was enjoying it. I think we were having a conversation, I don't know what it was about, and the skinny toothless kid was also involved. The one table behind us against the back wall, which I was now facing, was a few feet away. One guy on the end of the table, parallel to me, I thought was very cute. He had a buzz cut, a short beard and a cute smile. Me and him were kind of eye-flirting while I was on this girl's lap. The girl started bouncing up and down in her seat, and I said something like, "Stop, it looks like I'm riding you!" At which the buzz cut guy smiled shyly. Everything went pretty fast after this. After the meal in the cafeteria, the buzz cut guy asked me out and we went to this arcade/club where we danced. Then we went outside and I realized we were on a mountain, which explained the slope in the cafeteria. My point of view changed and I was seeing the mountain from the side now. The buzz cut guy turned out to be this battle leader named Krampus (or something similar) and we had to protect the village of gnomes on the mountain from attack. So I had to help Krampus (who at some point became quite muscular and fantasy-like) figure out a strategy to defend the mountain. All the paths up the mountain were secured except one small path, on which I posted two purple gnome guards. Krampus was very happy with me and we were about to go on another date, but then I woke up.
