Note: So my dream last night was heavily influenced by Bioshock. While I wasn't playing it last night, I was watching and being a backseat driver while my roommate was playing it. The look and feel turned darker towards the end and I could bound and navigate more game style.
My description will be very jumbled and I will likely jump back and forth as I try to recall the order of events.
Most of my memories of last night's dream took place in San Francisco(sorta) at or around some hotel on the water front. I went to this hotel with my grandparents. It was very pretty, upscale but a little small. The ceilings were not tall, the rooms not too big. It had an old feel to it. We hung out and did family stuff.
Cut to later in the dream(I'm sure stuff happened but I don't remember)-
I'm back at the hotel and it is rather run down and there is a large marching band staying there. Lots of people in navy colored band uniforms. I went to check out the room I had stayed in earlier and almost tripped over a carrying case for a large instrument.
I went back to the hotel specifically because I heard that Truant was in town and I wanted to visit, now as I was looking for him I think I saw him near the hotel's restaurant or something.
Left of the hotel-
The area no longer looks like it is near an ocean. It looks more like a rundown back area of a town with lots of trees and shacks. I'm jumping around from building to building, being careful not to touch whatever glowing blue stuff is on/near/under the rooftops. There are also some spikes that I have to be careful not to land on.
So, I get to the place where Truant is staying. Oddly it is not at the hotel... though it should be, apparently my brain mixed that up. His place is a mess. There are children's toys, a large TV, clothes, a table, and other stuff around. I asked him how long he was staying and I think he said January! I don't even know why he was staying there, but his parents were helping to pay for the place.
I get a call that Ambu is in town. (in the dream I pictured her being "in town" as being near my old place in Sacramento) Us being in San Francisco and her being in Sacramento seems to not matter... it's "in town". I asked Truant if he wanted to join us and he says sure. I have to run back to my hotel room and get some socks... I am apparently sockless and the hotel room is still mine(?) So we get there and I put on some fuzzy dark pink socks and over them some netted light blue socks that were very loose knit and had holes. Truant mocked my lightly but it made sense to me at the time!
I don't think we ever met up with Ambu but I cannot recall when or where the dream ended.
