The science of Cute

I had this dream last night about tongari's boy. I woke up and wrote these words and phrases in my notebook: Hwei's boy, river/pool, swimming, questions, cute dog, "the science of cute," infantile mammal, wearing powder, "pure skin", other people, dead bugs, really cute kitten/spider, Emily eating dead bugs...

I remember the dream, and I have to document it here so that Hwei can have a giggle at it.

So I'm swimming around in this thing that's like a man-made river with a waterfall at one end of it, when all of a sudden I see one of the boys from Hwei's favorite band, W-inds. And I remember thinking, "which one is that? That's got to be the tall one." (For the record, I don't know who's tall or short in that band, or anything. I only know of them from Hwei.) Then I decided that it must be Ryohei.

So he's wading waist-deep in the water and carrying around this little pomeranian dog. (I saw the movie To Die For last night, which featured this dog, so that's where that came from. And might I also add that, to date, I've seen seven of Joaquin's movies. He is imprisoned in some way in five of them, trembles violently in six of them, is sexually helpless or vulnerable in four of them, and cries in each and every one of them. WTF dude, he is so hard to watch sometimes; I feel like a voyeur. But I digress.)

Ryohei is wading around in this river, wearing a red and gold dressing gown and carrying a pomeranian dog in his arms, and he's smiling superbright. So I dive underwater, swim over to him, surface and say, "You're Hwei's boy!" and he just nods and keeps smiling. In my notebook after I'd woken up, I'd written the word "questions," and I remember that he asked a lot of questions, but I don't remember what they were now.

I mentioned that his dog was cute and he said, "He's cute as a defense mechanism; he's an infantile mammal." And I said, "Yeah, that's true. It's the science of cute, it makes the older mammals want to protect him." (Could my subconscious have been talking about Hwei's boy and my latest crush? Is my subconscious that frigged up and does it think I'm that obtuse? I hope not.)

Then he asked me to look at his face closely to see if I thought it was obvious that he was wearing powder. I asked him why he liked to wear powder on his face, and he said that he always did when he went swimming; it was better for his complexion or something like that. I said, "that's not a bad idea, with all the chlorine and god knows what else in the water," and he said, "Well you don't have to worry about things like that; you have very clear and pure skin." (Subconscious says: That's what a friend/crush/dearest of dears told me once, and he's been on my mind a lot lately.)

Then all of a sudden there were a lot of other people swimming around in this little pool/river thingie, and Ryohei had put the dog down in this cubicle next to the pool, so he wouldn't run off. I started looking around for Hwei, because I knew she would want to meet him. All these people were asking him about the robe he was wearing and he said, "it's all part of my Dragon Lady Madame Butterfly act." (Note: "Dragon Lady Madame Butterfly act" is a line from the English dub of Petshop Of Horrors, which I watched on the plane with my goddaughter a few weeks ago.

Then I went to pick up the dog, and there were all these dead bugs all over him. They looked like lice or mites do under the microscope, only big, like the size of flies. I was like, "Oh my god, parasites! He's going to have to have a Mitaban dip!" but then I realized that the bugs were all already dead, and I thought, "that's not good, because something in the water killed them all." Then I looked down on the ground (the water was magically gone by this time,) and this evil cockatiel that we have at work (Emily) was eating all these huge dead lice and beetles.

So now the water's all gone, and we're all standing around in this river bed, what used to be the swimming place. All of a sudden this little spider goes scurrying by and everyone starts to scream, except for Ryohei, who's still just sort of smiling at everyone. One of the girls who was standing by him tried to step on it, and it curled up into a ball to try to save itself. I yelled "Noooo, don't kill it, it's so CUTE!" and started clearing a path for it. It kept scurrying, and then it saw Emily and it ran over to her, and started chewing on her leg. When it did that, its tail went up, and then I sort of flicked it away from her and I noticed that it was really more like an eight-legged kitten, with kitten fur and big cat eyes and the tail. Everyone started screaming again, and I told them to just let it do what it had to do. Then it looked at me all adorable-like and scurried away some more. Then it stopped to bite something else, and I shooed it away again. It walked away past Ryohei, who was smiling at it as it went by because it was just so cute, and it went into this cave that the waterfall had been covering up.

And then I woke up! How freaking bizarre is that?
