I'm barely sleeping but my brain finds time to do this

[cornerofmadness]

I know the dream was way longer than this. I walk into an auditorium styled classroom that's painted the flat black of theater walls and my students are sitting there in the dark (true story, half the time they WILL sit in the dark if I don't have the lights on in the room). I'm carrying a stack of tests and homework in one arm and Kanda in the other (except he's all black instead of being Holstein and even in the dream I wondered about it).

The tests and homework, however are all mixed up and only part of one is graded. I make the students come down to get it (I also don't turn on the lights) but get flustered half way through it when I realize I've done this already and they've seen this test so I start showing some of the homework. At this point, Kanda jumps down and runs around the room and I ask the students to make sure both doors are shut so he can't get out.

As I'm trying to work the smart podium, Kanda comes back soaking wet and I can't figure out how he managed it. That's when I realize this cat isn't Kanda but another all black cat and with him is a soaking wet ginger cat and there is a stream between me and the students. All three cats go playing in the classroom and one student, a 20-something slightly overweight woman with a blonde pixie cut goes 'I guess it's worth my throat closing over to get a good education' and points to the cats. I feel this weird 'don't report me' feeling and start the class but the homework they gave me was all badly done animation.

I tell them to just go and collect Kanda. Now the lights are on and the only people there are my dad and evil_little_dog. Dad asks, what's wrong with Kanda. I look and most of his fur has thinned out all over his back and you can see black smutty looking stuff. I'm like damn it he has a flea infestation (how is a mystery and even dream self was puzzled) but when I get him in my lap and part his fur it's not fleas. They're huge biting insects that look like reduviid bug. Kanda is covered in them and in a nymph stage. Dad tries to help me get them off of him. Several get on my arm and the bites hurt.

I keep asking ELD to help but she won't even look at us. Instead of giving us Chagas disease (because I knew these bugs didn't just suck blood they carried parasites), when we pulled them off it was like the bug was spitting a white fluid with wormy things into the wounds like a leech would and in the container Dad had to put the bugs in there was blood and things that looked exactly like leeches. Almost all of Kanda's fur was gone by the time we got the impossible task of debugging him done. I was bleeding all over my arm sure I had a parasite and ELD never did help. Then I woke up.

Thanks brain.

that's me, ultimately unhelpful in your dreams.

Apparently so. You wouldn't help poor Kanda

Your dreams seem to paint me as terribly aloof and unwilling to help. PFft.

apparently my brain is a douche

Or your subconscious thinks I am.
