Hah. Don't tell me it's so foul you're getting nightmares. And don't tell me you never watched her dance and wanted to join her?
Not sensitive. I try to observe. It seems to me most relationships involve some sort of balance. Even if two people are very similar, they will work to provide something the other does not have.
I am not saying that. They are usually good dreams that turn bad only at the end or otherwise bad dreams that are still somehow good. And of course I would have liked to join her. I have many such regrets now.
Not at all. A person can become so self-sufficient they forget how to need things from others. And then of course the other becomes so desperate to provide the one needful thing to the person who seems to be beyond everything. Even worse when that other does not know how to provide what other people need. But I think he identified the pattern before I did. And he was away most of the year. [...] Why do you ask?
You are being very cryptic about these dreams. Usually when people are evasive about a topic they keep mentioning, they want to have their meaning coaxed out of them. But I don't think that's what you want.
Ah. No. Just my observations of other people's experiences, not my own. [...] Most people who form connections share similarities. People like what is familiar, seeing a bit of themselves in another face. From what I've seen.
WHAT ARE YOU DREAMING ABOUT, WOMAN [...] Are you dreaming about things that happened to you? I mean whatever happened to you before you came to Lundegaard.
I once thought so, when you first arrived at Lundegaard. But then I realized they mask deep difference.
Sometimes, yes. But lately I have been dreaming about things that have never happened to me. And you are always there. Maybe it is only that I am sleeping in your bed and so I am thinking of you before I fall asleep. I do not know.
Alright. […] I guess that is what I think too then.
No. […] When I said you should take my house, I said so because the idea of you being uncomfortable bothered me. But I think I may have instead made us both uncomfortable.

It is the same with me. I am not sure. I never really learned. But you are right about my mother. She is a beautiful dancer.
I do not think you are being nonsensical. Are you sensitive to the idea of balance?

Was it like that with you and your father?

I thought maybe you were speaking about him when you referred to two very similar people, since you said you were alike.

Do you not think we share similarities, you and I?

Be so careful. Say one inadvertent double entendre and Maggie will skin me alive.[…] […] Aha. What am I doing in these dreams?DM, 11/7, early morning

[…] Anyway. We will get our assignment today. We should begin our day and complete preparations here in Lundegaard.
DM, 11/7, early morning
When we get back from our assignments, I will find another place to stay. Thank you, John. For the chocolate and for everything.
