Dream 9: Queer cartoons in a movie
The dream was completely like a cartoon. Everything was fully animated rotoscoping. A woman with bob-length blonde hair was at a community centre talking to a man at a desk. She wanted to know if there were any queer-related events she could go to.
He mentioned that there was a queer cruise, but she didn't feel comfortable enough. The woman agreed to go to a movie night at a theatre. The woman decides to sit in the front row because there's no other room for her to sit anywhere else. She's nervous and anxious looking around behind her. In the second row of the theatre is a row of children eating popcorn, dangling their legs on the seats.
In the back of the theatre is a busy queer/lesbian woman who also has blonde hair. She is wearing a grey suit, and she's talking on a cellphone, as if she just came from work. She's wearing sunglasses. On the phone she says, "Yes, there's nowhere for me to sit now, so I'll have to go to the second row."
She comes to the second row, and the woman in the front row and the second row lock eyes for a second. The woman in the front row nervously turns around. The woman in the front row looks like a stay-at-home mom who is still trying to discover herself. The business woman sits near the kids, but the kids aren't hers. She's in some way related to the family.
She takes off her sunglasses, and pulls her hair up into a high 80's looking ponytail with a big scunchie. She unbuttons her jacket, and sits cross-legged, and crosses her arms across her chest. The blonde mom, keeps looking back at the woman, and the woman smiles, and slowly leans forward.
Off to the right, one of the moms of the kids says in a half loud whisper that she shouldn't be flirting with that woman.
The business woman looks at the blonde mom who's turned around, says, "Oh she's still" and moves her hands back and forth as if to motion still in the closet.
The blonde mother is nervous, turns around anxiously and stares at the screen for the rest of the movie. She wants to like the blonde business woman, but she can't let herself. Her lip quivers in the blueish light of the screen which reflects across her white animated face.
