In this dream, which was decidedly odd I was in a sailing boat. I (along with a few companions were hunting for something. Mum was with me. We either get caught by pirates, or call into a small port because suddenly we are in this camp. The leader is fat (has a huge Budda belly and wears gauzy flimsy (belly dancing style) clothes in reds and oranges and yellows. He tries to sell his daughter to one of the crew of the ship as a wife (apparently I am the ship captain’s bound wife – I have shackles on). We fail in whatever we were doing and decide to head home. My ‘husband’ needs a bath. We both get in. There’s a lot of oily stuff coming off him – it’s like a thick yellow grease. He won’t let me take my bra off but otherwise we are naked. Then after the bath (nothing sexual happened) – probably a good thing – my mind is IDing him as Catenni (Anne McCaffrey Freedom books) – and they are big and grey and it was probably set off by the Jack in Irons from the latest Merry Gentry book which I read recently which has a similar description. So we decide to head home. There’s a HUGE tropical storm blowing down the route we want to go (we were being raced last time and took a different route). So we stop for food. There is a fast food place in town – we make a huge order for the ships’ crew – cheeseburgers and fries etc…we haggle the price and then the dream faded.
