Nightmares and Dreams
Johanna is the only person I know who doesn't have plot dreams. I also have not met anyone else who has my obsessive-compulsive-type dreams. I arrange things in accordance to rules that keep changing. Or I have to solve an equation, or repeat certain phrases until they're perfect. Those are very taxing dreams, and I usually wake up tired.
When I do have plot dreams, they seem to resemble other people's. However, I generally use one of two defense mechanisms whenever a dream takes a wrong turn: (1) I develop superpowers and become invincible or (2) I relive the scene over and over until it is to my liking. Do other people do this?

Yea, I have also gone back and fixed things in dreams. Like for instance I had a dream once where a friend was shot in the head, I figured that sucks, so I went back and changed it to them getting shot in the shins.
