Maybe it is because of how comfortable the car was or something because when I tell you that I was fucking knocked out, I'm pretty sure that Quincy and his sister thought I was dead, if not for periodic checkups and my somewhat loud snoring, I wouldn't be surprised if they thought that they had a corpse in their car. But even as I slept, I could tell it was going to be a long time until we got to her place, so I dreamed of a bizarre encounter with an even stranger woman.
It began when I woke up outside of a library, I knew it was a library because the building in front of me had a sign that said library; it didn't just say library but the original sign was so worn that the only word I could legibly read was library; I observed the building further and it did not look like the building would last any longer but still I felt something to the drawing me to the building. And since I could not describe the feeling I simply decided to go with the flow that was for me to walk inside of the dilapidated building.
When I walked inside the library, I noticed an immediate contrast, the inside was more modern like the ruined outside, but that was the least on my mind as I saw an Asian woman with grey eyes wearing glasses reading a book, I will not lie and say that she was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen, but she wasn't ugly either, she was fine rather pleasing on the eyes you could say but my wandering eyes soon landed on the book she was reading and noticed that there was nothing on the cover.
No, there wasn't anything, there was something there, something so worn by age that I could barely see it, and it was a word, and much to my surprise, the one word I saw was magic, I was surprised because magic wasn't something you expected an Asian to read about, is it racist? Yes absolutely, but did I care? no, I did not.
Realizing that the librarian was so absorbed in her book that she did not know that I was in front of her so I was just going to walk around the library until she said to me.

"Name: Charles Talbot, Gender: Male, Hair Color: Black, Height: 5 feet and 9 inches, Weight: 150 lbs, Race: White, Sexuality: Straight, Religion: None, Home: None, Birthday: January 1st 2007, Welcome to my Library." The Asian woman said listing my various traits as if she was reading them of a government document I was not surprised this was my dream after all and although it was weird that I was telling myself various myself but I did realize what it meant until she spoke again
"Just so you know, I am not a part of your dream. I infiltrated your dreams because I was bored and you were the nearest person available and I must say after being in your head I'm shocked at how empty it is." That's a low blow coming from an Asian but hey I'm not the person whose life is so boring they have to look at people's dreams to find some entertainment I was growing nervous because this woman went into my head and looked into me and recited them as if I had committed some crime.
"If you can believe it, I have no intention to do anything with this information not that there is anything I can do with information about a homeless person" I let her keep talking because she was the person with power here, and anything I said and thought can and would be refuted by whatever she said next.
"I don't have as much power as you think I do, this is your dream after all and I am new to dream exploration so you can just cast me out if you want to right now" I don't trust her as much as I can throw her but if what she said is true then I want her out now but I wanted to do it with a bit of flair.
"Understandable, I wouldn't want someone peeking through my head either, but still from the little I saw, you are interesting, to say the least, and I hope we meet again, see you later Charles Talbot," The woman said before I banished her from my mind with a snap of my fingers in Roy Mustang style, with the gloves and everything too.
After being the dream woman was banished, the library underwent a remarkable transformation into the vibrant city of San Luperto. In this new setting, I found myself engaging in parkour until I abruptly woke up in Quincy's sister's car, just as we reached our intended destination.
