Batman & Poison Ivy Dream

Okay, I admit I've been a little obsessed with the Batman/Superman fandom, but this one is still weird.

I was Poison Ivy and for some reason I was causing trouble again. I think. I don't remember if I actually had a reason for it. But, of course Batman showed up. He usually does whenever Ivy wants to cause mayhem. So, needless to say I wasn't surprised when he dropped down out of a tree. I was surprised, however, to learn he was there after a bomb rather than me, and needed my help.

The bomb had somehow been planted (no pun intended; these are my words now, not those from the dream...I don't remember the exact words Batman used) in one of my special plants. To save the rest of my plants and myself (to say nothing of the rest of Gotham) I would have to destroy one of my plants so Batman could get at the bomb and disarm it.

I agreed and began to dismantle the plant in question, but it took too long and by the time most of the bomb was uncovered it was about to go off. Batman pulled me away from it and moved us a good distance away and we both threw ourselves onto the ground.

At first, Batman was beside me, but I pulled his arm a bit toward me. He got the hint and apparently thought it was a good enough idea to comply. After all, my reasoning -- though I did not share it -- was that he was a man, a hero, and the only one of us with armor on the majority of his outfit and therefore the majority of his body.

He got mostly on top of me to shield me from the anticipated blast and I pulled his cape more over myself as well. But, as minutes ticked by nothing happened. Finally, I said the only words I actually remember perfectly.

"I think your bomb is a dud."

A few moments of just feeling relieved we were alive (and also that the rest of my plants were safe as far as I was concerned, and that Gotham was still intact as far as Batman was probably concerned...although he never articulated it) and the scene changed.

It was still related to the same dream, though. Batman was still there, I was still Ivy. I think we both decided to go after whoever had planted the bomb (although probably for different reasons). I'm not sure, because I don't remember any of that portion of the dream beyond why we were suddenly in a giant factory. I don't even remember what was supposed to be manufactured there, if anything.

I think the message of this dream, unlike most of my other dreams, seems to be pretty clear if you ask me. I'm way too obsessed with DC, Batman, and Superman. True, Superman wasn't there and the only DC characters that I remember being there are Poison Ivy and Batman. But, still. ;)
