Dreamy Fireflies

Ever wondered in utter fascination at the Harry Potter movies? (Yes, we all have,) but April is talking of how Professor Dumbledore extracts particularly important memories from his head with his wand and stores it in that liquid-y basin so he can save them forever there, and retrieve them when that particular thought is needed for the future.

Recall that? Well good, save it for reference now. April will get to that in a little.

While prepping up for university this morning, April Twelving was wondering how truly amazing and great it would be if something similar to that of what Professor Dumbledore does exists in the real world, but for dreams and not memories. April has a rather wondrous talent of forgetting things way too much. When dreams so good appear once in a while, when she would want to relive them one time too many, she would catch herself feeling the empty air breezing past her on realizing that she has forgotten that beautiful figment of imagination.

Though dreams are just what the heart or mind would have sub-consciously obsessed about, a dream whether good or bad is worth cherishing--and storing.

If only April Twelving could wake in the morning fresh from a dream or two, without matter of whether she recalls the dreams (or even recalls that she dreamt at all for that matter), and if a little brilliant firefly or two shoots out from the side of her forehead (without causing pain, unlike what Dumbledore's painful expression relays) (well, of course the side of the forehead is what April would want as she's only seen the memories extracted from there...like you, too), materialize themselves into little yellow pill-like (tablet-like. Not the iPad-ones, but the medicinal pills) which would be easy for storing them.

April could then re-live the dreams to no end, lest she lives only within the dreams--which is quite dangerous.
