Submarines

A subset of the much bigger list of ship dreams. I've construed "submarine" broadly: Adorable Cyborgs is about a subterrene, a vessel that can burrow underground as well as underwater, and does both in the course of the dream.

For English speakers, dreaming of a sub (unless you actually serve on one!) usually involves a pun. Subconscious, subliminal, submission, sub sandwich, sub rosa... subpar? Something's happening under the surface! And if you're on a sub mission, who or what is your submission to?

RELATED TOPICS: subliminal dreams - underwater dreams - swimming - ships & boats - wrecks - breathe! (drowning dreams) - today's unknown sea: space and starships! - See also the full INDEX OF SUBJECTS.
