  1. I dreamt of running away from the boy who insulted me and acted like I didn’t do enough or wasn’t trying hard enough when I did everything for the mission so I ran from the parking lot into the woods it was my first time on oddsquad I suppose we were spys and then I howled with what looked like a wolf at first then a hyena raised me and I had a dad and a big brother I slowly taught them how to talk, and they learned to like cheetos as I taught them about chips and warned them art stuff would choke them in end I found my dream dad not real and was with him and told him about my new parent and he was a bit nervous but tryed to except them for me. When wolf became in the light it was orange like with stripes and slight spots then skin was brown again with stripes.

  2. I would just like to point out a small typo. I believe towards the end of the spotted hyena dream interpretation it says “cubes” and the intention is “cubs”.
    Wonderfully detailed analysis, thank you.
