In this one I'm working at some strange compound. A whole lot of stuff happens that I don't remember, but ultimately I was at the entrance to the compound in a little booth, performing some task. I'm approached by an older woman whom I know to be married. She's been here on her own and is distraught over something. I comfort her, and coyly invites me to her room (I understand this to be sexual proposition). To get there, I must crawl across a wooden platform outside beside a courtyard surrounded by rooms. The whole platform is thickly blanketed in spiderwebs, and as I try to get across, I can hear two people laughing recounting the exact number of spiders they released to that spot, and wondering if I'll survive. I make it through, and enter the lady's room. She starts touching me and speaking in a heavy sort of voice. I worry she's expecting me to make some sort of move. She starts kissing me a lot before pushing me over on to the bed and sitting beside me. She beckons for me to kiss her more. It feels fine, but I feel disconnected from it, and I say that I'm sorry, I probably can't have sex because I'm in a relationship (and I have no sense of whether this was actually true in the dream). She sighs and immediately falls asleep where hse sits. I look up and splayed on the cough is a naked young woman whose body seems to be that of an actual doll. IE perfectly smooth and slightly reflective oddly rigid skin reminiscent of plastic, deep seams in spots where her joints articulate, lack of genitalia. I identify her as a doll/robot/artificial lifeform who works with me, and I retroactively place her as having been with me throughout the events of the dream, or at least the events I recall. She says "what do we do now?" And then I wake up.
