"These are but fleeting fantasies..."

Oh goddess... another very, very strange dream last night. This one scary. Actually this one didn't happen till my sailor crawled into bed with me at some strange hour of the morning
In London, running around with a crazy friend (called Lola?) and some ice cream in a cup... mint chocolate chip. The green kind.
Friend disappears... looking for the friend... drop ice cream.
Find friend sitting on the edge of (old fountain?) at a university.. fountain bowl is filled with leaves, and there's a statue I can't see.
Other friends (from college! Conan and Carrie) wandering around.
Accosted by two men with a torch who are very thoroughly insane, talk about lighting us on fire, talk about what father would want... then run into two men who tried to rob us with antique pistols earlier (suddenly back in... what, 20s England?) and they chase the men off.
Running, trying to hide from the two men.
Men chasing around the university grounds, unhorsed, talking about/looking for their father
(Calling the two men "Rum packs" or "Rump packets" for "Punk rampant")
Turns out their 'father' is the horse
Hiding with three children in a lantern as sirens wail.
Guards (beefeaters?) run around, along with constables.
3 children (girl and 2 boys) hide in lantern with me and a lady and someone else
Lantern starts to move, three children speculates what it is, girl says "No you bleedin' idiots, it's the bobbing lantern of St. James."
Beefeater says to follow the bobbing lantern of st james.
Points to the moon.
Get out of the lantern and it turns handsized and follow it.
And then I woke up. Terrified. And beelined down here to write that all down before I forgot it.
I'm going to go collapse and try to recover now.
