''[[YU+ME: dream]]'' is a webcomic by Megan Rose Gedris and can be found [http://rosalarian.com/yume/ here]. It concluded in 2010.
The fact that nobody wants to give away the plot means that you might prefer to start from [http://rosalarian.com/yume/?p=1 Strip 1] just to be on the safe side. The normal text/hidden text ratio on this whole article really says everything; it may start slow, but then [[Wham! Episode|WHAM!]] Spoilers that nobody dares give away.
Things just aren't going well for Fiona. She has a [[Missing Mom|dead mom]], a father who is always on business, a [[Wicked Stepmother]], no friends at the Catholic high school, and none of the nuns believe that she's being picked on by [[Alpha Bitch|Sarah and Cass]]. So she begins to not pay any attention to anything around her, instead living in her own head in vivid, lucid dreams.
Line 11 ⟶ 10:
Up until the end of issue 9, readers thought this was a case of [[Schoolgirl Lesbians]] living in [[Teen Drama]]. Issue 9 dropped a TON of [[Drama Bomb|drama bombs]].
# Sarah {{spoiler|kisses Fiona/Cass walks in and gets jealous}}
# Fiona gets grounded for admitting to being a lesbian and can't go to the prom.
# Fiona meets {{spoiler|her gay godfather, Richard}} who her parents have been keeping from her.
# {{spoiler|Richard}} tells Fiona some pretty major things about her family that she didn't know/had amnesia about, such as the fact that {{spoiler|her mother committed suicide by getting into a car accident with little Fiona in the car because her father was cheating, with the Wickedstepmother}}
# Fiona decides to go prom and her parental units do not stop her due to #4.
# Fiona faints.
# James has an announcement to make: {{spoiler|Sadako is his new girlfriend}}.
# Fiona faints again and wakes to {{spoiler|Sadako and Lia fighting}}.
# '''The Big One.''' At Fiona's questioning of what's going on, {{spoiler|Sadako}}, Lia, and Don tell her that {{spoiler|everything up until this point was [[All Just a Dream]] and Lia, Jake, Don, etc have all been actors, though Lia gets in that her feelings for Fiona were real}}.
# Fiona {{spoiler|wakes up from a coma, that we find out she caused by trying to commit suicide upon learning that her own mother tried to kill her}}.
Part Two begins with more of an explanation and then Fiona {{spoiler|finds a way back to [[Dream Land]] to search for Lia}}.

* [[Age-Appropriate Angst]] - Young Fiona
* {{spoiler|[[All Just a Dream]]: Mercilessly deconstructed, and then reconstructed. The end of the dream is when the real story begins, and the reader follows Fiona while dealing with the very real psychological effects it had on her. Fiona then decides to try, and succeeds, at getting back to the Dream World to pursue the only happiness she knew, even while being aware that what she will find will be different from the fantasy she lived...}}
