Shared dream

I began the WILD process this morning, but could not be bothered finishing it off. Basically I instead went to sleep to try have a normal DILD, at one point I see myself in hypnagogic state and can tell a dream is forming around me. I simply let it form using my mind to pull me in, like for a WILD and ended up in a very realistic dream in my Dad's living room. The touch, feel and general presence were that I was actually there, knew I was dreaming and in a way that was way ahead of any lucid dream I have ever had. I start doing things - masturbation, invited friends around who invited girls around. Upon waking I originally thought it was an accidental WILD but I then remembered being in a previous dream (or maybe an earlier part of the dream) where I was showing off magic without realising I was dreaming. I am unsure if it was a different dream (in which case the lucid was a DEILD) or if the magic was part of same dream and the hypnagogic state was then an opportunity given to not escape a dream, which I then took.

What stood out: shared dream
