My lucids are pretty rare lately. but i do seem to have a knack for intending to dream with/of people i want.
With certain people i will give them a thought and think of them no more just before bed. or i will imagine i'm already in a dream with them. i imagine EVERY detail possible as if i'm there at that moment. What feelings/convo's/event/colors etc are going on. Now i have never had the exact dream later on but i will usually have a dream of the person or a similar theme.
What you guys call setting up intent for dreaming a hypnotist might call making effort to affect the sub concious. 21 repetitions, not 21 minutes,days, years BUT repetitions of the same excercise and the sub concious will have it memorised. Your sub concious doesn't care about your hopes/wishes/feeling it only responds to the effort you put towards it.
i'm fairly stubborn so it sometimes takes more repetitions for me.
