INSOMINA MEME

It happens to everyone - sometimes, you have nights where you just can't fall asleep, no matter what you do. It could be for a number of reasons, or no reason at all. And this is what's happened now: you've been laying in bed for what feels like hours, just tossing and turning, and nothing seems to help. So what's left to do? Get out of bed and go wake someone else up, of course. If you're not getting any sleep, then why should they?

i n s t r u c t i o n s

• Post with your character.
• Other people reply to you by generating a number from 1 to 10.
• Have fun!

o p t i o n s

01 • FEAR. Maybe you're hearing strange, indeterminable noises; maybe there's a severe storm happening outside; maybe you watched a scary movie before bed? Whatever the reason, you're terrified and it's keeping you awake. You just want to wake someone else up so they can protect you from the monster in your closet.
02 • HUNGER. Your stomach is growling and it just won't stop. Or perhaps your throat is so dry you could cough up a tumbleweed? Well, you've gone to the kitchen to remedy this and hey, that was a pan that just dropped on the floor. It was loud enough to wake the dead! Oops.
03 • PAIN. Your body is completely worn out, be it from exercise, battle, sickness, or what have you. Either way you're in enough pain to keep you from sleeping, so maybe someone else has a home remedy or something, or can at least help you take your mind off of it.
04 • SOLITUDE. For some reason, your bed just feels so empty at the moment. You're feeling terribly lonely and really just want someone to keep you company for a while. Maybe it'd be easier to fall asleep if you're with them...
05 • DISCOMFORT. Your room is an oven. Either that or a freezer. Or maybe this bed is just really uncomfortable? Who knows why you can't get to sleep, it feels like it could be anything. Why even bother trying? Maybe someone else can preoccupy you until you feel tired enough to ignore your discomfort.
06 • PENSIVE. Something's on your mind, and no matter how hard you try to focus elsewhere, it's just not going to work. Your body may be tired, but your mind is incredibly busy and it's virtually impossible to get to sleep. Surely, talking it out with someone else will help?
07 • SADNESS. Something terrible has happened that day, perhaps; or you could just be severely depressed. Either way you're trying your hardest not to cry yourself to sleep, and it's not working at all. Better find a way to get it out of your system somehow; you need a shoulder to cry on.
08 • ANGER. You are just... fuming. Who knows why - that annoying dog is barking again, or maybe the people next door are getting busy and keeping you awake. Whatever the reason for your ire is, you'd better put an end to it so you can get some damn rest already! Go wake up a friend so you can complain to them.
09 • RESTLESS. You're far too energetic to sleep right now. Maybe you're just trying to do so out of necessity - you have to be up early tomorrow! But you just don't think you'll be able to fall asleep for a while now, so why waste the time trying to sleep when you could be doing something else? Namely bothering someone else - you're totally jealous because they're getting more sleep than you.
10 • WILDCARD. Choose one of the options above, or make up your own scenario.

Terezi...did something to my room. Couldn't sleep in there.
akapeanut: (You're a stupid fucking stupidhead)

[personal profile] akapeanut 2012-01-13 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Get some headphones. Let me sleep.
usskickass: (Faster than a barefoot jack rabbit)

[personal profile] usskickass 2012-01-13 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Well...yeah.

Do you know what gods are?
usskickass: (Mmmmmhm.)

[personal profile] usskickass 2012-01-13 09:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry. Didn't mean to make you feel worse or anything.

Y'ever try wearing those sleep masks?

7, oh god.

[It's been a long, long night. Kurt can't sleep, but he's not about to go and deliberately wake someone up over it, so he opts to go sit in the hall and mope.

...And maybe cry a little
.]
usskickass: (Don't worry about me)

[personal profile] usskickass 2012-01-13 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah...

I'm just so hungry.
epiccombo: (Focused)

sleepy Santana is cute <3

[He looks at his hands.]

Something kinda...

[He coughs.]

Something kinda scared me.
hamburellakind: (:c)

[personal profile] hamburellakind 2012-01-13 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
You sound weird.
hamburellakind: (Everything will be alright)

[personal profile] hamburellakind 2012-01-13 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[John scoots over and trades his pillow for Dave. Squeeze.]

What're you thinking about?
hamburellakind: (^_^)

[personal profile] hamburellakind 2012-01-13 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[John gets some totally cool sleeping bags out. One is Ghostbusters themed. And it is John's.]

I was playing Mario. I'm trying to do speedthroughs.

[He kinda sucks.]

Why? You wanna play something?
epiccombo: (You're kidding right?)

[personal profile] epiccombo 2012-01-13 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
[Puck smirks at John's sleeping bag. He's not making fun of him; it's a pretty cool one.]

Nice. Yeah, I'm down with that. What else do you have?
epiccombo: (Yeah whatever)

[personal profile] epiccombo 2012-01-13 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
What did she do?

[He rolls his eyes.]

She woke me up, yelling about a party.

[personal profile] urnewkingbitch 2012-01-13 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yeah, they're alike in that way.

Dave is on his way to go do some baking to kill his boredom when he stumbles across Bro.]


Hey, Bro. What's up?
spacetier: (And a moon full of dreams)

[personal profile] spacetier 2012-01-13 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Jade had thought as much. ] What are you making?
spacetier: (kawaii blushu)

[personal profile] spacetier 2012-01-13 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Wow.

This is embarrassing. ]


I thought I could get something without the light on. [ Clearly that didn't work out too well. ]

[personal profile] coolstriderbro 2012-01-13 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shit. The one person he didn't want to run into right now because he's supposed to be indestructible and admitting to pulled muscles doesn't gel with that.]

Not much. Just wanderin'. You?
spacetier: (Is this the place that we used to love?)

[personal profile] spacetier 2012-01-13 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Jade smiles when she sees Katara. How exciting is it to have another night owl? ]

Hi!

10 fuck yes

[personal profile] urnewkingbitch 2012-01-13 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
[Normally, Dave deals with his nightmares by ignoring them and distracting himself before going back to bed. This one, though, almost sends him rushing to the bathroom so that the toilet can be acquainted with what he had last eaten. Luckily, he manages to keep it down.

No comfort baking tonight, he thinks.

The Strider stumbles out into the hall to wander aimlessly, hoping that maybe it'll help keep his mind distracted. But he still feels sick to his stomach.]

[personal profile] urnewkingbitch 2012-01-13 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
nah its ok

hamburellakind: (:()

[personal profile] hamburellakind 2012-01-13 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
the comms picked it up
hamburellakind: (:))

[personal profile] hamburellakind 2012-01-13 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[John's up watching a Nic Cage film. It's hard to tear himself away, but it might be an emergency!]

Oh. Hi Kurt! What's up?

[personal profile] urnewkingbitch 2012-01-13 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
On my way down to the kitchen to see what I can find.

[Dave can kind of tell that something is off, though. He seems a little stiffer than usual.]

Want me to get you anythin' while I'm down there? Or do you wanna join me in bein' a vulture?
hamburellakind: (...)

[personal profile] hamburellakind 2012-01-13 10:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Hrruh, Liv, no, come back...

...Vriska?
hamburellakind: (*snore*)

[personal profile] hamburellakind 2012-01-13 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooookay.

[John floats in and proceeds to collapse on the floor, wincing a little. He brings up a hand to rub at his chest unconsciously.]

[personal profile] urnewkingbitch 2012-01-13 10:43 pm (UTC)(link)
And deprive you of your delicious chocolate drink? That'd be a fuckin' sin.

[But he appreciates the offer.]

Pain killers don't seem to cut it, so maybe I'll just grab some Benedryl and not wake up until dinner time.
