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?

• 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.

Okay, that's a good point.

[He starts taking smallish clumps out of the mixed dough to place on the cookie sheet. He might need another one with this amount of dough.]

You trolls ever have cookies where you're from? 'Cause I'm gonna be sorely disappointed if you've never had caramel chocolate chip cookies before.

[ Terezi snakes her hands around him to steal the dough off the cookie sheet. Don't worry, only one sheet will be enough at this rate. ] I can assure you, I've never had Strider cookies. Which makes all the difference.

[Dave moves the cookie sheet out of her reach.]

They're chock full of ironic deliciousness. Dunno how they compare to Dadbert's bakin', though.

[ nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. There are a few vain reaches for the dough, but then she gives up. Because yawning is more important. ]

Sir Dadbert's baked confectionery goods have nothing on the coolness scale of anything you create. Perhaps they might taste better, but they do nothing for your self image.

Haha, okay, good point.

[Dave puts the sheet in the oven and sets the timer. He gets out a smaller cookie sheet to put the rest of the dough on, and puts it in the oven as well.]

You can lick the bowl if you want.

[ whoops her TONGUE IS ALREADY THERE. her whole face for that matter.

I hope you don't fall asleep in that. It'd be kinda awkward if your face got stuck to the bowl.

[ She peeks above the bowl, dough on her nose, cheeks, and some in her hair. ]

I'll fall asleep after my promised feast. [ Terezi tosses the bowl behind her and goes after the spoon with all the grace of a chainsaw. ]
