the kind that keeps me up all night

the i n s o m n i a 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?

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.

I trust V as well, but I've found myself questioning his choices the last times I talked to him.
He refuses to accept help.
I trust him, but I worry about him. If he was in trouble, he wouldn't have come to any of us.
And now he's unreachable and has been for months.
He won't approve, but I'm going to hire a detective.

If he didn't come to any of us
he may have been worried about putting this organization in danger with the information...
That's something I can understand.
Whatever V's troubles are
I wonder if a simple detective will be enough.
There are filthy people in this world.
The agency won't like it
but I think I will have to start tracing V.

Understanding doesn't mean we have to be okay with it.
I understand that he wants to protect this organization and us, but I'm not okay with the way he does things on his own.
If you also plan to trace V, I'm sure we'll find him quickly.
I'll find the best detective money can buy.
It won't hurt to have more than one person looking for him.

I'm sure it has something to do with the information in that apartment.
V had me work to exhaustion redoubling the cyber security surrounding it.

I don't want to think about this possibility, but there is no choice.
What will you do about that apartment and the information in it if we don't get in contact with V?

I will continue following V's instructions.
If someone really does try to get into that apartment...
It may provide us with important clues as to V's whereabouts.
There's very little I can do to track someone who hasn't attacked us yet
but to break through the security systems surrounding the apartment
any intruder will have to make themselves vulnerable.
