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 (note the name and fandom in the subject).
• 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. |

[britt takes her seat on the swing and wraps her hands around the chains. she likes that the seat is all warm for her. she spins sideways a little in the swing as she waits and watches santana.
she doesn't really know what she's going to do. to go from being used to talking to someone every day, almost all day with texts and school, to that person moving away...it's just too much.]
no subject
Which they totally will. Right?
Santana waits until Brittany slows down a little before wrapping her arms around her shoulders from behind. She presses her face against the side of Brittany's neck]
You should be coming with me.
no subject
I wish I could.
no subject
Screw McKinley. Come with me anyway.
[They both know she can't do that, but it's a nice dream.]
no subject
What would we do?
no subject
You could hide in my dorm room, or we can use the money my mom gave me.
[She sighs against her neck] Go to New York. Go anywhere we want.
no subject
New York. You could be a star and I'll open a rehab center for pets.
no subject
Sounds perfect.

no subject
How about...two? And they can join their school glee club instead?
that icon. so perfect.
Okay. Two. One boy and one girl. And they'll be the best at glee, and she can be a cheerleader like us.
i know, right!
You can teach them to dance, and I can teach them to go all Lima Heights on anyone who gives them a hard time. [She jokes with a grin]
loving this, btw
a long time down in the future.
she tilts her head up so she can look at santana]
And we'll be happy and together, right?
same :3
Santana gives Brittany a lopsided grin, running one of her hands down Brittany's arm to lace their fingers together]
Duh.
XD
Come on, I have an idea.
[and if santana let's her she'll be running and pulling santana with her]
no subject
[Santana makes sure she doesn't fall over the swing before letting herself be dragged to..wherever..by Brittany]
What idea? [she tries to think of where Brittany's leading her to with a laugh.] Where are we going, B?
no subject
[she leads the way to where the slides are and where kids can climb and run around, and takes them to the highest platform. she tilts her head back]
Look, we can see the stars.
[then she sits down]
no subject
So, this is your idea? To look at the stars? [She's genuinely curious. Why did they have to run?]
no subject
[because. she was excited? best not to question the things brittany does.
she does wrap her arm around santana's shoulders though and pulls her in close]
no subject
Beautiful.
[She's still staring at Brittany. Sure, it's cheesy, but right now Santana doesn't give a damn.]
no subject
It will be like that movie. About the mice. We can both look up at the sky and know that we're seeing the same sky.
no subject
She rests her head further on Brittany's shoulder, and sighs]
no subject
Don't be sad. We'll be okay.
Right?
[she pulls up to look over at her]
no subject
[Santana doesn't hesitate to answer. If there's one thing she's sure about, it's them.
She pulls Brittany back down and presses her lips against her jaw]
We'll be fine.
no subject
Nothing can stop us.
[then brittany turns just so to catch the kiss on her lips]
