2. SICKNESS. You're sick and laid up in bed, at home or in a hospital. The severity is up to you.
3. FEAR/ANXIETY. Something is happening and you're scared beyond belief.
4. LOSS OF SENSES. Sight, touch, taste, hearing, smell, etc. You've lost some important sense or ability and now you're left to deal with it.
5. DESPAIR. Nothing is good or right anymore and you can't shake the depression. Maybe that friend of yours can help though...

7. MAKE UP. Fight or break up, it's time to makeup.
8. RESCUED. You've just been held captive and/or tortured for however long and finally, someone has come to the rescue.

10. LOSS. You've experience a loss of some kind and need help getting through it.
11. INSANITY. You're seeing things that aren't really there, hearing voices, or you're just convinced you're at your wit's end finally and you're going to crack. Maybe someone can give you a helping hand.
12. TIRED. You've had a heard life recently and you're just worn too thin to really care anymore. There's no fight left in you anymore. Can someone help change your mind?

14. INSOMNIA. You can't sleep anymore, no matter how hard you try. Maybe someone can give you company.
15. NIGHTMARES. Or, on the other end of the spectrum, you can't sleep without gruesome, horrible nightmares. Either someone is stuck in your dream with you, witnessing it or they're just waking you up, soothing you out of it.
16. BLACKMAIL. You've been caught doing something you shouldn't and you were blackmailed because of it

19. STRANDED. You've been stranded somewhere remote, with no help of anyone finding you for awhile. Can you survive this together?
20. SINS. You're feeling the weight of your sins and guilt clearer than ever. Can someone give you absolution or lessen the ache any?
21. SECRET. It's difficult having to keep that secret of yours, be it a relationship or something you just don't want to share with anybody else. Maybe it's okay to talk about it now though...
22. ADDITION. Babies should be joyous things unless you're in a situation where you know you won't be able to care for them. Either you've adopted or found out you're pregnant.

When he went into the bathroom, she got up and made them coffee before getting out some bowls, spoons and the cereal.

[gcpd]

He came out fifteen minutes later dressed in his uniform. It annoyed him to see her already up. "You need sleep," he said with more charge than usual.

[inyourdreams]

"I'm fine," she said as she poured them each some coffee. She was surprised she slept as long as she did.

[gcpd]

He shook his head. "Don't think I haven't notice, okay? I know it's been getting harder for you to fall and stay asleep. I know it's because of the somnacin."

[inyourdreams]

She sighed.

"Yes, it's one of the side-effects," she said. "But it's probably only because I just got off a job. I'm sure my sleeping pattern will get back to normal eventually."

[gcpd]

He looked at her critically but didn't say anything. He took his bowl and coffee and went to sit on the couch.

[inyourdreams]

"Don't look at me like that," she said. "You hardly ever get enough sleep with working all day and being out half the night."

She sat down with her coffee but didn't pour herself any cereal.

[gcpd]

"I'm not the one putting strange chemicals into my body," he pointed out.

[inyourdreams]

"No. You're the one dressing up like a bat and trying to take down dangerous criminals alone," she said.

[gcpd]

"And what would you have me do, huh? Stop? This city needs Batman," he said. And not more criminals like her.

[inyourdreams]

"And what would you have me do then?" she asked. She couldn't stop building. She loved it too much.

[gcpd]

"I don't why see you can't just be a legit architect," he said.

[inyourdreams]

"Because you have no idea what it's like down there," she said. "What it's like to build whatever you want with no laws of reality holding you back. What it's like to build whole cities with your mind."

[gcpd]

"And none of it lasts," he said. "Don't you want that? To design something that lasts?"

[inyourdreams]

"I'm doing both," she said.

[gcpd]

"we'll I'd wish you just stop with the dream share," he mumbled as he turned back to his bowl.

[inyourdreams]

"Yeah, I noticed," she said.

[gcpd]

He sighed and finished up his cereal. "I have a half day today so I'm coming home at four instead of seven." He got up and went to put his bowl in the sink while finishing his coffee.

[inyourdreams]

"Okay," she said, "Let me know you schedule for next week so I can start booking appointments to look at places."

[gcpd]

He nodded and then put on his shoes. He went over to give her a goodbye kiss. "You know I'm only saying this because I love you."

[inyourdreams]

"I know," she said. "But we're both going to have to live with the fact that we have somewhat dangerous jobs. For now, anyway."

[gcpd]

He sighed and nodded. John went to put on his heavy coat. "I love you," he said before leaving.

[inyourdreams]

"I love you, too," she said. "Have a good day at work."

[gcpd]

He nodded and then closed the door behind him.

[inyourdreams]

She ate some cereal before getting ready for the day, ignoring the dark circles under her eyes in the mirror. She went and ran some errands, picking up groceries before she came back and checked her email to find another job offer. She left the email for now, so she could think it over.
