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?

• 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.

WHAT THE HELL.........
She doesn't move away, because as far as she's concerned in her supremely stubborn brain this is like a game of chicken now. Even if she's finding it very difficult to look back at him without an awkward, slightly pained expression on her face.
Tsukuyo huffs. ]
That... Sounds like a huge waste of time to me.
[ She really doesn't get it, him and his ridiculous, froufrou, flirty ways - are women supposed to like this? Does anyone enjoy this? Obviously some people do or he wouldn't be such a ridiculous bed hopper.
Even just the notion of anyone even thinking she's beautiful makes her feel weird. When she sees herself as a scarred warrior with no sense of womanhood left in her.
Also, she's totally not answering his question but hey, deflection. Always deflection. ]

[He presses a very soft kiss to her forehead-what a difficult women, but he adores her for it. In the strangest possible way, he's always happy on the rare occasions she joins him in bed over any other tourist he sways along the way home.]
It's only me and you and nowhere to be. You won't lose anything from hearing it.

[ Difficult - like he's not a huge pain in the ass himself.
Despite her words, Tsukuyo does let her eyes close briefly when he presses that kiss to her forehead. When she opens them again, she's looking him in the eye, wilful as ever. ]
Say what ya want. It's not goin' to affect me either way.
