Opposite of the Insomnia Meme...



The Bedtime Meme

In the great green room, there is a telephone and a red balloon, and a picture of
The cow jumping over the moon,
And there were three little bears sitting on chairs,
And two little kittens and a pair of mittens,
And a little toyhouse and a toy mouse,
And a comb and a brush and bowl full of mush,
And a quiet old lady who was whispering "hush".



WHAT TO DO:

1. Post with your character--name, fandom and any particular preferences go in the subject line as usual.

2. You can either roll or pick a scenario (or scenarios!) from the list or leave your comment blank.

3. Reply to people!

4. Have fun and be mindful of your partner's preferences--while this is not inherently a smut meme, it could definitely turn that way.

OPTIONS:

1. Washing up for Bed: You and your partner have had a long day, and now it's time to wash it all off. Don't forget to scrub behind your ears!

2. Bedtime Story: Some people just can't get to sleep without some sort of story. It can be a familiar book, or even a story of your partner's life.

3. Warm Milk and Cookies (or Chamomile Tea): A warm drink and a few cookies in the belly are just what some people need to relax before bed.

4. Pajamas: What (if anything) you wear to bed says a lot about your personality. Dressed to impress or totally relaxed?

5. Lullaby: Philomel with melody or rock-a-bye baby? Either way, you're looking to lull your partner into a restful sleep with the sound of your voice.

6. Goodnight Kiss: Nothing says 'sweet dreams' like a chaste (...or not so chaste...) kiss at bedtime.

7. Comfort Object: Whether it's a nightlight, a teddy bear or an old blankie, bedtime's not happening unless the comfort object is in the room.

8. Cuddles Forever: The ultimate in fluffy warm coziness before falling asleep.

9. Reluctant Sleeper: Your blankets are itchy. The room's too hot. You want another story. Whatever the reason, you're not ready to settle in and go to bed.

10. Wildcard!: I know I forgot something, so here's your wildcard for whatever else you can fit into this meme, and any mix-and-matching you want to do

( she is the reluctant sleeper, for sure. technically she does still need rest, just not as much as the average person. can mix and match any of these prompts! )

[Assumed CR is good! Our characters just getting to know each other could also be arranged. Can pull from basically any canon point. Romance with castmates only if you play a non-Roland adult; open to everyone else 18+ for romance; open to everyone for gen.]

Food is a great comfort for Maxwell, after having become more acquainted with the blink-and-you'll-die-of-hunger rules of the Constant. So bringing a few warm cups of tea and a bag of biscuits to bed is the done thing.

Except there's only one bed. And Maxwell is a much better hand at sharing, these days.

"Do you like tea before bed?" It's also raining outside, which is nice. Adds to the ambiance, when you're in a building instead of a leaky assed tent.

As her guest in Enchancia, after a fashion, Cedric had volunteered to put Maxwell specifically up in her tower if she'd like. Feeling a bit more appreciated, and more than a bit happier, and Cedric too no longer completely balks at the idea of sharing her private sanctum -- at least not with someone she gets along with surprisingly well, and as a fellow sorceress, Maxwell certainly deserves a sorceress's tower.

"Hmm?" Cedric is still surprised by the offer, though -- she has only rarely ever called any of the staff up to her tower for anything, and when Wormwood was here he obviously never offered her food or drink, so this is new. "Oh-- yes, thank you. What kind?" Presumably something like lavender, chamomile... Did she still have magnolia? She must do, and even if not, they surely had some in the kitchens.

[Rath sleeps in a sarcophagus so it's probably your character's bedtime. Unless they want to hang out around a big gold Egyptian coffin, that's good too.]

[...she sleeps? Apparently. She's probably bad at it, though. Maybe your player is telling her to go the fuck to bed because she's been up for days straight reading.]
