> Naptime

[cursedandalone]

[Red's managed to find a non-snow-covered place on the edge of the CMA for a nice lie-down. He's making full use of it, taking a good long nap. Long meaning about six hours.

He needs it, anyway. He's had several things on his mind lately, besides the normal angsty thoughts. Various things that have not gone as expected and various people he's met

[Well, he probably needs the sleep.]

[Instead, she'll just sit beside him and hopefully make sure he has a peaceful rest and not just...freeze.]

[cursedandalone]

[And it will be another hour before he wakes up. He doesn't move while he sleeps, apart from the slow in-out, in-out of his breathing.

When he wakes, his eyes just open. Still no moving. He's a little confused as to where he is and what's going on, as is often the case when waking from unintentional naps. He blinks slowly a few times, getting his thoughts back in order.]

[dragons_healer]

[As long as she's breathing, that's good enough for her.]

Good morning.

[cursedandalone]

[He headtilts and looks up at you. It's probably pretty obvious his paranoia's gotten worse since you saw him last, and that he's had a lot on his mind. He'll give you a few more slow blinks, and nod a "Good Morning" back.]

[stalkerwithacap]

[Well this one's been wondering how you were doing, especially with all the recent mess, so he'll just- sit next to you and wait for a bit]

[cursedandalone]

[Doin' pretty good, if a little too thinky for his own good. He managed to not even notice the whole bit with Team Rocket, actually. Until the gigantic explosion. But he's been a good boy and hasn't gotten into any big trouble.

A it is, he'll be sleeping another hour if nothing is done.

Wake him up?
> YES
> NO]

[stalkerwithacap]

[Yes.
Well, kinda. Just giving a small nudge to see if it'll work]

[cursedandalone]

[Sleeping like a log. A rougher shake woulda woken him, but. Zzzzzz.

... Ok, unless you wake him up before then, he'll sleep a full hour more, not moving the entire time, and then wake up. Him waking up means his eyes open and he blinks slowly a couple times. Where the what now who the huh? Unexpected naps leave jumbled thoughts behind.]

[Takumi here sits down next to him, then starts to read a book.

The title? The Simpsons Forever! Don't mind him snickering to himself while he reads it.]

[cursedandalone]

[And in one hour, your 19-year-old black-wearing counterpart will wake! He didn't move once the whole time he was asleep. When he wakes, he just blinks slowly a few times, his thoughts scrambled by the unexpected nap.]

[trnrwithglasses]

[Heh, this one's a funny episode. He chuckles a few times, not noticing that his counterpart is awake.]

[cursedandalone]

[After a few minutes, said counterpart will sit up, blinking blearily. Nope, hasn't noticed his counterpart yet. Because there is important business to attend to: reasserting his hat into it's proper place.]

[scratchnforget]

[Holy sleeping doubles Batman! ...at least he's not in the snow this time. Except, it's still cold out, you know.

Well time to keep him company by wordlessly sitting next to him. RED will just wait patiently until he wakes up.]

[cursedandalone]

[Yep, no freezing for him today.

An hour later, without having moved at all, Red wakes up, slowly opening his eyes and blinking a couple times. Dang those thought-scattering unexpected naps!]

[scratchnforget]

Did you sleep well?

[He'll smile faintly. Despite it looking vaguely creepy but whatever.]

[cursedandalone]

[Nod, apparently. Though he probably looks about 50% more paranoid than the last time you saw him. Hey, he's met some people who were not-so-nice conversation partners.

Creepy has no effect on Red, at least?]
