This is very good!! I suffer Insomnia as well and for me the thing that makes me brain circle non stop is quotes from books or movies and then when is reeeeaaaaaaaaaaalllly late at nigth (or early morning but that's not something we admit :)) the songs pop in. I fucking hate don't you step on my blue suede shoes, fucking Elvis keeping me up and then singing the damn song all day..*sigh*
I really love how Jon needs Stephen and he's there, he understand (kinda) and wants to help and that's soo sweet.
I'm no happy and grinning like a sleep deprived idiot so, Thank you..you rock!

I'm no happy and grinning like a sleep deprived idiot so, Thank you..you rock!-->THAT SHOULD BE I'm NOW happy and grinning like a sleep deprived idiot so, Thank you..you rock!..stupid brain *blushes*

For me, it's usually the refrain of some obnoxious musical or like... the chorus of "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite" by the Beatles. Lord, I had that song stuck in my head all during my finals week and I almost shot myself in the face.

No worries, sleep deprivation makes my brain do ridiculous things. Like write cracked-out stories.

[foureyedsnail]

if I were to be honest with myself, I would just admit it’s morning but no. It’s not morning because that would make sleep futile and I’ll be damned if I let another night go to waste.

Awesome description, so his voice!

As someone who had "Maoz Tzur" (why? WHY? Hebrew isn't even a catchy language!) stuck in her damn head for like two fucking hours last night, this has to be the best story ever. XP

I gasp out something to the effect of “you are so incredibly gay that it almost hurts my brain,” only less coherent and more laughing than actual words.

haha! <3 <3 <3 Stephen knowing obscure facts about shitty musicals makes my morning. So cute!

You win at life. I would like to have this story's babies. They would be adorable babies with my duck feet and its lovely well-turned phrases.

[smilesawakeyou]

"Maoz Tzur"??? Seriously???? That is so beyond awesome. I may have to use that in the next installment. Jon is le Jew after all.

I tend to more get the bad musicals and/or catch-phrases from tv shows. Which is random and makes me feel insane in the membrane.

Stephen + shitty musical facts = OTP. No lie.

And I give my story to you in holy matrimony. The duck-feeted babies would be precious and all would indeed coo over the glory that they are. I would be a proud grandmother of such metaphorical offspring.

[foureyedsnail]

Yep, seriously--I just learned the words (it's the first Hanukkah we've actually pseudo-celebrated; our Jewish roots are deeply repressed, haha), and I have boundless enthusiasm. :P

Insane in the membrane = <3

*huggles eloquent little progeny* My mother will be so pleased that I procreated after all. XP

[smilesawakeyou]

Eh, at least you have something to repress. The closest I've come to being Jewish is telling my mom that I was going to convert. I'm pretty much the whitest of the white-bread protestant upbringing Suburbia can provide. Yaaay.

My mom may be less pleased that she's already the great-grandmother of something that was produced from a being made asexually by myself and is only half-human. Though she may think it's a sign of me settling down? I have no idea if those last couple of sentences made any sense whatsoever. Conan is tre distracting.

[morningsedge]

My favourite line:- It’s a stupid thing to get all gushy about, but what can ya do.

Love it, would like to see how it plays out too =)
Bravo!

[smilesawakeyou]

Uh... we'll see what happens? I like pretending that my own indecision is really just me being enigmatic.

Thanks for the feedback!

[heidi_wiggin]

This is fantastic! I do hope you continue it. I like it's funny, dark, edgy-edgeness, and how well you have Jon's voice. It's amazing

So, to me, in my delusional, Bacon-induced delirium, I remain convinced that it is really just super-late at night and maybe if I hold out just a tiny bit longer, sweet sleep shall be mine and Footloose will be cursed back into whatever swirly vortex of doom from whence it came." This has got to be one of the funniest sentences I've ever read. Ever.

"Stephen once told me that I apparently wanted to live in a black and white movie. Something to do with me secretly jonesing for James Dean."
I love the whole section on his grey shirts, it's a facinating little detail that really sets the mood and Jon's frame of mind.

Please please PLEASE do a second part!

[smilesawakeyou]

The gray shirt thing was really random actually. I wrote that he was playing with his sleeve, which then brought on the recurrent question I have as to why every time I see him in street clothes they're gray. So uh... that's what I worked out?

Haha I like using archaic language like "whence". And I use the word "doom" way more than is normal. Fo' rizzle.

I basically wrote it as I think Jon would think, which is consequently very similar to how I myself think. I just used "think" a lot. Oh well. Hehe, the "edgy-edgeness" is how I rooooll. Thanks for the feedback!

[heidi_wiggin]

You and Jon must be long lost siblings then! ;)

[smilesawakeyou]

That makes my inappropriate crush on him all the more creepy.
