@dimittere asked: does your muse snore? sleeptalk? sleepwalk?, thing(s) your muse thinks about before falling asleep, is your muse a fitful or a quiet sleeper?
Sen does not snore. She might mumble every now and then, especially during vivid dreams, but no full-blown speech, and she definitely never sleepwalks. This is especially true if she is underwater.
As said previously, Sen otherwise sleeps soundly. She is not kept awake by guilt or regrets (anymore). Extreme agitation is the exception, especially if the balance of her life has been upset in one way or another. (And now that I think about it, she probably slept a bit lighter when on ships to which she was new on). Since her recent arrival here, she’s probably been sleeping less soundly (and probably less often tbh) because of the major adjustments that have been needed to cope with life in the modern world. To put it shortly, she’s really not happy to have that major element of freedom taken away.
But... It took her a while to be able to sleep soundly, especially after escaping from captivity. She had been unable to sleep well, if at all, while there, due to a number of reasons. Torture, distrust, discomfort, pain, despair... The list goes on. It started to get better afterwards, but once the man who helped her escape was killed because of her, it was back to square one. It’s been thirteen years since then, and I would say that for about five or six of those, she consistently had difficulty sleeping.
