Them: *creates a social rule surrounding bedtime and doesn't tell me about it but decides I must initiate it for it to happen*
Me: *breaks social rule because I'm hyperfixated on smth and cannot read their mind to know this rule was created*

Us: *stays up much later than needed because I am absorbed into my hyperfixation and they can't move on until this secret ritual is complete*
