Low Energy
Survivors x Sleepy!Reader Headcanons
Summary: How the Suvivors are like when you're sleep deprived.
Dear audience, I have to say that although this can be seen as platonic or romantic, it's mostly platonic-leaning. And make sure to check out the Killer version if you haven't already!
Let's get on with it, shall we?

Noob
"O–Oh.. Are you.. Doing okay..?"
One of the first to notice you stumbling around in the cabin
Often glances at you from across the cabin, wincing if you ever bumped into something
Would offer you a hand and nudge you to sit down somewhere to rest
"U–Um, please sit down, I don't want you to pass out and hurt your head..!"
Will help you get around places around the cabin, but mostly ones where you can sit down and rest
Definitely goes and brings you an extra blanket to make you more comfortable and able to sleep
If you are the type to ramble on low energy, they'd lean in close to listen to what you have to say and respond properly. Though mostly they'd be left confused
If you're in a round in this state, Noob would give you their drink in an attempt to wake you up, but if it doesn't work, they'd lead you to a corner of the map and leave you there to rest while they distract the killer away from you
They'd panic if you collapsed from exhaustion, and would get one of the other survivors to carry you to bed, they'd stay by your side until you woke up
If you leaned against them randomly in this state, they'd tense up for a moment and ask if you're okay, and wonder aloud if now would be a good time to get you to a proper bed
If you fell asleep against them, they'd freeze, and won't move even when their shoulder starts to feel sore. They'd be reminded of Guest 666, and would feel obligated to let you rest on them
007n7
"Hey hey.. You look really tired, maybe you need to sit down.."
Very concerned for your well-being when he saw you bump into a wall twice in a row
Are you not eating enough? Are you stressed? He'd check your temperature after enough of this wondering, and would be relieved to see it's not a fever
Would see you yawn for the 3rd time and decide to take you aside to check up on you, to figure out what's wrong
"Is everything okay? You don't look okay. Did something happen?"
Doesn't mind the silence when you get too tired to speak, though he'd throw you a glance every so often in case you fell asleep
Would tilt his head and give you a look if you start rambling, but he'd nod along like he can understand it, even give his own input when your sentence is coherent enough for one
Lingers around where you are to make sure you're okay, staring a couple times
If you were sent to a round in this state, he'd try to keep you safe by leading you to safety. Trick the killer with his clones, and teleport away with you
He's likely to try to rush and catch you if you were to collapse from exhaustion, he's had to catch c00lkidd more than a couple times whenever he passed out growing up
He'd let you lean on him, guiding your head to rest on his shoulder to prevent you from straining your neck. Might even go as far as to guide you into hugging his arm, but that's only if he felt bold enough for it
If you fell asleep on him, he would readjust you so you'd be more comfortable. And while he might get a couple looks from the others, they'd let it be knowing how tired you were
Elliot
"I'll be honest, you look like you're about to keel over."
He only found out how tired you were after you tried to help out in the kitchen. And his soul almost left his body when you almost stabbed yourself while cutting tomatoes
Needless to say, you're kicked out and banned from the kitchen until you're more awake. He feels bad about it, but reasons that he has to because you could've gotten seriously hurt
He'd take your hand and lead you back to the living room/main cabin anytime you wander too far for his liking, and instead offer to help you with what you needed
"Sorry, I don't want you to hurt yourself.. Tell me what you need and I'll get it for you, okay?"
If he's too busy with things at the cabin, he'd trust Noob to keep an eye on you
Rambling nonsense will make him look at you with concern, and depending on what you say, he'll stay with you the rest of the day
He won't say anything about it, but he thinks it's cute when you start to doze off, only to jolt back awake again. For some reason, it reminds him of how he tried to keep himself awake to watch children's show episode reruns when he was a kid
In a round in this state, Elliot would have a harder time keeping an eye on you, since he's always running around to heal the others. He might leave you with either one of the Survivalists, probably 007n7 if he learned that Noob just leaves you somewhere in the map
"Can I trust you to take care of them?"
"Oh—! Of course! I'll look after them like they're my own kid."
"..." - Elliot narrows his eyes
"Y–You know what I mean.."
He'd be quick to catch you if you collapsed, and very much worried over you while he set you on the couch, he'd check your temperature and everything. And constantly check on you until you wake up
Leaning on him would startle him, but then he'd ask if he should take you back to your bed, so you could actually get to sleep
Falling asleep on him might be nice, he'd glance around to see if anyone else is looking, and if not, he might lean over and give you a kiss on the head. Before getting too flustered by that and carry you to bed
Builderman
"No, yer goin' back to bed."
Only noticed your state when Shedletsky nudged him and made a joke about it
Would not let you step foot into the cabin looking like that
He'd insist on you getting some more sleep, a hand on your shoulder while his voice would become a little softer
"Come on, yer hurtin' yourself like this. No one will be mad, so go sleep, okay?"
Oh you know he's going to insist on it even more if you start rambling nonsense, he's no longer taking no for an answer in this instance
Would actually stand by your door with his arms crossed and a glare to prevent you from trying to ignore your sleeping problem
If it gets so bad that you're still tired even after sleeping, he'd get genuinely worried and wonder if you caught something
If in a round like this, Builderman would go and find you to keep you by his side. He's more likely to put down a dispenser when you're around like this. He hopes it heals you of your sleepiness, it doesn't
Unfortunately wouldn't be able to catch you in time if you do collapse in front of him. He'd feel so much guilt over it as he rushes to pick you up and lay you down on the couch or bed. He'd stay with you until you woke up to check if you're hurt
Leaning on him would make him turn his head to look at you for a moment, then he'd reach up to ruffle your hair, and go back to what he was doing before
If you fell asleep against him, he'd gesture to the other survivors to quiet down. He'd ask one of them to bring a blanket to cover you with, so you wouldn't get sick. He wouldn't move to avoid waking you up, and might fall asleep next to you
Taph
"😟🫵💤⁉️ (Oh no! Did you sleep at all!?)"
Doesn't notice your exhaustion until they overheard it from Shedletsky
Even then, they'd have difficulty trying to help you, since they wouldn't have any frame of reference to work with. They'd approach Builderman and ask what they should do for you
After which they'd bring you blankets and small snacks to help you get comfortable, staying with you
While they're unable to talk much due to how fast you talk and your misinterpretation of their signing, they'd listen to you. They'd end up confused a little by the end of your talk
Either willingly sticks to your side, or leaves you be to rest. No in-between
Doesn't know how else to help, and just hopes this would be enough for you
If in a round, Taph would take you to the corner of the map and just completely surround you in tripwires, bombs, and traps.
Wouldn't be able to catch you when you collapse, and would need to grab one of the other survivors' attention to carry you either to the couch or the bed. They'd be signing apologies to both the person who carried you, and you. Would then shut themself away because of how bad they felt
If you lean on them, they'd freeze, lean back and sneakily hold your hand, squeezing it every so often. You two may have fallen asleep like that, the other survivors thought it cute and wouldn't stop teasing you both about it
Wouldn't do much more than lean their head against yours if you fell asleep on them, they'd see it as bonding
Dusekkar
"Your being has been without rest for some time, might remedies help you reach the desired deep state in a chime?"
Let's be honest, his rhymes are putting you to sleep no matter what he says if he talks long enough
Makes you tea and watches to make sure you don't burn yourself on it, but would refrain from doing this if you're too tired for it
Would logically be the one you're left with because of how calm he is. He'd try to find out what's causing you this amount of sleepiness
"Tell of your ailment that which caused you sway, so we may come to an appropriate action without delay"
Your rambling worries him, especially if you pass random compliments and comments his way
Something that worries him is when you try to do certain things on your own, like physical labor. He'd lightly smack your hand away, and shake his head when you protest his decision
Doesn't trust you to be on your own in this state as a result, so if he needs to do something, he gets one of the other survivors to keep an eye on you, so you wouldn't hurt yourself
In a round like this, Dusekkar would have difficulty keeping focus on both the team's safety and yours, unfortunately, he'd have to leave you with either one of the Supports, or Shedletsky
Because of how much he uses it during rounds, Dusekkar would try to use his shield on you when you collapse, it doesn't work to protect against falls. He'd feel guilty over it as he rushes to you and carrys you to the couch, he'd check for injuries a couple times before Shedletsky has to tell him to take it easy
He wouldn't mind if you lean on him, as long as he doesn't have anything else to do. If he does, he'll gently tap your arm and tell you as such, he'll go do what he needs to do and then come back with a blanket to wrap you in
Given that he gave you a blanket earlier, Dusekkar would give you upwards to 20-30 minutes if you fell asleep on him. But after that he'd have to put down whatever he was working on to take you to bed, whether by using magic or not doesn't matter. He'd leave your cabin soon afterwards, but not without giving a small prayer
"Shall no evil follow you in dreams that make you tear, like they do in this place with no care."
Shedletsky
"Looks like someone missed their beauty sleep!"
He'd poke at you and laugh at your delayed reaction time
But jokes aside, if he sees how tired you really are (Stumbling, slurred speech, and nearly collapsing), that's when he takes things seriously
Despite his silly demeanor, he'd catch onto how tired you are quicker than the others, and would subtly guide you to the couch so you wouldn't hurt yourself when you eventually pass out
"You're gonna need to sit down for this story, it's crazy!"
He'd engage with your rambling half-heartedly, and ask you things about yourself so he could get to know you better. Sometimes he'd nudge and ask your opinion on something, only to ask it again when you're awake to 'compare notes'
Definitely wraps an arm around your shoulder while talking to you
He once checked your heartbeat, and the sound of it being so slow kinda worried him. But it also fascinates him in a way, he'd only admit that when you're on the very edge of sleep though
In a round, he'd basically act as your bodyguard for the duration of it, often casting glances at you to make sure you're still alive and awake
Considering how he'd be keeping an eye on you, he'll see the signs of your passing out, and pick you up like a baby before that could even happen
If you leaned on him, he wouldn't hesitate to pull you in for a hug, petting your hair in the hopes that it'd help you fall asleep, but also partly as an excuse to comfort himself. His wings would hover above you to shield your eyes from the lights
To add to this, if you passed out or fell asleep on him, he'd stretch out his wing to cover you like a blanket. If he could, he would've taken a picture of you like that
Two Time
"Has your sleep been interrupted? Do you need help?"
The first to realize how tired you are
Makes you eat a serving of yesterday's leftovers. Because from their experience, eating a big meal always made them tired enough to fall asleep
However if you're too tired to eat, they'd bring you back to your cabin, and make you recite a prayer in your bed until you fell asleep, holding your hand gently
"Reciting this prayer helps me sleep when I'm unable to, I'm sure it'll help you too."
Your rambling interests them, mostly for a little while as they add their thoughts and passing ideas. They somehow were able to keep you on topic for longer than anyone else has
While not often, they'd slip in something about the Spawn during conversations with you. Would pat your hand to get your attention, except when it looks like you're finally about to sleep
They've had days where people of the Spawn kept them awake to, "Get them closer to Spawn", and they never enjoyed it. So wouldn't be as insistent about the Spawn, since you'll likely forget about it anyway
During a round, they'd try to keep you at a distance so you wouldn't accidentally get hurt by either the killer or them. They'd probably leave you with any of the Supports or Survivalists if you two encountered them
If you collapse, they'd stare at you, think "uh oh" and reach out for you, struggling to support you until they can get you to a couch
While they would lean back if you did it first, they wouldn't do much else, as they wouldn't know what else to do in this situation
Falling asleep on them would make them freeze, but eventually they'd lean their head against yours and rest their eyes. They wouldn't fall asleep however, as you'd need the protection
Guest 1337
"Bud, you don't look okay, did you sleep at all?"
Concerned dad mode activated
Would have a hand on you nearly at all times while you're in the cabin
Because of how close he is, he'd be able to see if anythings wrong, and he'd straight up pick you up if you were on the verge of passing out
"It's okay, you're okay, I've got you, just sleep."
He doesn't particularly pay attention to your rambling, more focused on making sure you're okay, but occasionally nods along with a hum
There are times where he'd reach up and pet your hair for no reason in particular, it brings him back to his days before being Forsaken
He'd encourage you to take more breaks in the hopes of you getting some rest, this mostly happens when he's busy and can't be with you or keep an eye on you. Like he'd point at the couch and ask for you to wait there for him until he's done
Because of his role as a sentinel, he can't afford to leave the killer on their own for you, so while he'd worry, Guest would have to leave you with one of the survivors if you were stuck in a round like this
Like mentioned earlier above, once he catches you before you collapse, he'd take you straight to your cabin to sleep. Where he'd linger just a moment longer by the bed before leaving
Leaning on him would make him tense up, before relaxing when he realizes it's just you. He would tap your arm and gently urge you to go to bed
If you fell asleep against him, he'd let you rest there for a couple minutes before picking you up and taking you back to your cabin. Tucking you into bed like he used to do with his daughter.
Chance
"Ooh.. Sleep is not giving you an easy time there, huh?"
Would kinda stare at you as you trail off mid-sentence, losing track of yourself for the umpteenth time that day. It might be the closest thing to seeing you drunk in this place
Despite their initial worry, they wouldn't show it much, thinking of it as a one-time thing rather than a big deal
If you are the type to tear up when on the verge of sleep or after a yawn, Chance might cup your cheeks and coo at you as he wipes your tears away
"D'awww, you're like a cute sleepy little bunny!"
Chance likes to call you sleepy bunny, and likes to pet and give you headscratches, knowing that you're too tired to mind it much. He thinks it's absolutely adorable if you lean in during those moments, bonus points if that actually gets you to sleep
Your rambling makes you even cuter in their eyes, he'd actually try to keep up a conversation with you in that state, just to see what you would say next
If your bouts of sleepiness continued past a number of times, he'd catch their eyes trailing to you when you're with one of the other survivors, wondering why you're like this, and if you'll ever get out of it
The only time he'd worry about you in this state is if you were in a round. Since there's the very high possibility of you being hurt or killed because of your sleep deprivation. He would recklessly throw themself in front of the killer and shoot them to give you both time to get away, and hand you off to one of the other survivors because he fears he wouldn't be able to protect you
He'd catch you once you dropped to your knees, he'd grow panicked as he held you. Only to calm down upon feeling your heartbeat, they'd take you back to their cabin and put you in their bed. He'd run their hand through your hair a couple times before leaving you to rest
Leaning against them is fine with them, in fact, he encourages it! He brags about it, saying "Looks like someone here needed something a little more comfy, huh?" Would end up letting you rest your head on their lap, with a hand in your hair while the other rests on your arm
Falling asleep on them is both the best and worst thing you can do to them. Best because they'd quiet down and wrap an arm around you, maybe even bring you to their cabin to cuddle if they felt bold enough. Worst because they can't take pictures of you, otherwise their phone wallpaper would've been set to you
